QRZ lookup suddenly stopped working

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

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 I think so about qrz.com. I encountered the same issue on data retrieving yesterday for time to time

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.

Antony :D
