HamCall Internal

Post by n4kjc »

HamCall is the only external service provider that I have active. It is the primary with no failsafe. I set this up so I can use HamCall with NO Internet connection. In this configuration the user name is not returned. I have support request logs available but not sure I should post them here. Please advise.

Thanks,

Is all other information returned just name missing?

OK we probably missed something because we were only provided with a test file from Hamcall not a full data file as far as I recall, we will check

Thanks,

I appreciate it. It's handy to have the name as a second confirmation that I got the callsign right when doing POTA. Also, a nice personal touch to recognize someone for making contact.

Daniel, The Hamcall developer sent he sent an email and is providing the full version of hamcall for you to test with.
See below...


I dealt with IW3HMH from Italy last year that works/worked with LOG4OM and sent them the entire HamCall database as a download. It seemed like they got the HamCall/LOG4OM interface working along with name, because they sent me a screenshot of my callsign information showing up in the log as a test.

I will email Terry a new database and details on what they should be looking for regarding the name fields.
