Callsign lookup is supported using the HamQTH (Free) or QRZ XML Subscription service (Paid).

Setup

QRZ

If you have purchased a QRZ XML Subscription you can configure Cloudlog to use it by doing the following

In /application/config/config.php update the following

$config['callbook'] = "qrz"; // Make sure this is QRZ

$config['qrz_username'] = "";

$config['qrz_password'] = "";

The username and password are the ones you use to login to QRZ. NOTE: Do NOT use the sign '#' in your password, when use remove it .. to give good search result !

NOTE: even if you haven't purchased a subscription, QRZ will return the following fields via the XML interface ...

  • First name <fname>
  • Last name <name>
  • Town/City <addr2>
  • State (USA only) <state>
  • Country <country>

... sufficient to populate a few fields in the log! There may, however, be a limit to the number of lookups you can do, although this may apply to the web pages only and not the XML interface (unconfirmed - at the time of writing I'm up to 246 lookups in the last 24 hrs without a subscription!)

HamQTH

If you want to use HamQTH you need to configure the following items

In /application/config/config.php update the following

$config['callbook'] = "hamqth"; // Make sure this is hamqth

$config['hamqth_username'] = "";

$config['hamqth_password'] = "";

The username and password are the ones you use to login to hamqth.
