About Loud Bang
Loud Bang is an Android client for WSPR amateur-radio beacons that can transmit and receive. It can send beacon signals through the phone’s audio output and receive and decode beacons using the audio input. The app can use the camera flash to trigger radio transmit circuitry, and GPS can update the grid location included with transmitted signals. Received packets can be sent over a network to a beacon-reporting service. The app’s main purpose is to connect an Android phone with amateur-radio equipment for beacon transmission and decoding. Several optional capabilities depend on permissions: the camera flash, GPS, and network transmission can be disabled in settings, and the product notes that most permissions are unnecessary when those features are off. Its functionality therefore depends on the phone’s audio hardware and the radio setup. The available information does not specify supported radios, cabling, or transmit power, so those details should be checked for a particular station.
