A live map of current KiWiSDR receivers available on the network. It allows users to explore a directory of web-controlled receivers for listening to HF and VHF stations worldwide. The site provides access to remote ham radio stations online, making it a valuable resource for amateur radio operators.

Monitoring radio communications through web-accessible Software Defined Radios (SDRs) has become a popular facet of the hobby, and Receiverbook serves as a centralized directory for locating these remote assets. The platform aggregates listings for both **OpenWebRX+** and **KiwiSDR** installations, providing a gateway to a diverse array of frequencies and operating modes. My own experience with similar directories highlights their utility for casual listening, DXing, and even troubleshooting local RFI by comparing signals across different geographic locations. The directory details specific receiver locations, from Bedford, England, to Marahau, New Zealand, and Berlin, Germany. Each entry often specifies the supported frequency ranges, which can span LF, MF, HF, VHF, and UHF bands, including dedicated segments like 80m, 40m, 2m, and 70cm. Many listings explicitly note support for HAM radio, broadcast services, and public two-way radio, making it a versatile tool for various listening interests. Beyond general frequency coverage, some entries provide granular details about the underlying hardware, such as the **SDRPlay RSP1A** or RTL-SDR Blog V3, and even the antenna types employed, like the Sirio Gain-Master. This level of detail is invaluable for serious SWLs and hams looking to understand the capabilities and limitations of a particular remote receiver before tuning in.

SDR Television v1.0 operates as a DVB-S2 / AAC / H264 / H265 program, specifically engineered for QO-100 satellite Digital Amateur Television (DATV) operations. It provides a full-duplex solution on modern x86 computers running Windows 10 or 11 (64-bit, 8+ cores, AVX2 support recommended), leveraging DLLs from _SDR Console_ for control of devices like _Pluto_ and _LibreSDR.TV_. The software requires installation of the SDR Radio kit for wideband mode support. Initial development focused on a proof-of-concept for QO-100, with future enhancements planned to include H266 / AV1 / Opus codecs and an improved cross-band user interface. The current stable release functions reliably for QO-100 DATV. Users must install the SDR Radio kit, followed by the SDR Television kit, into the same directory. Support inquiries are handled via the SDR-Radio.com mailing list, ensuring direct assistance for operational questions.
