cabrillo logging software for linux	Reply
by KC0SHZ on October 21, 2009	Mail this to a friend!
We are using a current distro of Fedora. I would like to receive recommendations regarding Linux based logging programs that will generate a contest log in Cabrillo format (for the CQWW SSB contest.)

There's tlf. It is mostly unmaintained, though. xlog can also output cabrillo. I used it for my first 10000 qso's, contest & otherwise, and also for abt. 500 qso's which xlog never saved to disk, on two separate occasions. So I can't recommend it. I've reluctantly moved my radio computer over to Windows. (Linux has been my main o/s since the mid nineties.)

I just type my Cabrillo files in manually in GNU Emacs. Not a great solution, but that's what I've done for several years. For some contests, I've had to run my ascii text files through 'unix2dos' to change the end-of-line delimiter (which is different in Windows than in Unix). But I've never had to do this for ARRL contests, just some state QSO parties and such. The Cabrillo standard is documented at: http://www.kkn.net/~trey/cabrillo/ 73 Scott W5ESE
