Check out GridTracker. Similar to JTAlert but runs on windows, macs, linux and pi. WSJTx does not have to be on the box. It handles logging to many loggers amd I think N3FJP may be one of them. 73 Glenn VE9GJ On June 29, 2020 9:53:26 PM ADT, Terry Estes wrote: >Many other amateur radio stat

"a pair of equal and oppositely charged or magnetized poles separated by a distance." Is the 'equal' referring to the amount of 'charge' applied to both poles rather than length ? It certainly could be interpreted that way, rather than assume 'equal' length of the 'poles'. In that context Th

I ran FD with N3FJP (the FD version) and N3FJP logged just fine from JTalert (you enable ACLog in JTalert) - and never got the duplicate logs that went into WSJTx’s contest log because I did not recognize the caller fast enough and was using auto-log. Both N3FJP and JTalert were on the same mach

IMHO, this sort of thing is often better implemented as a program emulating the client's supported protocol. That program can then communicate with whatever downstream service is needed, in its preferred protocol. Even better is to apply some well defined modern application solution instead, li
