My kids are studying for their Technician Class Ham license this summer. So I thought I’d upload a few fun Ham apps on the Droid. These are the ones I’ve found useful. Pop up your Market and enter these titles:<\/p>\n
1. Ham Radio Study – Flash card like study tool with all the current test question pools. Great so far, but no diagrams.<\/p>\n
2. Callsign DB – Lets you enter a call sign and find out who it is via the FCC records. Very useful.<\/p>\n
3. RF Finder – Look up repeaters in your area or anywhere in the US. This is not a free app, but for only $4.99, it’s pretty useful. Now I don’t have to have that little repeater manual with me.<\/p>\n
4. HamSatDroid – This app lets you see when any number of weather and Ham satellites are over head.<\/p>\n
5. Call Log – A pretty basic logbook. This one has the call sign look up built-in.<\/p>\n
Do you have a favorite Ham app that you use? Let me know in the comments.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
