A basic logging facility in _WSJT-X_ saves QSO information to files
|
|
named +wsjtx.log+ (in comma-separated text format) and +wsjtx_log.adi+
|
|
(in standard ADIF format). These files can be imported directly into
|
|
other programs, for example spreadsheets and popular logging programs.
|
|
As described in the <<INSTALL,Installation>> and <<PLATFORM,Platform
|
|
Dependencies>> sections, different operating systems may place your
|
|
local log files in different locations. You can always navigate to
|
|
them directly by selecting *Open log directory* from the *File* menu.
|
|
|
|
More elaborate logging capabilities are supported by third party
|
|
applications like {jtalert}, which can log QSOs automatically to other
|
|
applications including {hrd}, {dxlsuite}, and {log4om}.
|
|
|
|
The program option *Show DXCC entity and worked before status*
|
|
(selectable on the *Settings | General* tab) is intended mostly for
|
|
use on non-Windows platforms, where {jtalert} is not available. When
|
|
this option is checked _WSJT-X_ appends some additional information to
|
|
all CQ messages displayed in the _Band Activity_ window. The name of
|
|
the DXCC entity is shown, abbreviated if necessary. Your "`worked
|
|
before`" status for this callsign (according to log file
|
|
+wsjtx_log.adi+) is flagged with a single character and a change of
|
|
background color, as follows:
|
|
|
|
[horizontal]
|
|
!:: default color bright purple: -- New DXCC entity
|
|
~:: light pink: -- You have already worked this DXCC entity but not
|
|
this station
|
|
:: green: -- You have previously worked the calling station
|
|
|
|
In this respect the program does not distinguish between modes, but it
|
|
does differentiate between bands.
|
|
|
|
_WSJT-X_ includes a built-in +cty.dat+ file containing DXCC prefix
|
|
information. Updated files can be downloaded from {cty_dat} when
|
|
required. If an updated +cty.dat+ is present in the logs folder
|
|
and readable, it will be used in preference to the built-in one.
|
|
|
|
The log file +wsjtx_log.adi+ is updated whenever you log a QSO from
|
|
_WSJT-X_. (Keep in mind that if you erase this file you will lose all
|
|
"`worked before`" information.) You can append or overwrite the
|
|
+wsjtx_log.adi+ file by exporting your QSO history as an ADIF file
|
|
from another logging program. Turning *Show DXCC entity and worked
|
|
before status* off and then on again will cause _WSJT-X_ to re-read
|
|
the log file. Very large log files may cause _WSJT-X_ to slow down
|
|
when searching for calls.
