Excellent app. Have been using it for a long time. Best of 73’s. Tom K4NAM

Magloop feature -requires $1.99 fee -yet almost nil capability

Whilst the App required $1.99 fee to go “PRO”. The magloop feature which required the PRO fee is so basic as to be practically useless. This feature really only suggests a wide min/max range for outer (Main) loop. Period. Nothing else! Nothing on Gamma matching, nothing on calculating Z, wavelength, capacitance, or even anything about the simpler inner (driver) loop sizing etc.

Be aware that anyone who comes for this App specifically regarding designing magloops - There is very little here for you at the moment. I’m hoping the author(s) will see this and consider adding more capabilities. Seem a shame not to.

I’m leaving 2-Stars because I see other features in the app but have not yet tried to use them.

Request Payment again

I paid the $1.99 for the pro and it keeps asking me to pay again. It won’t let me choose restore.

Does nothing!

Can not input data. App seems frozen.

Crashes

The app has potential, however when I decided to upgrade to the pro version to unlock the remaining features, the link crashes the app. I can’t complete the upgrade and there’s no pro version available in the App Store that I can find. Too bad for the app developer. You almost made some money with this thing.

Greatest app ever for understanding radio fundamentals!

You have gone above and beyond and helpingRadio operators understand how wave move through the air!How to build an antenna the correct way and all the different types of antennas that can be made d.I.y.Thank you very much for all the love and time you put in this application and I look forward to seeing what you’re gonna come up with next!

Great app

It’s a great app for figuring out antennas. I’ve used it quite a bit in my hobbies.

No frequency in gigahertz?

No gigahertz option for frequency in apple app but there is in android.

Very useful information

Not useable

The app UI is a mess. Screens are under headers and the controls can’t be seen or be operated. When I went to see what the “Pro” version was about the app blew up. It isn’t useable in this state. Sad, could have a great tool.

Doesn’t work. Waste of money.

Downloaded this for convenience but after purchasing the “pro version” the calculators stopped working. The app is useless to me now. I don’t recommend downloading it as the are much better websites available for building antennas.

Colors need improvement

While the app seems to do what it was designed to do, the color scheme is horrible. Blue letters on a green background make it very difficult to read. It would also be nice if you could change all values from metric to imperial or vice versa without having to change each individual value. If I need measurements, they will all be either or and not a combination of imperial and metric values.

Buggy and Primitive

Crashes during attempt to upgrade to pro, doesn’t calculate a ground plane dipole given a frequency and more problems. It’s little more than a reference app with some basic calculations (when they work).

Hard to use

Could not figure out how to select or enter values

Upgrade don’t work on my phone

Upgrade don’t work on my phone but works on my macbook pro m1 go figure restore don’t work

Fantastic

This is a GREAT APP

Where is the phasing calculator?

I bought it and was looking for cable harness/phasing calculator and cannot find it.

Has potential but it is unusable.

The information and calculators in this app are brilliant but the interface doesn’t work a lot of the time and makes the app unusable. It’s such a good app that if improvements to the interface were made it would be well worth the purchase.

Kein Upgrade möglich

Leider kein Upgrade möglich, nach Anwahl des Menüpunktes passiert nix, außer daß die App sich selbst verabschiedet.

Nice collection, needs refinement

I like the thought behind the assembly of tools, the collection is great enough for legit RF and work. The app could benefit from a UI and usability review to improve idiosyncrasies.
