I'm using the Writelog Newbie version 10.90 for the upcoming National
Weather Service Skywarn Special Event (KL7FWX) here in Fairbanks and
although I've loaded the correct and latest version of the country-files dta
files to help, I'd like to be able to display information within the QRZ -
XML database too.  I have the paid subscription.  I'd like the newbie radio
operators and participants to view on the screen the  Name, Address or at
least State and some other pertinent information that is in the QRZ dataset.
Is there any way to do that?  Maybe even as an external link thru Writelog?
Optimally, I'd like to have Call sign, Name, State and Distance displayed as
each call is logged.  Is there another database I need to subscribe to that
would work?

 

In the past, we used Ham Radio Deluxe and integration was just a couple of
clicks to integrate to an external database.  Writelog however seems to be
more friendlier towards people with zero logging experience.  Everyone I
show it to is pleased at its simplicity and it's become our Skywarn standard
now.

 

Ideas and suggestions and tips appreciated.

 

Thanks
Dan KL1JP
