To continue using HamClock after this date and to keep receiving updates, you must switch the HamClock backend server. To find out more about this and for links to guides for both Raspberry Pi-based HamClocks, or those using an Inovato Quadra, visit hamclockisnotdead.com

The replacement open-source HamClock backend server is called ‘OpenHamClock Backend’ and more details can be found at ohb.works
