Settings → General, beside the language. An operator reading 2026-07-30 as the
7th of the 30th month is reading their own log wrongly, and that is a display
problem.
Storage stays ISO/ADIF, deliberately and permanently: it is what ADIF
specifies, it sorts correctly as text, and a stored format that followed a UI
preference would make the log unreadable the day the preference changed. Exports
and uploads are untouched.
Two details that decide whether it actually works:
- The columns are rebuilt when the format changes. The formatters are captured
inside AG-Grid's column definitions, so nothing else would notice and the
table would keep the old format until something forced a rebuild.
- main.tsx re-reads the choice after the portable prefs are pulled from the
database. The module reads localStorage at import time, which is BEFORE that
sync — so a copied data/ folder would have shown ISO until the next launch.
UTC is not part of the choice and never will be: a logbook is kept in UTC, and
showing local time would make the display disagree with the QSO's own record
twice a year.
1. A language change rebuilt the column defs, which sets the anti-clobber
guard, but the effect that clears it listened to only two of the rebuild's
causes. Guard stuck on → every column change was silently discarded for the
rest of the session. Now keyed on the rebuilt defs themselves, so any future
cause is covered.
2. The cluster grid had no guard at all: the same rebuild wrote its defaults
over the saved layout, in the cache AND the database. Unrecoverable.
3. Worked-before and cluster read their state before the active profile was
known, so they looked up the unscoped cache key (always a miss) and then
saved under the scoped one. They now wait for the scope and remount on a
profile switch, like the main log.
4. GetUIPref returns an ERROR, not "", while the settings store is not yet
scoped — deliberately distinct from "unset". The frontend read it as "no
preference", rendered defaults, and the first column event overwrote the
good copy. It now retries instead of giving up.
5. The QSL manager had no storageKey, so it shared the main log's layout and
each rewrote the other.
Also: the DB write is debounced (a resize drag fired dozens of writes) with a
flush on close, and a rejected write is retried rather than dropped.
OmniRig reports the VFO pair (AA/AB/BA/BB) on the whole Yaesu range and never
the single-letter form. Only the latter was honoured, so every rig in that
family stayed pinned to VFO A: pressing SUB moved the radio but not OpsLog,
and a QSO worked on SUB was logged on the main VFO's frequency. The first
letter of the pair is the VFO being listened on — Log4OM reads it and gets the
right frequency on the same rigs, which is what showed the data was there.
The enum now wins over the Yaesu Freq==FreqB inference, which is only a
fallback for a rig file that names no VFO at all (the stock FTDX10 one answers
neither VS; nor FR; usably — verified on the air).
Split: the ON flag is still latched to survive a rig file that flips it on its
own, but the latch is now ARMED only after 8 flips in 30 s. A first cut at
3-in-15s was armed by the operator toggling split while testing, imposing the
6 s clearing delay on a radio that did not need it; a misreading file flips a
dozen times in that window untouched, so the two cases separate cleanly.
Distance (km) column added to Recent QSOs and Worked before (shared catalog).
Computed from the QSO's OWN my_grid/my_lat/lon first, falling back to the
current profile's locator: a log spans years and portable outings, so the
station a QSO was made from is not necessarily today's.
Locator: a precise QRZ/HamQTH grid is no longer overwritten by the cty.dat
entity centroid. The lookup runs several times per QSO and the provider gets
2 s; a slow second answer fell back to cty.dat and downgraded JN05JG to JN16
while name and QTH survived (they are only written when non-empty).
The OmniRig diagnostic line now logs what OpsLog concluded, not just what
OmniRig reported. icomnet.go: gofmt alignment only.
