[LogPlus] LogPlus status

[m.jonink at planet.nl]

Hello Zoli,
 
That is good news!! :-)
I'm glad I'm still on the LogPlus reflector HI
 
I've been using LP untill a few months ago. Since there hasn't been any updates for ages, I finaly switched to Logger. 
However, I love LogPlus, and I appreciate your idea of bringing it back to life!
 
Concerning your scope of phase3, in particular the Telnet function, The good thing about my current activ logging programm is the telnet-dx cluster information being checked against the log. New countries, bands, modes and so on are easily realtime recognized.
 
Best wishes, Martin PA4WM

Dear All,


I always admired the ease-of use and intuitive solutions Bob has implemented in LogPlus! and felt sorry when its development stopped. Last year I asked Bob Winters, Logplus!'s author if he could give me the code to keep it alive for a few faithful users and he generously gave me the entire code of LogPlus!

My first goal is to recompile Logplus V4 to XP. Phase two will be to get rid of a few errors I am aware of. Phase three would be to implement new features. I plan to do Phase I within a few weeks.

If you have identified errors in the current code, which you find very disturbing let me know, and if they are feasible, I will scope that in into Phase 2.

Scope for Phase 3:

- telnet interface
- System variables (system time,port config etc)
- CAt protocol for newer radios (K3 etc) maybe via Omnirig module
- ADIF export
- LOTW export
- ADIF 2.x compatibility (Primary/Secondary subdivision etc)

I personally do not do electronic qsling, but if there is demand, I would consider adding LOTW import.

I will send a note to LogPlus! reflector. I will do this for fun, all the LogPlus! users can get the updates for free. On the other hand it will be a hobby-project to keep LogPlus! alive, meaning no deadlines or commitments.

I do not have the intention neither to develop it to a full-blown DX-ing suit (bloatware in my books) nor to gain financial benefits of it. I would like to keep it a functional electronic logbook and keep the concept of effectiveness, speed and ease of use Bob developed.

Your feedback will be appreciated.

73!
