QRZ lookup suddenly stopped working

Post by VK7XX »

As of starting up Log4om this morning, my automatic QRZ lookup is no longer working. (It was working up until shut down last night).

I have been in to settings/options/settings1 and changed the settings to 'no external sources' and saved.... I then went back in to setup again and selected 'Use QRZ.COM' , re typed the username and password and again saved. I did this to try to force things along, but the auto lookup is still not working however I can do lookups all via my web browser (I also logged in and out of the QRZ web site to double check my password)

Any suggestion re what else I could do would be appreciated.

John,
We think there is a problem at QRZ with their XML lookup going down, see what happens in the next few hours and meanwhile perhaps use HamQTH?

Hi,
Yes, HamRadioDeluxe users were also complaining about lack of QRZ.COM yesterday!

Bye the way I have just downloaded LO4OM and FLDIGI and got them talking to each other. I am hoping to ditch HRD soon (after many years of use) because your program looks great.
At present I am running them all side by side seeing how things go.
Regards, Antony

Thanks Terry,

Yes I used one or two videos for getting the log setup and talking to fldigi. Very instructive.
Regards,
Antony :D
