Update on the development of EasyLog

This approach allows us to optimize the internal engine and improve performance paving the way for new sections and features that we can't wait to present to you.

Stay tuned, in the next issue we will tell you in detail about the new developments coming!

Tips & Tricks

The standard radio for the DX-Cluster

The DX-Cluster enables you to instantly adjust the radio to the frequency and mode of the DX-Spot, allowing for immediate operation and QSO attempts. Being quick to act, especially with rare stations or DX-peditions that have large pile-ups, can be crucial in securing the QSO instead of being stuck in prolonged, frustrating calls.

To enable clicking on frequencies, a radio with a CAT interface is needed and should be configured in the Radio menu. 

If you have set up one or more of the 6 available radio interfaces in EasyLog to connect with your radios, you must choose which radio should be the "default," used for clicking on a DX-Spot in the DX-Cluster.

Figure 1 demonstrates how the default radio relates to the radio interface for your device connection.

In the example, an IC-7300 is set up as Radio 5 (using Omnirig) and radio 5 is selected as the default radio in the top left panel of the Radio menu.

In the example an IC-7300 is set as Radio 5 through Omnirig and you can see that in the top left panel of the Radio menu, radio 5 is chosen as the default radio.

This setup ensures that clicking on a spot's frequency in the cluster panel mode (or double-clicking the line in DX-List mode) automatically tunes the radio (and adjusts the mode) to match the spot's frequency.

Quick Guide to Using EasyLog

Beyond the manuals found in the EasyLog Manuals menu, new EasyLog installers or those testing the Trial version will benefit from the Quick Guide as it outlines key EasyLog features and configuration steps for a comprehensive initial experience

The EasyLog quick guide, which we suggest you read, is offered in 4 languages. To access it, click the orange button (1.) that is always visible at the top right of the EasyLog main screen.

Abundant with illustrations, the Quick Guide will guide you through the setup processes. From importing ADIF files to configuring Radios and from DX-Cluster to awards and FT8-Running.
