PSK31 QSO - how to transmit?

Reading is fine, but now I want to transmit. I could´t figure out how to transmit.

It does work, but it still needs work...

As I review this app, it appears that PSKer (which frankly has better functionality) has stopped working all together since the developer of that app stopped updating it years ago and now that app doesn’t accept audio input (needs permissions fix to be current with iOS).

This app does work, but is a little rough around the edges. I wish it supported landscape mode for the iPad, tagging of waterfalls, and a more intuitive interface.

In short, this is all we have for PSK on iOS right now and...at least it works, but still - wish the app would be updated. I’d gladly pay for it. 73, KI4ASK

No working

Doesn't working well on iOS 11. Throw away to the trash box.

It works, but....

It does work with my Easy Digi by KF5INZ interface. Main problem I have is that you can not change the rotation of the app. I use it with an iPad Pro connected to a keyboard case. The will not display in landscape orientation (sideways), only in portrait mode.

This makes the waterfall display small and I have to use the iPad outside of keyboard case.

If it would display in landscape orientation with a larger waterfall, then I would use it more.

Eh.....well if nothing else

Okay. So I tried this with PSK31 and it works 'okay' but not the greatest. It will not copy PSK63.

It would be great to have something like fldigi for iOS.

Needs major update

Please add support for Apple Watch.

Doesn't do a good job decoding.

Needs ability to transmit as well.

very very good!

I like it !

Too Noise Sensitive

Too noise sensitive to really be of any use.

Not the easiest to use

Noise sensitive and difficult to transmit

PSK31App

Works well, as do other apps from the Black Kat team

PSK31

Super !

Great

This is the third App I have purchased from Black Cat . It works very well.
There is one small change I would like to see. The up and down tuning buttons tend to block the display when they are used. These buttons would be better at the bottom of the screen. Excellent value for the price.

Preiswert und gut!

Habe diese App schon eine ganze Weile auf meinem iPad 1 installiert und bin damit sehr zufrieden. Es genügt, das iPad vor den Lautsprecher zu legen und eines der im "Wasserfall" angezeigten Signale anzutippen. Die Feineinstellung der Frequenz kann in der App vorgenommen werden, ohne dass die Frequenz am Receiver geändert werden muss. Das Dekodieren erfolgt recht zuverlässig. Am besten funktionierts mit einem iPad-USB-Adapter und einer 0815-USB-Soundcard für unter 3 €. Diese wird an den Recorder-Ausgang des Receivers angeschlossen und man kann die Lautstärke des Receivers herunterregeln, was auch angenehmer für die Ohren ist. Bin SWL und benötige die App nur zum Empfang.

Needs more work

These three apps for Ham Radio, RTTY, PSK31, and SSTV would be great, but they each have problems. ￿AND THERE"S NO WAY to contact the developers. I've tried and tried to find a way. There is a public forum, but try as I may, I can not get joined or signed up. No email is returned after registering.

Each of the three apps needs a "CLEAR SCREEN BUTTON" The RTTY app will not send the correct characters. There are other negatives. The concepts are good, but what a annoyance to have paid for these and not be able to get any troubleshooting help or problem reporting.

Don't waste your money ... YET.

Too expensive for receive only app

Its a real shame this app doesn't allow TX. Its UI is very nice although it would be nice to be able to change the font size.

If this app had RX/TX caability, it would be well worth the money. Lets hope there is a free upgrade when Blackcat introduce the TX.

PSK31 - Read Only App

This app's description should make it clear that this app is for Listening to PSK31 radio audio and decoding it to text. It does not generate any output sound/signal for sending to PSK radio for transmission. Or if it does, I haven't figured out how to do it. . .

Etwas teuer

Dekodiert zuverlässig Aussendungen in PSK31. Für den Funktionsumfang etwas teuer.

Tried this app with my veteran Kenwood R600 and it works very well. Had no trouble deciphering 20M sigs.

Great!

Another works as advertised... Ready to buy an upgrade with transmit! Thank you!

Slick!

Works great. Much better at decoding than my previous iPad app.
Runs fine using the speaker and internal microphone but really works well when I plug my iMic USB sound card in to the camera adaptor USB port.
Using it to decode the signal and the ability of the K3 to send PSK with paddles makes for a slick little, computer-less, PSK station.
