iFTx

I recently purchased this. With some setting changes on my FT-991 via USB, I have been able to receive and transmit FT8 signals and had a successful QSO. I also see the reporting on PSK reporter. The interface is workable, it takes a little to get used to, but is working. I think because there’s not as many options as compared to a full computer with keyboard. But, as a portable device, this is a good and viable option.

Works fine with internal sound card of QrpLabs QMX. My only complaint is that the ADIF output from the log contains superfluous info which makes importing into another application problematic as it reports that there are too many characters. The complete qso exchanges are sent as “message” and latitude and longitude of both ends of the qso are included. I had to edit the adif to remove this but would like it to have not included the data in the first case.

I have used this app successfully for about a dozen activations with nothing more than my phone, and my TruSdx using VOX. Pretty intuitive, and the log export is ADIF compliant. Well done!!

It works but only sometimes. When it does not work it listens to the iPhone mic vs the usb mic Saw the YouTube video about using the ugreen usbc-audio adapter. Support page comes out blank on iPhone so trying this here in hopes someone else can confirm and better is there is some setting I need to have. When I connect cable I choose headphone vs other but have tried both. It has worked about 20% of the time.

I downloaded the app I can not get past putting in my call sign. I enter it and hit save it tells me “ enter call sign’ I’m stuck how to move forward. I click support and nothing comes up. Trying to find a email to ask for guidance. Can’t wait to use this. Once I get pass this problem.

Worked well. Easy to use. Did have a problem trying to use on Field Day. I couldn’t find a way to enter the FD exchange information.

Seems like the idea of the program is great. The problem I’m having is the time is out of sync with my iPhone. The time says 0600 when it’s 11:00 PM. Also moving the cursor for the frequency is very difficult to set to an exact frequency. If I could figure out how to fix these issuesi I would change my rating to 5 stars.

I’m very excited for the progress on this app. The software seems there and it decodes and encodes FT8/FT4 just fine, but I hope it could be expanded to JS8call or other modes potentially in the future. It seems that running an integrated sound card such as the one in my Xiegu X6100 is not yet supported, as on both my iPad Pro 2020 and my iPhone 12 Pro connecting an Apple USB-C to C/Lightning cable was ignored and played the audio through the speaker. I hope in the future this method could be implemented as I would use it very regularly for SOTA in order to lighten my kit.

Some problems with sequencing of the other party was not following the expected sequence to the dot. Lost 23% of my QSOs today due to this. However being able to just plug my phone into my kx2 and do FT8 is awesome while on the go! This is a great start. Can’t wait to see where it goes.

Well designed and easy to use. Can use IPhone mic and speaker for a no cable solution. Nice help built into app. Well worth the small price. Running on my IPhone SE. Perfect for portable FT8 operation. Highly recommended! WB9FUW
