BeaconAid-HF App Reviews

Remarkably well thought out display of information for the NCDXF beacon system. The tiny white dot on the map for the current beacon is a nice touch. I'd like to see an az-eq map (centered on my location), with terminator overlay, but that's asking a lot for the price! Runs nicely on my iPhone-original. Minor problem: if I allow BeaconAid to use my location (enabled in Settings), I'm repeatedly shwon the "Current Location Unavailable" message when my phone is in a No Service zone.

Danny: Thanks for creating this app! It compares very well with the much more expensive ($100) beacon clock that MFJ makes, and the price is certainly right! This is especially useful for me because I spend more time operating HF mobile than at home. Having this is my pocket is especially convenient then. Dave - K7DAA

The app is till running but now more news update and the screen size is lower than new iPhones.

This is a great app.

Great, professionally done, low cost App. Brings together the right data in a very useful, intuitive way! I agree with another reviewer who feels an az-eq map would be a fabulous touch, but the beam heading is a very nice capability, and more than good enough for such a low cost app! -Joe

This is definitely the one to get! It's especially handy in the mobile. Danny has devised a super way to get around the iPhone clock error so that the program has good time. I've tried them all and this is by far the best and the only one left on my iPhone. Richard W5SXD

Simple and intuitive. I love it!

Nice interface and works as advertised. The other beacon app in the App Store seems to be abandonware. Go with this one.

I always struggled to listen to the HF beacons. This app makes it so easy.
