TV Antenna Helper FREE (v. 1.1.0) Разработано Joseph A. Potkay |
This app is the free version of TV Antenna Helper. If you use this app, please rate it. If you feel that you can not rate this app 4 or 5 stars, please send me an email (dhaelen@gmail.com) and let me know why.
Please consider buying the ad-free version at: https://market.android.com/details?id=potkay.tvantennahelper.paid
Please note: This app does not allow you to watch TV on your phone. Instead, it uses your location to find nearby over-the-air Digitial TV (DTV) and HDTV signals in the *United States* and assists you choosing an antenna and pointing it in the correct direction. Information provided by the app includes: TV channel signal strengths, compass bearings to signals (direction), distance to signal towers, TV channel numbers, RF channel numbers, elevation, and frequency bands (UHV, Hi-V, Lo-V).
User location is determined automatically via GPS or the network. Alternatively, a location can be manually entered. DTV/HDTV station data is downloaded from the U.S. Federal Communications Commission (FCC). The app displays nearby TV signal information in three ways:
1) A scrollable list displaying all nearby TV signals ordered from strongest to weakest.
2) A compass that displays the stations at their correct heading from the current location.
3) A map displaying the current location and the location of all nearby TV signal towers.
The app can also be used to recommend antennas for your location.

[2011-06-21] KB3HLP: Works some of the time This is great when it works but it works less then 1/2 the time even standing at the same location. It has problem communicating with the mother ship. Without the data download, it is completely useless. |

[2011-04-13] Mike.Stern: Great integration with GPS & Compass Used it on my EVO 4G. Quick GPS lock, accurate in both locations I tried it in. Really helpful when aiming antenna. Developer was quick & responsive to a small feature request (adding physical channel to the channel list). Looking forward to using this in my attic where I had trouble attempting to use a regular compass to get general direction for aiming. Now I have the direction & the channels to aid me. |
