jLog V 6.9  -  Release notes

jLog is a modern Logging program for Hams that can run on all major platforms, e.g. macOS, Linux, Windows, etc. It offers a nice, clean interface and allows efficient entry of QSOs. It provides good real-time integrations and Internet lookups and logging.

The new V6.9 release of jLog is available from https://jlog.org and brings the following changes:

Enhancements

• Automatic or manual uploads to Club Log and HRDLOG once the QSO is saved
• Additional Key settings for QRZ Logbook per Config
• Three new Dark themes and a new Light theme gives jLog a more modern look (see the picture below)
• Option to switch themes automatically when the system theme changes (macOS, Windows 10/11 and Ubuntu Linux)
• Callsign Search window offers mouse right button popup menu with many options
• Tracker window offers mouse right button popup menu with many options
• Auto submission on/off master button on the Main window status bar.
• New DIGITALVOICE Submodes FREEDV and M17
• Date and time is visually expanded when leaving field in Entry window, e.g. dmmyy -> dd.mm.yyyy and hmm -> hh:mm
• Added ability to resize jLog size for HiDPI displays (necessary for Linux only)
• Additional Yaesu radios, e.g. FTDX10, FTXDX 3000 and many more
• ADIF Import shows a Progress Bar and has other smaller improvements
• Minor improvements to contest functionality

Corrections

• Avoid pop-ups being hidden behind QRZ and HamQTH pop-ups, making jLog "appear as frozen"
• Corrected WAS Reports. US was partially wrong, others failed to show
• A few cosmetic improvements

Known problems

• ADIF (.adi) Import seems to fail with V6.9 due to a missing parameter in the Profile.
  Please update the Profile as spesified in the V 6.9 Setup notes.
• The Linux (RPM only) version of jLog does not get access to TQSL when running the LoTW Submission command.
