This web site represents the home of "Country Files", databases of entities (countries), prefixes and callsigns that are used by amateur radio logging software. There are three "flavors" of country files: CTY.DAT used by contest logging software such as CT, N1MM, NA, TR and Writelog DX4WIN.CTY used by the DX4WIN logging software WPXLOC.DAT used by packet cluster software such as AR-Cluster, CC Cluster and DX Spider maintained by Jim Reisert, AD1C

The HamCall.net database offers a detailed listing of amateur radio callsign divisions, organized by prefix, which is crucial for DXers and contesters to quickly identify the geographical origin of a station. Each entry includes a specific callsign prefix, the total count of callsigns registered under that prefix, and the associated DXCC country or entity, such as "AL9Z 43203 USA" or "3AOH9MM 237 MONACO." This structured data allows operators to rapidly ascertain the DXCC entity for a given callsign, aiding in QSL verification and award tracking. This information is particularly useful for confirming rare DX entities during contests or for logging contacts for awards like DXCC. For example, an operator hearing a "3Y0C" callsign can immediately identify it as Bouvet Island, a highly sought-after entity. The inclusion of callsign counts provides a sense of the activity level within each prefix, which can be helpful for anticipating pile-ups or assessing the likelihood of making a contact. The data presented reflects a snapshot of the HamCall database, offering practical insights into global amateur radio demographics.

The resource provides a technical installation guide for _MeshCom 4.0_, an amateur radio mesh networking project utilizing LoRa hardware modules. It systematically covers the setup process for several supported devices, including the RAK Wireless LoRa WisBlock Core RAK4631, T-Beam T22 V1.1, T-Lora T3 V1.6.1, HELTEC WiFi ESP32 LoRa 32 (V2 and V3), HELTEC E290, ESP32 / E22 modules, and the T-deck from Lilygo. The guide specifies support for the **EU433** frequency band, ensuring amateur radio compatibility, and details the use of an online flash tool for ESP32 modules and an embedded drive for RAK modules. It further describes accessing the MeshCom 4.0 Dashboard and Map functionalities, crucial for network visualization and management. Firmware configuration for ESP32 modules is meticulously outlined, covering essential parameters such as setting callsigns, country codes, and gateway parameters via a serial console like PuTTY. Commands for activating gateway mode, setting internet IP addresses, and configuring WLAN SSID and password for modules with WLAN capability are provided, enabling modules to function as either clients or gateways within the MeshCom network.
