Did you know that I started making the distro which became Skywave Linux because I took a job overseas and missed stations I could receive in Chicago? True!
Skywave Linux v5.10 is now released. skywavelinux.com
#debian #swl #kiwisdr #web888 #novasdr
Skywave Linux is now up to version 5.10; a live bootable Debian Sid. It brings over a thousand internet-connected shortwave receivers to your PC.

WCCO on 830 kHz is covering the #ICE terror on Minneapolis, currently having one of the victims' testimony. Fortunately she was let free. Fair, a bit noisy, on a #KiwiSDR in Farmington, MN #mediumwave #AMradio #ICEraids
One more station I recorded overnight - well, I woke up @ 5:40am local & set it: 1010 WINS, via Prince Edward Island #KiwiSDR. Ball drop coverage! 😍 Mixing w/ CFRX, which is actually convenient from monitoring POV 😜 unfortunately, nothing but Canadian Press news from them 🤦♂️ #mediumwave #NewYear2026
770 CHQR... another disappointment. Canadian Press news about New York ball drop and fireworks & pancakes in Berlin at Edmonton's own time to celebrate 🤦♂️
Meanwhile, CBC Radio 1 is running a mix of live reactions & music performances all night long. So much better😍
#mediumwave #KiwiSDR #NewYear2026
600 CJWW Saskatoon, SK.
Another disappointment.
An instrumental song through the TOH, and then a country song.
#NewYear2026 arrival TOTALLY unnoticed 🤦♂️
Better handled on CHAH 580 in Edmonton, AB, on the same #KiwiSDR, where they did have a song about New Year at least...
#mediumwave
With #NewYear2026 approaching to Spain, I think it's time to recheck the last RNE frequencies still active this morning, via Castlebar Co Mayo #KiwiSDR
558 Punjab Radio and prob. IRIB R.Iran
612 crackling noise😮
774 dead air
1125 dear air here & 1124.95
Seems this is it #mediumwave #DeathOfAMRadio
Can't find Vanuatu active anywhere on #shortwave 😕
Aoki/short-wave.info claims the only freq they use at present is 9960 kHz, although in the past they also operated on 3945 & 7260 kHz.
What is near 9960 right now on Esk, QLD #KiwiSDR is some ISB digital mode on 9961 kHz. Heavy fading on that one
Very good reception on OE5SLN #KiwiSDR in Mehrnbach, Austria #shortwave #DRM #drmlog
6195 kHz: some #DRM came up there. I don't have a decoder installed on my laptop but that matches an announcement about tests from Sender Waldberg🇩🇪, w/ SE-TA 2 & welle370 content repeated on & on, in various DRM configurations, Dec 27-30 @ 0900-1500z
This video via G3SDR #KiwiSDR #shortwave #drmlog
And this is what the 31m band looks like at a #KiwiSDR in Woofferton... I'd say, RNEI & friends own it! 💥💥💥
#shortwave
1323 kHz: weak Horn of Africa-ish music on this #Web888 remote (a #KiwiSDR fork) ➡️ 90.230.255.183:8073 ... who's that?! #mediumwave #mwdx
1033z return (sorry for the long break): ABC Radio National and ABC Radio network continue to report live from #Bondi, w/ some Jewish songs played in-between. ABC Newsradio opted-out to something else. #BondiMemorial #mediumwave #KiwiSDR
1007 UTC there it finally ended! ABC TV audio continues on ABC Radio National, ABC Newsradio, and ABC Local network. #BondiMassacre #BondiMemorial #mediumwave #KiwiSDR
AND the #Bondi massacre memorial service is running on ALL THREE AM networks of ABC!
On this #KiwiSDR in Sydney, these are 576 ABC Radio National, 630 ABC Newsradio, and 702 ABC Radio Sydney.
#BondiMemorial #mediumwave #AMradio
1170 kHz via Joensuu🇫🇮 #KiwiSDR: Firedrake! 😲
I wonder what they're jamming there... probably not KBS... not? Not???
#mediumwave #mwdx
Chinese MW Rumblers in the spotlight again 👀
Just noted Guangxi PBS Jingli Guangbo (also IDing as 970 Nu Zhubo) switching to a different transmitter @ 1703z 😮
Not only the 2nd tx is a bit weaker, but it is a Rumbler!
This via Joensuu #KiwiSDR #mediumwave #mwdx
After 2000z / 5am JST, NHK Radio 2 continues to relay Radio 1, totalling 2/3 #mediumwave band occupacy, now with regularly-scheduled morning news programme, today fully reporting about #tsunami and recent aftershocks of the M7.6 #earthquake that hit at 1415z. #Japan #KiwiSDR
At the moment, both NHK Radio 1 & Radio 2 are running the same feed... one Japanese man is literally FLOODING the whole #mediumwave band giving #tsunami observation records 😮 #Japan #KiwiSDR
Just heard the news of yet another #TsunamiWarning in #Japan topping a Wydarzenia 24 bulletin here in Poland.
Yes, NHK Radio 2 is on w/ English simul-translation of NHK General TV #emergency broadcast.
Note NHK Radio 2 is about to close on March 31, 2026!

Skywave Linux internet SDR list now shows the freq and mode preset.
User-friendliness up a notch on the Skywave Linux list of internet SDRs. Now it shows the current frequency and mode preset. Click on a link and that is how the new tab is set up - on freq, on mode, good to go!

Whoa, the whole #KiwiSDR proxy, along with all KiwiSDRs hooked to it, have gone down exactly at 0000z 😳
Now acc. to hfunderground.com forum, I should be seeing WTF Radio Worldwide on 6925 kHz USB. It is there just barely audible vs a Chinese OTH radar @ Ireland North West #KiwiSDR, along w/ some more sideband stuff.
Well I just did notice 6930 LSB on my SDR w/ that antenna.
Aside from being very noisy, esp. in upper #mediumwave, Gqerbeha #KiwiSDR also measures Radio Islam carrier as ~10 Hz below 1548 kHz, on a faint signal w/ Islamic prayers & English comments.
Websdr sire K3FEF upgrades to NovaSDR (PhantomSDR) and RX-888 SDR

A recent video from @shortwavelistener on YouTube discussing 70-60m band touched on what turns out to be Indonesian freebanders transmitting on 4 MHz in AM... in a similar fashion to ruZZian 3 MHz band.
Indeed, just found a few on Bandung🇮🇩 #KiwiSDR #shortwave #pirate
I don't have my Asian IPTV playlist I had on my laptop before I replaced its hard drive, but I can grab a #KiwiSDR in Oita, W Japan, and monitor NHK Radio 2 carrying English simultranslation of NHK General TV #tsunami coverage, presumably // NHK World-Japan TV. Still on #mediumwave until Mar 2026
