adit export fields missing

Hello,

I am running RUMlogNG v3.12.2 and under Preferences>General, I have configured the user defined logging fields 1, 2 and 3.
My primary call sign is VA3CP and I am using VE3LJW for my POTA operations. I have a separate log files for VA3CP and VE3LJW. LoTW and eQSL confirmations are working for both logbooks.

Late 2009 27" iMac
OS X 10.11.6 El Capitan

When I export a log file in .adif format, I am missing the following fields:
STATION_CALLSIGN
OPERATOR
MY_SIG_INFO
SIG_INFO (If filled in while logging)

I also notice that RUMlogNG 3.12.2 is exporting log files in ADIF v3.0.6. Looking at v3.0.6, those fields are included.

Am I missing something here?

Do you have entered these data in to the logging fields? I'm wondering about your entered data in the Preferences. There you have to enter a header text for the QSO table, not your data.

OK Tom,

I understand now how those fields work.

What I was trying to do was have User_1 to User_3 set permanently to specific values and add User_4 info when appropriate. For this VE3LJW log, the STATION_CALLSIGN would always be VA3CP, the OPERATOR would always be VE3LJW, MY_SIG_INFO would be my POTA park number and SIG_INFO would be the POTA park number of the other station when working them Park-to-Park.

The way I understand it is that I have to type all four User_X fields in manually for each QSO.

When you have checked the option Remember, you have to enter the value just once. Always the data from the previous entered QSO will be used.

Thanks Tom,

I have tested what you say and it works fine. I did not understand the way to use those four fields.
Now, the .adif export includes those four fields.

Hi, I have a similar arrangement, but they only seem to take effect if I manually enter a QSO. In this case, MY_SIG_INFO will be imbedded when I export the ADI file. However, if I import an ADI file (such as from my iPhone app), then export the file to an ADI file, MY_SIG_INFO is not imbedded in that ADI file. Am I doing something wrong?

Without seeing the imported ADIF file it's useless to speculate.
