SDR-Control Mobile

Right from the start the iPhone version worked perfectly. It was so intuitive and easy to use, that it took almost no time to get setup and working. To my surprise the reports on ft8 were so much better using this program than others, with no changes made to any of my equipment. I used this for remote operation from Aruba, using both WiFi and 4G cell service. Worked perfectly with no issues or disconnects at all. I had been hesitant after having remote connection issues with other programs. But this worked 100%.

I have both the iPhone and iPad versions of this application. I have made FT8 contacts in both Access and WiFi modes. My suggestions to users is to read the manual. The time spent will certainly enhance your experience. The author took the time to develop a comprehensive manual that gives you all the information you need to get started and use all of the features. The price spent is well worth the efforts to give us such an excellent tool for our hobby. I would love to see more digital features in the future but I am not a programmer and have no idea how hard that is to do.

I used this to make my very first contact on FT8 and using it was easy. It is feature rich and I understand not everything is possible on a phone app but there were just a few issues I had. I used this to listen as I tested some vhf antennas from a few miles away and the audio was… odd. It sounded muffled and garbled but I was able to see the waterfall so it still did the job. My second issue was that twice during ft8 usage, the app crashed and left the 705 stuck in transmit. If I was away from the rig, it would have continued until something went pop. Lastly is just a little request. If this was capable of JS8call, I would gladly pay an extra fee. The ability to do keyboard to keyboard on hf from my phone? Revolutionary.
