Aether 1.5.5 - Ham radio logging for OS X.. (Shareware)

Aether 1.5.5 - Ham radio logging for OS X.. (Shareware): "

Aether is a ham radio logging application for Mac OS X. Aether includes tools to quickly and easily log QSOs while on the air, as well as organize, search and track your QSOs later. Aether was designed for Mac OS X, and has the same kind of clean, intuitive, friendly interface you've come to expect on the Mac.

Here are just a few of Aether's features:

  • Automatic callbook lookup
  • Powerful awards tracking
  • Rig control for Elecraft, Kenwood, Yaesu and Icom radios
  • Full Logbook of The World integration
  • Full eQSL.cc integration
  • Maps, distance and beam heading calculation
  • ADIF (Amateur Data Interchange Format) import/export
  • Cabrillo contest log export and import
  • Address and QSL card label printing
  • Automatic dupe checking
  • AppleScript support
  • Many more...



Version 1.5.5:

New Features:

  • Added support for the Ten Tec Argonaut V.
  • Added support for the Ten Tec Omni VII.
  • Added support for the Ten Tec Eagle.
Improvements:
  • Added information about fldigi integration to Aether help.
  • Support for QRZ.com policy change requiring login to access (free) callbook data.
  • The cocoaModem integration script has better support for multiple PSK modes (thanks to Harry Hart).
  • Added an explicit option for microHAM interfaces to the rig control preferences.
  • Aether now supports an eQSL.cc account nickname. This support is global rather than per-log, and will be improved in a future release.
  • Added new AppleScript commands for determining DXCC number, ITU zone and CQ zone from a callsign based on its prefix.
Bug Fixes:
  • Fixed a crash that could occur when the serial port was in use by another program and Aether tried to use it.
  • Fixed a bug that could cause a crash if a callbook lookup performed via AppleScript took longer than 10 seconds to return.
  • Fixed a problem that caused importing ADIF files to fail if the file contained malformed data in the location fields.
  • Aether now presents an error message when importing a TQSL certificate fails, instead of failing silently.
  • Grid square field capitalization now tolerates leading spaces.
  • Fixed incorrect parsing of NAQP contest Cabrillo files.
  • Fixed problems with TS-940, TS-440, TS-711, TS-811 and similar Kenwood radios.
  • Fixed a bug that would occasionally cause callbook lookups to fail for callsigns that had been looked up previously.
  • eQSL.cc and LoTW passwords with / and & in them no longer fail to work.
  • FT-817 panel is no longer locked during rig control.
  • Fixes to FT-847 support.
  • US Callsigns with a PO Box address are now handled properly when doing free callbook lookups.
  • Several other very minor bug fixes.
Known Issues
  • None at this time


  • Mac OS X 10.4 or later.
  • Serial rig control may require a USB-to-Serial adapter.
