Skipwave HF is een zelfstandig geschreven app voor digitale keyboard-to-keyboard-communicatie op de HF-amateurbanden, compatibel met het open JS8-protocol. Sluit een audio-interface aan (zoals een Digirig), kies je band en begin met zenden en ontvangen. WAT JE ERMEE KUNT • Zenden en ontvangen Volledige codering en decodering volgens het JS8-protocol, inclusief live waterval-weergave van het spectrum. • Automatische audioherkenning Sluit je interface aan via USB-C en de app schakelt vanzelf over, ook terwijl de app al open staat. • Macro's voor snelle QSO's CQ, Heartbeat, SNR-rapporten, RR/QSL, 73 en meer met één tik, met uitleg per knop voor wie de afkortingen nog niet uit het hoofd kent. • Automatische vervolgberichten De app herkent gerichte berichten en zet het logische antwoord alvast voor je klaar. • Bandkeuze met voorinstellingen Spring met één tik naar de gangbare JS8-frequenties per HF-band. • Logboek met zoekfunctie en ADIF-export Zoek terug in je gewerkte stations en exporteer je logboek naar elk ander logprogramma dat ADIF ondersteunt. • Melding bij bericht voor jou Trilling en geluid zodra iemand jouw callsign aanroept, ook als je even niet naar het scherm kijkt. VOOR WIE Voor radioamateurs met een geldige zendmachtiging die digitale modes op HF willen proberen vanaf een iPhone of iPad, portable of vanaf de shack. Ontvangen en meeluisteren kan zonder zendmachtiging. Skipwave HF is een onafhankelijke, vanaf de protocolspecificatie zelfgeschreven implementatie. De app is niet verbonden aan, en niet goedgekeurd door, de makers van het oorspronkelijke JS8Call. Alle credits voor het bedenken van het JS8-protocol gaan naar Jordan Sherer (KN4CRD). 73!
