Email aliasNow there is the opportunity to create an e-mail alias on HRDLOG.net.
The alias allows anyone to send a message to you without knowing your real e-mail address. For example, if you send an email to iw1qlh @ hrdlog.net , the email will be automatically forwarded to the real mail inbox even if the sender is not required to know it.
This function can be useful if you want an e-mail address easy to remember (callsign @ hrdlog.net) or if you don’t want to let your real address be known or if you want an address which doesn’t change during the time.
To activate the function Login -> Modify profile -> Mail alias.

It has been optimized the update of the ViewLogbook.aspx page,which now is able to visualize also the hour of the last changes to the logbook and the program used.
We are preparing HRDLabel version 6, which will allow to print the QSL just drawing the data directly from HRDLOG.net.
DropboxIt has been completed the integration with Dropbox so it is now available. Dropbox is the virtual box which make available for free 2 GB of space, attainable from all your own PCs and mobile devices.
From the page Backup & restore-Dropbox is possible to follow an easy guided procedure that allows HRDLOG.net to publish a daily copy of your own logbook on a Dropbox folder .
At this point, installing the client of Dropbox on your own computer, we will have a daily version of the logbook automatically aligned.
TwitterIt has been implemented a new page that allows the integration with the social network Twitter.
Once the integration has been activated, it will be possible to update automatically your status on Twitter (sending a Tweet) each time that :
Every new QSO
On a new country worked
When you are "On-Air"
Every band changeThe function will be active and it can be configured from the page Modify profile-Twitter.
Display of QSO - New type of scriptOne of the function more appreciated of HRDLOG.net is the one that allows to publish the own QSOs on the personal web site or on the own page of QRZ.com.
Furthermore, it is possible to publish information on the "OnAir" status, to enable the search of QSO, to visualize the results of the research divided for bands.
In addition to the two mode already present (Text and Image), it has been added the IFRAME mode which is compatible also with QRZ.com; I remind you that the "Text" mode is not functioning anymore within QRZ since the java scripts has been deactivated on the pages.
The code can be produced through the graphic interface at the page Login-Create Script; once you have decided the graphic aspects (dimension, color, etc) it is sufficient to copy and paste the script in the web page desired.
Server infrastructureIncreasing security problems lead us to abandon the previous architecture in order to move to a mixed cloud environment based on HyperV and VMware.
The HRDLOG.net server web has been moved to this new infrastructure.
Entities PageNext to the "QSO map" page, it has been located a new page called "Entities", from which it is possible to see the list of the countries we worked on.
The visualization occurs through a list of flags, an image presenting the number of countries confirmed and a graph from which you can see the progression during time of the countries in which we worked.
The last 2 representations can be uses also in external web sites (for example the own web-sites or QRZ.com).
As you can do for the "QSO map" page, you can deactivate this page from the Login page -> Privacy.
Quick linksFrom the new page "Quick links", it is possible to visualize the list of links useful in external web-sites (for example the own web-site or on QRZ.com)
To access the page, it is necessary to log in with your own username.
Instant QSLOn the page "Quick link", it can be find an advice regarding the insertion of a macro in DM780. By inserting this macro in the 73 message, it is given the possibility for our receiver to see his/her electronic QSL practically in real time (at the saving of QSO).
Many thanks for the QSO
Your instant QSL on http://iqsl.hrdlog.net/<his:callsign>
My paper QSL card is sure via ...
The best 73, ..
As described in the message, this iQSL doesn’t want to substitute the traditional transmission system but it just would like to make our conversation more kind.
The name Instant QSL (iQSL) substitutes the previous "QSL Deluxe".
Dropbox integrationThe experiment on the integration with Dropbox has started.
Dropbox is a virtual box which makes available for you 2GB of disk space accessible from every PC and mobile devices.
As soon as this first step will be completed, it will be possible to activate a daily copy of your own logbook in a Dropbox folder, increasing in that way the availability and security of your data.
By doing this experiment, the backup and restore voices have been reorganized and put under the menu "Backup and restore".
QRZ.COM has disabled javascript inside its pagesIf you are using javascript to display your logbook inside your QRZ page then you have to change the script.
To create the right script Login -> Create the script -> select "View image (no javascript)".
Now copy this script inside your biography page on QRZ.

Japan Earthquake - Emergency frequenciesMarch 11, 2011 - A series of earthquakes has struck off the coast of Honshu Japan around 05:46UTC today causing extensive damage to the country and also triggering Tsunami waves and warnings across the Pacific.
At this time there are no reports of amateur radio involvement in the disaster response but it would be appreciated if extra care was taken to avoid any emergency traffic. The IARU Region 3 Emergency Centre of Activity frequencies are

The situation is developing as it can take many hours for a tsunami wave to cross the Pacific ocean, more information will be provided when it is available.
