FT Ham vs Logger 26

FT Ham – FT8/FT4 Decoder & Audio Transmitter for Amateur Radio FT Ham puts a complete FT8/FT4 decoder and audio encoder/transmitter in your pocket. Decode, reply, and log QSOs directly from your iPhone — all in real time, fully offline. What the app does for you: - Live Waterfall: frequency vs time spectrogram with color intensity and vertical labels for each decoded signal. - Real-time Decoding: receive FT8 and FT4 audio via microphone or connected audio interface and see callsigns, reports, and SNR instantly. - Transmit (Encode & Play): generate FT8/FT4 audio for CQ, reports, RRR, and 73, aligned to correct UTC slots and played through speaker or radio interface. - Auto QSO Sequencing: detects CQ, prepares replies, respects UTC timing and even/odd cycles, retries if needed, and can complete QSOs automatically. - Manual Control Always Available: full manual message selection and intervention at any point. - Predefined Messages & Composer: CQ, DX→ME, reports, RRR, and 73 — automatically filled with your callsign and locator, fully customizable. - Logbook & ADIF Export: automatically log completed QSOs and export to standard ADIF for external logging software. - Contact Map: visualize logged QSOs and geographic coverage in a single view. Privacy & Safety: - All decoding and signal processing runs entirely on your device. No internet connection required. - FT Ham does not collect or share personal data. All settings and logs remain local on your device. - Audio output may be connected to external radios; always comply with local amateur radio regulations. - Payments are handled by Apple or third-party services; FT Ham never receives payment details. Legal & Licenses: - FT Ham code is released under the MIT License. - Third-party library licenses are included in-app.

Logger 26 is a lightweight, high-performance logging terminal designed for the modern portable operator. Built to target the latest iOS standards, it offers a "zero-bloat" experience for POTA, SOTA, or mobile HF/VHF operations. Core Features: Rapid QSO Entry: Log callsigns, frequency, mode, RST, and power with minimal taps. Timestamps are automated so you can stay in the pileup. Smart Band & Mode Detection: Intelligently maps frequencies to bands to reduce manual errors. CW Taptic Engine: Unique tactile feedback system. Confirm callsigns and status signals via Morse code vibration—perfect for bright sunlight where screens are hard to read. Session History: View and verify your 5 most recent QSOs at a glance for quick corrections. Why Logger 26 is Different: While other apps are filled with trackers and insecure storage, Logger 26 is built for the security-conscious: Hardware-Backed Encryption: Your QRZ credentials aren't just saved; they are encrypted using AES-GCM and stored securely within the iOS Keychain, protected by the device’s Secure Enclave (SEP). Zero Telemetry: No ads, no analytics, and no third-party tracking. Your data stays between you and QRZ.com. Native & Modern: Optimized for the latest iOS with a full SwiftUI interface. Designed to feel like a native part of the system, not an afterthought. Privacy-First: Forced HTTPS (TLS 1.3) for all transmissions. Logger 26 removes the "digital friction" of logging, allowing you to focus on the radio, not the screen. Optional integration with QRZ.com Logbook allows licensed amateur radio operators to submit QSO records to QRZ Logbook. This technical feature is designed for users who already possess their own 3rd party API access. 73 de SP9HKA
