quite impressive

There are so many things this guy had to overcome to bring this amazing piece of tech to us. I am grateful. I dont use it nearly as often as I should. I dont think it I truley got it going. User error on my part.

Another frustrating app that doesn’t work

I’ve spent so much time on YouTube with manual and I think I am calling it a day about 100 bucks invested in this thing just does not work. Let’s start out with the first few problems. The manual is poorly written and has mistakes for example, if you could get the BB link to stay on and it’s in a power bank, then you could probably get it to work mind disconnect so much it made simply making an update nearly impossible then in section 2.2 number three it says select packet and pick a station from your favorite dude if you’re brand new, you don’t have any favorites and when you actually select packet, nothing actually happens. At least this is my experience. I’ve been attempting to email the creator for days and days. Every once in a while I get one back, but perhaps I didn’t spend enough money to get any support. I can’t find the groups IOP page, which will probably tell me something about software engineers and nothing About getting this thing going. I’ll try again in a couple months.

Great app - great support - works perfect with an iPhone 13 and a Kenwood TH-D74/THD-75.

I can finally connect up to my Kenwood TH-D74 and use the Radio Mail app. I sent my first Winlink email and it worked perfectly.
