Version 7.3 revision #4

A few fairly minor changes for this release, which is likely to be the last update until the Autumn.
The prefix database should be updated when any new update is available - check menu/File/Latest Updates.

Log Input
Added but not recommended is new function to search callsigns - actively searching during callsign input.
This action is controlled by (menu/Options/Settings tab Search- 'Actively apply...to callsign input' & 'Search Simmilar Callsigns' which allows wildcard matching during Callsign input (same as Search Callsign mini Window).

Log:
Callsign Input: Option - changed behaviour, if callsign is deleted in auto-date/time mode - the log input is wiped - same as CRTL+W action.
Added Option to turn ON/OFF above action, if this doesn't suit style of operating, (menu/Options/Settings/AutoAdd "Callsign Input')

Log: BAND MHz Selector
.475MHz fixed bug in adding this frequency from Band Selector

Latest Prefix database update included
Latest Beacon Database update included.

8 April 2017

This web site and help pages are now at their new home and all should now be functioning well.

The final release of Winlog32 is now available in beta form.
Any updates in future will be included with this single download file.

As stated in May 2016, no future development or additions are planned for Winlog32 other than minor changes to the executable or ancillary files to keep the program functioning and up-to-date.

Appologies to those who may have had trouble with the web site outages and lack of download possibilities during 20-26 February.

I have been experiencing difficulties with the current service providers, some of this has been resolved today and the web site is back up.
However the online help pages are still down, but hopefully this will be resolved soon.

Due to these ongoing issues, it seems likely that I will have to move the Winlog32 web site and help pages again, hopefully to a more reliable service.

About the new Prefix database released 03 October 2016

The Winlog32 prefix database and exception list has evolved over a period of 20 years, and was a continual task, with new releases being made usually monthly to keep up with the ever increasing 'special' callsigns that do not conform to existing prefix/entity rules.
The information there-in was accumulated from various sources, including DX bulletins, callbooks and on-air.
In recent times, also have manually incorporated much information from Club Log, which has a huge resource of Prefix and callsign data available.

To future-proof Winlog32 the best I can, I have now enabled an inbuilt prefix update routine which will keep Winlog32 up-to-date with future 'exceptions' that come along.
For the moment, this function is still private and the end user will not have to do anything other than update the prefix database as before.

This is a significant update, and the exception list is enhanced with the incorporation of the Club Log Callsign exception list.
A future version Winlog32 will also take advantage of the increased accuracy of the Club Log data.

This is something I have been working on over the summer months, which unfortunately resulted in a lack of prefix update releases over that period.
The whole point of this excercise ..not only to increase the accuracy of the Prefix Database and functions that rely on it, but also less research time thus needed on my part to keep up with new exceptions.

For now, nothing changes for the end user, the only down side is that because the exception list is much larger, it will result in more processing time which could be apparent on slower computers especially when running the Log Check Robot through the Log.
The up-side is that in the future, Winlog32 can import and process the Club Log exception list, even on an individual basis if required.

Due to an ongoing problem with my service provider, I have a new email address, all old @blueyonder addresses are no longer valid.

You can contact me via **MYCALLSIGN(lower case)**@winlog32.co.uk

This address may also be subject to interuptions during the next couple of months, so if you have trouble with this, contact me via the Winlog32 Forum, and I'll get back to you.

Appologies to anyone who has been trying to contact me via any of the old addresses during the last couple of weeks.

25th May 2016

I will be winding down development of Winlog32 over the next twelve months.

After 20 years of continual development, I have decided that by Spring 2017 any major development will have ceased.
A recent health issue has reinforced this decision, at times this software has taken over my life, and it is not a decision I have made lightly or without consideration.

In respect of this, registration of Winlog32 after the end of 2016 will NOT be possible.

Support for registered users will continue on as before.

I am sure that Winlog32 will continue to be of use to the ham community well into the future, and for this reason, the web site, file downloads and online help will be maintained as long as possible.

07 September 2013

Beta versions of v6 are still undergoing testing and development at CUZ and with a few private releases to others who have expressed an interest.
All those who have expressed an interest in the beta testing = particularily with the LoTW enhancements have been emailed instructions and I am awaiting your reports.
If you have expressed an interest in the Forum post or via email and have not received this info, check your inbox/junk mail or email me again.

The Forum is currently down, this is an ongoing problem with the providers and this time I have had enough of Brinkster hosting - which I have used for the Forum since year 2000
I will be making arrangements to rebuild and move the Forum to another more reliable provider for the future.
Sorry for this inconvenience, but hopefully the new Forum will be far more reliable and at the same time, will improve it.
The Forum is not a priority but will work on this as time and interest allows, but expect it will be much later in the year before anything happens.

15 April 2013
As of April 2013, I may release a public beta from time to time for evaluation and testing purposes, the beta will preceed any general release which may not occur quite so often.
The beta file will usually be a full installation and can be downloaded from the downloads page.

I suggest that only experienced users download the beta file, new users my prefer to download the full general release first.

The beta will NOT be available from the program 'Latest Updates' function.
No documentation will be provided with the beta files, however the 'changes.txt' file should contain a summary of the changes as usual.

Included in current beta is basic rotor control, and some other improvments and fixes

Comments on the changes are always appreciated.

73 Colin, G0CUZ

8 January 2013
I have spent the first few days of the new year tidying up the Winlog32 web pages, a long overdue task.
Hopefully this will bring the html into line with current specs and generally will look more presentable.
The javascript navigation bar which is still causing some problems but will attend to it in due course.

No development work has been done since 5.8.4, as I have been making some changes and updating the development hardware.

Proposed in 2013 is some initial work on an in-built Rotator interface for Winlog32, this has previously always relied on third party software.
Easy-Rotor-Control (ERC) hardware has been purchased for development and testing.
Hopefully news on this later.

DXCluster

Email alert; added SMTP & PoP3 ports as user options.

Google Maps.
Fixed bug where window position was not retained.

LOG & Prefix database major overhaul.
Changed lookup algorithm and behaviour.....
Callsigns already entered into log display a Country based on a look-up of the existing logged entity country code ('Code' field)
If no country code is available in the Log or the country code=0 then the Country look-up will be performed by the Prefix database and "Country Name" will be displayed in red (as warning).
Callsigns (QSOs) entered in real-time, display a country looked up from the Prefix database based on the entered callsign and date (as before).
The Log Check Robot can update all zero country codes when LCR has ALL options disabled
With DXCC check enabled - the LCR uses a comparator to check that the Prefix database and Log entity code match.
Changed behaviour of the 'Callsign' field - when editing a previously entered or current QSO callsign - a new prefix country search is provoked.
Also changed some log functionality to try to prevent an incorrect value for country code being added when Log is edited or no code offered when QSO is not entered correctly.
These new procedures make it difficult to enter a QSO without generating a Country Code for the log.

Log eQSL upload.
Added upload errors to debug file (option debug=on).

5.5.1 Release 12 February, 2011

General *NEW*
Major update and revision to the Prefix Database, now with 10,000+ entries of which 6000 are callsign exceptions.
In able to generate more accurate entity information, the Prefix database is NOT backward compatible with versions before 5.5.1
Because of the greater size of this database, some performance degredation may be noticed, in particular with the Log Check Robot
It is ESSENTIAL to run the Log Check Robot through the log after upgrading to v5, this should be done first with all LCR options DISABLED.
This will correct any errors in entity codes that may be present.
If you are NOT interested in DXCC whatsoever then this is of no importance.
The new version does not allow end user correction of the prefix database like before, so any remaining errors should be reported directly for correction in the master prefix database (You can correct entity codes already entered into the log by double clicking the callsign edit box, also see below)

Added correct parsing of /P# suffix (etc) e.g. /P6 (previously indicated Korea, should be /6 = portable six)
