Many thanks to Dennis Walter with Bonito<\/a>, who shares the following for anyone interested in the Megaloop FX or MegaDipol::<\/p>\n

If anyone like to test the MegaLoop FX<\/a> live on the air, you can do it here:<\/p>\n

http:\/\/emeraldsdr.ddns.net:8073\/<\/a><\/p>\n

The MegaDipol<\/a> can be tested on the same location here:<\/p>\n

The location of both KiwiSDR receivers is Carlow, Ireland. Both receivers exhibit excellent low noise characteristics.<\/p>\n

Indeed, as I publish this post I’m listening to near perfect copy of Radio France International–using the MegaDipol<\/a>–on 17850 kHz as they report the results of the FIFA Women’s World Cup. (Congratulations team USA!<\/em>)<\/p>\n
