- changed version number to 2.5.0 in main help page. - changed OH7AN to OK2CQR in all help pages as understood from your web pages "OK2CQR is back" that you returned to your old callsign. - went through https://github.com/ok2cqr/cqrlog/commits/master and added some lines to CHANGELOG. I'm still sure that not all things are in the list. Perhaps it would be good idea to add a changelog line as the first line of pull request text. Then it would be easier to collect them afterwards. This is not complete list. I would be happy to see more additions or fixes to current CHANGELOG also from others!

Backup your data often! BACKUP your log directory at the end of EVERY session!
|
|
All that you need to backup and store in a safe place is the log database directory
|
|
located in the ~/.config/cqrlog/database folder, or you can enable the autobackup function
|
|
in Preferences. This autobackup function creates an ADIF file with a backup of your log.

<ul>

<li><strong>Check your ports.</strong> You must be a member of the user group,
|
|
which has permission to use ttyS* or ttyUSB* devices.<br>
|
|
Open command console and give "ls -l your serial port name" and "groups" commands.<br>
|
|
There must be same group, usually "dialout" in both results.<br><br>

[saku@hamtpad ~]$ ls -l /dev/ttyUSB0<br>

[saku@hamtpad ~]$ groups<br>
|
|
saku <strong>dialout</strong> lock<br>

If not try google with "your_linux_distribution_name add user to dial group" to get information how to do the fix.<br>

</li>
|
|
<li><strong>Check that your radio is properly set up </strong>
|
|
<a href="h1.html#ah7"><em>(see here)</em></a>. Click the 'Settings' button and

check the port settings - ttyS* or ttyUSB* number and <strong>all</strong>
|
|
communication parameters.
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li><strong>Is the poll rate set too fast?</strong> Try a lower setting (higher number). Your qsos usually lasts longer than 5 seconds so even ẃith value 5000 the right frequency is there before you save your qso.</li>

<ul>

<p align="justify">The accompanying problem is an abonormally high CPU load. The problem
|
|
is instant polling of a non-existent (not responding) radio. Your radio setup is
|
|
probably incorrect. Try to downoad a default cqrlog.cfg from the CQRLOG web site
|
|
(www.cqrlog.com) and copy it into your /cqrlog/log_data folder. Backup your old
|
|
cqrlog.cfg before if you want. The default cqrlog.cfg redirects all polling to the
|
|
hamlib dummy radio (model=1] and the high CPU load should return to its
|
|
normal values.<br><br>Then you should set up your radio again.
|
|
Don't use too low a poll rate, a value of 300 is sufficient.</p></ul>
