Okay, I couldn't help myself. #QRV now has band plans for New Zealand and Australia. You won't find me on this Wikipedia page...

Get v1.4.3 now! apps.apple.com/us/app/qrv/i... #HamRadio #AmateurRadio

I'm rounding out 2025 with a few bug fixes for #QRV. It should be live in the App Store now (v1.4.2).

Thanks to everyone who showed their appreciation and gave feedback. This is leaps and bounds my most successful app! Feeling very thankful. #HamRadio #AmateurRadio

I finished The Shadowed Sun by @nkjemisin.bsky.social last night, and oh boy did I have some restless dreams. Perhaps the nightmare got to me. I'm sad that the series is over, but it was such a well-formed ending.

Here's my 2026 request. Manufacturers need to stop using USB-C ports without properly implementing the protocol. I hate having to dig out a A-C cable and then a C-A adapter to sync something to my laptop. It's like, 1 resistor!

Doing a little work on the #QRV backend. It should continue working, but you might see a little oddness in the server status section!

v1.4 has been submitted! Also, I finally have a proper website just for #QRV

I figured I should split it out from my personal website since I really want to make a go with this app. #iOSDev

Looks like #QRV 1.3 is now available! It adds:
- Band plans for the US, UK, and CA
- Info on grid squares, including lookup
- The ability to add a small UTC clock in the Conditions tab

If you operate in the UK or CA, let me know if the band plans need tweaking! #AmateurRadio #HamRadio #iOSDev

Tonights #QRV development update:
- Band plans for US, UK, Canada
- A reference page with info about Grid Squares

Not sure when I'll submit the update, though. I need to verify the band plan accuracy and polish a few things up. #AmateurRadio #HamRadio #iOSDev

I'm looking for Canadian and UK hams to verify my band plans in #QRV. If you're interested, please let me know! I can compensate with a lifetime promo code or the equivalent USD25. I know it's not a ton, but I just need someone with intuitive knowledge to give it a once-over. #AmateurRadio #HamRadio

So I actually have other apps too. CalcuSplit is a multi-runner timer aimed at track coaches with event management and roster importing. Before QRV, it was my most successful app. Today I just finished the big v2.0 redesign! apps.apple.com/us/app/calcu...

Last night, I noticed some issues with QRZ and HamQTH logins persisting (they expire periodically, and I need to silently reauth you). It wasn’t be handled correctly in some cases, causing erroneous “calling not found” messages. I have already submitted the fix! #QRV #HamRadio #AmateurRadio #iOSDev

I added this lockscreen widget on a whim, and it’s ended up being one of my favorite features. The center shows which band has the most spots, and the ring show its proportion of all spots. So right now, 10m has about 2/3 of all spots for my grid. #QRV #HamRadio #AmateurRadio #iOSDev

Had a brief blip in service with the #QRV api when I botched a database password update. The things you learn with your first api…

Luckily, it was only about 5 minutes, and the live spots were quickly flowing again!

I'm working on performance for #QRV tonight. Parsing live spots is slow, and I was doing it on the main thread, blocking UI load. I'm moving some parts to background, but the Live Spots may be empty or old on first load. It should only happen when the app first starts, so I think it's an OK trade.

v1.2 of #QRV was approved overnight.

• lock screen widgets & more reliable widget data.
• QRZ lookbook QSO status
• live spot activity for searched/favorited callsigns

Gonna slow down on new features and focus on optimization next #AmateurRadio #HamRadio #iOSDev

Working on new features tonight for #QRV

Favorited callsigns will highlight recent spots (incl. multiple bands) on the Lookup page; tap into it for more detail. With a QRZ logbook subscription, searches will also show worked bands and confirmation status.
