I had no idea the KiwiSDR app had an HF Fax extension. After reading your message, I loaded a KiwiSDR session in Europe and used the Fax feature. It couldn&#8217;t have been easier. The screen grab (above) came from my first attempt.<\/p>\n<p>The KiwiSDR network is truly amazing. I use it all the time&#8211;especially if there&#8217;s an important broadcast happening and I can&#8217;t easily receive it at home or while traveling. As an example, during the recent French elections, I listened to results roll in on France Inter mediumwave from a KiwiSDR in Italy. It felt like being there.<\/p>\n<p>My one feature request would be that the KiwiSDR app include some form of native broadcast recording like <a href=\"http:\/\/websdr.ewi.utwente.nl:8901\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">the WebSDR at U Twente<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Many thanks for the update, Mark!<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/swling.com\/blog\/2016\/09\/marks-multi-user-sdr-is-now-online\/\">Click here to read about Mark&#8217;s KiwiSDR installation.<\/a><\/p>\n<h2>Would you like to host your own KiwiSDR?<\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/amzn.to\/2rTraMM\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">The whole system only costs $299 US<\/a>.\u00a0The <a href=\"http:\/\/kiwisdr.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">KiwiSDR site<\/a> has a list of distributors around the world.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/amzn.to\/2rTraMM\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Amazon has units in stock at $299 US shipped<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>I would have purchased a KiwiSDR ages ago&#8211;during their Kickstarter campaign&#8211;if I only had the Internet bandwidth at home to support it.
