(13 Dec '22) Computer replaced! The server for the WebSDR was swapped in its entirety with new hardware to resolve the issue of USB ports failing on the plug-in cards. The only difference that you (the user) should see is that the 15 meter receiver is working again! Using the old server and spare parts, a second server (link) covering 160, 12 and the top of 10 meters was brought online.
(22 March '23) Several Internet outages caused KFS to be inaccessible for several hours today. Upgrades to the Internet connection are expected to occur in the next few months.
