There seems to be a problem opening my serial port
steve@steve-laptop:~/cqrlog$ ./cqrlog
[WARNING] Out of OEM specific VK codes, changing to unassigned
[WARNING] Out of unassigned VK codes, assigning $FF
Starting CQRLOG ...
An error has occured setting the rig pathname:/dev/ttyUSB0
An error has occured setting the rig pathname:/dev/ttyUSB0
grig works fine with the command
grig -m 123 -r /dev/ttyUSB0 -s 9600
Can you provide some guidance. I'm running Ubuntu 9.10 and have installed all the 32 bit libraries.
Thanks,

Hi Steve,
please enable debug mode and paste here what CQRLOG writes down into console. Thank you.
How to enable debug mode is here:

Peter,
I finally got it working last evening. The problem was after I loaded the 32 bit library, I had to remove the 64 bit hamlib.
Thanks, yours is the best Linux Ham program. One wish is that you implement full radio frequency control using the mouse wheel. With that addition you could compete with Ham Radio Deluxe and DX Labs which are probably the best Windows programs.
A few Linux improvements and my next computer may not have to dual boot.

Hi Steve,
I'm glad you finally get radio control work.
How should tunning with mouse wheel work? I don't know hamradio deluxe. Please describe me it. I could probaly add it to CQRLOG, too.
Thank you.

Peter,
Moving the mouse wheel on the computer changes the the radio frequency in the same way as the knob on the radio. In most programs you can quickly change the step size. For example if you click on the 1 kHz display setting each incremental turn of the wheel will increase or decrease the radios frequency by 1 kHz. If you first click the 10 kHz position each incremental turn of the wheel increase or decrease the radios frequency by 10 kHz.
It is better to try it yourself. I assume you have a amateur friend who still uses windows. Look at the web site http://www.ham-radio-deluxe.com/. It is a free download for windows and just as your program is the best for Linux Ham Radio Deluxe is the best windows program.
Maybe easier to check and possibly get code from is an open source Linux program grig. See http://groundstation.sourceforge.net/grig/. It doesn't have much other functionality but should give you the idea.

Thank you very much, Steve. I'll think about it. It won't be so easy.

I am also having problems getting rig control to work. I am running CQRLOG 0.9.1 under ubuntu 9.04. I have hamlib 1.2.9 installed. Fldigi works just fine on it's own; the interface to the Jupiter seems to work OK. I have used rigctl to also check the hamllib interface to the radio; this works well.
Here is the output when I run CQRLOG with the debug option turned on:
./cqrlog

Check your port settings. The handshake should be set to HARDWARE and both DTR and RTS must be UNCHECKED !!!

Hi Martin,
I unchecked the RTS box; it did not make a difference. Still no TRX control.
