Call Book Log 3
A web-based ham radio logging solution for self-hosting with MySQL/MariaDB and PHP.
Description
Call Book Log 3.0 is a web-based logging solution for amateur radio operators, designed for self-hosting on a web server with MySQL/MariaDB and PHP 7+ support. It provides a mobile-friendly interface for viewing, adding, editing, deleting, backing up, and restoring QSO logs. The software features a streamlined setup process, allowing users to quickly deploy a personal logging system accessible via any web browser. Key functionalities include displaying the last 5 contact dates for previously worked stations, enhancing log management by providing immediate historical context during QSO entry. The system also includes a central administrative section for authenticated users to manage log entries.
The 3.0 version represents a significant code overhaul, focusing on improved performance and a more *visually appealing* user experience compared to earlier iterations. Enhancements include better pagination, a redesigned menu with icons, and color-changing rows for improved readability. The add log page now incorporates a one-click time update feature, addressing user feedback regarding time synchronization during rapid QSO entry. This iteration builds upon previous versions like 2.1, which corrected an automatic UTC date bug, and 2.0, which featured a full rewrite to resolve browser quirks and optimize search functions. The software's evolution demonstrates a commitment to functional stability and user interface refinement.
