Ham Listening

Ham Listening turns your phone into a window on the world's radio. Browse hundreds of public KiwiSDR receivers around the globe and tune the shortwave and amateur bands live — no radio, no antenna and no licence required.

LISTEN ANYWHERE • Browse hundreds of public KiwiSDR receivers hosted by operators worldwide • Pick a receiver by country, then by source — or let "Best available" jump to the strongest open one • Receivers near your grid are sorted first once you enter your locator • Hear CW, SSB and distant broadcasters, and find out how the bands really sound from another continent • A bundled receiver list means the picker still works when the live directory is having a bad day

TUNE LIKE A RADIO • A live waterfall with a fixed centre cursor — drag the waterfall under it to tune, pinch to zoom, tap to jump • AM, LSB, USB, CW and NFM demodulation, each with the right passband applied for you • A band-plan overlay showing what each part of the band is for, in IARU Region 1, 2 or 3 • An S-meter and a live audio-FFT spectrum for receivers that offer no wideband waterfall • Save frequency marks and jump straight back to them • Direct frequency entry, step keys and adjustable volume

BUILT TO KEEP PLAYING • Audio keeps running when you switch apps or lock the screen • Reconnects gracefully on its own when a stream drops • Works over Wi-Fi or mobile data, and runs on modest data using compressed audio • Remembers the receiver, frequency and mode you were last on • Light and dark themes, adjustable font size, weekly tips and in-app version history • No account, no sign-up, no ads, no analytics and no tracking

PERFECT FOR • Shortwave listeners and DXers with no antenna space • Licensed operators checking how their band sounds from the other side of the world • Anyone curious about radio who does not own a receiver • Travellers, apartment dwellers and anyone in a high-noise location • Teachers and clubs demonstrating HF propagation live

PRIVACY • Your callsign, grid and email are stored only on your device. • No account, no sign-up, no ads, no analytics SDKs, no advertising ID and no tracking of any kind.
