A program under development to analyze a hamradio amateur log.
This is version 0.2alpha, so there might be bugs (no, not Vibroplex bugs).
Currently it can load Cabrillo and ADIF-files. If it is missing information (eg with a Cabrillo), it will download those details from QRZ. The program creates a cache-file (a copy of the ADIF/Cabrillo, with additional details), so it won't need to download them everytime you open the file.
The main page is a map with plots of the location of the station. Moving the mouse on top shows the callsign. The map can zoomed in to. They are tiles downloaded from Openstreetmap, and also stored in the cache directory. You can select contacts on any combination of the bands. It has a playback function which starts at the first QSO in the list, up to the last. The prupose is to study the propagation behaviour. Currently it steps forward in 1 minute steps, but you can drag the play-icon aling the timeline as well. The program remembers the 10 last files, and loads them from teh cache.
General overview shows the amount of contacts per band per entity/country. You can sort on any of the columns. Bands selection is: All bands 160-10m, Traditional contest bands, Or only the bands found in the log.
Contact list shows a list of all QSO's sorted on time. You can sort on any of the columns. Right click on the top-bar and you can add fields for the ITU and CQ-zones, country name and grid-locator.
Direction shows the amount of contacts towards a direction from your QTH, plotted on an azimuthal map. It has a coarse setting (rounded off to the closest 5 degress), or a fine setting (rounded off to the closest degree) which can be changed by clicking the button. Put the cursor on the line and it shows the amount of contacts towards that direction. If the selection is All, it shows the contacts cumulative, and moving the mouse on top of the line gives the numerical presentation. If the setting is for a single band, it will only show the total amount on that band towards that direction.
Totals shows amount of contacts per mode on each band (bug: shows FT8 as RTTY).
Countries shows the amount of QSO's per country. Can be sorted on any of the columns.
Zones shows the amount of contacts per ITU or CQ zone. You can select between all zones, or show only the zones you worked. You will also see the countries, sorted on prefix with the amount of contacts for that country in that zone.
Under Tools General, set your IARU region. Station, your gridlocator goes here. QRZ.com, your QRZ id & password.
The program is in C++ for QTCreator 19 and should compile in Windows and Linux (Fedora). I don't have a Mac, but might work there as well.
Comments? Bugs? Requests? My email on QRZ is good.
