Air Band Receiver

ABR allows you to listen airband frequencies as a conventional airband Radio. To work correctly this apps requires an external Realtek RTL2832U Radio Dongle connected on usb port using an OTG cable and the installation of the RTL2832 driver (driver of Martin Marinov to be installed from Play Store). The best performances can be obtained by using an antenna tuned to airband frequencies (118-136MHz). For any question, please contact [email protected]

Simple App, works flawlessly with the NooElec R820T SDR dongle.

Excellent little airband listener. Works with the rtl-sdr.

Was built for an old Android version and device didn't work

Doesn't tell you that you need an external device for it to work

This would be a great app if it would support HackRF device

Can't really tell you. Haven't the equipment.

GOTTA PAY FOR THIS ONE

I think most of the one and two star reviews are from people who don't understand what this does. This is receiving the communications local to the device, this needs a radio, hence the SDR dongle. The traditional way of doing this needed a raspberry pi or a Linux PC, rtl-sdr, and a lot of configuration. This makes the process easy. Where it scores over internet based apps like LiveATC is that you can use it in places like the UK where uploading is illegal. Good for training radcom skills. Would really appreciate saving of channels

I'm sure this app works ok if you know how to use it, no instructions at all with it so i haven't got a clue where to start

This a piece of junk. Tried it on 2 different cell phones beside an airplane at best a faint signal. It just doesn't work.

It works but it lacks scanning and lacks storage of channels. Dear programmers, I am sure you could do a bit better with this app! Would be looking forward for an update.

It work perfectly! Its unbelievable for a FREE app! just one more thing and it would be literally flaw, the ability to work in background plzzz (:P) thank u so much ♥

Comparing with my R7000, signal becomes very weak. Very noisy.

Dav. S. Sep 23, 2016

4 STARS as it is very nice and does EXACTLY what is says it does. NOT 5-stars because you can't save and no 'dials' - must manually enter frequencies. GREAT start, but please keep going. Thank you for providing this.

Dav. B. May 27, 2016

However I'd really love to see a 25mhz or 8.33mhz list or the ability to save multiple channels in and switch between them. Possibly even a scan function, which cycles through set or saves frequencies for easy listening to multiple channels. That said it's great to see more apps coming to android using the rtl dongles.. Definitely look forward to future updates and would happily pay for a supported, adfree version once it had features i mentioned :)

Unless you BUY A FREAKING USB ANTENNA DEVICE??!!?? Why can't we get the transmissions from the internet like on Broadcastify, Scanner Radio etc.

You have to buy extra equipment
