Added the Hammer gesture library. Now swipe through the ranges, double-tap to run a scan. There is no single tap, to allow you to use the popups more easily.

A few bug fixes. Thanks, users! Also a few small usability fixes.

There are now a set number of steps for each scan (currently 50). Setting a step forced the user to do mental calculations to determine what worked best. Let's remove that burden.

First regular release. From now on, changes will be 1.x.x

If you have a previous version of this app, you will probably need to uninstall it before installing this one.

Have fun!

First usable version Pre-release
Pre-release

This is the first build that seems to work well enough. It has frequency ranges set up for 160m to 6m.
A debug APK is here for you to install and use. In the next few days I will clean up the rough edges, then make a release.

How to use:

  1. Pair your phone with the MINI60. Make sure that "MINI60" is listed in the paired Bluetooth device list. If it has another name, let me know, and we can make that work, too.
  2. Prepare the MINI60 for use.
    a. Connect coaxial cable
    b. Turn on
    c. Press 'Set' twice so it shows 'PC Link'
    d. Press 'Down' until it says 'Waiting Link'
  3. Tap the Open60 app screen slowly to cycle through the preset ranges.
  4. Double-tap to start scanning. The red dot should turn to green (Connected) and/or blue (Scanning). The blue will be progressively filled indicating scan progress. When done, the dot will be green again.

That is all. We made this app to be as simple as possible! Since this project is only a few days old, there are many things we would like to add, and bugs we would like to fix. Hope that this helps you.

A couple of example scans on mobile whip antennas. Red is VSWR and green is impedance:
