Over 15 amateur radio bands, from 160m to 70cm, are supported by the _DXTRON_ web cluster, providing real-time DX spotting information. This service integrates directly with the _QRZCQ_ API, allowing users to monitor activity across various modes including CW, Phone, Digi, RTTY, SSTV, and SAT. DXTRON displays critical spot data such as timestamp, spotter callsign, frequency, mode, DX call, and remarks, along with geographical details like Grid, DXCC, ITU, CQ zone, continent, and country. Developed by _DO5SSB_, DXTRON v1.42 offers a user-friendly interface for filtering spots by band and mode, catering to both casual DXers and serious contesters. The platform is designed for accessibility, providing a clear overview of current propagation conditions and active stations worldwide. This web cluster is a practical tool for hams seeking to identify rare DX, track contest activity, or simply observe band conditions. Its reliance on the QRZCQ API ensures a consistent flow of up-to-date spotting data, making it a reliable resource for real-time operational awareness.

TN5R will be active from March 9th to March 19th, from 10 to 160 meter on CW, SSB and RTTY

Demonstrates the capabilities of DXtreme Monitor Log 14, a specialized software application designed for radio spectrum monitoring and logging. The resource details its core functionality, which includes logging stations across various bands and supporting multiple transmission modes such as AM, CW, FM, LSB, USB, and RTTY. It highlights features like the ability to select country formats for new databases and the **Schedule Checker** tool, which assists users in identifying broadcast stations for monitoring. The software facilitates tracking **Maidenhead grid squares**, particularly useful for VHF and UHF monitoring activities. It also supports QSL management and offers tools for efficient contact logging, catering to both amateur radio operators and shortwave listeners. Specific information includes its version number, Monitor Log 14, and its utility for DXers and other radio enthusiasts in managing their monitoring experiences and logging contacts effectively.

Provides access to a robust DX cluster node, G6NHU-2, running DX Spider software, which facilitates real-time amateur radio contact spotting across HF bands. This service is engineered for high reliability and low latency, ensuring rapid dissemination of DX spots from a global network of interconnected nodes. It features multiple redundant links to prevent data loss and maintain continuous operation, even if individual connections drop. The cluster integrates directly with the Reverse Beacon Network (RBN), allowing users to enable or disable skimmer spots for specific modes like CW, RTTY, FT8, and FT4. It also offers an extensive one-year spot history, significantly longer than most other DX clusters, which typically retain only a month of data. The node supports various lookup commands for callsign information, beam headings, QSL routing, and FCC database lookups, enhancing operational efficiency for DXers and contesters. Additionally, it permits self-spotting, a feature increasingly relevant in modern contests, and provides detailed instructions for connecting popular logging software such as N1MM+, HamRadioDeluxe, MacLoggerDX, LOG4OM2, Logger32, and N3FJP's Amateur Contact Log.

SWLTools, an iOS application for iPhone and iPad running iOS 17+, provides real-time decoding of various digital modes. It automatically locks onto CW tones, measures sending speed, and collects callsigns, distinguishing valid entries from misreads for a reliable log. For RTTY and SITOR-B, the app allows users to set shift and speed, then automatically tunes to the two tones for text reception, supporting marine bulletins, press agencies, and NAVTEX. The application also decodes WEFAX, building charts line by line for direct saving to the photo library, and processes ACARS aircraft messages, including CRC checks for data integrity and mapping of position reports. Beyond decoding, SWLTools integrates a GPU-accelerated FFT spectrum analyzer, a scrolling waterfall display with frequency cursors, and an adjustable FIR bandpass filter to isolate signals. It supports IQ signal analysis from receivers via two-channel audio interfaces, correcting mirror images. Flexible audio input options include the built-in microphone, USB audio dongles, and Bluetooth sources, with diagnostics for audio routing and buffer status. The app records audio, plays it back, and converts recordings into shareable videos, while decoded texts and charts are also savable and shareable, with all timestamps in UTC.

The LY4A DX Reminder application monitors five distinct DX cluster sources—DXScape, DXSummit, DXHeat, PSK Reporter, and Reverse Beacon—to alert amateur radio operators when a specific call sign appears. It supports a wide range of bands from 160 meters to 70 centimeters, including 60m, 6m, 2m, and 70cm, accommodating **CW**, SSB, FT8, FT4, and RTTY modes. The software operates in the background, checking clusters at user-defined intervals of 1, 5, 10, or 30 minutes, and persists across device restarts. Alarm functionality is robust, activating even if the mobile device is silenced, by utilizing the alarm channel and illuminating the locked screen. On desktop platforms, notifications remain active in the system tray. Users can directly manage alarms—stopping, snoozing, or deleting them—from the notification interface, enhancing operational flexibility during DX pursuits. Available in 15 languages, including English, Italian, German, and Spanish, the application is provided free of charge and without advertisements. It offers optional donation support for continued development. Installation instructions are detailed for Android, Windows 10/11 (64-bit), and macOS 12+, addressing common system security prompts for unsigned applications.

Presents the S21WD DXpedition to Bangladesh (IOTA **AS-140**) scheduled for 2026, organized by the Next Generation DX Club e.V. It outlines the project's progress, including final hardware and systems testing, and the team's successful arrival and activation from the target location. The resource provides a concise summary of Bangladesh, covering its geography, cultural aspects, and economic landscape. The page includes the Clublog Most Wanted ranking for Bangladesh, categorized by continent and mode, as of January 2026. The DXpedition aims to achieve over 70,000 QSOs across CW, SSB, RTTY, and FT8 modes, with a specific focus on RTTY (targeting over 2,000 QSOs) and **lowband** operations. The team plans a Multi-Single entry in the ARRL CW 2026 contest. QSO data will be uploaded to Clublog and LoTW, with Clublog livestream and daily free LoTW uploads anticipated, contingent on stable internet connectivity. The S21WD callsign corresponds to CQ Zone 22 and ITU Zone 41. Further details include a preliminary bandplan, FT8 operating guidelines using MSHV software, a VOACAP DX Prediction link, and an azimuthal map centered on Bangladesh. QSL services are managed by DJ4MX via Clublog OQRS, offering direct, bureau, and LoTW options, with daily LoTW uploads expected.

TX5EU 2026 DXpedition to Raivavae Island, **OC-114**, within the Austral Islands, providing a detailed account of the German/Dutch team's operations. The resource outlines the participation of operators such as DL2AWG Guenter, PA2KW Evert, and DK2AMM Ernoe, who engaged in CW, SSB, RTTY, and various digital modes. It documents the real-world challenges encountered, including significant equipment failures and antenna damage to 80/60m, 30m, and 10m verticals due to adverse storm conditions. The page offers timely news updates on the expedition's progress, noting repairs to a power amplifier's 10/12m bandpass filter, which enabled three stations to utilize amplification. Earlier reports highlighted power failures and the loss of multiple power amplifiers, necessitating one station to operate barefoot FT-8 with 100W. The team's persistent efforts to repair antennas as weather permits are also detailed, reflecting the dynamic nature of remote island operations.
