Hi,
We have just added the new iOS app for digital _QST _to the iTunes store. While it is available now for all members, will not be publicizing it until we make sure that it works correctly. We are asking any Board Members, SMs or staff (along with a few other selected testers) who have an iOS device to try to app and let us know how it is working. We are aware of one know bug with Facebook sharing. This has been reported and is being worked on.
For information on obtaining and using the app, see the information below that we will be sending to members in a week or two.
If you have any questions, you can direct them to Magdalena (Magz) Owczarska at W1MGZ@arrl.org [1] who is coordinating the launch of the application.
Thanks for your help.
Regards/73,
Harold
