PhosphorFAX

PhosphorFAX receives radiofax, the HF weather fax that coast stations broadcast around the clock, and paints each chart line by line on a phosphor CRT display. Hold your iPhone near a shortwave receiver tuned to a weather fax station and watch surface analyses, wind and wave forecasts and ice charts arrive the way they do on a ship's recorder. It sends as well. Turn a photo, a received chart or the built-in test card into radiofax audio through the speaker, or export it as a WAV. No internet connection. No external hardware. No account. Just your iPhone and a radio. HOW TO RECEIVE Tune your receiver 1.9 kHz below the station's listed frequency in USB, so the signal sits around 1900 Hz. Then on the DECODE screen: ARM: wait for a start tone, then receive automatically START: receive now, without waiting for a start tone STOP: end the chart and save it CLEAR: discard the chart in progress…
