Quick Start

Windows:
Download and run the RoverLog installer (rl-X_Y_Z.exe). 
From the Start Menu, run inied.tcl to configure RoverLog for your use. 
  Set your Callsign. 
  Set your Default Grid. 
  Set your Offset from UTC (positive offset means your time lags UTC,
    EST for example.  EST=5 EDT=4 CST=6 CDT=5 MST=7 MDT=6 PST=8 PDT=7).
  Set your log file name. Usually it's your callsign with ".log"
    appended. 
  Set the Contest .ini file name to make sure your score is calculated
    properly. 
  Review the other settings and verify they are correct. 
Optionally, run logheaded.tcl to initialize your log file and header.
To start RoverLog, simply double click on the roverlog.tcl icon or
  select it from the Start Menu. 

Non-Windows:
Install Tcl/Tk. This is different depending on what operating system
  you use. 
Unzip the RoverLog distribution. 
Run inied.tcl to configure RoverLog for your use. 
  Set your Callsign. 
  Set your Default Grid. 
  Set your Offset from UTC (positive offset means your time lags UTC,
    EST for example.  EST=5 EDT=4 CST=6 CDT=5 MST=7 MDT=6 PST=8 PDT=7). 
  Set your log file name. Usually it's your callsign with ".log"
    appended. 
  Set the Contest .ini file name to make sure your score is calculated
    properly. 
  Review the other settings and verify they are correct. 
Optionally, run logheaded.tcl to initialize your log file and header.
To start RoverLog, run ./roverlog.tcl from the shell prompt or double-
  click if you have associated .tcl files with the wish Tk interpretter.

All:
Ensure that your system clock is set to the correct time. (RoverLog
  corrects for UTC based on the offset you specify in the .ini file.
  For example, if your system clock is four hours behind UTC, set the
  offset to 4). 
If you wish to use RoverLog modules (Keyer, Rotor, Rig, GPS, or Clock),
  select them in inied.tcl before running RoverLog so they will start
  automatically when you start RoverLog.
The Modules (except Clock) can interface to different devices via a
  serial port on your computer.  Make sure the .ini files for each
  module are set up for the correct serial port (COMx: for Windows
  and /dev/ttySx for Linux for example).
