This online SDR is a KiwiSDR that allows four online users to share the same receiver. It covers 0 to 32 MHz with the following modes: AM, CW, LSB/USB, FM and extensions that allow you to decode SSTV, CW, FSK, and more.

The antenna is an off center fed dipole at about 65 ft above the ground. The elevation is approximate 800 feet above sea level and the terrain slopes off a couple hundred feet toward a large reservoir. Reception is excellent on almost all bands.

If you use this receiver, please sign in (top right of the SDR screen). It will also save your last settings for your next visit. Please be considerate if you are not actively listening and close your browser window so some one else can use one of the four slots.

I welcome emails from anyone who uses this receiver. It is always interesting to know who uses it and what they listen to.

Receiver Timeouts Increased

For your wintertime listening pleasure, the session timeouts and maximum daily times have been increased. On receivers 1, 2, and 3 there is a 3 hour per session timeout and a 10 hour per day maximum per person. On receiver 4 there is a 6 hours per session timeout and a 18 hour per day maximum per person. Timeouts are instituted to make sure that inactive sessions don't tie up a receiver and prevent others from using it. If your session times out you can reconnect up to the daily maximum. https://n1nte.blogspot.com/p/online-kiwisdr-receivers.html

Intermittent Antenna Issue Fixed

Over the last week or two I noticed that signals on the KiwiSDRs occasionally dropped 10-20 dB or more and then would go back up to normal full strength. I dropped the antenna today and noticed that one of the wing nuts on the balun that connected one of leg of the dipole to it was loose. (We've had several days of strong winds over the last couple of weeks.) Been listening to it for about an hour now and the issue seems to be resolved. Enjoy listening!

Improved Interface for Smartphone Use

Some experimental code has been added to all four KiwiSDR receivers that should allow for a better experience while using a smartphone. I welcome any feedback on this that you might have.
