With the app, the digitally coded broadcast is received via the microphone and displayed accordingly as an image. The coded transmission is a low-frequency signal (LF signal) in the frequency range of the human hearing, which is reminiscent of the old analog modem days. Here is an example of how that sounds:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.wolphi.com\/sound\/wefax1.mp3\">Weather fax audio example<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/open-boat-projects.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Wetterfax2.jpg.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-1619 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/open-boat-projects.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Wetterfax2.jpg.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"168\" srcset=\"https:\/\/open-boat-projects.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Wetterfax2.jpg.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/open-boat-projects.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Wetterfax2.jpg-16x9.jpeg 16w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Fig .: Weather fax app<\/p>\n<p>The paid Android weather fax app HF WEATHER FAX takes care of the following:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Manual or auto mode<\/li>\n<li>Spectrum analyzer for easy frequency tuning and reception<\/li>\n<li>Automatic start and end tone detection (in auto mode)<\/li>\n<li>Synchronization at the beginning of the transmission (in auto mode)<\/li>\n<li>Automatic storage of weather images on SD card (in auto mode)<\/li>\n<li>Automatic correction functions in the event of malfunctions<\/li>\n<li>Auto scroll mode<\/li>\n<li>Picture zoom function<\/li>\n<li>Black and white image with threshold setting<\/li>\n<li>Storage of historical weather faxes<\/li>\n<li>Timer function for automatic recording<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Basically, the app takes away important functions of the reception settings and thus simplifies operation.
