Default on-line receivers for transmitter testing in USA?

I recently came across some literature suggesting on-line Ham receiving
stations available for transmitter testing. In other words, I send out a
signal on one of the Ham bands and on one of the on-line frequencies, and
then either hear my signal immediately on-line or a short time afterwards.
Are there frequencies set up on-line and on the Ham bands for such testing?
What are the links & frequencies?

Thanks,
Ted

They're general coverage receivers out there that you can tune to any
frequency that is within their capabilities.
Google "online receivers" or such.

I think that this is the sort of thing you are looking for. A few of the
receiving sites are in the USA.

Thanks, guys, I'll look into those. Just so you know, I'm looking for a
live or nearly live on-line receiver in the 20 meter band, USB. I have a
new rig I'll be trying out soon and I'd like to hear what it sounds like.
73, Ted

Appreciate the response from all here, gentlemen. In fact, the very concept
of a software receiver has me intrigued to try setting up my own on the PC.
However, as I look at some of the ones people are using at the websdr.org
link, I find most are out of stock. Of course, Winradio has been around for
years, but a much higher price tag. Any info on getting a "Softrock" or
similar receiver would be welcome. Thanks, Ted
