Ratings and reviews

Easy to use. Nice to be able to filter by license class. Once I realized I could click on a band and bring up lots more information the app is very useful. Many calling frequencies and digital mode frequencies are listed but some bands have more info than others. Different regions may have different plans and that may limit what is listed. Overall, a very useful and easy to use app!

I opted for the premium flavor. Great job. My preference, however, would be for the chart to be in the reverse sequence. It just seems logical and more intuitive to show the high frequencies on top, followed by the low bands. That’s how I think about the ham bands, but, hey, that’s just my ham brain. High is up, low is down. Maybe others prefer the chart as is? What better reason for this obliging developer to add a Chart Sequence Option in the settings. That would be great. Just sayin’. 73

I like the app the way it was. It used to informed you what modes you could use on what bands. It has been this way for years. Now the developer added paid toys that I don't want, and I don't seem to be able to get to what I used it for in the first place. Now you must navigate through options before you can open it up.
