Hamalert integration #

If you like to provide your users with current data about Frequency and Mode you are on inside of our QRZ integration, you can do so via Hamalert.

Setup #

Step 1: Create Account #

Create a free account with Hamalert.

Step 2: Create Trigger #

Create a trigger for your event callsigns. You can use the full possibilities of filters in hamalert if you like.

For this integration, the Action of “URL” must be checked.

Step 3: Setup Destination #

Configure your URL destination. Scroll down to “URL notifications” and enter https://your.coordinatorr.site/hamalertreceiver. Of course, replace the dummy with your URL, but leave “hamalertreceiver” intact!

Also, be sure to select POST (JSON).

Save.

Step 4: Test your setup #

Done! Your Coordinatorr-Instance will now receive those Hamalert spots and display them via QRZ integration and on the dashboard.

You can test this by starting a current activation and then use the “Simulate” page of hamalert to push out a hamalert notification to coordinatorr.

Step 5(?): But I already have a URL destination… #

If you already use another URL destination for your hamalert, you might want to have a look at another small DB4SCW project, the hamalert spotproxy.

You can find the project on Github.

This little project takes your hamalert spots and depending on a customizable ruleset proxies them to how many other URL endpoints as you like.
