Quest: Broadcastify

Warning

This page is a work-in-progress. Many components are incomplete.

In this quest, we’ll listen-in on repeaters that broadcast all of their transmissions using the Broadcastify service.

Broadcastify retransmits policy, fire, and other emergency transmissions in addition to Amateur Radio communications. To listen-in on the ham activity, visit https://www.broadcastify.com/listen/coid/1/amateur. Click on the map to choose a state or choose one from the dropdown menu.
