Spothole aggregates real-time amateur radio spots from various sources, including traditional **DX clusters** and specialized outdoor activity programs like POTA and SOTA. The platform provides a highly customizable web interface where users can configure display options such as DX and DE continents, local time, and a 'ping' notification for new spots. Users can also adjust the number of spots displayed and select from several UI color schemes, including PSK Reporter and Ham Rainbow. The tool integrates with external callbook services like QRZ.com and HamQTH, allowing users to remember login credentials for seamless data reloading. A distinctive feature is the ability to input a personal grid square and manage lists of 'worked' and 'wanted' callsigns. Wanted callsigns, entered as space- or comma-separated lists, receive a gold highlight when a matching DX callsign appears in the spot feed, aiding in targeted DXing efforts. Beyond the interactive web interface, Spothole offers a universal JSON **API**, enabling developers to build custom applications leveraging its aggregated spotting data.

The State QSO Party Challenge is an annual program recognizing amateur radio operators' participation in U.S. State and Canadian Province QSO parties. To qualify for the SQP Challenge, participants must make at least two QSOs in a minimum of two SQP Approved QP contests and submit their scores to 3830Scores.com. The site details the SQP Mobile/Portable Challenge, an overlay competition encouraging mobile/portable operations, with scoring identical to the main SQP Challenge: (Number of QPs entered) x (Number of QSOs) = Score. Eligibility for the Mobile/Portable Challenge requires prior qualification for the SQP Challenge. The website also mentions a State QSO Party Club Challenge and provides contact information for questions. The 2026 SQP Challenge will be dedicated to Stan Zawrotny, K4SBZ, a key team member instrumental in the program's development. Participants are recognized for reaching five levels of achievement: Bronze, Silver, Gold, Platinum, and Diamond. Scores are calculated by totaling reported contacts and multiplying by the number of SQPs entered year-to-date, encouraging more entries and longer operating times. The Worked All QSO Parties (WAQP) program, sponsored by Icom America, offers certificates for participating in at least 50% of approved contests, with a goal of participating in all. WAQP requires submitting a log with at least two valid contacts to the contest manager, in addition to the 3830scores.com submission.
