Help Keep CAT4OM Free and Growing

CAT4OM is free software, built for radio amateurs who believe that powerful station control tools should be accessible, flexible, and open to experimentation.

The project is developed by Daniele Pistollato, IW3HMH, with the fundamental support of Terry, G4POP, developers of Log4OM logging software

CAT4OM takes time, care, testing, documentation, infrastructure, and continuous development. Every new radio handbook, every protocol refinement, every UI improvement, and every reliability fix requires hours of work behind the scenes.

If CAT4OM helps your station, your experiments, your remote setup, or your everyday operating, please consider supporting its development with a donation.

A Free Project, Not a Commercial Product

CAT4OM is offered freely.

A donation is simply a way to say:
“This project matters. Please keep going.”

And that means a lot.

Even free software has real costs.

Why Donations Matter

There is no required payment, no license fee, and no forced subscription. If you use it, test it, learn from it, or build on top of it, you are welcome here.

Your support helps cover:

Development time
Designing, coding, testing, debugging, documenting, and maintaining CAT4OM.

Hosting and infrastructure
Web services, downloads, documentation, repositories, and project-related tools.

Radio support and testing
Adding and improving radio handbooks requires research, validation, and practical testing.

Long-term maintenance
Keeping the project reliable as operating systems, frameworks, protocols, and user needs evolve.

Community support
Answering questions, investigating issues, preparing releases, and helping users get the best from CAT4OM.

Donations help transform CAT4OM from “something built in spare time” into a project that can keep moving forward with focus and continuity.
