Top Pcmac Reviews

  • HF Weather Fax app is a winner

    By AZrick (Pcmac user)

    Just purchased this app for my iPod Touch based on good results with the NAVTEX app. I use a very stable and sensitive general coverage receiver with a longwire antenna. As mentioned in the instructions on the website, a strong signal is necessary for a clear fax reception. Have used other weather fax programs with my laptop and receiver, and am impressed with the quality of the faxes this will capture. I would give this a five-star rating if you had included a tuning meter (showing the signal spectrum) similar to the NAVTEX app -- for fax this would be a great benefit to visualize how to tune your radio for the max signal peaks. Otherwise it will take a good deal of experimentation and may frustrate some users. Overall this is an excellent app. For radio enthusiasts Black Cat Systems has created some excellent products. Thanks!
  • Offshore Weather Fax Required

    By Starboardtack (Pcmac user)

    I singlehand a small boat offshore. I needed access to weather information for my sail to Hawaii and this program, combined with a Sony 7600GR receiver and a cable or two, does the job. I am able to receive weather fax data and can plan my route accordingly. I have experience with the same companies version of this software for the Mac laptop and it is a bit better in having a choice between greyscale and black and white modes, but on the flip side the tuning window on the IPad version is better. The developers support is very prompt and responsive to questions. This software is solid, easy to use, the developer stands behind it, and renders what you need when and how you need it. I highly recommend it.
  • WEFAX on your iPhone

    By BeckbBeck (Pcmac user)

    While the screen of the iPhone is small, the Weather FAXs are readable and clear using pinch zoom. Using both FSK and SSB modes I was able to copy complete maps. The only downside us to access saved maps required you to interact with iTunes on a mac or PC. You cannot just email the maps nor Bluetooth print them directly from the iPhone.
  • Wonderful

    By rich barton (Pcmac user)

    What a surprise to get a weather map by setting the iPad next to the shortwave. I plan to use this onboard. Reduce hash by tuning the signal to the high end. The use of the buttons could be clearer. Still haven't seen the difference between -3 and +3. Great app. 4 stars because nobody is perfect.
