RF Workbench

One platform, specialized engineering applications

RF Workbench is not intended to be a single screen that tries to do everything. It provides the shared foundation for focused applications that solve specific broadcast engineering problems while using common data, calculation engines, and user workflows.

Platform goals

• Keep FCC and engineering data organized and current
• Reduce repetitive database and spreadsheet work
• Make technical comparisons easier to review
• Support repeatable, auditable engineering workflows
• Expand beyond FM translators without abandoning the tools already built

Applications

RF Navigator is the first public application under RF Workbench, with study modules for FM translators, LPFM stations and second-adjacent waivers, full-power FM, AM, and TV.

RadioDNS Check is a free public tool for broadcasters. Enter a US call sign (or a station's frequency, PI code and country code) and it follows the same steps a hybrid-radio receiver does: registration, service records, the station's SI.xml file, logos and streams. It then explains in plain English what works and what to fix. No login, nothing stored. Open RadioDNS Check

Additional applications will address coverage, interference, terrain, antenna data, and other broadcast RF tasks as they are completed.

Browser-based delivery

RF Workbench is designed for modern web browsers, allowing updates to data and engineering logic to be delivered centrally rather than requiring each user to maintain a separate desktop installation.
