Logging Basics

The entry strip

The entry strip logs a QSO from any <input> inside it — press Enter to save. Fields: callsign, RST tx/rx, name, QTH, grid, band, mode, TX/RX frequency (split), start/end time, comment and note.

Callsign drives everything: the flag, offline DXCC resolution (country, CQ/ITU zones, continent) from cty.dat including /MM /AM /B and call-area handling (/8, /W6), plus ClubLog DXpedition date overrides.
Callsign lookup (QRZ.com / HamQTH) fills name / QTH / grid and shows the photo and a QRZ.com tab. Configure it in Settings → Lookup.
ESC clears the callsign (and stops CW).

Editing a QSO

Double-click any row in Recent QSOs (or Worked-before) to open the full editor — every ADIF field across tabs: QSO info, contacted station's details, award refs, QSL info, contest, sat/prop, my station, and a generic extra fields editor for any ADIF field not promoted to a column.

Bulk operations

Select rows in Recent QSOs, right-click:

Fix country & zones from cty.dat, or update from QRZ / ClubLog.
Bulk edit field — set one field across many QSOs (QSL/upload status, my station, contest, propagation, contacted-station refs, comment…). Great for flipping a batch to Requested before an upload.
Send to a QSL service, export selected / filtered to ADIF or Cabrillo, delete.

Find duplicates

Tools → Find duplicates groups QSOs by same call + band + mode (optionally same day or same minute) and lets you pick which to delete.

Notes

Worked-before matrix shows prior contacts with the entity per band/mode slot as you type.
Awards references are detected live as you enter a call (see Awards).
