YES, there is a Droid apparently, it's called HamSatDroid. You can find it in the Android Market, just do a search for ' amateur radio ' it works very well.

I have the HyGain Oscar Beams that are about 20 years old. It appears that one of the relays is shorted. Does anyone know a repair for this or do I have to get the $65 replacement from HyGain?

Thanks

Bob,

Yes there is an Android App called HamSatDroid available for free from the Android Market Place.

Works well. Once you run a prediction, touch that pass and a sky radar map view will showup and give you a live overhead pass view. This lets you follow one satellite in real time along the pass path.

I used it extensively during my KH6 Dexpedition in March-April.
