# Getting Started
|
||||
|
||||
This walks you from a fresh install to your first logged QSO.
|
||||
|
||||
## 1. Set your station
|
||||
|
||||
**Settings → Station**: enter your **callsign**, **grid locator** and **name**.
|
||||
These feed callsign lookups, the map, awards, the QSL card and the "my station"
|
||||
ADIF fields on every QSO.
|
||||
|
||||
## 2. (Optional) Connect a radio
|
||||
|
||||
**Settings → CAT**, pick a backend and fill its fields — see [[CAT Control]].
|
||||
Once connected, the frequency, band and mode fill in automatically as you tune,
|
||||
and clicking a cluster spot tunes the rig.
|
||||
|
||||
You can log perfectly well **without** a radio — just type the band, mode and
|
||||
frequency.
|
||||
|
||||
## 3. The entry strip
|
||||
|
||||
The strip across the top is the heart of OpsLog (Log4OM-style):
|
||||
|
||||
- **Callsign** — type it and the contacted entity's **flag** appears next to the
|
||||
RST fields; the country, CQ/ITU zones and continent resolve offline from
|
||||
`cty.dat`. If QRZ/HamQTH lookup is configured, name / QTH / grid auto-fill and
|
||||
a photo shows in the F2 tab.
|
||||
- **RST sent / rcvd**, **Name**, **QTH**, **Grid**.
|
||||
- **Band / Mode / Frequency** (TX and, for split, RX).
|
||||
- **Start / End time**, **Comment / Note**.
|
||||
|
||||
Press **Enter** in any text field to **log** the QSO. The contact drops into
|
||||
**Recent QSOs** below.
|
||||
|
||||
> Mode comes from the radio; the digital sub-mode (FT4 vs FT8) is inferred from
|
||||
> the frequency.
|
||||
|
||||
## 4. Look around
|
||||
|
||||
- **Recent QSOs** — your log; double-click a row to edit every field.
|
||||
See [[Recent QSOs and Filters]].
|
||||
- **Worked-before matrix** — as you type a call, see if/when you worked that
|
||||
entity, per band/mode slot.
|
||||
- **Main view** — two configurable panes (Settings → General → *Main view*): a
|
||||
great-circle map, the cluster, the FlexRadio or Icom console, Net control, and
|
||||
more. See [[Maps and Antennas]].
|
||||
|
||||
## 5. Profiles
|
||||
|
||||
Every setting is **per-profile**. A profile can log to the local SQLite file or
|
||||
a shared **MySQL** database (multi-operator). Create one per call / station /
|
||||
event. See [[Profiles and Databases]].
|
||||
|
||||
## Next steps
|
||||
|
||||
- Chase spots → [[DX Cluster and Spots]]
|
||||
- Track awards → [[Awards]]
|
||||
- Send confirmations → [[QSL Management]]
|
||||
- Design a card → [[QSL Card Designer]]
