I have to wonder why?

Post by G4POP »

I have to wonder why a new thread that I posted last evening announcing the new release at about 20.15 hrs on the QRZ forum only gets past the moderators at 19.30 today - Aprox 23 hours later!

However a new thread by W4PC about HRD LLC posted at 14.15 today gets published at exactly the same time as my post :-)

BTW the W4PC post was announcing that they are going to add a QRZ logbook upload at some time in the future! Come on Rick, get your skates on and keep up!

The power of... I don't understand why they fear us so much... yes, it took 1 hour to implement qrz upload in Log4OM and they have the integration informations from much more time than us...
I'm pretty sure I'm not the Steve jobs of programmers, but some features are really simple to implement if you create a modular software and you can start from a good base...
Anyway, that's the game, let's go :-)

Daniele they should fear Log4OM.

First of all it is free
Second it is a very good program not very old
Third you are listening to the users and implemented as per their request which is a very good thing
Finally I have been using HRD for some time also and never got used to it.

What I can say of course is that there are still some good functions in HRD that I would like to see one day in Log4OM, I can give you a few examples such as an integrated sound recorder to record the QSO (using an external program to do that) but we could also think that while saving the sound it will name it with a custom format such as CALL-BAND-DATE.mp3
Also this DM780 is a really good addition to HRD for digital mode and I would also say that it is one of the best ones I have used and I am not using it anymore as it is not working with Log4OM.
Also another thing is the remote control of the radio within HRD which would be great to have one day in Log4OM also.

Anyway still Log4OM is one of the best I have used for a long time and I think I will stick to it for a long time :)

Thanks a lot for your good job and let's see if next announcement in QRZ will be published faster !

Terry,

One thing I have casually observed about your latest QRZ thread is this one seems to be generating the most interest if I gauge it by the number of replies.

Congratulations and I appreciate all the work the team is doing.

73,

QRZ's logbook has been down since yesterday (still is) , so I took the opportunity to plug Log4OM in the news thread about the outage. 8-)
