Demonstrates a cloud-based suite of tools for amateur radio operations, eliminating local software installation. The platform integrates a comprehensive logbook with import/export functionality, an _eMap_ application displaying DX spots, user locations, and grayline data, alongside a dynamic band map derived from DX cluster information. It also provides a _vQSL_ system for QSL management and a mailbox with QSO verification. Users can access a Web DX cluster to monitor spots and _DXCC_ status, or connect via Telnet using external programs like _Logger32_ or Ham Radio Deluxe. The cluster supports advanced spot filtering by QRG, spot call, spot from, and origin, with configurable mail alerts based on IARU zone filters. Additional features include a real-time chat for skeds, azimuth/distance calculations from a user's QTH (with QRA locator), a search engine for spot and logbook databases, a band status matrix, and a propagation tool for MUF calculations, leveraging data from N0NBH.

Cloudlog Helper addresses the need for streamlined, automated logging of amateur radio contacts, particularly for operators utilizing digital modes like FT8 or those with limited system resources. This utility syncs real-time rig data and QSO information to various logging platforms, including _Cloudlog_ and Wavelog, supporting mainstream transceivers. It integrates seamlessly with popular digital mode software such as JTDX and WSJT-X, ensuring that contact details are captured and uploaded without manual intervention. Operators can compile the software themselves and configure essential settings, including their Maidenhead locator, Cloudlog server address, API key, and station ID. The application's design prioritizes efficiency and portability, making it a practical solution for hams who prefer automated logging processes. While an unofficial community project, Cloudlog Helper provides a robust framework for automating the often-tedious task of logging, supporting multiple logging services beyond its primary integration. It offers a direct method for hams to maintain accurate and up-to-date logbooks with minimal effort, potentially improving their DXCC or other award tracking by ensuring no QSO is missed.

Demonstrates various technical projects and tutorials for amateur radio operators, focusing on digital modes, monitoring, and station setup. It covers topics such as implementing a _WSPR_ station, setting up ADS-B reception, configuring a _DXSpider_ cluster, and utilizing monitoring tools like Prometheus and Grafana. The resource provides practical guides for integrating modern IT solutions with ham radio activities, including Docker and Linux environments for radio applications. This site also features a publicly accessible online logbook, offering detailed statistics on QSOs by band, mode, and geographical zone, with visual mapping of contacts. It includes a comprehensive amateur radio lexicon, explaining hundreds of terms, and provides a real-time display of the F4HXN station's local weather conditions. The resource also aggregates information on upcoming ham radio events and offers a **SWR simulator** for antenna analysis, allowing users to visualize ROS changes based on frequency and antenna parameters.
