ON AIRChannel 73 · broadcasting now

The first live channel for your ham radio.

No radio. No computer to run. Type in your callsign, and your contacts start broadcasting — live, on the biggest screen in the shack.

HAM TV turns any Roku or Amazon Fire TV into an always-on channel for your station: contacts as they happen, a live world map, propagation, grey line, satellites and DX spots. Nothing to operate, nothing to plug in.

HAM TV 2.0 on a TV: your stats, contact map and recent contacts

Special bulletin

HAM TV 2.0 is on the air.

Every screen has been rebuilt, and three new map screens join the rotation. Here’s what your TV needs to tune in.

Roku Update your Roku first

HAM TV 2.0 needs Roku OS 15.1.4 or newer. On your Roku go to Settings › System › Software update › Check now, let it install, then open HAM TV.

Store says “not available on this device”? Your Roku software is older than 15.1.4. Run the update above, then search again.

Fire TV Nothing to do

The Fire TV app updates itself. Open HAM TV and you’re watching 2.0, with no download and no reinstall.

Still seeing the old look? Close the app and open it again.

No radio. No computer.
