Whether you’re operating during ARRL Field Day, chasing contacts for POTA, calling CQ in your ham shack, or just checking FCC rules on the go, this app gives you a complete and easy-to-use reference to the official US ham radio bands.
Designed with clarity and speed in mind, this mobile bandplan fieldguide is built for hams of all license classes—Technician, General, and Extra. It’s more than just a chart: it’s a visual and functional tool that helps you understand your operating privileges based on your class and location (ITU Region 2 – United States). Many of the band specific part 97 rules are included.
🎯 Why Choose This App?
• Great for everyday operators and weekend contesters alike
• Keeps you compliant with FCC laws and frequency rules
• Useful during emergency communications, ARRL events, and field operations
• Perfect for learning band privileges, if you’re studying for your Technician or General license
* Great if you are into Short Wave Listening, SWL
🔑 Features for Every Ham Operator:
• Instant reference to the US ham radio band plan – Quickly see what frequencies you can use, sorted by license class
• Graphical band charts – Visual layouts of each amateur radio band make it easy to find your segment and understand frequency allocations
• License-based band plans – Tailored displays for Technician, General, and Extra licensees or any of the legacy license classes (Novice and Advanced)
• ARRL Gentleman’s Agreements – Includes voluntary usage suggestions adopted by the ARRL to promote smooth operation
• Support for seasonal contests – Great for Field Day or Parks on the Air, POTA, when you need fast access to band data to know where you are allowed to operate in a congested band.
• US callsign lookup – Quickly identify hams by their callsign using the built-in lookup using hamdb.org's database.
• Partial international support – Canada, Germany, Australia, and Czech Republic callsign lookup included
• Includes additional radio services – View allocated bands and channels for non-ham services like:
• CB (Citizens Band Radio)
• FRS (Family Radio Service)
• GMRS (General Mobile Radio Service)
• Maritime Radiofacsimile broadcasts
• MURS (Multi-Use Radio Service)
• NOAA Weather Radio
• NIST Time & Frequency signals
• USAF Messages (HFGCS)
• Offline use – Designed to work even in remote locations with no cell service
