Two stations, two computers, one log in club station operation

Two stations, two computers, one log in club station operation
Hi Jordi. I've finally changed our logging software in the club station OH2K to Swisslog, and on the main operating position this works great with SSB and the WSJT modes. Next goal is to do RTTY and CW as well, but I take one step by one step ahead, so I'm not quite there yet.

We used to use N1MM+ as a general logger, and that software has the option of using multiple computers on the different stations on our local network in a multi operator, multi station situation. Does the same possibility exist with Swisslog?

I have been using the Dropbox option for my personal logs for many years, but as you stated in the other post, this supports access to the log database from multiple computers, but not simultaneously.

I just read the post https://www.swisslogforwindows.com/forum...hp?tid=634, and I suppose that answers my question, but just to be 100% sure, I ask. If the answer is a definite NO, next question would be if there are any plans of implementing such a feature?

Again, thanks for a fantastic software, I learn something new almost every day, even after using SL for years.

Hi Tom,

Effectively currently you can't use Swisslog simultaneously. I would have to study if there is a way to do this. Sharing the database if possible, but Swisslog is working with 3 databases at once: statistic file and country table which are linked with the main database at the same time. I don't promise you anything but I will study carefully.

Oh, don't worry too much about it. We can always use the old system in contests and import the adifs afterwards. It's really not a big problem. I was just wondering. By the way, I'm going to JW-land Monday, so I'll be on as JW6VDA for about 10 days.

Have an excellent weekend!

I have to try some things but it would be very interesting to add this feature! I will investigate and I will let you know! I will also try to work you! Will you be QRV on FT8/FT4?

I will be on SSB, FT4 and FT8, propagation permitting. Right now the forecasts are pretty bad though, with a big coronal hole creating solar storm conditions with aurora, and no sunspots whatsoever. Look forward to work you!
