Dear friends,

 currently, more than 500 Kiwi-SDRs are available at www.kiwisdr.com , and most of these cover the entire HF spectrum. Consequently, monitoring and decoding of professional HF digital data stations - from exotic locations all over the world! - is more convenient than ever before. Hundreds of screenshots will be published in our brandnew 2021 editions. See dozens of samples on our hotfrequencies website!

We've passed the solar cycle minimum in 2019, and propagation conditions are improving fast: on 5 October we received the low-power transmitter of aircraft ET-AVB, an Ethiopian Airlines A350 at an altitude of 41,000 feet enroute from Addis to Dubai, sending automatic position reports every few minutes on 21955 kHz. HF radio continues to be fascinating!

We're now working on our new products

 

- 2021/2022 Guide to Utility Radio Stations

- 2021 Shortwave Frequency Guide

- 2021 Super Frequency List on CD

- 2021 Frequency Database for the Perseus LF-HF Software-Defined Receiver

to be published on 10 December 2020.

If you are able to supply additional new frequencies and stations, your cooperation would be highly appreciated. Please let us have your data by 20 October 2020.

The continuously updated product Digital Data Decoder Screenshots on USB Stick now covers more than 19,000 (nineteen thousand!) screenshots from 1997 to today. Feed your PC or Tablet with this data, and the "slide show" will keep you busy for a few days - or weeks!

Shortwave is dead? Well, we've been told so ... for 52+ years. More than 900 selected new digital data decoder screenshots will be published on our 2021 Super Frequency List on CD ;-))
