Hmm. I'll look into it. I just got back from vacation. I'll clear my
backlog of field day logger fixes, and then check if the qrz api supports
multiple or batch lookups.

This functionality helps a lot when working portable, and when reception
is not so great, it helps validate the callsign and speeds the QSO by quite
a bit.
*Describe the solution you'd like*
When typing the callsign we can have a special function to capture if the
input ends with ?, if yes run a wildcard search in QRZ database.
The QRZ database will return all possible matches of the callsigns
registered with qrz.com
Example:
User input in callsign box (you can create a validation there to check if
a special character is used; it must be a minimum 4 characters long;
otherwise, you will receive hundreds of callsigns)
m0so? or m0so*
we run qrz.com search for m0so*
Output:
Return from qrz is 15 possible matches, like the list below.
M0SOT Andrew Cowan Southampton
M6LZP J Barry Lovelock The Lizard (alias match)
M0SOA Gary McCourty Eaton, TARPORLEY
M0SOE Bruce MacMillan Deal
M0SOO Jason A Barker Scarborough
M0SOP Harry Weston I Also Have The Call-sign M1ETU
M0SOX GEL Galliver Odiham, HOOK
M0SOL SOLWAY DX GROUP. C/O C.E.WOLF, G6LSO. CARLISLE
M0SOM Mike Childs Chippenham
M0SOF Standish Amateur Radio Society Standish
M0SOY Gary Sawyer Tyne and Wear
M0SON jason r i searle gosport
2E0SOY Gary Sawyer Washington. Tyne and Wear (alias match)
M0SOC Dr. Ryan Pike Nr. Aylesbury, Buckinghamshire
M7SOY Gary Sawyer Washington. Tyne and Wear (alias match)
I have not found a logger for Linux that would have such great
functionality

They have a lookup API. We use a generic library called requests to pass in
our/your username and password to their API URL. They spit back a session
key. We then use the session key to make lookup requests which returns the
data in an XML format.

Hello,
Thanks,
I do not think the API will not support lookups; from what I can see, it
only does logbook operations, not DB lookups.
Your way into it will be via HTTP request on the search
Question?
How did you do the QRZ lookup on callsigns from contest tables, when field
where you show grid locators etc ...
Do you log in to qrz.com already, I suppose you do to fetch that data

An example of CURL request to qrz.com(unfortunately, qrz API is very, very limited, and it provides logbook functionality only)
---CURL---
This will spit out HTML doc, you looking for this section below (its table)
