Egzamin LRC
A Polish language study app for the LRC maritime radio operator exam. All 616 questions from the official set, split the way the exam splits them, a knowledge base written for the exam and your own progress statistics, all stored on the device and all working offline.
Free on Android. One optional purchase removes the ads for good.
The question set
The questions are filed exactly the way the exam files them, so working through a subject in the app means working through the thing you will be marked on.

The complete official set616
The English subject is in English, questions and answers both, the same way it reaches you on the exam paper. Nothing is translated into Polish and back.
Three ways to study
A session of twenty questions, one after another. The app leans toward the questions you have not seen yet and the ones you get wrong most often, so you repeat what actually needs work instead of cycling through material you already know.
Mirrors the structure of the real exam: four subjects, five random questions each. Your result stays hidden until the whole session is over, and passing means at least three correct answers in every subject, so a weak subject cannot be made up somewhere else.
Pick a subject and work through every question in it. Answers are marked the moment you tap: a wrong pick turns red, the correct one lights up green. You can go back and change your mind as often as you like.
Knowledge base
Twenty nine articles written for the LRC exam rather than adapted from a textbook, split into four parts.
MAYDAY, MAYDAY RELAY and radio silence, PAN PAN, SECURITE, how to cancel a false alert, and DSC alerting on MF and HF once you are well away from shore.
The VHF radio with DSC and the MF/HF set with its DSC controller, the EPIRB beacon, the SART transponder, NAVTEX, Inmarsat and EGC SafetyNET, the path your alert takes through COSPAS-SARSAT, and emergency power and antennas, with photos of the hardware.
The phonetic alphabet, VHF channels and MF/HF frequencies, calling a ship or a coast station, reading out numbers, positions and time, NBDP radiotelex, and English in the spirit of SMCP.
How the exam runs, GMDSS and sea areas A1 to A4, MMSI and ship documents, priority of communication and the duties of a radio operator, bands and emissions from MF to VHF, propagation and picking an HF frequency, and radio work during a search and rescue operation.
Every article carries an estimated reading time and ends with related topics. Search ignores Polish diacritics, so typing lacznosc finds Łączność.

Questions and articles are installed with the app, so a passage with no coverage is as good a place to study as your desk.
No sign up, no login, no email address. Install the app and start on the first question.

Free on Google Play. The ads never block you from answering a question, and a single one time purchase removes them for good if you would rather study without interruptions.
