DX Cluster and Mode Switching Issue with QLog and FTdx10
3
I know I saw this issue talked about previously but I cannot seem to find the thread in groups.io. When clicking DX on the DX Cluster the radio will switch bands without issue. But, when I go from or to a band using a different mode, the frequency changes correctly but I have to click the DX twice to get the mode to change correctly. As an example; I am on 20m USB and I click a 40m DX station in the cluster. The radio switches to the correct frequency, but remains in USB. Clicking it a second time will make the mode change to LSB. Any suggested corrective actions would be much appreciated. -- V/R, Michael G. McGuire, K3SNO 484-703-9591 So Mote It Be.

Layout Profiles
4
I have been looking around but cant find an answer to this question, and I can't seem to figure out myself. How does the Layout profiles work? I tried creating 2, but I cant see any difference, and I thought it was for like window organization, but it does not save the changes I did. So I don't see what it is for. Thanks, Joel

Would it be possible??? (Question maybe request)
Something I have in plans in the near future is to add an remote antenna switch to my setup, you know, single coax line to a selection of multiple antennas. But I'm planning on building one with a ESP32 or ESP8266 development board. That way I can control it over network (either wifi or ethernet). Once setup I could trigger switching the antenna (relay) with an HTTP request. something like: curl -s 192.168.1.5/api/v1/select/2 that will select antenna port #2 for example. Doesn't need to be this way, but something similar. This web page has the code for the concept: https://0x9900.com/remote-controlled-antenna-switch/ Could that be added to the Antennas tab on the Equipment? To add the option to setup a query URL for each antenna, and the "n" amount of buttons for each one, maybe on the rig section or on a new window just for the antenna, so we can push the button and select the antenna (which would also update the "Antenna" field on "My Station" tab? I really don't know if there is any Log that does this. Maybe there is, but don't think there are many in such case. If it is possible, I can submit an official request on GitHub.

QLog not terminating
Hello all, I'm a new user and quite impressed with QLog so far. I have some strange problem though: QLog does not terminate if I use "Quit" or CTRL-Q in the main window. It only closes the window. Other open windows (like rotor control) which are detached from the main window do not close. I have to kill the program (CTRL_C if started from command line). I observed this on Ubuntu 22.04 with the precompiled image and on Ubuntu 24.04 with the precompiled image and also with a local build from current github master. My search did not find anything. Maybe a user error?

Way to copy POTA information from Comments to pota_ref columns in db?
2
Hello, I have around 160+- contacts for POTA with the pota information on Comments. Is there a way managing directly the db file, to grab that information and copy it to the pota_ref db column? most of these contacts are in the form like: "POTA: K-1234 US-ST" or close. I could play with some left behind and manually update them, but would like to get at least the most of them easily. I copy the db file and tried to accomplish this, but could not figure out the sql syntax needed. Thanks in advance, Joel

Filter DX Cluster By Band Allocation

Ladislav, Is there a way to filter the DX Cluster to only show the frequency ranges that an operator is entitled to use. Even something in an editable configuration flat file would suffice. -- V/R, Michael G. McGuire, K3SNO So Mote It Be.

Device ID and Path for Rig/ Rotor Control
6
#Guide
#Tip
Hi I¡¯ll preface this post with: I¡¯m a Linux Newbie, there may be better ways to do what I will describe below. Do your research and use caution. If you are like me and have recently moved to Linux, or are transitioning away from MS Windows, you would have noticed there are some differences with regards to USB ports. You can no longer use ¡°COM#¡± as an entry. It won't work. You can use ¡°ttyUSB#¡±, but as Ladislav mentioned in this post /g/qlog/message/428 ¡°It's not a very good practice to use ttyUSB# devices. These device files can change during disconnection or reboot." I have found a couple of ways to determine the correct "Device ID" and "Path" to use: The Terminal Shell method (Alias: console, or command prompt) or the Graphical method. Note: Both methods described below relate to Linux Mint 22 Cinnamon. It may, or may not, be the same for your flavor of Linux, but should give you a clue on where to look. Terminal Shell: For the purists and those wanting to learn a little about the Terminal Shell. Add Yourself To The "dialout" Group Open "Terminal" from the menu¡ right click the Linux logo in the bottom left corner and type "Terminal" in the search bar and click the "Terminal". Type: groups <your username> If you do not see "dialout" listed type the following: sudo adduser <your username> dialout Enter your Administrator Password and hit enter. Reboot the computer for changes to take effect Find the Device ID Open a Terminal Shell and enter "ls /dev/serial/by-id" (Without quotes) This will return something like the following: In this example ¡°usb-FTDI...¡± is my rotator controller and the ¡°USB-Silicone_Labs...¡± is my Icom IC-7300. In your terminal, select/ highlight the Device ID you want to use, right click and select copy Append the Device ID to the file path: ¡°/dev/serial/by-id/¡±. Like: ¡°/dev/serial/by-id/¡± PLUS ¡°usb-Silicon_Labs_CP2102_USB_to_UART_Bridge_Controller_IC-7300_02027024-if00-port0¡± You final path will look something like this: ¡°/dev/serial/by-id/usb-Silicon_Labs_CP2102_USB_to_UART_Bridge_Controller_IC-7300_02027024-if00-port0¡± NOTE: The Device ID ¡°numbering¡± will be different for your situation. You must use the exact same Device ID as listed in you terminal screen. Paste the file name into the Port section under Rigs (or as appropriate) in your setup screen in QLOG. Click ¡°Modify¡± and ¡°Save¡± In the Menu bar click "Equipment" and then "Connect" If all is correct your device should connect and keep the same path between reboots. Graphical Method: Add Yourself To The "dialout" Group Open "Users and Groups" from the menu¡ right click the Linux logo in the bottom left corner and type "Users and Groups" in the search bar and click the "Users and Groups". Enter your Administrator Password and hit enter Select the user to update If you do not see "dialout" listed under the "Groups" section, left click on the red highlighted area to open the "Groups" section Put a tick in the box for "dialout" and click OK Click 'X" to close and then reboot the computer for changes to take effect Find the Device ID This method may be more intuitive than the Terminal Shell method mentioned above if you are coming from MS Windows. I'd encourage you to try the Terminal Shell method as it can be quicker and easier. Open your favorite "Files Explorer" from the menu¡ right click the Linux logo in the bottom left corner and type "Files" in the search bar and click the "Files Explorer". Make sure you are in the root directory. Type ¡°/¡± in the search bar at the top NOTE: You can mess things up while in the root directory if you change or delete things. Use caution. Right click on the device you need and select properties. At the top under name hover over the ¡°Name¡± of the file and right click to select all. Right click over the name again and select copy From here, refer to point 5 in the "Terminal Shell Method" under "Find the Device ID" above Others more knowledgeable than me may chime in with alternatives or corrections which are welcome. Hope this helps another Newbie Cheers Adam, VK4IM

24 Hour Clock

Hi I see a similar question may have been asked in this post /g/qlog/message/16 BUT... I'm struggling to get QLOG to show the time in 24 hour format. I do not want to see AM/PM. I'm not worried about the date, just time. How can I do this... My task bar shows 24 hour time format but QLOG does not. Screen grab below. I'm using Linux Mint 22 Cinnamon. What am I doing wrong? (Yes, I'm new to Linux) Cheers Adam, VK4IM

JS8 as Mode?
3
Hello all! What a great logger this is! If I'm ever asked how I set it up, I will have to answer "accidentally". It was almost that easy. I use it under Linux Mint 21.1 with an IC-7300, WF View, WSJT-X and JS8 Call. My only cares in the world tonight are a mild backache, a somewhat underperforming vertical antenna, and I can't seem to find JS8 in the mode pulldown menu. 73

Rig control with Hamlib
9
Hello all, I just installed Qlog and am trying to get it to connect to my rig, an Icom 7300 using Hamlib. No matter how many different combinations I try, I can¡¯t get it to work and always get some error. I can¡¯t find anything on the net about how to set it up really. The documentation is very general with no specifics how to¡¯s or examples so I¡¯m stuck. Below is my setup. In WSJTX, on the radio tab, for the Rig selection, I have FLRig FLRig and everything works fine with it. So I¡¯m very confused as to why QRLog isn¡¯t working with the same selection. If anyone has any ideas or could point me in the right direction I would much appreciate it. Thanks. My setup Icom 7300 Kubuntu 24.04 Hamlib w64-4.5.5 flrig 2.0.05 flxmlrpc 01.4 Wsjtx 2.6.1 Qlog 0.38.0 installed via Flatpak 73 Vince HS0ZPQ
