Industry-leading HF radio communications integrated with devices your operators already carry.
In high-stakes operations, mobility is critical to success. Standard HF consoles tie an operator to one fixed position. Codan Xtend breaks that constraint. Running on a smartphone or tablet, this HF radio control software enables up to four operators to remotely operate a single Codan radio across all commonly used voice modes and text-based messaging. Codan Xtend puts industry-leading HF radio into devices your operators already carry. Full radio control. Minimal training.
Effective coordination requires more than just vocal communications. Supporting all Codan message and call types, this smartphone radio control app slots into existing HF networks. Google Maps integration translates received HF GPS and emergency position calls onto a live map, which keeps operating when internet or cellular coverage drops. Codan Xtend keeps you connected when it matters most.
Remote communications must not come at the cost of security. Codan Xtend maintains the same verified security and encryption as its connected console. Toggleable voice encryption and PIN-controlled access add security beyond standard Wi-Fi password protection. Field tested across an extensive range of Android and iOS devices, Codan Xtend has proven security and dependability in the field, keeping your operations connected, secure and mobile.

All commonly used voice modes plus selective voice, channel test, emergency, phone, Convoy web message, and 3G ALE SMS.
Translates received HF asset GPS and emergency position calls onto Google maps, with a cached map mode when offline.
Toggle voice encryption on or off and set the vocoder rate from the app without using the handset or console.
