About
Beacon 73 makes sending your APRS position simple. Just open the app and start.
SIMPLE BEACONING
• Start or stop auto-beaconing from a clear, focused dashboard
• Send your position immediately whenever you choose
• See when your last beacon was sent and when the next one is due
SMART TIMING
Choose manual, timed, or movement-aware Smart beaconing. Beacon 73 can adapt beacon timing to your speed and direction.
MAP AND TRACK
• See nearby APRS station callsigns, icons, and status
• View your current position and recent location track
• Use a map to see other stations in real-time
TRY IT SAFELY
Demo Mode uses simulated data, does not request your location, and cannot transmit. Explore the app before entering your callsign.
Beacon 73 connects to APRS-IS. Live operation requires a valid amateur radio callsign and APRS-IS passcode. Beacon 73 is not an emergency or safety service.
