Xwota by iz0ete
Description
Xwota is intended for amateur radio operators who want to make use of the WOTA database.

It can be used to find out who is on the air, the band and frequency they are operating on, and their location by country, state, county, grid, and latitude/longitude


It's very similar to a DX Cluster client, but it works with the WOTA database and contains more informations.

If you don't known what is the WOTA database, please read some infos at http://www.wotadb.org.

It's written in C and GTK, and it works on the latests Linux/BSD distributions and MAC OS X (with X11 package installed).
