IOTA is an official ADIF field, and almost everything for it was already here:
the qso table has carried my_iota since the first migration, the insert and scan
handle it, and both ADIF import and export write it. The one missing link was
the station profile, so the reference had to be typed on every contact of an
island activation, or added afterwards in a bulk edit.
Migration 0025 adds the column; it joins my_sota_ref and my_pota_ref in the
profile, in the Station Information panel, and in the same stamp-if-empty block
that fills the other My* fields on a logged QSO.
Uppercased and trimmed on save. ADIF spells it EU-005, and an operator typing
"eu-005" would otherwise put a reference no award matcher recognises on every
QSO of an activation - the kind of mistake you only find months later.
Design flaw: the SQLite backend conflated the app/config database (opslog.db —
settings + profiles) with the QSO logbook. connectLogbook returned a.db for any
non-MySQL profile, so the ONLY way to get a separate SQLite logbook was the
whole-app "change database location" pointer — which swapped config + profiles
too, wiping the operator's setup (reported: creating Jerem.db lost all configs).
profile.ProfileDB gains a Path field: a non-empty path routes that profile's
logbook to its own SQLite file (db.Open creates + migrates it on first use),
while opslog.db keeps settings/profiles. connectLogbook opens the file; empty
path = shared db (unchanged default, backward compatible). MySQLSettings carries
sqlite_path; Get/Save wire it through.
UI: the Database panel gains a third backend option "SQLite — separate file"
with a file picker, and now clearly labels the shared application database
(settings + profiles) vs this profile's logbook, so the two are never confused.
Backend (Go 1.25 / Wails v2):
- QSO storage on SQLite (modernc) with embedded migrations (0001..0005)
- Streaming ADIF import (batch insert) + WorkedBefore per callsign and DXCC
- Callsign lookup with QRZ.com + HamQTH providers (primary/failsafe routing)
and SQLite-backed TTL cache
- DXCC resolver from cty.dat (auto-download, longest-prefix-match)
- Multi-profile operator identities (home/portable/SOTA/contest) — every
QSO stamps MY_* from the active profile
- CAT control via OmniRig COM on a single OS-locked goroutine, with
bidirectional sync (freq/mode/band/split/VFOs) and Rig1/Rig2 hot-swap
- Settings store (key/value), CAT debug log at %APPDATA%/HamLog/cat.log
Frontend (React 18 + TypeScript + Tailwind v4 + shadcn-style):
- Single-row entry strip with CAT-aware band/mode/freq, RST, Start/End
UTC, per-field locks (band/mode/freq/start/end) for backdated QSOs
- Topbar: live freq (MHz.kHz.Hz dotted), live UTC, band/mode/SPLIT badges,
CAT pill with rig selector and clickable Azimuth pill (rotor TODO)
- Settings tree: Profiles (Log4OM-style manager), Station Information
(edits the active profile), unified Callsign Lookup with Test buttons,
Bands/Modes lists, CAT
- Worked-before matrix (band × mode × class) with new-DXCC highlighting
- ADIF import from menu + Maintenance > Refresh cty.dat
