About this app

The reverse beacon network (RBN, http://www.reversebeacon.net/) is a network of software-connected radio receivers which log any activity they can find on the amateur radio bands. It is an easy way to find new stations to work or to check if your signal is coming through.

This app makes realtime RBN data available to your Android device. It is possible to filter on bands, modes (CW, PSK, RTTY) and speeds (BPS and WPM).

To me this app is missing the most important feature, the ability to search for a specific call, essential if you are trying to see if your signal is getting out of even hunting for someone specifically, you might not know what band he is on but if you had a search for call sign you could find out that instantly. I uninstalled the app and just used the browser.

I agree that this would be a very useful feature. The app is open source and I am happy to review pull requests to add such a feature, but currently don't have time to work on it myself.

Great tool! Very useful! Works perfectly and has many filters that help you to found exactly what you want! For me, a CW rookie, the speed filter is a key advantage!!!

works nicely but needs a pause button so you can actually read or examine what is flying past on screen

What's new

This release fixes callsign-to-country resolution. In some cases, the wrong flags were shown for countries. Most importantly, Ukrainian callsigns are no longer shown as Russian.
