ADIF compatible logfile & UDP port

Open dk5sm opened this issue 3 years ago • 5 comments

I would like to propose an ADIF compatible logging. In the first step an output to a file might be sufficient; maybe later on a sending via "ADIF UDP" to a supported logging application is feasible as an alternative.

@dk5sm do we need an adif log for every single message or would it be enough, just opening message info screen and sending a adif entry manually via UDP?

UDP is a good thing, but requires the logging application to be listening at that time. Guess, that for this reason sometimes qso´s will not be logged and will get lost. I´d prefer a solution with an additional cumulative logging file (not one file per qso/contact).

suggestions for logging function on the first successful link to a new callsign or have a button on the "submenu" for logging ad-hoc

What if we add a "adif" button next to a message and let the user decide which message to send via UDP to a logging server?

Another approach might be, adding a adif button which opens then a user dialog. The user then can fill the necessary data and pushing it via UDP as well.
