How to import <QTH> ADIF field?

[hiroshi-y]

Hi, just started using Cloudlog on the hosted platform, and imported one ADIF file. Here's one example record:
CALL:6JH7GYD<QSO_DATE:8>20250528<TIME_ON:4>0018FREQ:221BAND:315mMODE:3SSB
<RST_SENT:2>59<RST_RCVD:2>59NAME:4HIROQTH:12岩手県釜石市
QSLMSG:32/1 東京都千代田区#100101 PK10-03
COMMENT:32/1 東京都千代田区#100101 PK10-03

This ADIF contains Japanese letters- never mind!

This QTH field QTH:12岩手県釜石市 doesn't appear in the imported log. How can I display one?

Hi @hiroshi-y

You should be able to find QTH field if you edit a QSO it should show in the "QTH" field?

@magicbug Thanks!

This is what I see when I click "Edit QSO". The QTH field is not filled. I think it might be an encoding issue?
Hmm, I think I understand the problem now. When it reads the ADIF, it recognizes the field length by the number here: QTH:12.
But my ADIF only has six letters (岩手県釜石市). I will try to fix ADIF somehow...

This ADIF was generated by Turbo Hamlog, which is the most common logging software in Japan. It only works on Windows; as you can see, it counts one Japanese letter as two letters...

If you can send me the ADIF file I can try figure out whats going wrong :)

Hi, thank you for your support!
Here's what I wanted to do:

1. Import this ADIF file - note that the length field is incorrect due to the app spec. In Japan, some app counts one Japanese letter as two, and some count as 1. 岩手県釜石市 should be six letters long, but this old-type software counts it as 12 letters.
2. Show his QTH in the list
3. Show my QTH (stored in the COMMENT field) in the list

I'm not sure what I can do with this Cloudlog right now, but if it works, I would recommend it to other Japanese users. The most popular app, Turbo Hamlog, is super old and can't be accessed from smartphones or web browsers. Still, it has many Japanese-specific tools (such as address code - QTH lookup and memory functions), and I want to keep using both.

If you can forward your ADIF file to me (use the email address your logins came from) I am sure work can be done to figure it out, think its actually the first time anyone from Japan as mentioned it :)

This is my first time using this discussion board. I think I was able to attach the ADIF file to the above post. Otherwise, please tell me how I can send or upload the file.

BTW thanks for your help!

I completely missed it @hiroshi-y but you managed to upload it to the discussions! I'll take a look over the next couple of days

I compared the QSO details screen with the Advanced Logbook view.
It seems the operator name is correctly ADIF-imported. In the QSO details view, the display is broken.

Is there any way to import QTH from the ADIF file I uploaded?

Uh oh! @hiroshi-y, the image you shared is missing helpful alt text. Check #3281 (comment).

Alt text is an invisible description that helps screen readers describe images to blind or low-vision users. If you are using markdown to display images, add your alt text inside the brackets of the markdown image.
