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
Just found 8N2HQ on a Japanese #KiwiSDR... you gotta enjoy the way he calls πŸ˜… #shortwave #hamradio #IARUHF
But there's DX to be had in Japan too πŸ™‚ like TI1K πŸ‡¨πŸ‡· on 14248 USB. A number of JA stations are contacting him successfully #hamradio #IARUHF #shortwave #KiwiSDR
14250 USB: B5HQ, CRAC πŸ‡¨πŸ‡³ station #hamradio #IARUHF #shortwave #KiwiSDR
That said, I did find a YL on 14281 USB: DX1PRO πŸ‡΅πŸ‡­ zone 50 #shortwave #hamradio #IARUHF #KiwiSDR
Quite a lot of contest activity on 20m in Asia, here via #KiwiSDR in OitaπŸ‡―πŸ‡΅... but predominantly in CW. Much less stations are using SSB. Quite surprising 😳 #hamradio #shortwave #IARUHF
Listening to 540 (really 539.97) XEWA Los40 San Luis PotosiπŸ‡²πŸ‡½ on a South Texas #KiwiSDR, and while the music is good, I can't stand them blasting station IDs mid-song! Like... you know where else you can hear such an outrage? naZi belaruZZia. And Ukraine, before the war. Third world 🀑 #mediumwave
Any good AM station in #Texas covering the #floods? Not WOAI, Coast to Coast AM there with anything but. #mediumwave #AMradio #KiwiSDR

I didn't know that KiwiSDR supports NCDXF/IARU International Beacon Project scanning too!

What a great way to check DX conditions.

I love that Mastodon is full of cool things to discover.

A while ago someone posted a link to #KiwiSDR, so I looked it up and was like "wait... those are... software-defined radios... open on the internet... spread all over the world... for anyone to use?"
