Build your mobile antenna which outperforms Hustler by 10db and ATAS-100 by 18db. From 80 to 10m. The HB9ABX mobile HF antenna, designed for 10 to 80 meters, was developed by Felix Meyer and outperforms commercial antennas like HUSTLER and YAESU ATAS-100/120 in field tests. Made from fiberglass rods and enamelled copper wire, it includes a loading coil with adjustable taps for tuning across bands. Installation requires solid grounding, and adjustments are made via whip length and coil settings. An antenna tuner ensures optimal SWR. Users must handle fiberglass with care due to health risks. This design proved highly effective in South America and Europe.

Facilitates efficient logging of amateur radio contacts, offering a robust solution for hams managing their station activities. The software integrates _CAT control_ capabilities, allowing direct interfacing with popular transceivers from manufacturers like Yaesu, Icom, and Kenwood. This feature streamlines the logging process by automatically capturing frequency, mode, and other QSO details directly from the radio, reducing manual entry errors and improving operational efficiency during contests or DXing. _HAM-LCT_ includes a comprehensive database, enabling users to store and retrieve contact information, QSL data, and other relevant details for each QSO. The program supports various operating modes and provides tools for searching and filtering log entries, which is beneficial for award tracking and station analysis. Its design focuses on providing a user-friendly interface for everyday logging tasks. While the original author, _HB9CQV_, has discontinued development of HAM-LCT in favor of a newer logging application, this version remains available as a functional freeware option for Windows users seeking a dedicated logbook with integrated rig control.

Demonstrates a very fast and effective logbook solution for amateur radio, **HAM-LOG** by HB9CQV, which operates as freeware and supports multiple languages including German and English. This application is designed to be self-running, even from USB devices, making it a portable option for hams on the go. Its database capacity is practically unlimited, capable of handling up to a billion QSOs, a significant advantage for active DXers and contesters. The software offers multi-user networking capabilities and integrates with popular digital mode programs like MixW2, FLDigi, and MMVARI through DDE connections or clipboard/INI-file transfers. It streamlines QSO logging by saving entries directly from these programs and supports import/export via **ADIF** for compatibility with other tools such as MMSSTV. HAM-LOG also connects to DX Atlas and Ham-Cap for enhanced operational awareness. Further enhancing its utility, HAM-LOG includes automatic callsign lookup on QRZ.com and supports eQSL.cc for electronic QSLing. The resource also details two smaller utilities: an Online Callbook DLL for MixW, which automatically populates names from QRZ.com into MixW log entries, and an Online Callbook LookUp command-line tool that writes callsign and name data to an INI-file, both requiring QRZ.com credentials.

TAHO.EXE, an open-source software, facilitates the creation of APRS maps for _UI-View_ by converting free data from _OpenStreetMap_ into the required *.JPG and *.INF file formats. This utility, developed by Dimitri Junker with specific UI-View format support added at the request of HB9DTX, streamlines the process of integrating detailed geographical information into the _UI-View_ platform. It operates on Windows, generating map files with border coordinates in just a few clicks, eliminating the tedious manual creation of *.INF files for custom maps. This converter allows UI-View users to leverage the continuously updated and community-contributed data of OpenStreetMap, which often surpasses commercial map quality in specific regions. The process is straightforward, with a detailed step-by-step guide available on the OpenStreetMap wiki, translated into French and German. TAHO.EXE significantly enhances the utility of UI-View by providing a readily accessible and continuously improving source of detailed, current geographical maps for displaying APRS station positions and objects.

HB9DNU Karlheinz's blog, hosted on Blogger, presents a collection of personal reflections and observations, predominantly in German. The content spans various non-amateur radio subjects, including Swiss political initiatives, economic discussions concerning banks like UBS, and social commentary. For instance, an entry from February 2008 details the Swiss vote on a combat jet noise initiative, highlighting the debate between tourism concerns and national security. Another post from October 2008 critiques the 500 billion Euro bailout package for banks, calculating its per-capita cost for German citizens and referencing earlier blog entries from March 2006 and June 2007 that discussed UBS salaries and Raiffeisenbank issues. These entries often reflect Karlheinz's personal perspective on current events. The blog also includes lighter, more personal notes, such as a February 2009 entry about a video produced by his grandson, and observations on local events like a bird exhibition in Contone or a scenic train ride through the Centovalli, demonstrating a broad range of interests beyond the ham radio hobby.

HB9BZA's LoTW users list, originally compiled since 2005 from DX-Cluster and user submissions, now primarily leverages the official ARRL full users list released on July 29th, 2017. This resource details 228,012 calls across 340 current DXCC entities, with the latest update noted on March 2, 2026. It offers various formats, including a full list, text versions, and breakdowns by country, providing valuable insights into LoTW participation for DXers. While the ARRL's official list with "last upload" dates diminished the original list's unique utility, HB9BZA's site continues to offer statistics and user counts by country, which remain of interest. The author, HB9BZA, expresses gratitude to contributors who helped maintain the list's accuracy over many years, achieving an impressive 96.4% match with the ARRL's data before the official release. Knowing which stations are LoTW active encourages more hams to join the system, demonstrating that even rare DXCC entities like Ducie Island or Heard Island can be confirmed quickly. For instance, HB9BZA recounts a 36-minute QSL confirmation for a 3A2MW contact. The list also integrates with the RXCLUS packet radio/telnet client, enhancing DXCC award tracking by identifying LoTW participants and utilizing upload dates for alarms.
