WaveLogApi decided an upload had succeeded from the HTTP status alone. Wavelog validates
after responding, so a rejected QSO comes back as 200 with `{"status":"failed","reason":
"..."}` - and the uploader then called markUploaded and dropped it from the queue. The
contact was lost and the operator was told the upload succeeded.
Response shapes are transcribed from the Wavelog API reference, not guessed: success is
`status: success` or `successful`, a duplicate is `status: dupe` with a 200, failures are
`status: failed` with `reason` or `status: error` with `message`.
WavelogResponse reads the body. Four outcomes: accepted and duplicate both clear the
queue entry, because the log holds the QSO either way; rejected keeps it and surfaces the
server's own explanation; and a status field we cannot recognise also keeps it, since
costing a retry beats losing a contact. Parsed as text rather than with JSONObject because
org.json is compileOnly in core:domain and a JVM test would otherwise assert against a
stub. Whitespace around separators is collapsed before matching - a first attempt listed
spacings and missed `{ "status" : "failed" }`, which a probe caught.
Two other things in the same area.
The ten-minute auto-upload loop is gone. It retried the queue in the background with no
way to tell the operator anything: a grid mismatch was swallowed by an empty if block and
every other failure retried silently forever. A QSO that cannot be uploaded now waits for
a manual upload from settings, where the result is actually shown.
The upload path no longer builds user-facing text in Kotlin. UploadOutcome carried a
pre-formatted Chinese string, so the message ignored the device language whatever the
locale files said. It now reports a Reason the view model maps to resources, which needed
a format-argument overload on IShowToast to get a count into a localised message.
Look4Sat: Satellite tracker
Radio satellite tracker and pass predictor for Android, inspired by Gpredict
Track satellite passes with ease!
Thanks to Celestrak and SatNOGS you have access to over 9000 active satellites.
You can search the entire database by NORAD Catalog Number or the satellite's name.
Orbital positions and passes are calculated relative to your location.
To get reliable data make sure to set the station position via the app Settings.
The application is built using Kotlin, Coroutines, Jetpack Compose and Navigation.
It is now and always will be completely ad-free and open-source.
Main features:
- Predicting satellite positions and passes for up to 10 days
- Showing the list of currently active and upcoming satellite passes
- Showing the active pass progress, polar trajectory and transceivers info
- Showing the satellite positional data, footprint and ground track on the map
- Custom TLE satellite data import is available via Three Line Element .txt files
- Offline first: calculations are made offline. Weekly TLE data update is recommended.
