Runs well on M1 MacMini

Was using it on my iPhone but runs well on my M1 Mac mini also. Excellent where I can click on a particular band received and see exactly who has received my Wspr Tx and who I have received.

New upgrade to app

I just looked at the new upgrade to the app. Peter the developer has always been on top of new stuff and keeping the app running smoothly. The globe vision of the world is superb. Of all the WSPR apps, this one is the best. Easy to use. Thanks
