Best range recorded

Range by direction

Farthest position heard in each 5° slice, by altitude band. The dashed line is readsb's own 24-hour outline.

Where the traffic is

Position count by direction and distance.

Daily positions and aircraft

Stacked bars are positions by source; the line is unique aircraft. Markers show changes to the station.

Max range by quadrant

Daily farthest position to the north, east, south and west.

Signal vs distance

Average RSSI by distance (last 7 days). A drop after a change means added loss.

Last 72 hours

Positions per hour by source, and readsb messages per hour.

ACARS & VDL2 per hour

Decoded airband data-link messages per hour (bars) and average signal level (lines), last 72 hours.

Airband signal level by day

Average message signal level. This is traffic-independent, so it is the fair before/after test for splitters and antennas.

Messages by frequency

Last 7 days.

Top airlines

Messages by airline (from the flight number), last 7 days.

Message types

Most common ACARS labels, last 7 days.

Signal level distribution

How many messages arrived at each signal level, last 7 days.

Noise floor by band

Median signal level (dBm) the KiwiSDR measures each hour across each range (MHz). Lower is quieter.

SNR by band

The Kiwi's hourly signal-to-noise estimate (dB) per range (MHz). Higher means more signals above the noise.

Listeners

Average and peak KiwiSDR users per hour (8 channels).

What listeners tune to

Listener time by band, last 7 days.

Geomagnetic activity

Planetary Kp index (3-hour). 5 or more is a storm, and HF gets noisy or goes quiet.

Solar flux

Daily 10.7 cm solar flux (NOAA, noon reading). Higher flux generally opens the upper HF bands.

Temperature & dew point

Outdoor temperature and dew point (°F), with relative humidity on the right axis.

Wind

Average speed and peak gust (mph). Dots show the direction the wind is coming from.

Wind rose

Time the wind blew from each direction, by speed. Calm minutes are left out.

Pressure

Sea-level barometric pressure (inHg).

Solar & UV

Solar radiation (W/m²) and UV index.

Daily highs, lows and rain

Each day's temperature range and rain total, last 90 days.

At the node

Nodes

Meshtastic nodes heard on 915 MHz LongFast, newest first. Hops 0 means heard directly; SNR is as received here. Locations are rounded to about 2 km.

Traffic

Packets per hour, all and heard directly, with the average SNR of direct packets.

Where nodes are

Direction and distance (km) of nodes that share a position, by hops away.

Packet types

What the mesh is carrying, last 7 days. Message text is never stored.

Node sensors

Temperature (°F) and humidity from the station node's environment sensor.

Channel utilization

How busy 915 MHz is as the station node hears it (%), and its own transmit airtime.
