What is GridTracker2?

GridTracker2 helps amateur-radio operators see where contacts are happening and which grids they have worked. It displays traffic received from WSJT-X on an interactive map and can load ADIF log files for a historical view. Map overlays, a configurable Call Roster and callsign lookups bring live activity and logbook information into the same workspace.

The publisher lists audio and visual alerts, logging-program integrations, award tracking, spot reports, weather and solar information. These tools suit checking activity against an existing log rather than treating every received call as a new contact. Live WSJT-X activity depends on a separate WSJT-X data source; ADIF files provide a route for reviewing recorded contacts instead.

This entry links to the publisher's Windows 10/11 EXE installer, version 2.261019.5. Windows 7/8.1 uses a separate legacy package. The accompanying publisher screenshot illustrates an older GridTracker2 interface, not a verified capture of this release. No installation or radio-operation test was performed.

What it offers

  • Plot live WSJT-X traffic and historical ADIF contacts on an interactive map.
  • Use map overlays for greyline, award tracking, Moon position and reception reports.
  • Review live activity in a customizable Call Roster and look up callsigns.
  • Connect supported logging programs and web systems to follow award progress.
  • Configure audio and visual alerts and view spot reports, weather and solar information.

Good to know

  • Live WSJT-X traffic requires a separate WSJT-X data source; GridTracker2 also accepts ADIF logs for historical viewing.
  • The linked installer is for Windows 10/11. The publisher provides a different legacy installer for Windows 7/8.1.
