About:
GridTracker is a specialized application for amateur radio operators that integrates real-time mapping with live data from WSJT-X and other digital mode software. It provides a visual interface for tracking station locations, decoding signals, and managing QSOs (contacts) on a world map. Its main value is simplifying log management and enhancing situational awareness during radio operations.
Key Features:
  • Real-time mapping of amateur radio stations
  • Integration with WSJT-X and other digital mode software
  • Live decoding and display of FT8, FT4, and other signals
  • Visual QSO logging and tracking on a world map
  • Automatic grid square and station information lookup
Use Cases:
  • Amateur radio operators tracking contacts and stations during contests or casual operating
  • Radio enthusiasts visualizing signal propagation and station locations in real-time
  • Hams managing digital mode QSOs and logs with an integrated mapping interface
Alternatives:
  • WSJT-X – Primary digital mode software for decoding, but lacks integrated mapping and visual tracking features of GridTracker
  • JTAlert – Another WSJT-X companion with alerts and logging, but less focused on comprehensive mapping and visualization
