SDR rig control AND CQRLog at the same time?? Of course --

There are a lot of things we like to do at the same time. Walk and chew gum, ignore your girlfriend while watching the game, the college girls that live down the street. And don't forget running CQRLog and your favorite SDR rig-control software at the same time. Some of these are harder to accomplish than others, while what's left remains within the realm of possibility. (If you know of a reliable method for the college girls, please post instructions!)

For now we're going to settle for running CQRLog in tandem with our SDR software that also controls our rig.

Ubuntu 20.04 Access Violation error

Configuration:

Ubuntu 20.04 fresh install as of two days ago.
MariaDB 10.3.22

Initially had some trouble with the install, but managed to install cqrlog via the downloadable package. The installation worked initially, and was even able to restore all logs.

Unsecure passwords for eQSL

Hi,

It seems CQRLOG forces to choose unsafe passwords for eQSL. The password field in the settings only allows passwords with a lenght of 8 and only digits and numbers. The field seems to accept special characters like $%_&, but the password (e.g. like %24_dhj8) will not work. There be an error message, when you try to upload your log.

CW interface only on first rig

Hello CQRLOG,

I'am digging deeper into the setup of CQRLOG.

Today was time to setup two rigs with hamlib and working CW interface.
I was not aware of the fact, that only the first rig can use the CW interface!

Menu CW interface -> Interface type: HamLib -> see description there

For my understanding I can use TRX control to switch the rigs.
Only the activated rig (first or second) is the rig which can use the CW interface!

I would be great to have this fixed.

Fresh install to fresh computer (virtual) Fedora 32

Yesterday I made a test to install cqrlog to Fedora 32.

I wanted to test QT5 version and I did not have free hardware so I ended up to virtual computer.
Built one with 8Gb virtual hard drive.

Loaded network install media from https://download.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora/linux/releases/32/Server/x... and installed it as virtual CD of virtual computer.

Log transfer from one computer to another

I decided to transfer the log. I exported to ADIF and imported it into CQRLog on another computer. After that, in the QSO List Field DXCC CFM: 1
Actually I have CFM: 116. Where does the rest of the confirmation go?

Backing up by script - Solved

I need to set up regular cqrlog backups (preferably automatic).

The backup on exit doesn't work for me. It is not a priority to fix that because I rarely shutdown/reboot/exit-cqrlog.

I would prefer a backup method that allows me to automate a backup, maybe by middle of the night cron job, or similar.

I have tried this suggestion:

paul@paul:~$ (/usr/bin/mysql -B -N -e 'show databases like "cqr%"' | /usr/bin/xargs /bin/echo -n mysqldump --databases) > /tmp/mycqrlogsdump.sql

Which resulted in:

ERROR open CQRLOG

Hello,
I installed the version UBUNTU 20.04 and I installed CQRLOG from the Synaptic package manager.
When launching CQRLOG I have an error on the base.
I consulted the forum where I found this solution:
I uninstalled CQRLOG
then I applied the following command
sudo apt install cqrlog libmariadb3 libmariadb-dev mariadb-common mariadb-server
below the errors encountered
Reading package lists ... Done
Building the dependency tree
Reading status information ... Done
cqrlog is already the most recent version (2.4.0-3).

SOLVED - Cannot delete dupes from log

Good day all.
After mistakenly importing my main backup adi file (instead of exporting it) I have 37k dupes in my log.
I tried the delete dupes from QSO window file menu but get this error:

----------------------------
ERROR: : Error executing query: Cannot truncate a table referenced in a foreign key constraint (`cqrlog001`.`log_changes`, CONSTRAINT `log_changes_ibfk_1` FOREIGN KEY (`id_cqrlog_main`) REFERENCES `cqrlog001`.`cqrlog_main` (`id_cqrlog_main`))

Contact administrator

Hi, I'm trying to contact the site admin. I have a new call. KM6CG has become AE2Z. How can I change my login name?

Add US States to existing records

I am using 2.4.0 as packaged by Fedora 31.

I have a few logbook databases that were accumulated before I configured callbook support. These do not have a state filled into the state field. Is there any way to re-tag them now that I have callbook support enabled?

We're probably talking under 100 contacts, but more than 50.

Thanks,

Upload to qrz.com

Hi guys,

I have spent some time and implemented a function to upload QSO data to qrz.com logbook (similar to hamQTH, hrdlog, etc.).
This can basically upload to qrz.com. The thing is it cannot delete/update QSOs because that requires an individual log ID that you get when you upload the QSO data to qrz.com.
I am thinking about storing that ID into CQRlog's database in order to be able to delete(or update aka. delete and re-enter) the QSO from the qrz.com logbook later. What do the developers think about this?

My changes (no doc yet) are here:

Ubuntu release file

No Ubuntu 20.04 release file for PPA can not enable PPA without it

Database corrupted, reimport ok but still some mysql.err entries

Hello CQRLOG,

yesterday I switched from MySQL- to MariaDB-Server.
All was okay. CQRLOG was working.

Later the day I checked "mysql.err" again - some strange messages in there.

I solved this doing reinstall from backup (settings and adif).
Then all was okay again.

Just some messages are still there:

GPIO Pins to PTT

This may not be the right forum, and if it isn't I apologize, but if I want the PI4 to key the radio via the GPIO pins (say pin 17) when running digital modes what values do I put in here?

this thread
https://github.com/Hamlib/Hamlib/issues/48
suggests that
sudo rigctld -P GPIO -p 17
would achieve what I want from CLI but how to incorporate that into CQRlog's setup?

mysql

I have upgraded to Ubuntu 20.04 and can not open cqrlog database. any help would be appreciated

Trouble connection to SDR radio from Expert

I have added myself to the dialout group but when I try to connect to radio I get:

blair@blair-XPS-8930:~$ rigctld -m 214 -r /dev/ttyS4
rig_open: error = IO error

I attached a screen capture of the CAT setting in the ExpertSDR software.

Ubuntu 20.04 LTS 

It gives me an error and I think I have the libraries installed

MySQL coud not be started, please check if the MySQL server is installed properly
If You don’t find the answer, ask in CQRLOG forum and attach last 20 lines from the mysql.erre.file

Install issue ubuntu 20.04

For the life of me I cannot get this install correctly from Software installer or any other way. The problem seems to be around mysql not starting.

From bash:

bash: ./cqrlog: No such file or directory
blair@blair-XPS-8930:~$ cqrlog

remote database within home network

I feel I am missing something simple. I'd like to have my raspberry pi connect to the cqrlog database on the desktop so that both computers use the same database and the log is always synced. I uncheck local logs on the pi and enter the destop's name but fail to connect. Maybe there's something i'm missing on the desktop's end?

yes .config/crqlog has been copied over and I see the complete log on the pi when working locally so everything should be here.

Sent QSL Column

Is it possible to have a Sent QSL, Lotw, eQSL column similar to the Received QSL, Lotw, eQSL column?

Thanks

DXCC worked but not confirmed?

First off, I LOVE CQRLOG. Second, how can I get a list of just the DXCC stations I worked but have not gotten a confirmation from?
Thanks!

New install not calculating distance

Hi guys.

I have moved computers and moved my data from the old computer via an export / import.

The new version is 2.4.0 on Linux Mint.

All seems to be working nicely, however...

I used to get a distance displayed underneath the lat long on the right hand side of the QSO entry window.

I am now only getting that when I display the old QSO entries from before the cross over. New ones are not being calculated.

I have my location set in preferences as a 6 digit maidenhead.

RBN showing red STOP sign

Hi cqrlog,

first: thanks for this great software!

Now I'll try to explain the problem:
- starting cqrlog
- dxcluster ist open
- propagation window open
- CW type open
- RBN Monitor open
=> then I click in the empty RBN Monitor window - try to catch "connect" - missed this and got a red STOP sign.
=> I can close the RBN Monitor but it is unuseable then until restart of cqrlog.

Attached you can see the trace.
