1) How to install CQRLOG?
There several options:

  • you are Ubuntu user and using one of supported version - please add my personal ppa repository to your system. Open the terminal and put there this: 
      sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ok2cqr/ppa && sudo apt-get update 
  sudo apt-get install cqrlog

    APT will download and install cqrlog with all necessary dependencies.

  • You are Ubuntu user but using unsupported Ubuntu version or use different distribution - please download cqrlog binaries cqrlog-<version>_<architecture>.tar.gz, intar it into your home folder and run. You must also install mysqlserver, mysql client, hamlib, libssl-devel and trustedqsl if LoTW support desired. You can also try to use DEB files for supported Debian/Ubuntu version but no guaranties.


2) How to upgrade from older version?
Upgrade from older version:

  • users who use supported Ubuntu version will be prompted by sytem to upgrade to new version
  • users who use unsupported version or other distribution delete the directory in your home foolder where is CQRLOG installed, download recent version and install it. Your data are stored in different directory, so don't be afraid, your data won't be deleted


3) Where is my log stored? I can't find the location of the files!
Your log is stored in ~/.config/cqrlog where ~ means your home directory e.g. my log is in
/home/ok2cqr/.config/cqrlog, ok2cqr is my user name


4) Radio control of my Icom works but I am unable to set a frequency. What now?
Check Preferences -> Modes and set the bandwidth to 0 for all modes.


5) What distributions are officially supported?
CQRLOG is now officially supported on Ubuntu 12.04 and Debian Unstable. If you are using older Ubuntu or any derivates, you can try to install deb packages for supported version or use directory with completely cqrlog binaries and other necessary files.


6) Is there any online help?
Yes, there is. You can look at it here on separate page.
