Over 400 websites allow you to listen to ham radio online. There are two main "flavors" of technology offering this free service.

WebSDR user interfaceWebSDR UI
VS
OpenWebRX user interfaceOpenWebRX UI

WebSDR with its rudimentary user interface (UI) allows over a hundred listeners simultaneously. This means that their receiver-server can almost always accommodate an additional listener.

OpenWebRX has a more pleasant-looking user interface. But it allows only up to a maximum of 4 listeners simultaneously. This means that some sites are often full of listeners. You can then be patient and wait for an opening . . . or simply try another site.
Maybe try reception in different parts of the world, or even to show what Ham radio is all about to someone new.... This website means that you have a ham receiver anywhere you have an internet computer.

Did you try it?
