for those with older SSB radios wishing to use selcall, there is now an iPhone/iPad app that will generate the codan type selcall.
Just search the app store using "selcall". I have no connection with the author of the software except for requesting him to add, which he kindly did.

Thanks for posting this up. An interesting development.
Apologies if these are dumb questions, but I launched right in a paid my $3 to
check this out, and now I want to know how it works....
I assume the Codan tone mode is what is used by mobile HF radios regardless of what 'brand' of transceiver you have. Is that right?
What does the Center frequency mean? What guidance would you provide regarding adjustment.
Is Call ID the selcall number set in the other radio/base you are calling, or your own selcall number? Likewise for Send ID?

It will work with any transceiver and mimics the tones generated by a selcall module in a late model unit.
Just leave the center frequency as is.
You enter your selcall ID and the one you are callling and hey presto, it works.
I tried it on the android version,. Neat app.
