Each year, I spend time going updating our curated list of amateur and shortwave radio apps<\/a>.<\/p>\n

I do my best to keep this list of applications up-to-date and am always on the lookout for new ones. Thing is, new apps are developed every day–certainly a moving target for this editor.<\/p>\n

This is where you can help…<\/p>\n

Please comment on this post with your favorite radio-related iOS, Android, and Windows Phone applications. Please link to the app and\/or mention what operating system you use. Of course, please tell us<\/a> what you love about your choice apps.<\/p>\n

A prize! Woot!<\/h1>\n

Next Friday (August 23, 2019) I’ll pick one random comment from this post and send the lucky reader a copy of Pirate Radio: The incredible saga of America’s underground, illegal broadcasters<\/em><\/a> by Andrew Yoder. This classic pirate radio history book even includes an audio CD with clips from famous (and infamous!) pirate radio stations.<\/p>\n

Many thanks to our friends at Universal Radio<\/strong><\/a> who supplied this to us as a gift for our readers.<\/p>\n

What apps supplement your radio fun?\u00a0 Please comment!<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

Congratulations to Peter Atkinson who won the CC Buds Solo<\/a> and April who won the Joe Carr Loop antenna book<\/a> in our last giveaways!<\/em><\/p>\n
