(Araucaria) CURIOSIDADE

Sexta Novembro 5 20:35:47 BRST 2010

Eu não li toda a informação, devia ter lido talvez, mas pergunto:
quando o radioamador de indicativo PY5FO passou para PY5RAS, como o QRZ.com ficou sabendo disso?
Pura curiosidade...

Subject: [ham-radio-deluxe] Changes to the QRZ.COM Database & Lookup Process
To: ham-radio-deluxe em yahoogroups.com

Some big changes in store for everyone—things that continue to make QRZ.COM unique for amateur radio call lookups. Note that this will not affect users of the XML data port service—and likely will not cause any problem for current callsign scrapers using the “free” lookup in HRD logbook. Here is the release made by Fred Lloyd, AA7BQ today:

“We're pleased to announce some new database feature enhancements to QRZ.

The first enhancement gives our web search engine the ability to find prefixed

and suffixed callsigns. For example, when you should enter PD3/XX1XX into the search

box, the database will search more thoroughly for PD3/XX1XX and failing that, it will 

bring you to the page of the primary callsign, which in this case is XX1XX.

This works for both prefixes and suffixes, or in other words, searching for XX1XX/PD3 

yields the same result.

The new prefix/suffix search capability extends to both the callsign lookup

boxes as well as to direct links to the website. For example, if you go to a

web browser and type in http://www.qrz.com/db/pd3/xx1xx you will get the XX1XX

record.

A part of this feature includes a new callsign alias database. What's an alias

you ask? An alias is another callsign that you may have used or been previously

issued. Prior to today, a ham could list only their most recent previous callsign

as an alternative way of being located. With the new aliases feature, you can now

list ALL of your previous callsigns, whether or not they have been reused by someone 

else. Your aliases will be examined whenever someone does a database search and if

multiple references to a given callsign are found, the user will be presented with

a choice of alternatives. Note that when a direct URL link is used, the returned

page will favor the current callsign instead of listing alternatives.

The callsign aliasing system also eliminates the need to make a separate database

entry for your temporary overseas callsign. Again suppose the callsign XX1XX was

operating maritime mobile (/MM) for a while and the call XX1XX/MM was used. With 

the new system, a separate listing for XX1XX/MM is unnecessary because all queries 

asking for XX1XX/(whatever) will be sent to the main XX1XX page. With this 

consolidation, XX1XX can list all of his mobile and overseas operations on his primary 

page, using the biography area for detailed explanation, QSL info, etc..

Adding new aliases to your callsign record is easy. Just go to your callsign page,

choose the Detail tab, then click on Edit Record. From the Callsign Update Manager,

choose "Update the basic callsign data". Look down the page to find "Aliases and

previous callsigns". In the Add box, insert the previous callsign you would like to

be found by, and include a comment if you like. Click Save Changes at the bottom

of the page and you're done!

A few notes about aliases:

The new alias facility has made the old 'previous callsign' field obsolete. During

the conversion, we have converted the 'previous callsign' for every record to an alias 

having the comment 'Previous callsign'. The result is the same. If someone searches

for your previous callsign, they will be led to your current callsign page.

Note that an alias can be any identifier. While we don't recommend it, you could 

use your first name as an alias. You could also use a tactical callsign from some

other radio service, if you like. The purpose of the alias facility is to create

other names by which you can be found on QRZ.

Also, note that we won't tolerate abuse of the facility, especially when it comes

to using the facility to harrass others. Also note that you may not use the facility

to degrade the search engine, for example, aliasing common words (e.g. 'the') to your callsign.

You should use the facility with due care and deference to others. If you have trouble

in recognizing deference, then we'll remind you with a privilege banishment.

Prior to today's announcement, we offered limited support for the addition of prefixed

and suffixed ('slashed') callsigns as regular entries in our database. Effectively

immediately, this capability will no longer be offered as it is made obsolete by the

new search engine. Those 400 or so existing slashed callsigns in our database will

be still available for a short while by substituting an underscore (_) for the slash.

For example, CU3DX/P can be fetched by searching for CU3DX_P. These will be removed

in about 90 days.

The callsign alias feature has not yet been added to the XML data server that is used

by the popular logging programs. We will solicit comments from the logbook program

authors and XML software developers before amending our XML interface.”

    É que oQRZ modificou a procura de indicativos.
    Podes ver que o teu está como "primary" e se entrares na página do PY5RAS, o indicativo PY5FO aparece como "previous callsign".
    O QRZ está agora mostrando o atual detentor do indicativo e os anteriores, o que me parece uma boa idéia, pois se tivermos um QSO mais antigo, poderemos localizar o colega, mesmo que ele tenha mudado de indicativo.

      Sim
      Realmente pertencia ao Rui Py5ras. Na verdade a uns 2 dias atras quando eu entrava no QRZ aparecia meu cadastro. Não sei porque esta aparecendo isso.

        Fernando, o antigo indicativo do PY5RAS era PY5FO, pelo menos é o que consta no QRZ.

          E normal?
