Frequently asked questions
Is QSO-LOG free?
Yes. It is free, with no ads or subscriptions, and open source under the MIT license.
Which systems does QSO-LOG run on?
Android 8.0 or newer, Windows 10 and 11, macOS 11 or newer (Apple M and Intel) and Linux (Ubuntu 22.04+, Debian 12, Mint). The phone and computer versions do the same things.
Where does the operator's name and city come from?
QSO-LOG looks the callsign up on QRZ.com and QRZ.ru and fills in the name, city and grid locator. If both are silent, HamQTH gives the country and region. Accounts are added in Settings.
Which export formats are supported?
ADIF and CSV for the log, Cabrillo and ЕРМАК for contest reports. A log can be imported from ADIF too.
Can I keep one log on my phone and computer?
Yes, through your own Google Sheet: QSOs from every device meet there when you press "Sync".
Does it need the internet?
No. The log, reference and calculators work offline. The internet is only needed for QRZ lookups, maps and sync.
Why does Windows or macOS warn me on install?
The desktop builds are not signed with a paid certificate. On a Mac open the app with right-click → Open; on Windows choose More info → Run anyway.
