Connection of HAM Office with the QSL management of HAM Atlas
3.1. Add scanned QSL cards to the HAM Atlas QSL management. Enter the callsign as the title of the scanned image.
(see also QSL administration )
3.2 If you now enter a QSO in HAM Office and a scanned card for the callsign is available in HAM Atlas, this will be displayed in the QSO input window.
3.3 If you now press the switch, the HAM Atlas QSL window opens. (see also QSL management)
4. The IOTA function is not further described here. Since HAM Atlas knows the exact coordinate areas of IOTA islands and island groups, the display of the location of the remote station is very precise after entering an IOTA number. (see also IOTA)
5. Locator display: Another special function after linking the two programs is the display of the worked and confirmed locators on the world map in HAM Office. To do this, press the "LocStat" and "Loc" switches below the map after calling up a map. The worked and confirmed small fields are displayed on the world map. The color and shape of the display can be set in the HAM Atlas program under "Program options - general". There you can also print out the map. (see also locator statistics)
6. Azimuthal and globe view : Through the link with HAM Atlas you can also use the azimuthal and globe view of the earth in HAM Office. This is possible in the normal map window as well as in the small map window during the QSO entry. The locations are also displayed correctly there.
