@K3LOE I log to a self-hosted Wavelog instance, that then sends my QSL to LoTW, QRZ.com, ClubLog, and others, so I don't have to manually do it all:

https://www.wavelog.org/

#HamRadio #AmateurRadio #hamr #Wavelog #QRZ #QSL #LoTW #ClubLog #HamLogging #Logging

I wish I could export my logs directly from Wavelog to World Radio League *without* having to do a manual export/import of ADIF files

It looks like, WRL does have QRZ integration for pulling logs from QRZ, which is neat, but I'd prefer all my logs to come from my Wavelog instance as my source of truth, hmm

#WorldRadioLeague #QRZ #Wavelog #HamRadio #AmateurRadio #hamr #ADIF

In the process of writing a #perl script to pull my most recent QSOs from #QRZ's #LogbookAPI and import them into a #hugo site, but I'm having trouble figuring out how to get recent ones without fetching the entire logbook.
The MAX option seemed to be the answer, but it's counting from the start; i.e. MAX=5 returns the *first *five QSOs in the logbook instead of the last 5.

Anyone have a solution?

looks like you need 250 US confirmed QSO's, not sure of the time scale

A volunteer moderator told me that QRZ.com does not provide an #AltText field for profile pictures. (But don't worry, it does provide the EXIF metadata).

I mean, that does say something about your values and priorities if you're in the website business in the year 2025, no?

#BlindHams #accessibility #QRZ #HamRadio

For this week's #hamchallenge : My primary logging software is #Wavelog. The webserver and backend database both run on virtualized machines in a #HighAvailability #Proxmox #cluster (same one that hosts this instance!). Those are backed up daily to another machine on site via PBS, then those backups are synced to a remote server running in a house in another city.

In addition, my log is also synced to both #QRZ and #LOTW every 6 hours or so, but I didn't think it qualifies as a true backup, since there is some data which those logs don't record.

#HC14S @hamchallenge #hamradio #amatuerradio

@colin I do use Wavelog as my logging software. Ther I just configured my #LotW certificates and then forget about it. My logs get uploaded automatically and confirmed QSOs get downloaded automatically as well. Same goes for other services like #eqsl, #ClubLog and #qrz.

Interesting article on QRZ: "where have all the women gone?"

my two cents: we *do* need more diversity in the hobby, whether it's women, trans+ or gender expansive folks, or more BIPOC folks

I don't have a good solution on how to achieve this, but the article does mention how to get widows involved, tho I think it leaves a lot to be desired on getting more folks involved

What do you think of the article and/or topic?

@BenDoubleU I'm a big proponent of #encryption, but needing to maintain cryptographic keys just to submit a #hamradio log is a bit absurd, especially when you consider the lack of security around the rest of #LOTW.
I've been through the pain of requesting new keys after #tqsl decided that my exported keys weren't valid on my new machine for some reason.
Now I keep my keys on my #Wavelog server and everything gets logged to there, then automatically synced to LOTW and #QRZ. Wavelog also does a great job tracking award progress, too, although QRZ has become my authoritative "source of truth" for awards.

@hamchallenge #hc05s

Updated my #QRZ page.

https://www.qrz.com/db/W8EMV

Biggest difference from the previous edit: emphasizing bicycle portable operations, de-emphasizing DMR, first mention of plans for HF.

I just updated the Awards page on my blog with the new stats!

@k3fnb I log to my #Cloudlog instance which then I have configured to log to #QRZ #LoTW and #Clublog

Are you a new ham (in the U.S.) who just got their license in the past 6 months?

You may be eligible for a free* handheld transceiver from QRZ:

free*: you may have to pay for shipping and/or tax, see QRZ's website for terms and conditions

Ponied up and paid for a QRZ XML subscription, tried to sync my Cloudlog up/down with QRZ to get everything "on the same page", QRZ is reflecting about 40 fewer QSOs than Cloudlog. Can't find the error. Already removed dupes etc.

#hamRadio #amateurRadio #QRZ

@MW1CFN yeah, I prefer physical cards but I think some people automate sending these?

I put them on my blog, https://k8vsy.radio/digital_cards.html

That way I can still catalog them, but I ask people to still upload the contacts to #LoTW or #QRZ

So I have a bunch of students with tech #hamradio licenses and #QRZ-1 HTs. They’re spread out across the country. What are some activities that you would recommend that they engage in?

@chrisfarnham hi!

Some of my favorite features of Cloudlog:

* ability to do Live logging in CloudLog (I use this when at my main station)
* so many fields to track info on a QSO/QSL, like if I received a physical QSL card, etc
* ability to see custom maps/tables for different parameters (like WAS or countries) based on confirmations
* analytics/stats on QSOs per year, mode, band, contests, etc

these are just a few of my top fav features of #CloudLog 😃

#HamRadio #AmateurRadio #LoTW #QRZ

So, I did it lol

I made a graph of my logging platforms/programs and the path my QSOs & QSLs take lol

it isn't the best quality but, hopefully it conveys what is happening lol

#AmateurRadio #HamRadio #Cloudlog #Clublog #LoTW #QRZ #HAMRS #JTDX #QSO #QSL #POTA

@K4HCK @croyle same, I don't really even log in to #QRZ much anymore, I still use it for logging/confirming contacts, but I interface with it and #LOTW via #cloudlog these days

but to your point, the site of #eQSL is really dated lol

After fighting with the sound settings etc. off and on for a couple of days, I made my first #HF contact ever today on #FT8 #digital.

Previous attempts were receive only affairs unwittingly. It wasn't until I noticed the output power was 0W on TX that I realized something was up.

Rig: #XeiguG90 at 5W with a ZLP MiniPro SC TNC attached to a #SlinkTenna in my attic.

Now I've got to figure out how to setup auto logging with #QRZ and Log Book of the World.

Things that make you go... hmmm.. #yeg #HamRadio #VE6HM #NARC

Caught this news on the weekly #net Guess I have to update #QRZ now. #VA6LAT Don't be a #SadHAM

Is anyone else having trouble with their #QRZ logbook?

Ever since the most recent #Firefox update (I use #Librewolf on #Xubuntu), it's been broken and I can't do anything with it. It's incorrectly formatted and I get some nonsense message about XML access. I'm a paid account.

What's the protocol for logging Nets on LOTW or QRZ. I started operating few months ago and I see that no station is adding logs for regular Nets or ragchews. Only when there is a new station on a random QSO, logs are created in my region.

I wrote a Python Telegram bot that lets you query/lookup a call sign via QRZ.com

the code isn't in the best shape, and I'm working on cleaning it up, but I thought I'd share it, in case anyone might find it useful or wants to run their own instance

Redoing my #introductions post since there's a lot of you again:

I'm a #general class ham in the Washington DC area. I mostly work #HF. I the worst mic shyness on the planet so I tend to stick to #digimodes; sometimes I go outside at obscene hours to wave my #yagi around & talk through a #satellite. I try to do the weekly #hellschreiber & #winlink (#FFWN) nets, & you should too! If you're a #QRZ member from #Vermont let's set up a #sked because you're the last state I need for that #WAS award.

Applying for: World Continents Award Mixed with the following endorsements: 40M,15M,10M

Anyone else experiencing a drop in LotW confirmations? It used to be if I was actively making QSOs that when I downloaded from LotW to QRZ I'd have several an hour. For the last month or more, I can go a whole day and maybe get 10.

Example: today so far I've made 30 QSOs. Zero confirmations imported via LotW.

Another day, another logbook uploaded to #eqsl, #lotw and #qrz, another batch of awards to apply for :)

looks like #QRZ #logbook is back online now

Is it just me or is QRZ's logbook offline?

Look who's featured on the #QRZ page today Tony #AE0KW @tony I had a #morsecode #pota #parksontheair #QSO with Tony yesterday.

Because apparently there weren’t enough people mad at me on the Internet, I made a proposal that QRZ stop calling its “contacted of a bunch of countries” awards “Master of CONTINENT.” https://forums.qrz.com/index.php?threads/does-it-have-to-be-master.856520/

Since the 80m SSB crowd has already jumped in, can I get some support from the not-overtly-racist crowd? #hamradio #qrz #srsly
