Both found by an auditor comparing behaviour against the released build rather than
against the intent of the change.
Prefix-first portable callsigns were rejected. CallsignEntry took the first segment -
`call.substringBefore('/')` - and required a letter and a digit in it. A portable call can
be written prefix-first, DL/W1AW or ZL/JA1ABC or OH/W1AW/MM, where the leading token is a
country prefix with no digit at all. Measured: five such forms were refused where the old
length-only check had accepted them. Any segment may now carry the callsign.
JSON cookie exports stopped working for QRZ. QrzGridParser.cookieHeader converts the JSON
array a browser extension produces into a Cookie header, and it had zero production
callers - the raw pasted text went straight into the header. The old client normalised it.
So an operator whose export had been working would see their cookie sent as a literal JSON
blob, QRZ would serve its signed-out page, and the app would tell them the cookie had
expired when it was perfectly good. A raw `k=v; k=v` paste was unaffected, which is why
this survived review.
Both are cases where a rewrite lost behaviour the old code had. Neither had a test.
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.
