Grig is a freeware simple Ham Radio control (CAT) program based on the Ham Radio Control Libraries (Hamlib). It is intended to be highly generic presenting the user to the same graphical user interface regardless of which radio is being controlled. Grig supports the most commonly used CAT commands that are implemented by Hamlib, and integrates well with other ham radio programs like Xlog and gMFSK. Grig has been developed on Linux, but has been ported on Mac and Windows OS.

CQiNet is a family of programs that combine Ham Radio with the Internet using Voice over IP (VoIP) technology. Two programs are currently in the family, "theBridge" and echoLinux. Thebridge is a iLink/EchoLink compatable conference bridge that runs under various versions of Unix as well as Windows. EchoLinux is a EchoLink client program for the Linux operating system.

VQLog 3.1 - 782 is a shareware logbook program designed for Windows operating systems (95, 98, NT, 2000, ME, XP, Vista, 7, 10, or later), supporting resolutions of 800x600 or higher. It can also operate on macOS and Linux via virtualization software like Virtual PC for MAC, Oracle VirtualBox, or VMware. The software facilitates QSO access by date, callsign, prefix, square, DXCC, and other parameters, offering robust import capabilities for ADIF, Cabrillo, and ASCII files from various contest and logbook programs. Key features include comprehensive award tracking for DXCC, WAZ, WAC, WPX, WAS, IOTA, TPEA, DIE, VUCC, 100EACW, and up to 30 user-defined awards. It generates customizable summaries and graphical statistics for QSO activity, DX contests, Most Wanted Squares (MWS), propagation openings, and prefixes. VQLog supports DX-Spot reception and processing from DX-Cluster and PSK-Reporter with programmable warnings, integrates with callbook services like QRZ.COM and Buckmaster's CD, and offers online lookup. Electronic QSL and log upload support extends to LoTW, eQSL.cc, Clublog, and DXMAPS, with real-time updates for online logs. The program provides extended QSO information for VHF-DXers, including separate TX/RX frequencies, start/end times, propagation modes, and specific entry fields for MS, EME, and Tropo. CAT support for rig control and interfaces with ARSWIN and PstRotator for azimuth/elevation control are also included.
