CQRLOG user name change
Hi!
As your call changed I think it is best to create a new log for new call.
That way all your LOTW/eQSL/cublogs do not get mixed.
NewQso/File/Open or create new log/Utils/Configuration/Export Export your current log's settings to file.
Then create a new log with button "new log". Select log with one click (gets blue)
Utils/Configuration/Import Import your old settings from file
After that button "Open log".
When it is open go NewQSO/File/preferences/Station and change callsign.
You will probably need to change also:
- online log upload
- callbook support
- lotx/eqsl support
- membership
And from DXCluster window/Select/Edit all connections to DXClusters
as all of these listed can refer to your old callsign.
(this is how I did it for year 2017 when all OH stations were allowed to use OF prefix for Finland 100 years jubilee)
It is up to you if it is worth of exporting/importing/change old log settings, or just simply create a new log and type all new values in preferences.
And if you do not want to do that just make all log/qsl uploads up to date and after that just change NewQSO/File/Preferences/station/callsign.
But be warned that your old call may appear in many settings of preferences.

Saku,
I realize this is over a month old, but I think the OP was asking how to change his username here on the CQRLOG website account.
My FCC callsign has also changed and I had the same question.
How do I change my account username from my old call (N3XJN) to my new call (WA4GSD)?
I have updated my email, but it looks like a db admin may have to change the username if it's possible.
Thanks,
Dan - WA4GSD (prev N3XJN)

Hi.
I think it is best ( fastest) to create new id with new callsign to this site.
