SVXConnect Portable vs Magic PTT

SVXConnect lets a licensed amateur radio operator connect to compatible voice reflectors over IP and transmit / receive voice from a mobile device. A valid amateur radio license and a signed client certificate from your reflector operator are required. Designed for everyday use on the go: tap PTT, talk, listen. KEY FEATURES • Direct reflector protocol support — encrypted control channel and secure low-latency voice audio over UDP. Works with standard compatible reflector systems and supported enhanced metadata feeds. • Talkgroup management — switchable and monitored TGs with priority preemption, manual linger, idle timeout, and lock-to-channel mode. “Fill from portal” can load the full TG list from supported reflector metadata. • Live map — reflector node positions on a dark map view, talker dots in red, decoded mobile stations in blue. Tap clusters to fan out overlapping dots. Floating recenter button snaps back to your QTH at a configurable radius. • Local 24 h history — when no enhanced reflector feed is available, the activity panel falls back to a locally built rolling log, configurable from 1 hour to 1 week. • Bluetooth PTT — supported headset media buttons can be used as a PTT toggle. Compatible Bluetooth remote buttons are also supported, with one button for PTT and another for next TG. • VOX voice-activated transmit — optional, with headset-only gating to help avoid an unintended open mic on the built-in microphone. • Background-friendly — low-power keepalive keeps the connection available while the screen is locked, with reconnect support and lock-screen media-button PTT. • Audio routing — wireless speakers, Bluetooth audio devices, wired headphones, and per-device microphone gain with separate sliders for device and Bluetooth input. • Callsign and reflector metadata lookup, roger beep, talkgroup voice announcements, manual or automatic QTH. SVXConnect is open in design and uses a standard reflector protocol with no proprietary lock-in.

Magic PTT is a push-to-talk radio network for people who like a radio in their hand: hams, GMRS and CB operators, preppers, truckers, boaters, off-grid families, and anyone who wants to stay in contact when it matters. Press to talk. Members on the channel hear you live over Nexus, our voice network with servers in the USA and Europe and failover that just happens. WHAT YOU GET • Channels and private rooms. Join the Home channel, the International channel, or a My Room a net admin has set up for your group. • Radio bridges. Some rooms carry real Brandmeister DMR talkgroup traffic and AllStarLink nodes, so there is always something to hear. • Live captions in 25 languages. Pick your language once in Settings and every transmission arrives as text in it, translated automatically. • Operators roster. See who is on, who is talking, and star the people you want to find again. • Magic Book. Your contact book. Confirm a two-way key, keep notes, and message from a station card. Hams export ADIF from Logbook. • Magic Grid. Opt-in grid squares on a live map. Never GPS, and gone the moment you disconnect. • Chat and photos with member-to-member translation. • Storm Watch weather alerts and the World Net Clock on the Stage desk. • The Slammer. A moderated net with a sense of humour: rule-breakers do a little time.
