QRV - Ham Radio Multitool

QRV (I am ready) is your essential ham radio multitool, built for DX success and maximum operating efficiency. Stop juggling apps! QRV brings critical tools and reliable, fast-updated data together in one clean platform.

No ads. Optional free sign-in keeps your devices in sync.

QRV is designed to get you the information you need quickly, whether you are in the field or at the shack:

- Real-time Band Conditions: Live propagation data from HamQSL, so you can find the optimal frequency.
- Universal Search: Look up a callsign, jump to a DXCC entity by name or prefix, or check your band plan for a frequency - all from one place.
- Cross-Device Sync: Favorites, frequency memories, settings and alerts follow you to every device you sign in on - free.
- My Frequencies: Save important frequencies - weekly nets, calling channels and more - with name, mode, and notes.
- Comprehensive Callsign Lookup: Search easily via QRZ and/or HamQTH.
- QSO Confirmation: See at a glance which bands you have worked a station on, from your QRZ logbooks or Wavelog.
- DXpedition Calendar: Track active and upcoming DXpeditions worldwide, with local spots and worldwide on-air activity side by side.
- POTA Spots: Browse live Parks on the Air activations with band, mode, and search filters.
- Band Plans: Detailed frequency allocations for 22 countries across North America, Europe, Africa, and Oceania - in English and in a native language.
- Propagation Compass: See which directions are open from your grid square.
- Built-in Calculators: Antenna lengths (dipole, Slim Jim, J-Pole), coax and feedline loss, battery runtime, and power calculations.
- Beginner-Friendly Reference: Q-codes, CW (Morse code) with audio, prosigns, RST, APRS commands, Maidenhead grids, and more.
- Material You theming, with condition colours chosen to stay readable for colourblind operators.

Note: Full QRZ data requires an XML and/or API subscription.

PREMIUM FEATURES

- Live Spots: Reliable, high-speed spot delivery from PSK Reporter, showing what is being heard near you right now.
- Rover Mode: Temporarily view live spots and band activity for any grid square without moving - alerts follow the grid you choose, then revert automatically.
- Lightning Proximity Alerts: Get warned when lightning is detected near your station so you can disconnect in time - fixed location or GPS-following, with an adjustable radius.
- Customized Notifications: Set alerts for bands, DXCCs, DXpeditions, and individual callsigns with configurable thresholds.
- DXpedition Alerts: Get notified when your tracked DXpeditions are spotted.
- Callsign Alerts: Get notified when a specific callsign is spotted from your location.
- Logbook-Aware Alerts: DXCC and Callsign alerts auto-manage based on your QSO/QSL history from Wavelog or QRZ Logbook.

Why Premium? These features require robust infrastructure:
- I run dedicated servers to aggregate PSK Reporter data, process notifications, serve band conditions, and provide DXpedition info.
- This delivers faster, more reliable data than direct API polling while being a good steward to upstream services like N1DQ's PSK Reporter.
- Premium subscriptions help cover ongoing server and infrastructure costs.

Try Premium free for 14 days.

QRV is also available on iPhone, iPad, Mac, and Apple Watch.
