What is changing

A product record written around capabilities, not marketing noise.

Follow meaningful additions and refinements without tying the website to a single current version label.

Now01

Clearer SDR setup and portable preferences

Listen via SDR now resolves an unconfigured first run with an explicit Public KiwiSDR or My RTL-SDR choice. Portable RTL DSP and Listening Scan preferences can join the existing iCloud tuning preferences, while personal RTL endpoints and hardware profiles remain device-local.

Now02

Higher-resolution personal RTL waterfall

Smooth now uses an 8K FFT and Detailed uses 16K, preserving finer spectral bins while keeping the existing RF sample-rate profiles and a bounded visual update cadence.

Now03

Smart SDR tuning memory

Step, Mode, and bandwidth controls are shared between the dashboard and waterfall. FM gets a 100 kHz tuning step, remembered bandwidth returns by mode/context, and optional Auto mode makes conservative broadcast-band choices.

Now04

System-integrated SDR listening

Personal RTL-TCP and Kiwi listening can continue as background audio with Lock Screen / Control Center playback, while Listening Scan remains a foreground, schedule-aware personal-RTL workflow.

Now05

Personal RTL-TCP receivers

Add and verify a personal RTL-TCP host, choose its HF and performance profile, make it preferred, and tune it directly from the same broadcast workflow used for Global SDR.

Now06

Custom On Air workflows

Create multiple named views with appearance, schedule filters, exclusions, transmitter-path constraints, forecast thresholds, space-weather context, and independent ordering.

Now07

Deeper evidence

Broadcast details, source comparison, Path Atlas, and Model Audit expose inputs, assumptions, conflicts, validation, and technical provenance.

Foundation08

Unified shortwave workflow

Multi-source schedules, search, saved broadcasts, notifications, Labs, logbook, compatible receivers, and iCloud-supported preferences.
