Comments on OpenHPSDR Radio for Android

★★★★★ Easy to use, FANTASTIC app! John; THANK YOU for a very exciting app!!! I have installed it on the latest LG model L41C cell phone and I was astounded to see how very easy it was to connect to my ANAN-100! I have found that it receives and handles nicely on the 4.5 inch screen on the L41C phone, but the FREQUENCY display is mostly covered by the multi-function meter. Not a major issue. The cell phone's 4.5 inch display is simply too small! Last night, my Nexus 7 self-upgraded to the latest version of the Android operating system, version 5.0.1. I had to re-install to make it work again. as EXPECTED. The display is a lot nicer ! On the Nexus 7, I can see all that is intended. I tried each and all of the sample rate settings in the app. -Using the higher sample rates made the observed TUNE SIGNAL as broken, even. My transmit audio is broken/raggy on both devices. I changed the sample rate to 48,000, no major change. I assign this to my Wifi connection. I was within five feet of the A/P that I was using, so the signal was good. Bottom line: VERY COOL APP!!! 73; -Mike-

★★★★★ It works very well with RedPitaya. Just install the openHPSDR App in the RedPitaya and thats it.

★★★★★ Afedri Seems to work with afedri net very well .. so far so good!

★★★★★ Simplicity Itself! If you are familiar with SDR then this app is superb for HPSDR radios. It delivers brilliantly. There is little I can add - it looks and sounds good and I had no problems controlling either my 100D and ANAN-10 over the home network by WiFi.

★★☆☆☆ Didn't work. Couldn't start up

★★☆☆☆ Device not detected I tried using it but keeps coming up as no device detected.

★★☆☆☆ Use with older app

★★☆☆☆ Disappointed, does not work with my SDRPlay. Looks like a good app though.
