Title: SDR.HU
Post by: NJQA on January 12, 2020, 1705 UTC
The popular website SDR.HU, used to locate on line SDR receivers, has changed their policies to only allow access by licensed ham radio operators.

Other alternative sites exist for non-hams to find SDR receivers such as https://ve3sun.com/KiwiSDR, http://kiwisdr.com/public and http://rx.linkfanel.net.

This is very annoying. Luckily, I've got some of the SDR's bookmarked and they still work fine. So if someone had the links to all of them in a list, then they could still listen.
I only have a couple bookmarked though :(

I wonder why they did this? This is going to greatly effect their popularity as a lot of SWLers are not hams. Seems like a bad choice to me.

EDIT: Well, I spoke too soon. Looks like cool AM radio posted a list: https://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,62141.0.html

It has now gone completely, SDR.hu and openwebrx project is over.
You can still access the Kiwisdr project radios at http://kiwisdr.com/. But the other radios have no listing.

John Seamonds of Kiwi (and this board) has volunteered to host and maintain the function, if other parties agree.

Thanks John!
