KComm, a logging and communication program, was specifically engineered for Elecraft K2, K3, and KX3 transceivers, leveraging the Lazarus cross-platform development tool. It operates natively on Windows XP and can be compiled for Linux, with potential for macOS, prioritizing low resource usage for casual DXers and contest participants. The software integrates with external applications like Fldigi for diverse digital modes and CW Skimmer for advanced Morse decoding, enhancing its functionality beyond basic logging. The design philosophy of KComm emphasizes utilizing the physical radio controls for operational adjustments, rather than replacing the transceiver's front panel. It facilitates keyboard CW operation via the Elecraft serial protocol and capitalizes on the K3 and KX3's built-in decoders for RTTY and PSK31. Additionally, KComm supports PSK31, PSK63, and PSK125 through the AE4JY PSK Core DLL on Windows and integrates with PSKReporter.info for spotting. While not a dedicated contest logging or award tracking program, KComm supports ADIF and Cabrillo export for casual use, allowing logs to be imported into other software. The author, G4ILO, ceased all software development, providing KComm "as is" without further support or updates; however, the source code is available under the GNU GPL for community continuation.

PSK Reporter provides a real-time visualization of amateur radio digital mode reception reports, aggregating data from a global network of monitoring stations. This platform is particularly useful for operators utilizing modes such as FT8, FT4, and PSK, allowing them to observe signal propagation paths and assess their station's reach. The interactive maps display reception reports, enabling hams to analyze band conditions and optimize antenna performance for various frequencies and times of day, aiding in understanding ionospheric conditions. Operators can filter reports by callsign, band, mode, and time, gaining insights into specific propagation events or evaluating the effectiveness of their transmit setup. The data collected helps in predicting optimal operating windows for DX contacts across various digital modes. Philip Gladstone is the contact person for comments and discussions regarding the system.

When planning your operating schedule, a reliable contest calendar is an essential tool for any serious contester. This DARC-maintained resource compiles current contest announcements for both HF and VHF/UHF operations, making it straightforward to identify upcoming opportunities for competitive radio sport. My own experience has shown that having a centralized, well-organized calendar saves significant time, especially when targeting specific events like the Clubmeisterschaft Classic (CMC) or the KW-Pokal. The DARC calendar highlights these German and European scoring contests in yellow, providing immediate visual cues for participants. HF contests are clearly marked in blue, while VHF/UHF events appear in red, simplifying band-specific planning. Beyond the major international contests, the calendar emphasizes regional events, which can be particularly useful for those aiming to improve their standing in local club competitions or explore less common contest formats. Special activity periods, such as those spanning multiple days, are also noted with a green background, ensuring operators are aware of extended operating windows.
