DX Calendar
Posted: 25 Jan 2013, 18:09
Dear Log4OM Team,
Best regards.
Some minutes ago I have received 425DX News, and it makes me think!
I would like propose an idea for discussion its utility...
it is devided in 2 steps. The most important is step 1...
Step 1
Create a DX Calendar.
We all receive informations about dxpeditions. In my case I use Google calendar, or even my smartphone (Nexus Android).
It woul be nice to have a calendar within Log4OM. and it could remeber us for the coming events.
To make it even more efficient, all the callsigns or Iotas that we put in Log4OM Calendar, those calls and IOta could also be connected to "alerts. using this procedure we do not need to put them twice ( one for calendar and another for alerts).
Step 2 - more difficult and a lot of code for Daniele
It is not necessary but we can refine a bit more...
SpotSpy, is a software that as several functions, but there is something that I found very interesting, it peeks up info from 425DX, and checks our log in order to show what we need, with this possibility, we have another step refinement: fill the calendar/alerts according the needs picked up from 425 (or other)
The idea is not use SpotSpy, it is just an example, the idea is think about the possibility to create the function within Log4Om.
Logger32 has this function, but it does not keeps the information in a file nor has calendar.
(In "DX Bulletin Reader " from VE3NEA software, we could have some ideas)
Dear Log4OM Team fellows, please do not be angry with me...
To have ideas is very easy, the problem is to put them into code; what a big headache.
Lets enjoy the weekend wiht Log4OM
