Skywave Schedules is primarily designed for
use with portable shortwave radios allowing you to easily find
shortwave broadcast or utility stations by listing their frequency

Utility stations are listed separately from broadcast stations and can be accessed via the menu.
Shortwave schedule broadcast seasons change at the end of March (to Season 'A') and October (to Season 'B') which can result in inaccurate listings being displayed until broadcasters publish their broadcast schedules or listeners locate what frequencies have changed. Use the 'Update Schedules' option in the app to ensure you have the latest schedules. The app author is not responsible for accuracy of schedules please consider this if you review the app.
