Androids a coming . . .
Currently there are only a handful of apps made for the Android platform, here is one we have found to work and very well indeed. It allows you find IRLP nodes that are within a set range of your location.
The app will display the nearest IRLP nodes on google maps. You can select a radius from your present location (say 5 or 10 miles etc) or plan for trips away by inputting any given location. You can select how many nodes you’d like to display and whether VHF/UHF etc.
It’s as simple as clicking on any node on the map to get connection details. Details including the node’s frequency and tone, and whether it is idle or not.
If you have an Andriod phone give it a try this summer, we are sure you’ll have some fun.
Enjoy the sun.
