Common questions

Is Netlogger MCP safe?

It passed 1 of 1 applicable basic checks. We have not read the code. Before adding a key or token, see what access the server asks for and use a key with only the permissions you need.

What keys or codes does it need?

The registry does not list a required key, though some servers ask you to sign in on first use.

Does it run on my computer or in the cloud?

It runs on your computer. Your AI app starts it when needed, and data does not pass through the maker’s servers (unless it calls an online service itself).

Is it still maintained?

The GitHub repo last changed –, and the latest version (0.3.1) reached the registry 9 days ago.

Which apps can use it?

Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. You also need Python (uv) on your computer.

What can I use instead?

netlogger-mcp

MCP server for NetLogger: nets on the air now, live check-in lists and who's up, and past nets and their check-ins, through any MCP-compatible AI assistant.

Data from NetLogger's public XML Data Service (API 1.3). Part of the qso-graph project. No API key needed. Your callsign is asked for once (see below).

Install

uvx netlogger-mcp            # run it; nothing to install

Tools

Tool	Description	Key Parameters
`netlogger_active_nets`	Nets on the air now: frequency, band, mode, net control, logger, monitoring count	name_like
`netlogger_checkins`	A live net's check-in list, plus the pointer (the station being worked now)	server_name, net_name
`netlogger_past_nets`	Closed nets over the last N days, with the net IDs past check-ins need	interval_days, name_like
`netlogger_past_checkins`	A closed net's check-in list	server_name, net_name, net_id
`netlogger_set_callsign`	Save your callsign (asked once, on first use)	callsign
`get_version_info`	Service version + upstream spec version (fleet identity attestation)	—

What is NetLogger?

NetLogger is the logging program many amateur-radio nets use: net control or a logger keeps the check-in list, and anyone can follow the net live. Its server publishes active nets, check-in lists and past nets through a public API.

Your Callsign

Every request tells NetLogger which station is asking, so it can tell one user from another:

netlogger-mcp/<version> (KI7MT; +https://github.com/qso-graph/netlogger-mcp)

The version is the installed one — it is read from the package, not written here.

On first use the assistant asks for your callsign and saves it. You're asked once. To set it yourself, use NETLOGGER_MCP_CALLSIGN=KI7MT.

It's saved in settings.json, in ~/.config/netlogger-mcp/ (Linux), ~/Library/Application Support/netlogger-mcp/ (macOS) or %APPDATA%\netlogger-mcp\ (Windows).

Good Neighbour Policy

NetLogger is a donation-funded service on one server, and it limits how often each call may be made. We keep to those limits:

Measure	Detail
NetLogger's call limits	GetActiveNets 1/min, GetCheckins 3/min, GetPastNets 1/min, GetPastNetCheckins 10/min. Checked before a request is sent, never after.
One budget per user	Every copy you run (Claude Desktop, Claude Code, a script) shares one budget, through a locked file beside `settings.json`.
Shared answers	Every copy also shares the answers it fetched, so a copy that has hit the limit gets another copy's recent answer, with its age, instead of an error.
Response caching	Active nets 60 s, check-ins 20 s, past nets 60 s, past check-ins 1 hour. Filtering by name costs no extra calls.
How old an answer is	Every answer has `as_of_utc` (when it was given) and `age_seconds` (how old the data is), so it was fetched at `as_of_utc` minus `age_seconds`.
Stale answers over errors	When a limit is reached, the last answer comes back with its age rather than a new request.
429 back-off	A "too many requests" on any call stops all calls for at least a minute, longer if NetLogger asks.
Past-net windows	More than 7 days of past nets needs a name filter, NetLogger's rule to protect its server.
Request timeout	15-second timeout.
User-Agent header	Every request names this project and your callsign, so NetLogger's operators can see who is asking.

Bands and Frequencies

NetLogger's band and frequency are whatever the logger typed ("40M", "75M", "DMR", "7033", "3918 KHz", "147.030 91.5", "TG 3141"). They're returned as typed, and beside them, only when the text can be read reliably: frequency_mhz, band_adif (the ADIF band, from ADIF 3.1.7's Band enumeration), tone_hz and talkgroup. A frequency outside the amateur bands (e.g. GMRS) gets no band_adif.

Privacy

NetLogger's check-in data includes street addresses and ZIP codes, and past nets include the IP address of whoever opened them. None of these are ever returned.
