    The next billion won't take long at all with the QRZusage way up and the thousands of digital contacts being made daily.

    Congratulations!
    When passing this milestone, do you have any plans to make the QRZ Logbook simple to use for call signs operating from several locations (with separate locators, IOTA references, state, county, etc.) without having to create a new account with new start and end dates (not overlapping with other accounts) for each change of station location. In this regard, QRZ Logbook and eQSL.cc suffer from the same limitation, requiring start and end dates for each change of location and not allowing overlapping dates. LoTW's solution with Station Locations in TQSL is just way easier, with no time limit per location.
    I have asked Customer Support a number of times over the last 12 years or so and the response has always been "No, but we will look into it".
    As I am not going to create 200 accounts to become a user, I wonder: Have you looked into it?
    And are there any new views/conclusions on this element of user friendliness for multi-QTH stations?
    Will/may/might it happen, or is the conclusion that this will require such a restructuring of the database that it will never happen?

    Keep your Eyes on the Prize - WAS. Keep working and confirming Kansas until you get it Confirmed.

    It took me 31 years to get confirmation of working 100 countries. Not an ARRL member so can’t get DXCC,,,,But am a subscriber member on QRZed and DX - 100 aka DX World Award is up on my QRZed page, and my shack wall. :)

    I qualified for the DX -100 Award April 27, 2025.

    I say again, KEEP YOUR EYES ON THE PRIZE ( In your case the WAS )

    Congratulations on this milestone. Certainly cements the reason to contribute to support QRZ.com on an annual and ongoing basis.

    I use QRZ.com almost daily and truly appreciate the mountain of effort it takes to maintain this now almost vital ham radio service.

    73 and best wishes for continued success.

    Congratulations. I would hope that the dollars per QSO generated by QRZ are increasing so you remain viable.

    Oddly, a billion seems like a lot until we imagine all of these contacts over all these years by so many hams is only 1/300th of what one man has in dollars.

    That's awesome. I really like the platform and having the ability to also post LoTW from it is a smooth headache saver. My wish? That would be for LOTW to accept confirmed QSO's from QRZ.

    73 and Thank you for the effort!

    It's a shame that more people that use QRZ do not confirm their contacts. If they did I would have qualified for more awards. I believe at one time it was required to log each contact (circa the 50's and 60's).

    That is pretty cool! I have over 10,100 QSOs in my log and I upload to eQSL, LoTW, and QRZ. My confirmation rate is as follows:
    21.8% on eQSL
    53.7% on LoTW
    45.9% on QRZ - .6 percentage points off your average!

    My combined confirmation rate is 61.5%. I guess not everyone uploads to all three. Congratulations on the ONE BILLION mark!
