Title: AM Rally Logging
Post by: WA2SQQ on January 29, 2018, 01:10:37 PM
I've seen several mentions about downloading "special logging" software. All my contacts are logged using LOG4OM, which like most logging programs uses the ADIF file format. I plan on participating, and I'd like to submit my logs, but ..... can I submit the logs in ADIF format? I really don't have any desire to use special software and than have to manually enter the contacts into LOG4OM.

I have not had time to write the ADIF import/export modules for the AM Rally logger.

If you use the AM Rally logger directly, you won't have to retype anything.

Can the log program you use export in some format such as CSV or similar?  That is a very common format, so it may have that capability.

On the plus side, I *will* be doing the ADIF modules for the AM Rally Logger (and QELog, which uses the same code base).   So, if you use the rally logger itself, at some point within the next few months, you'll be able to export the as ADIF, and then you could import the ADIF output into LOG4OM.

Steve, thanks for your response and hard work on this project. So I decided to open the manual for LOG4OM and discovered that it's easy for me to export all or part of my log in a CSV format. I also checked an HRD can do the same.

Many probably knew this, but for those who don't it's really easy. See you on the AM Rally!
