Hi Terry. Are you getting an error of any sort that the TQSL version that can be installed from the normal Mint archive repository is too old to sign and upload logs? > If some knows of a Debien repository or has a cookbook recipe to > install TQSL Linux Mint please get me pointed in the right direction. > I have no Idea of the dependencies involved are, but I'm sure there > must be some.

Last I knew the preferred way to get updated packages installed on a Ubuntu installation was through the use of Personal Package Archives (PPAs). A quick search revealed the following PPA for TQSL: https://launchpad.net/~penguin359/+archive/ubuntu/trustedqsl (there is a link to instructions for enabling the PPA at the top of the page) Which I found in this thread: https://groups.arrl.org/g/ARRL-LoTW/message/36890 > Again, if you know of a way to get TQSL installed that a real newbee > can handle please let me know.

There is also Linux Mint Debian Edition (LMDE) that would likely require a different approach, but I assume you're not running that. 73, Nate, N0NB -- "The optimist proclaims that we live in the best of all possible worlds.
