Behind the scenes we are working hard on a HamRadio Deluxe Logbook plugin. At the moment this plugin has a menu configurable with the number of entries shown and a logbook page with a search function on it. It looks very promising and we are closing in to the first pre-release.
You can see at the moment an example of the menu on this website. It uses a demo MYSQL database. We already tested this with a real database and what we got now works fine.
HRD Logbook
This is a brand new program of Simon Brown replacing the build-in logbook of HamRadio Deluxe. In time this build-in logbook will be removed from the main HamRadio Deluxe program like the satellite part in the past when a new separate satellite was launched. The database we tested is linked from my computer by a OBDC connection to a MYSQL database on my providers server where my webside resides. This means that if I add a record in the logbook program that this record will travel by the internet to this database instantly. This means also that the data generated by our plugin is instantly updated. The record is almost instantly requestable.
HamRadio DeLuxe is FREEWARE and a donation is completly up to you. You will gain no extra functionality when you donate. You will help only Simon (HB9DRV) to keep up with the costs of having the websites running.
HamRadio DeLuxe can be found and downloaded at the forums at http://forums.ham-radio.ch.
When? This is hard to say. We have to decide when this is ready to go public. I think it is rather a question of days instead of weeks. We will announce it here and make the plugin here downloadable...
