What a card says #

The list shows what is on the air, grouped by kind (broadcast, aviation, marine, amateur, two-way radio and more). Each card says:

  • the frequencies;
  • an easy or hard rating;
  • the range you can expect and the best time;
  • an antenna that works;
  • whether your receiver can do it: "Your receiver can", "Needs HF" or "Outside your receiver's range".

The button on a card #

Each card has one button: Listen, Scan, Open or Learn more.

Your antenna location #

Explore asks for the place of your antenna so it can tell what is used in your region. It is optional and stays on the phone. You set it in Settings > Receiver.
