Steps

  1. Register a QRZ.com account with XML Data (subscriber) access enabled; free basic accounts are not authorized to use the XML lookup service.
  2. Request a session key with GET https://xmldata.qrz.com/xml/current/, supplying your QRZ username and account passphrase in the two documented login query parameters, and parse the <Key> element from the returned <Session> block.
  3. Cache the returned session key and reuse it for subsequent lookups instead of logging in again on every request.
  4. Query a callsign with GET https://xmldata.qrz.com/xml/current/?s=SESSION_KEY&callsign=CALLSIGN and parse the <Callsign> block for name, address, and grid fields.
  5. If a response's session block omits the <Key> element, treat the session as expired and repeat the login step to obtain a fresh key.
