## Description

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.
