xwota allows for monitoring and querying the WOTA database. It operates much like a DX Cluster client, except it uses the database rather than a cluster. Refer to http://www.wotadb.org for information about the WOTA database.

The user may then enter the frequency and optionally a comment in the main window, and click the Update button to cause the report to be sent to the database.
