#wavelog

As I recently kind-of-partly messed up my log a bit (part of improving #wavelog, you may find the pr, fixed before merge ;)) I know about my log-backup quite well: There are nightly MariaDB dumps, which are part of a (deduplicated, versioned, compressed, encrypted) 'default' backup strategy of the server. The resulting backup archive has a 'sporadic' manual rotating offsite offline copy (read harddisks). Weak points: encryption key and software. @hamchallenge #HC14S

Thanks to at least @DJ3CE and @hb9hox for suggesting that I try #wavelog for my #HamRadio logging needs.

Yesterday, I accidentally completed @hamchallenge HC14 (which I had completely forgotten about) by implementing Wavelog in a docker installation running on top of local RAID on SSD in an AlmaLinux 9 VM on a Fedora 41 server, transferring all my various logs into it, and setting up restic to do daily backups of /var/lib/docker/volumes offsite about 1000 miles away. The restic encryption key is also backed up encrypted offsite. I also set it up to export my logs to the log aggregators I use.

To make the backups more robust, I also have wavelog set up to create adif log backups, and I modified the docker-compose.yaml file to put them into a system volume so that they are included in the offsite backups:

    volumes:
      - wavelog-config:/var/www/html/application/config/docker
      - wavelog-uploads:/var/www/html/uploads
      - wavelog-userdata:/var/www/html/userdata
      - wavelog-backup:/var/www/html/backup
...
volumes:
  wavelog-dbdata:
  wavelog-uploads:
  wavelog-userdata:
  wavelog-config:
  wavelog-backup:

I used it with WaveLogGate to log my massive 12 — 12 I tell you — QSOs in the CQ World Wide WPX Contest (SSB) on Sunday. (Was fun taking serial numbers in the thousands and responding with a single-digit serial. "Seven? Please confirm, seven? Zero zero seven?")

I'll expect to use Polo for logging when activating #POTA — its logs import fine into wavelog, and maybe someday that will get automated too.

I set up one Wavelog station for each park I've activated so far, and at this point, I have set up only a single log linked to all my stations. I might later set up a POTA logbook linked to just the park stations.

And as of today that Wavelog instance hosts two family members' logs so far. So that HC14S counts for two hams.

For this week's #hamchallenge : My primary logging software is #Wavelog. The webserver and backend database both run on virtualized machines in a #HighAvailability #Proxmox #cluster (same one that hosts this instance!). Those are backed up daily to another machine on site via PBS, then those backups are synced to a remote server running in a house in another city.

In addition, my log is also synced to both #QRZ and #LOTW every 6 hours or so, but I didn't think it qualifies as a true backup, since there is some data which those logs don't record.

DARC Wavelog - was geht noch so?

Am kommenden Dienstag, 25.03.2025 um 20 Uhr zeigen euch Lucas, DA1EE und Kim, DG9VH, was man noch so alles im und mit Wavelog machen kann.
Beispiele wären hierzu: Auswertungen und Statistiken, Suchfunktionen, QSL-Karten Management, QSL Label drucken, uvm.
Kommt vorbei, in unserem Treff.DARC.de

@mcdanlj have a look at #wavelog. It not only integrates well with many different QSL platforms, but also uploads QSOs automatically in the background.

No more manually fidling around with signing logs for #lotw.

While it is possible to upload to QRZ, I can not say how well it works, as this is the one QSL platform I do not use. However, QRZ works well the lookup operator details.

Anyone using #Wavelog know why there's a field on the account page to enter your Mastodon server? There's nothing about it in the documentation and it doesn't seem to do anything... But it must be there for some reason, right?
