Operators want a place to jot observations that aren't captured by
the structured fields — weather anecdotes, propagation mode
commentary, equipment details, band conditions. Add a text column
on contacts plus the two ingest paths users submit through:
* /submit single-contact form gets a 3-row textarea under the
other fields. Optional, max 2000 chars, with a live length cap
via maxlength. Whitespace-only input collapses to NULL so the
column reflects "no notes" rather than an empty string.
* CSV importer recognises a `notes` (or `note`) column via the
existing header_aliases table and flows values straight through
submission_changeset. Sample template gets a matching example
row with embedded commas so the quoted-field round-trip is
exercised on download.
ADIF import and the refinement/refinement-notify paths are out of
scope — users specifically asked for CSV + single-contact. Tests
cover the changeset (accept/blank/over-length), CSV header parsing
(plain + RFC-4180 quoted), and LiveView form submit end-to-end.
Column name now matches the type key used everywhere else:
:hrrr -> hrrr_status, :weather -> weather_status,
:terrain -> terrain_status, :mechanism -> mechanism_status
Drops the @status_column_overrides remap in BackfillEnqueueWorker
(status_column/1 is now a straight :"#{type}_status" derivation) and
the long-form references in Contact, ContactWeatherEnqueueWorker,
and MechanismClassifyWorker. Migration is a metadata-only RENAME
COLUMN + RENAME INDEX — safe to land in prod (no table rewrite,
brief catalog lock only).
Contacts can be marked private at submit time (single form, CSV
import, ADIF import) and edit time. Private contacts are hidden
from the public map, the public /u/callsign profile, and the
browse table for anonymous and non-owning viewers. The original
submitter and admins see them inline on the browse table with a
"Yes" badge, and the detail page shows a lock icon. Non-authorized
viewers get a 404 on the detail page.
Add optional height1_ft/height2_ft to contact schema, submit form, and
edit form (direct + suggest-edit paths). Heights flow through to the
elevation-profile terrain analysis so clearance and diffraction are
computed from the actual antenna height instead of a 10-ft default.
Editing heights resets terrain_status and re-enqueues
TerrainProfileWorker so the stored path analysis picks up the new
geometry.
Also fix mark_likely_duct/3: the pattern was grabbing the element
instead of the index, so no duct ever got flagged as the likely
propagation path even when extract_ducts returned a valid layer.
Classifies every contact's likely non-LOS propagation mechanism and
persists the result on contacts.propagation_mechanism. Mechanism is
determined in priority order:
1. user_declared_prop_mode (ADIF PROP_MODE from the operator log)
2. EME — moon-ephemeris check, ≥2m band, >1800 km path
3. aurora — Kp≥5 + high-lat path, 50-432 MHz
4. sporadic-E — foEs × 5 ≥ band_mhz, 400-2500 km path
5. meteor_scatter — ±3 days of a shower peak, VHF/UHF
6. rain_scatter — common-volume radar heavy rain, 5-11 GHz ≤800 km
7. tropo_duct — HRRR native_best_duct ≥ band or ducting_detected
8. line_of_sight — ≤50 km path
9. troposcatter — default
Persisted via MechanismClassifyWorker (queue: :mechanism, unique on
contact_id). Submit-time enqueue path includes :mechanism by default;
BackfillEnqueueWorker cron now handles :mechanism alongside existing
types so prod continuously backfills any contact with
propagation_mechanism_status in (:pending, :queued, :failed). Also
added :radar to the cron's type list so common-volume radar backfill
runs automatically rather than only via `mix radar_backfill`.
New modules:
- Microwaveprop.Propagation.MoonEphemeris — Meeus low-precision moon
position, accuracy ±1° — enough for the mutual-visibility EME test
- Microwaveprop.Propagation.MechanismClassifier — plug-in priority
chain over the evidence map
- Microwaveprop.Workers.MechanismClassifyWorker — assembles inputs
from HRRR / native profiles / common-volume radar / solar_indices /
ionosonde + calls the classifier
ADIF importer now reads PROP_MODE into user_declared_prop_mode so
operator-tagged mechanisms (EME/ES/MS/RS/AS/AUR) become ground truth.
The US 9cm amateur allocation was cut from 3300-3500 to 3300-3450 MHz
in 2020, so 3456 (the legacy weak-signal calling frequency) is no
longer in-band. Move the canonical key to 3400, migrate existing
contacts, and keep 3456 input resolving to 3400 via the
nearest-band snap so historical ADIF/CSV logs still import cleanly.
Expands submittable-contact bands to include 6m, 2m, 1.25m, and 70cm
(as 432 rather than the old 440 placeholder). Each new band gets an
explicit allocation window in BandResolver.nearest_band so ADIF FREQ
fields near the amateur allocations resolve correctly while 60-900 MHz
frequencies outside those windows are still rejected. Microwave
(>= 900 MHz) snapping is unchanged — nearest-band match across the
full @allowed_bands list.
Also adds BandConfig entries for 50 and 222 (tropo-only config, same
pattern as 144/432). Sporadic-E / F2 / meteor scatter modeling is not
yet in scope — ionosphere data is only used to compute an Es readout
on /path for 50/144/222/432.
Profile page:
* New MicrowavepropWeb.UserProfileLive at /u/:callsign is a public
page showing a user's contacts and beacons. Resolves case-
insensitively so /u/w5isp and /u/W5ISP are the same thing; unknown
callsigns redirect to /. Uses daisyUI card / stats / table
components with an avatar-placeholder initial and hero icons.
* Accounts.get_user_by_callsign/1 (case-insensitive) plus
Radio.list_contacts_for_user/1 and Beacons.list_beacons_for_user/1
back the page. Beacons list includes both approved and pending so
owners see their drafts.
* The top nav bar and the three LiveView sidebars (MapLive,
WeatherMapLive, ContactMapLive) now render the logged-in callsign
as a navigate link to /u/:callsign instead of a static label.
* Nine new tests cover the lookup, the LiveView render, and the
ownership-scoped queries.
Flexible band input:
* New Microwaveprop.Radio.BandResolver module converts any of:
ADIF wavelength labels ("33cm", "1.25cm", "6mm", case/whitespace
insensitive), numeric frequency strings ("903.100", "10368.000"),
and canonical MHz integers into the one of the site's known bands.
Returns the nearest allowed band for numeric inputs >= 900 MHz,
nil otherwise.
* 902 MHz is added to Contact.@allowed_bands, ContactEdit.@allowed_bands,
AdifImport.@allowed_bands, and the BandResolver list so "33cm"
round-trips end-to-end.
* AdifImport and CsvImport now delegate band resolution to
BandResolver, and Radio.create_contact/2 normalizes the :band attr
on the way in so the manual form and any API callers benefit too.
CsvImport's "invalid band" tests previously used 99999 MHz which
the new resolver snaps to the nearest allowed band; swapped to
"notaband" which is truly unresolvable.
Contacts and beacons list UX:
* Remove the "Submitted" column from /contacts — it duplicated info
already visible on the detail page and was pushing the real
columns off narrow viewports. submitted_cell/1 and its three
column-specific tests go with it.
* Hide the Lat / Lon columns from /beacons — six decimal places of
coordinates weren't useful next to the grid square and took a
disproportionate amount of row width.
- Add contacts_inserted_at_desc_id_desc_idx so /contacts list runs as an
Index Scan (~0.4ms) instead of a Seq Scan + top-N heapsort (~77ms on
58k rows)
- Add Microwaveprop.Cache: tiny ETS-backed TTL cache for memoizing
expensive-but-stale-tolerant values
- Cache total_entries for unsearched /contacts page loads (30s TTL,
invalidated on insert)
- Cache the entire /contacts/map payload (pre-encoded JSON + band list),
moving load_contacts into Radio.contact_map_payload; invalidated on
new contact insert. Mount goes from ~150-300ms to ~5ms.
- Fix /map overlay blinking on load: reuse the Leaflet GridLayer across
renderScores calls and just redraw() against the updated ScoreGrid,
instead of removeLayer + new layer which flashed between tile regens
- Make mode optional on submission: schema change (null: true),
submission_changeset no longer requires it, blank strings normalise to
nil, CSV import accepts 6-column (no mode) or 7-column layouts
- core_components .input adds a red asterisk to labels when required,
giving users a visual cue for which fields must be filled on /submit
1. Prevent user_id impersonation in contact submissions
- Remove user_id from submission_changeset cast fields
- Pass user_id as a separate server-side argument to create_contact/2
- Client form params can no longer forge account-linked contacts
2. Restrict flag toggle to admins only
- Add admin? guard to toggle_flag event handler
- Hide flag button from non-admin users in template
3. Reset enrichment on timestamp edits
- Add qso_timestamp to the fields that trigger enrichment reset
- Prevents stale weather/HRRR/IEMRE data after time changes
When a contact is linked to a logged-in user account, display that
user's callsign in the Submitted column instead of a generic "Yes".
Anonymous submissions still show "Yes"; scraped contacts show an em
dash.
Contacts now carry a user_id FK to users. When a logged-in user
submits a contact (single or CSV upload), the server injects their
user_id and the email from their account into the submission params,
and the visible email input is replaced with a hidden input holding
that value — logged-in users don't have to retype their address.
The submission changeset now requires at least one of user_id or
submitter_email (rather than hard-requiring email), and email format
is only validated when one is actually present.
Reworded the submit-page blurb from "10 GHz to 241 GHz" to "902 MHz
and up" so it matches the actual band coverage of the project.
- Migration renames table, column, all indexes, and FK constraints
- Contact schema now references "contacts" table
- TerrainProfile foreign key renamed from qso_id to contact_id
- All code and tests updated to use contact_id
- New fields: hrrr_status, weather_status, terrain_status, iemre_status
with values: pending, queued, processing, complete, failed, unavailable
- EnrichmentStatus module defines valid state transitions
- Migration backfills: queued=true → complete, false → pending
- Workers set status on transitions (queued on enqueue, complete on finish)
- Show page reads status from contact struct, not computed dynamically
- Backfill dashboard queries status fields for accurate progress counts
- Remove cron-scheduled ContactWeatherEnqueueWorker (enrichment only on
submission, page view, or manual backfill)
- Partial indexes on status != 'complete' for fast unprocessed lookups
- Overlay HRRR duct layers on elevation profile chart (green bands)
- Add flagged_invalid field to contacts with toggle button on detail page
- Fix prune_old_grid_profiles to only delete 0.125° grid profiles,
preserving QSO-linked HRRR data at arbitrary positions
- Auto-enqueue HRRR fetch when viewing contact without HRRR data (<48h)
- Compact solar conditions and contact details layout
- Add band/mode/distance info line to elevation profile section
- All menus and UI text now say Contacts instead of QSOs
- Add 68, 122, 134, 241 GHz bands to submit form and validation
- Add info box on submit page explaining why contacts matter
- Larger submit button with icon
- Make HRRR partition migration idempotent for partial re-runs
Rename all modules, functions, variables, routes, and UI text from
qso/qsos to contact/contacts. Database table stays as "qsos" to avoid
migration. Add /qsos -> /contacts redirects for old URLs.
