Enables operators to efficiently handle log import/export functions, print QSL cards, and maintain detailed records of their contacts. The program's network capability facilitates multi-operator environments, while its support for various digital modes and rig control protocols enhances operational flexibility. Regular updates, including beta versions, are provided, ensuring ongoing development and feature enhancements for the amateur radio community.

For amateur radio operators running Microsoft Windows XP or later, Lux-Log provides a robust logging and contest software solution, designed by Norbert Oberweis, LX1NO. It is capable of managing over 30,000 logbooks within a single database and image copy, offering comprehensive data handling features. The software facilitates data import and export via **ASCII** and **ADIF** formats, ensuring compatibility with other logging applications, and includes an integrated tool for converting data from other programs into ADIF. It provides instant feedback on previous contacts and country information during data entry, alongside static or serial value generation for contesters. Lux-Log integrates a versatile award module, currently supporting 123 definitions for popular awards such as DXCC, WAZ, WAS, US Counties, IOTA, and more. Operators can generate pre-defined and user-definable data queries, visualize statistics through bar/pie charts, and print QSL labels. The software also interfaces with the RAC Callbook and HamQTH, supports LoTW, and offers radio control for Icom and Yaesu FT-857 transceivers. Additionally, it supports telnet connections to internet clusters and integrates with K1EL's WinKey for CW generation, making it a comprehensive tool for both general logging and contesting activities.

SDR-RADIO.com is a Windows console for SDR receivers and transceivers. Designed for the commercial, amateur radio and short-wave listener communities, the console provides a powerful interface for all SDR users. Many SDR owners have made their radios available over the internet. Just look at the Web Servers page for a list of the radios you can use. You do not need a licence to use this sodftware with RFSPACE, FUNcube Dongles, Soundcard (SoftRock) and low-end SDRs.

JaRec is a multi-platform Java application which can be used to control your own CAT enabled transceiver (with support for audio) using a Serial/USB Serial/Bluetooth or network connection. jAReC can act as both a server and as a client. The PocketRxTx Android application can be used as a client securely to connect over the network and control (CAT) your radio transceiver remotely via jAReC server over the Internet or local LAN, with bi-directional audio support.

Presents the DBO274 Citizen Band mailbox, a digital communication hub accessible via HTTP and Telnet, specifically catering to **CB radio** enthusiasts in Germany. This resource outlines its functionality for Packet and other digital emissions on the 11-meter band, a segment often overlooked by traditional amateur radio operators but vital for CB users seeking advanced communication methods. The author, DH8YMB, provides insights into its operation, reflecting practical experience with digital modes in the CB spectrum. The DBO274 serves as a bridge, enabling users to exchange messages and data packets, extending the reach and utility of standard CB transceivers. It represents a localized digital infrastructure, demonstrating how the 27 MHz band can support more than just voice contacts, incorporating elements of early internet-like communication within the CB community. This setup highlights the enduring innovation within the CB realm, adapting technologies like Packet Radio for a different user base. It underscores the versatility of radio communication, even on less conventional bands, for those interested in digital data exchange beyond the typical amateur allocations.

Demonstrates a specialized DX cluster monitoring application, _DxWatcher_, designed for Windows environments. It processes DX spots received via Telnet/Internet, presenting them in a filtered table and a dynamic bandmap. The software integrates with transceivers, specifically the FT-2000, to read VFO frequency and enable one-click tuning to spotted stations. _DxWatcher_ version 1.0.3.0, released on 13 June 2020, includes minor bugfixes and improvements such as enhanced recovery from suspend mode. Key features include configurable bandmap position and size, automatic opening, and bolding of spots received within the last **10 minutes**. The application utilizes the standard _ctry.dat_ file for DXCC country analysis, allowing users to update it for current DXCC status. Source code, developed in C# with MS Visual Studio 2008, is freely available, encouraging modification and sharing while requesting retention of the original author's callsign.

Remote Ham Radio via WebRTC Audio Raspberry Pi 3. Stream Transceiver Audio to and from the remote station though a Browser using WebRTC.

Ham radio communication in the VHF and UHF bands, which was previously dominated by analog Frequency Modulation (FM), is increasingly incorporating Digital Voice (DV) modes. DV transceivers digitize audio and offer benefits like as signal integrity, encoded caller ID, and bandwidth savings. Today D-STAR, DMR and Yaesu System Fusion (YSF) are popular DV formats, each with its own set of features but mainly incompatible with the others. Internet access with Voice Over Internet Protocol (VoIP) expands DV communication worldwide. Repeaters and personal hotspots expand DV capabilities, enabling seamless worldwide connections. However, implementing DV frequently necessitates learning new technologies and negotiating network complexity.
