DroidNavtex for marine
Decodes NAVTEX messages through the microphone or through a connected interface
DroidNavtex decodes NAVTEX messages from your receiver through your phones/tablets microphone or through a connected interface. Special audio filters even decode very weak signals through the microphone and make DroidNavtex a very affordable alternative to high priced decoders.NAVTEX broadcasts worldwide on 518 kHz and 490 kHz using a data mode called SITOR-B (amateur radio (Ham Radio) operators might recognize it as AMTOR).Sharp filters and a sophisticated forward error correction algorithm makes decoding of very weak signals possible.Get your copy of DroidNavtex today, and never be without up to date marine weather information and marine warnings again..You need to have a receiver which can receive 518KHz or 490KHz SSB to use this app!!An “Auto mode” finds the frequency and the sideband of the Navtex signal automatically. With “Auto mode” turned off the frequency and sideband can be adjusted manually.A built-in database stores the received messages which can then be filtered, sorted and shared. Messages can be deleted individually, in groups or by age.To save battery power 7 timers can be set to start DroidNavtex at a given time to decode messages. All timers can be set in local time or UTC.Great to use on all seagoing sail and power vessels, sailboats, power boats, fishing boats and commercial vessels.You can find a detailed user guide at www.droidnavtex.com I realize that the 15 minutes which Google allows is not enough for testing DroidNavtex.

Works perfectly on my IC756 pro to mobile through audio cable.
Does what it says well. Save yourself money.
Decodes the signal very well with my Sony phone. Very surprised that it would and the ease of use between aspects of the application is its best feature.
using it with a Tecusn PL-660 radio and a HTC One (M7)
I'm using this with an Elton G3 SSB receiver with a headphone line out into an HTC Desire phone. Works really well. A few more alarms would make it perfect.
I mainly charter sailing boats and I have yet to encounter a charter boat with navtex. Receiving weather forecasts while at sea in remote parts of the world can be exceptionally difficult. This little utility will give me access to English language forecasts worldwide via my very old Sony ICF7600. I have only tried this utility at home a couple of hundred miles from the nearest transmitter but despite a really scratchy signal, this utility locked on and translated it to text. Very impressive.
Installed on Samsung Galaxy SII and Asus Transformer TF101. A pleasure to use. The autotune function is the best I have seen, locking onto the signal in fractions of a second and at very low signal levels. Radios used - Sony ICF-SW100 and Sony ICF-SW7600.
