<SRX> and <STX> fields not imported from ADIF

Hello all,

I've read the posts I could find about this but each seems focused on exotic cases involving exchange fields.

Importing a batch of ADIF records that look like the following, the STX and RTX fields are simply not imported, period. The STX, RTX, and Remarks fields after the import are blank.

NOTE: Hold on. Trying to get this forum to simply print markup code

SECOND NOTE: Well, nevermind. I guess it's impossible to paste an example of an ADIF record here.

THIRD NOTE: I was going to place an image of an ADIF record here, but this forum doesn't seem to support images. Oh well.

Running Version 2.4.0, which is stable and works fine except for a known bug in the QSO list display, which doesn't bother me.

I'm sure there's no fix for the version I'm running. I just wanted to make sure this behavior was reported.

VY 73,
Phil

Hi Phil!

I would like to see that kind of adif STX/RTX that does not import with ver2.5.2.
Second note: write & l t ; for < and & g t ; for > (no spaces between) they are normal html replacement codes.
Third note: below message editing area there are buttons "Choose file" and "Upload" just above the CAPTCHA area. First press button "choose" navigate to your jpg or png image and press upload. You image is included to your message (but no preview)

Okay, gotcha. I was looking for tags to include it as inline code.

NOTE: Interesting that GIF is not an allowed file format. For this kind of image, the run-length encoding of GIF results in a file half the size of PNG.

I couldn't see a way to attach more than one file to a comment, so attached here is the ADIF file itself, the the extension modified to enable uploading.

HI Phil!
You have error in your TLF adif export. That is the reason.
STX and SRX must be numbers (I.E. serial number) See definition: https://adif.org/312/ADIF_312.htm#QSO_Field_SRX

If you put non number (letters and spaces) it must be exported with tags STX_STRING and SRX_STRING.

Open your adi file with text editor and replace all STX to STX_STRING and SRX to SRX_STRING (or do it with sed from command line) and your adif will import fine.

Yes, that was it. I reported

Yes, that was it. I reported the bug to the maintainer of the software that generated the faulty ADIF.

Thank you. Sorry for the trouble.
