- Innovative graphic DX Cluster management, with SPOT real time view on world map and auto tuning of the radio with CAT support.
- Super Cluster: An alternative cluster based on online data sent by users to HRDLog.net
- MySQL support for large databases and multi operator operations.
- CAT support for numerous radios, through HAMLIB.
- Cluster integrated with propagation informations by HRDLog.net
- ADIF import and ADIF / Excel (csv) / PDF export of log
- Integrated with E-QSL, LOTW, ClubLog and HRDLog.net.
- Fast and simple forms for help OM’s to write old good paper QSL with ease.
- Complete log searching features, Log4Om enables the OM to update offline the QSO with updated informations.
- Optimized for “paper to electronic” log conversion, with features that drammatically speeds up the speed of inserting QSO (auto-time functions with predefined QSO separations, automatically set timings for fast pile-up management)
- Language selectable English and Italian
- Complete label print feature
Ktrack
Ktrack is an KDE3 satellite prediction software, especially suited for radio amateurs operating through the satellites that are providing linear transponders. It can control the uplink/downlink of your transceiver(s). Ktrack is developed by Luc Langehegermann, LX2GT.

Tlf
Tlf, originally developed by Rein Couperus, PA0R, is now developed by Tom, DL1JBE and a supporting cast. Hamlib is used to get the rig's frequency and mode and track dx spots when logged in to a DX-cluser. Tlf is a contest logging program with networking support. Its user interface is partially based on TRLOG.
Tucnak
Tučnak is a VHF+ contest logbook. It was inspired from TACLog. Tučnak can control antenna rotators, and report frequency.
WSJT-X
WSJT-X implements communication protocols or "modes" called JT4, JT9, JT65, and WSPR, as well as one called Echo for detecting and measuring your radio signals reflected from the Moon. The JTxx modes were all designed for making reliable, confirmed QSOs under extreme weak-signal conditions.
WSPR
WSPR, the "Weak Signal Propagation Reporter", implements a protocol designed for probing potential propagation paths with low-power transmissions. WSPR 2.0 introduces rig-control. Developed by Joe Taylor, K1JT.
Xdx
Xdx, a DX-cluster client for Linux which uses the rigctl binary to set your rig's frequency when double-clicking on a dx-spot. Originally developed by Joop Stakenborg, PG4I, Xdx is now maintained by Nate Bargmann, N0NB.
Xlog
Xlog, a logging program for linux, which uses Hamlib to retrieve power, frequency, mode and signal strength while logging. Developed by Joop Stakenborg, PG4I and Stéphane Fillod, F8CFE, is now maintined by Andy Stewart.
