Chapter 48 LOGGER32 Radio Auxiliary Software
In the era of pure radio, the predecessors in the amateur radio industry rarely have auxiliary tools. Personal computers are actually more strange and mysterious than the radio itself, so materials such as radio diaries are recorded in notebooks one by one. They send QSL cards back to each other. The data of Tonglian is manually counted with a pen. The workload is very complicated, but they enjoy it, because this is one of their pleasures.
With the advent of personal microcomputers on the historical stage and the rapid development of a very rapid trend, PCs have gradually entered the vision of hams. Ham itself is a group of people with high IQ and willing to accept new things and challenges. When they find that PCs are even more fun than radio, and more puzzles are waiting for them to explore and discover, many hams have turned to the world of computers. They found that the world is a new continent that is more vast and waiting for them to reclaim, which is more mysterious and free than the radio world.
Of course, the vast majority of hams do not completely abandon their ham identity, but are often active in these two related but very different worlds.
Over time, a ham began to think about how to make the computer serve his radio career.
One of the powerful functions of the personal computer is statistics and calculation. When the radio conducts communication, the workload of statistics on the communication data is extremely large, which usually takes a lot of time, and sometimes it may have to start again just because of a small data statistical error. Yes.
As a result, a variety of software specially designed to assist hams in amateur wireless communication has gradually appeared, and because of the natural convenience of hams' long-distance communication, everyone spreads these software in their own circles, sharing the experience of using the software and constantly giving feedback to the software author. Suggestions for improvement and various bugs (defects).
Some of the software made by the author gradually stands out. These software are not only powerful, but also specially used for ham. More importantly, these software are free. Everyone is very happy to share their works with their friends, so that they can enjoy the convenience they bring to them.
In the manual of guidelines for amateur radio enthusiasts recognized by the amateur radio industry, there is such a guideline:
"Friendship - send slowly and patiently as required, provide friendly guidance and discussion to beginners, and provide kind help, cooperation and consideration for the benefit of others."
Obviously, these software authors silently follow these fine traditions handed down by their predecessors. Without these basic principles, the world of amateur radio may fall into chaos and disorder, instead of being full of joy and warmth as it is now.
The world of amateur radio is a world full of warmth. Although the radio waves are invisible and colorless and the night sky is extremely silent, the radio waves are warm, carrying everyone's blessings and greetings, crossing the mountains, crossing the sea, and closely connecting people from different ethnic groups and countries. Although you may not understand the language, and you were completely unfamiliar with it before, as long as you report your own call sign, whether you are a master or a rookie, you will be warmly received and guided.
The software obtained by Duan Fei is one of the more popular radio diary software LOGGER32. The author of this software is BobFurzer, call sign K4CY.
The interface of the software is all in English. Duan Fei's English level is obviously good, and he is also very familiar with this software and easy to operate. Xu Wenjing has not reached his level, and he is not familiar with the software, so it is a little difficult to just watch it.
However, she also saw that the function of LOGGER32 is very powerful, which greatly simplifies the process of logging and statistics. As long as you enter key parameters, you can automatically perform calculation statistics. Moreover, through some special interfaces, you can also directly connect this software to the relevant interfaces of the radio station for data. Detection and monitoring.
On the right side of the software, there is even a window showing a world map. She can show the actual location of the radio station in the process of Unicom, as well as the trajectory and coverage of amateur satellites in the sky.
This function is particularly useful for amateur radio enthusiasts, because it shows the world seen with its own location as the center, and the distance on the map is also proportional to the actual distance.
The operator can easily determine the direction of the connected radio station through the parameters shown above, so as to adjust the direction and frequency of the antenna, and can also intuitively reflect the connected path and distance.
"Brother Fei, it seems that you are really well prepared." Xu Wenjing said sincerely.
"Of course." His brother Xu Wenle came over with a power amplifier at this time. "We have all decided that if we can't win the Asian championship of many people in a single unit, we will cancel our license from now on and never play radio!"
Xu Wenjing couldn't help but spit out her little tongue when she heard the words. She knew how much her brother's love for radio. How could she put down the things from childhood to big things? It can be seen how obsessed they are with the result of the game this time.
"Brother Fei, I want to write a newsletter and submit it to the newspaper. Do you think it's appropriate?" Xu Wenjing took out her camera, took a picture of the radio station and then asked.
"Of course." Duan Fei said with a smile, "But don't write the antenna outside, which is not good..."
Duan Fei did not go on. These antennas were originally set up according to military standards. If this is also reported, it will have a very bad impact.
"Hmm! I know." Xu Wenjing has been familiar with these things since she was a child, and naturally knows what to do.
So, Xu Wenjing wrote a piece of correspondence about this matter, and finally voted for it to the Central People's Radio Station in the name of their school's news agency. Perhaps because of the nature of the radio station, they were very interested in this matter and soon broadcast this article in the news of the day, titled "The Amateur Radio International Competition is coming, Beijing Ham gathered together to prepare for the battle". Not only that, Zhong Yun, an intern reporter at the radio station, contacted Xu Wenjing on the same day and said that he would follow up on the matter.
"CQWW_DX Competition is a grand event in the amateur radio industry held by CQ Radio Magazine in the United States. On the last weekend of November, World Standard Time, that is, two days later, there will be a CW mode, that is, a telegram communication mode competition. Hams all over the world They are actively preparing for the war during this period... In our capital Beijing, there is also such a group of hams actively preparing for this competition. They..."
The clear and beautiful voice of the announcer of the Central People's Radio Station came from the radio station. Lin Hong, who was busy on the workbench, looked back at the radio station and muttered, "There are quite a lot of people participating in this competition in China."
