WOW all I need now is a radio, antenna, computer, electricity and food. Really thanks this helps a lot. Using this with a remote satellite uplink would really destroy a vacation with my wife. Pray for me.
wives are overrated.
Station Master is a most excellent logging program along with some very useful amateur radio tools.
Indeed it is!
thank you !
I just signed up and I'm using it. It's already super useful on day one. I had a issue with logging on mobile and when I messaged Stu on discord he was straight on it. Full credit to him for working on this and providing the community with something integrated.
This for most people is the one stop shop. It deserves success.
Thanks for the vid, thanks for the software.
Ah great!
There's a bunch of logging software etc out there, but this is by far the most fun to use.
That was the goal from day one so glad I'm meeting my own brief Jon. 73 mate.
Been using Station Master from the start and early beginings, couldnt be without it now. Thanks for the mention as well M0KCV
cheers Kev
Thanks for another great video Cal! This looks like fantastic software, I'm going to have to check it out.
You bet!
as a new ham this is all ive used - amazing bit of software that evolves weekly. My top feature is once you search a call sign it goes directly to the map. great for those people learning the countries and towns. keep up the good work stu
thanks Gary
I just built a PC for the shack after being a life-long Mac guy trying Mac Apps for so long... THIS might be the one! Thanks, Callum!
I have this. Excellent. RM Noise integration too!
Dang!! This is brilliant!!
Crazy cool. I like the stalker mode!😂
haha, it's a handy thing to have when busy in the shack, just set to follow someone on S&P and see what they get up to.
Just used my headphones and noticed this this is stereo. It sounds great. Big enhancement.
Yes, it's the little things..!
@@DXCommanderHQ That's exactly what I tell my girlfriend!
Great software 👌 love the sdr n the leaderboard is great bit of fun
Awesome product Stu, i have introduced 3 VK2's to it and they have downloaded it today love it best out there cheers M9
haha fantastic to hear! thank you.
Nice one!
Fantastic software great for community to I will have a go with this software this week.
You'll love it once you get up and running.
Darn amazing
As a new ham as of last October and just getting my first HF rig (IC-7300) and my first contact on 1/1/24, I was searching all over the place for a logging program that I could use. I am currently on Log4OM but this seems to be the one I was looking for. I have signed up for the trial to test the waters out and get it set up. I am struggling with the CAT control as it just keys the radio to transmit and doesn't stop transmitting until I force stop omni-rig, but I am sure it is something I have set wrong since I am new to all of this. Great work on the program Stu. I looks great and I look forward to learning all about it's features and test it out. I have already signed up to buy you a cup of coffee monthly after my trial, I am that convinced I will like it.
Hi , your OmniRig settings are wrong, try changing the HIGH / LOW values. Contact me directly if you have no luck.
@@G5STU Now that is what I call support and why I am donating a coffee to you each month! That was exactly what it was. I changed both RTS and DTR from high to low, and it is now working properly! Thank you so much!
Its great! I have just updated my subscription.
thank you!
very nice
I'll give it a try
Wow that's an amazing feature... they should embed this on new radio transceivers too 😅
Amazing for the Amateur radio community 💯🙏🏽
No doubt!
nice software cheers cal from on3vs
As a blind ham I'll have to check this out, as Stew mentioned several keyboard commands. I really hope that keyboard navigation works well and a screen reader understand the implementation of controls. Mapping the escape is always a good thing. Nice to hear a developer to mention the keyboard.

Hi Gena, thanks for your comment, please do let me know if you have any problems navigating with the keyboard. I'll check over the code tonight and see if there is anything else I can do to support screen readers. All the best , Stuart (the developer)
Wow thanks for a great video. I am so pleased I am retired, it looks like I have a lot of learning to do . Looks like this will see me cancelling my yearly subscription to HRD. Very impressive Stu, I am about to download and give it a go. Think I be logging on HRD for a while till I am happy but I will export the log to SM.
Nice one Steve, if your feel like we are missing anything you need just let me know. We'll do our best to add it !
Best of luck!
@@DXCommanderHQ 🤣
@@G5STU Stu, just left you a questing on your Live Demo/Tour
pretty good software stuart.
Thanks Alan.
Gov't is gonna love this...😂
Stu do you think you would add TCI interfacing- ( transceiver control interface)
Basic rig control is (I think) in the wings..
I tried the software. Couldn't make it work. If station master could make a video describing everything again, to a 5 year old that just got his first computer, I would pay for the program.
Great software with regular updates and enhancements, I like being able to start wsjtx from it, evening Stu
Great to hear!
I hope some AmSat locator can be integrated.. :)
I use Ham Radio Deluxe for rig control. Can Station Master act as a go-between?
I did get it working but not tested for a while. I'll check that this week.
Looks cool. Too bad I'm using a TS-430S. I'll need to upgrade to a TS-440 to play with the cool toys! Not sure if the TS-670 is capable, but it would seem like a waste to use such powerful software on 10 watts and four bands. 🤣
Hey Cal, what is that headphone mic you are using?
Yes.. HMD 300 Pro (warning, cable needs specifying!)
That seems I am the ABSOLUTE first from Hungary. 🙂 Wow.
HAHA!
I have the paid version but don't feel it's ready yet Still using N1MM or whatever it's called.
Hi, It's not supposed to replace your exiting logger (but can for some) It's an addition.
I assume its not available on the Apple Mac OS ?
Not yet, they are working on it. 73s!
awesome but a lot to take in at once. 73
thanks for watching.
Great, Facebook for ham radio
Ugh! LOL
Noooooooo! 😂
Do we really want Station Master knowing everything that we are doing ??? 🤔
GPS trackers!
Is there logbook integration into Maria db or other?
I don't know.. You'll have to ask Stu about that - he might pop along later.
No just SQLite ATM but no reason not to add DB server support. Would that be link to an existing database or just have station master have its data on a server ?
@G5STU - My HRD logbook currently uses Maria DB, moved it Excel due to Excel's limitations
Is it possible to change the 30 day free trial sign up? I rather prefer not to provide payment information in order to have a look around.
You can sign up WITHOUT free trial. See exactly here: czcams.com/video/liJ6xTiDwyQ/video.htmlsi=8ERieRI69gpumEE6&t=2567
@@DXCommanderHQ Got it, thanks.
WOW! can i link it to Ham Radio deluxe?
Hey Nick, please see the FAQs on the station master online site, there is a post there on how to do it.
thank stu great full@@G5STU
I refuse to install any trial that goes out of its way to hide the "cost" of a full subscription. I have looked and looked and can't find the price anywhere, which leads me to suspect that I need to sign up to a free trial before I am told the price. If anyone out there is not as careful as myself and has signed up for the free trial would care to tell me what the price is, it would be appreciated.
Just sign up for the FREE version...!
@@DXCommanderHQ So it is always free? Nothing to pay ever?
Yes that's right, if you do choose to pay for the premium version you'll be helping towards the cost of hosting and also helping Stuart the developer out for his efforts in making and adding new features towards the software. I used the free version for several months and didn't pay a penny. I now have a monthly subscription which costs me about £2.50 a month which I'm happy to pay.@@wonderingworld119
yes@@wonderingworld119 just a few less features.
if you click the START MY TRIAL is tells you the cost right there by the way !
Can your program be limited and used by members of a ham club?
Yes I believe so.. You can always check - and STuart will be along later today and will no doubt reply.
what do you mean by limited please ? clubs are free to use it for sure.
App for windows and mobile , how about Mac?
There is a mac beta in the discord, you can link RumLog to station master cloud too.
@@G5STUnow you have wetted my appetite❤
haha nice@@G7LJL-Steve_Murton
@@G5STU what is the Discord channel?
I can't think of a single reason why I would want to broadcast my activities to random strangers. It's like there wasn't enough surveillance already
Oh yes, imagine. SOmeone might see you on the cluster. Then before you know it, aliens will come and find you!
you mean like transmitting on amateur radio ? (I'll assume you're joking :)
Ok, the price is 2.65 L which is about 3.40 a month USD
For the paid - or you can stick to free.
Dark mode?
Yes
HamAlert works great without requiring others to subscribe. Will alert on needed POTA states and other such triggers. No omnirig version hell.
Hey this isn't competing with HamAlert :)
@@G5STU of course I know that. Your software is a great and growing social net of Ham stations. Can one follow the unsubscribed and filter alerts to phone or web app of need grids? If that’s all you need right now HamAlert is sweet. Can’t wait to see where your software goes in the coming years. 73
radio will become 100% computer & will take out all the fun of basic radio .
Let's get you to bed grandpa
@@minutemaidification And when your computer/internet craps out you're not gonna know how to do anything because there's no screen telling you what to do or drawing pictures. I'll stick to non-computer stuff as well. You can't even find a frequency without a display telling you where its at.
guess its not allowed during contest, right?
As it advertises your frequency ? @@applejacks971
Have you looked inside a radio recently..?
Pricing?
free for most stuff station-master.online/
What ever next hi. Still trying to get emails on my spectrum here hi hi.
haha, I started coding on a Spectrum +2 when I was 5.
hi cal i donth think its a free software
You can use it for free , with a few limitations.
It's free.. Watch until end.
subscription fees - i am put off by that
Did you watch the whole thing? It's free - but a paid-for-version is available with extra toys. Free works fine. Come on, get a grip.
so free account is no free!!!!
Which bit of this part is not clear? 42:42
Now still working, but saved for the weekend. Or a commute. :-) (Technically 2 commutes.) 73 de Tom HA5CST
I watched it about twice, and most of the information seemed to arrive on my side. At last. :-) Unbelievable complexity and functionality. Congrats for Stu to make it.
