WSJT-X (http://physics.princeton.edu/pulsar/k1jt/wsjtx.html) is a nice program. It just don't have any features to lookup information in my log.
Therefore I decided to make this little util. WSJT-X HRD log lookup and now also logging into the Hamradio Deluxe Log. I use the Hamradio Deluxe Logbook and for now this is the only log supported.
The program has got these features:

  • Look up a call to check if it is already in your log
  • Check if the call is from a not worked country
  • Check if the country has been worked on the operating band
  • Give you audio alerts if any of the above conditions are chosen active
  • Give You audio alert when Your call is decoded (Only one alert is send, until the QSO is logged)
  • Send You e-mail alerts if a new country or a new country on the active band is decoded

Note: Hamradio Deluxe version 5 & 6 are supported.

How does the program work?es the program work?

When WSJT-X has decoded the signal, it sends an UDP datastream. This stream is being used in my program. I grab all the CQ calling stations and look them up in the HRD (Hamradio Deluxe) log and also in the WSJT-X adif logfile. If the station has been worked before the band and mode is shown. If a new country shows up you will be noticed as well. An additional window will be updated with new countries. There is also an option that can audio alert you when a new country is detected.
Adding QSO's to the Hamradio Deluxe log is done using the log programs external Command Line Interface

Work in progress:

APRS alerts when new countries are detected. AGW packet engine is used as interfacing layer.

Log support: More log programs will be supported later on. When this part is ready the program will change it's name.
