Can't enter a frequency if Rig is turned off.

If there is a TRX rig defined and that rig is turned off, you can't manually enter a frequency. The keyboard input is immediately jumps back to zero.

That's a problem. If I make a contact on a rig that is not a TRX I can't manually enter the frequency. That sucks. I had to delete my rig in TRX to enter a frequency. Too much trouble to use TRX that way. That needs to be fixed.

Also, I see 2.5.2 version referred to as an old rev, but it is the one for download on your website. What's with that?

FLRig Start Error "Unknown command line parameter: -m"

I'm trying to configure CQRLog to interface with my radio (an FT-710) through FLRig. I'm running the latest release of FLRig and CQRLog on a Linux machine running Zoran Linux 18.1. Both Apps installed without any problem. FLRig when launched separately connects to my rig and I have full control. CQRLog launches correctly (now that I fixed the database issue discussed in my prior post).

Online Log Upload - Changes ignored

Alpha 142 QT5 2026-05-1

Preferences:
"Ignore changes caused by LoTW/eQSL upload or download" is checked but ignored.
After Upload/Download, all QSOs are uploaded again.

The Upload acts sometimes strange. After editing one QSO, it was deleted and uploaded to all Logs three times.

Upload to hamqth runs sometimes into error too.
QSO is in my Log and in the hamqth Log, but could not deleted when it is reuploaded after a change.

Initial Install MySql Server Error

I am setting up a new PC with Zoron 18.1. I installed CQRLog and when first launched it crashes trying to create the first database.

I get the following error: "MySql could not be started, please check if MySql Server is installed properly." and "Error during connection to database: TMySQL57Connection : Server connect failed."

A few Connection Problems with WSJTX

Latest git pull from today.
gtk2 Build.
Yaesu FT-DX10

This Version has sometimes Connection Problems with WSJTX. Connection Times Out or could not be established after the start of WSJTX but could be reestablished. Retry at the initial Error Message from WSJTX (no Radio Connection) or, if the Connection Button goes from green to orange, after a Click on that Button. Previous cqrlog Versions had stable Connections.

TRX with FT-1000 MP

I have two rigs, a Flex 8400 and a Yaesu FT-1000 MP. TRX is working for the Flex after many changes on the settings. I can't find the same magic for the MP. Starting with what works with JTDX, I have these settings.  No joy on the TRX.  Is there a log file that might show errors, looked in .config/cqrlog and didn't see anything.

Upgraded Debian and have DB issues

Hi

I've updated, from old debian 9 32 bit, to debian 12 amd64. Keeping /home volume to keep all data.
installed CQRLOG from command line, but has error connecting database. Running in debug mode the result is (just a part)

Possible MariaDB bug? Who knows...

When making develop tests with Alpha_142 version I noticed that there is a problem with my "ALL" log when using Online Logs. This perhaps never happen to anyone else, but in case may happen.
My setup is Fedora43 linux and I am using local MariaDB server for logs. MariaDB version is "Ver 15.1 Distrib 10.11.16-MariaDB"
In Cqrlog setup I do NOT use "save log data to local machine", instead Database Connect window has 127.0.0.1 as Server and 3306 as Port.
My log has a bit over 20000 qsos.

How does one import a log?

I see "export" in the menu, but no where can I find import?

CQRLOG, WSJT-X, ICOM 7300 and 9700 on the same computer

Is anyone successfully running this combination, with both radios running at the same time? I've been trying to get this working for over a week and at this point, I'm looking for help.

I'm running Ubuntu 26.04.

Problem with Online logs/UDPLog and GTK2 version of CqrlogAlpha

Hi!

When making develop tests with Alpha_142 version I noticed that there is a problem when using Online logs and UDPLog with GTK2 graphics version.

You may notice it as freezing upload status window (also upload halts), or even crash reports that may vary.
Usually having automatic upload, when qso is saved (upload one qso at time), this occurs seldom. If not at all.
But when uploading manually several qsos with same upload (upload all qsos) problem may arise.

Windows position (Alpha_141)

Hello everyone,

Since version Alpha_135 (or earlier), when CQRLog is opened, the windows no longer retain the layout (position and size) they had during the previous session.
Could you please fix this bug?

Thanks,

QRZ Log auto upload feature added to Alpha.141 version

Saku and others,

I have been working on adding auto uploads for QRZ to the latest Alpha branch.
I think I have it solved. Here is a video of it in action under testing on my Arch system machine. I am not a developer or coder at all. I recently discovered Claude AI and used it to create the code to add the feature to the Alpha.141 fork. I also uploaded it to my github page if anyone wants to test it.

QRZ subscription is required for the auto upload to work from what I understand. Api Key from QRZ is required. I have both.

LOTW downloads not showing on QSO list

Since March 18th my LOTW downloads are not showing up on my QSO list. Uploads are fine and show as sent. When I download I get this:

Connected to LoTW server

File downloaded successfully
File: /home/bill/.config/cqrlog/lotw/2026-04-01_07-54-33.adi

No bandmap window

When starting Alpha-cqrlog I now do not get the Band map window.
When quiting cqrlog and starting it again, the Band map window *does* show up.
All other windows show up as expected.
No errors are seen.
Manually starting the Band map window, does *not* make the window appear.
This seems quite reproducable on my self-compiled version of Alpha-cqrlog.

I do not remember this issue was seen on my previous pull:

[solved] I cannot install mariadb.

Hello all,

I have upgraded from Ubuntu 22.04 to Ubuntu 24.04. The upgrade process uninstalls CQRLOG so I have to install it again.
The CQRLOG program can be installed, but when I try to install MariaDB I get always errors related with the package "mysql-server-8.0".
It says that MySQL is frozen and I cannot do any operation. I've tried to uninstall the complete MySQL and I cannot do it.

wsjtx/jtdx

When remote wsjtx/jtdx is on I am not happy when it is closed because wsjtx/jtdx is closed. It should be my decision when switch off.

CqrLog not loading mariadb

Hi
I install cqrlog on Fedora 43 recently and it can't access the mariadb to load or use the log on the machine and not online somewhere else.
Here is the recent log.
I started it up and the error showed up. I uninstalled through software app and updated the machine. I then installed cqrlog and still had a failure. I uninstalled this time using dnf remove and reinstalled using dnf install.
Same error.

tqsl

First: I have been having problems uploading log's to LoTW with TQSL. I noticed that there were two entries in the program listing. Thinking that that may be the problem, I removed one. That removed both from the listing. I used program manager to reinstall tqsl, and both listing were returned. What is the purpose of having two TQSL options?

Second: The problem trying to upload to LoTW occurs with the failure report:

TQSL Version 2.7.2 [unknown]

Installing CQRLOG with existing MariaDB on Linux Mint 22.1

Linux Mint 22.1 uses Ubuntu 24.04 packages. The CQRLOG PPA does not support Ubuntu 22.04/Noble. I am using MariaDB for local web site development with Wordpress and for phpmyadmin. Who knows what else I might use it for. If I try to install or need to reinstall CQRLOG, I cannot without my MariaDB being uninstalled.

How can I install CQRLOG to avoid this problem?

And I wish the Ubuntu package would check for a valid DB, either MariaDB or Mysql, before installing one or the other.

FLDigi Remote did not work

I still can't start FLDigi remote from latest cqrlog.
If I try, I got a Error Box from cqrlog with "No timers available" and Abort and Okay Buttons.
Abort kills cqrlog, and OK does nothing.
I can start FLDigi and the TRX Connection is working, changing Freq in FLDigi changes Freq in cqrlog, both ways are working.
No Mode change in cqrlog in New QSO Window. Stays at SSB.
But there is no logging from FLDigi to cqrlog.

Using TXOffset / RXOffset?

Hi all,

in the frequency tables there is an option to add RX and TX offset. Is there anyone using this possibility?

My idea is to use it for Transverters. I thought it was going to work like this, that in the NewQSO window if yo enter a (uW)band like 5.7GHz the that is would will be saved in the log and shown in the QSO window. But the frequency sent to the rig would be the IF frequency based on the TX / RX offset for that band.

Is there anyone using it? Does someone have some clues how to set it up???

Many Thanks in Advance!
