SatHunter helps IC-705 owners make satellite contacts with ease.
It provides aids for aiming the antenna at the satellite, and controls the IC-705 via bluetooth, adjusting the up/down frequencies automatically with doppler shifts.
See the guide.
This App requires access to location information (GPS coordinates and device heading) and Bluetooth.
All the information acquired is only for computing the satellite orbit and doppler shift as well as controlling the IC-705. Nothing is shared with anyone.
My only iPhone is an iPhone XR. So this is the only device I can physically test each release with. The xcode simulators do not have bluetooth support.
The app currently only supports IC-705.
This project started as a personal effort by NE6NE.
All kinds of contributions are welcome. Please report issues on GitHub, or even better, create Pull Requests to fix them!
The author is not an App developer by trade, not do they have any design talent. If you identified any room for improvement in UI / UX please create an issue or PR. You may define the aesthetic taste of this App.
