Comments on FT8 Decoder for Android

★★★★★ This app could be improved by implementing a method of pulling in audio from a physical patch cable directly connecting the audio output of a radio like an ATS-909X directly to the mic input of a phone, to eliminate acoustic noise and signal distortion that comes with holding a headphone up to the mic of a phone. I do not have a "USB sound card", and I should not have to use grid power, because requiring grid power would cost me access to HF radio signals.

★★★★★ Works perfectly! I'm using iRig 2 (analog guitar interface) to get the sound from my HF receiver to my phone mic input, and I have already received FT8 on all HF bands. Works also fine with just the phone microphone, but requires me to be quiet which is hard. 73

★★☆☆☆ Worked the first couple of times but now won't decode. I Uninstaller it out of frustration! How about a refund?
