Been running a free shortwave reference site (ShortwaveHQ) as a hobby project — figured I'd share something here rather than just drop a link, since this crowd would probably have opinions worth hearing.
Two things I built that might actually be useful to active listeners here:
Data's sourced from EIBI + cross-checked against HFCC where possible, and I flag which entries are independently verified vs. just as-reported. Trying to keep it honest about what's solid data vs. what isn't.
Would genuinely like feedback from people who actually DX regularly — what's missing, what's wrong, what would make the Reception Log worth using. Not trying to sell anything, just trying to make the schedule data better with more eyes on it.
hqshortwaveradio.com if anyone wants to poke at it.

Two things I built that might actually be useful to active listeners here:
- Reception Log — a community catch log. Anyone can submit a SINPO report on what they're hearing right now, no account needed. Idea is to build a real, crowd-sourced "who's hearing what, from where" picture over time instead of relying on one static schedule.
- Schedule-change tracker — pulls the daily EIBI feed and diffs it against the previous day, so station adds/drops/frequency moves show up as an actual dated log instead of you having to notice it yourself.
