Dear Joe Taylor, K1JT,
I am JA2BQX nobu. I think that logging software used by
many amateur radio operators in Japan is
[Turbo HAMLOG for Windows] (called Hamlog or THW).
http://www.hamlog.com/
I modified the source code of WSJT-X and
incorporated the function to
transfer QSO data directly from wsjtx to THW.
May I publish this on my website below?

WSJT-X already provides a UDP protocol that delivers information to
another program such as a logger. It includes two ways of accessing
logged QSO data: ADIF format, or binary log records. By using this
feature you would decouple the task of transferring log information from
WSJT-X itself, and you would avoid the very significant burden of
maintaining a forked version of WSJT-X.
If THW is not open to modification to accept UDP traffic from WSJT-X,
then a bridging application would be needed. However, that is a route
already taken by several developers. Maintenance of such a "glue"
application that interfaces between two others is much easier and
enhancements to WSJT-X and the target logging application come for free
rather than having to merge them into a fork.
If you choose to create a fork of WSJT-X you must give it a new program
name and maintain it and document it yourself. You must honor our
copyrights: except where otherwise noted, all algorithms, protocol
