It works also for MW and LW Receiver is located at Twente University(Enschede/Holland) and it relays AM reception from their AM receiver onto your pc. Give in your favorite SW/MW/LW frequency into the frequency-bar like: 6095 for KBC on weekends or Radio TienGold: 828 khz or MAR when its on or AFN 873 khz. or Laser558 on 6070khz You can also scan the whole AM-band Its great !
PS : - If you use FireFox browser you have to enable Java Platform SE... on Plug-ins : go on Tools > Addons > Plug-ins > Java Platform SE.... > enable > restart FF - otherwise it won't work
it works on 2182 khz but I hear only electronic statics - what is 2182 ? - mind the receiver is located at the Dutch German border - perhapes signal is too weak to get there Ahh ... now someone is talking - but voice is very distorted like single-side band

It's the International Marine Emergency/calling channel for MF. There was a time when you could have heard me on there. You should hear Shetland Coastguard callingout their MSI broadcast preamble soon*. If you can then tune to 1770kc/s, you should be able to hear the bx.
*They use 750w to transmit so should be able to reach the rx.

changing frequencies is a bit slow at the moment - takes about 20 seconds - 82 users + chat playing around on the radio - but 6070 khz. comes in quite well with Laser558
its the best toy for radio lovers I've come upon in the last years - especially for scanning SW bands and MW bands for pirates above 1602 khz. But it also works fine on LW - mind Java has to be activated on your pc - if you use FireFox you have to re-activate Java on your plug-ins http://websdr.ewi.utwente.nl:8901/ have fun !! 73, alec
Quote: coastie wrote in post #14I've just been on there (still am in fact) but I can't find anywhere to directly input the frequency I want to listen to.
depending probably on your browser the frequency bar is below that (what they call) "Waterfall and above 'bandwidth" settings - just have a closer look. Mind Java has to be activated if you use firefox
Oh - or you have to put in your call-sign or nick-name into the call sign bar before frequency bar shows up - try that ! - I think thats the way to get access for scanning the frequency

When I click onto it a box comes up telling me that the application wants to run an earlier version of Java and can it go ahead with that. I click on "Run" and everything seems fine.
I've found the frequency bar but cannot directly input a frequency. I.E. 2182.0

have you put in a 'call name' ? when the page is loaded you should hear a humming from the frequency that is originally given in - if so the tool works. (Java works) after this start browser again - to confirm registration. Then go on frequency bar to paste frequency or click on 'Waterfall' if its not already open - click AM or LW or SW on the bottom of that widget and scroll frequency with your mouse-wheel. With the wheel you can use the scale like on a normal radio - or as said give in a frequency and move forward or backwards by clickin + or - This way you get through the whole AM band - try 6095 to see if it works properly
6095 works excellent 1602 very anorak; 1395 nothing 2182.0 - I can't hear anything 6070 - still very low - gets much better at night 252 from Eire works fine 1645 Dutch pirate - awful music
if too many users are on it may take a few seconds to get the given in frequency to work

6070 khz SW l be off air during the next days for some time. the new tx is to be delivered at the end of next week, so we have to do some modifications in the building. and during the test period it will be on / off. If you want to stay informed, write us a mail: studio@radio6150.de then we can keep you up to date!
if you have no SW radio of your own or too much electronic mush at your home you can listen to pirate radio classics on 6070 khz via Wide-band WebSDR : http://websdr.ewi.utwente.nl:8901/
here is a similiar tool to receive 6095 khz (KBC / Transport-Radio) or 6070 khz (Caroline Classics) via the i-net. Its a radio receiver situated in Bedford UK so you can receive what can be received over there - mind you have to register first to use that radio http://beta.remotehams.com/orb.html?id=2185 I've tried a few stations and it works fine though of course recption is different due to the different location of the AM receiver With that tool UK AM stations come in better quality of course For SW-reception e.g. 6095 khz or 6070 khz difference shouldn't be too big though
For our overseas members : to move forward on MW frequencies you have to do it in 9er steps. I've just tried Transport Radio on 6095 khz - it comes in fine but its more stabile on the Dutch tool - less fading I would say
