Receiving Transmission is the second and final album released by Australian punk rock band One Dollar Short in 2004. It was produced by Phil McKellar, who has produced albums for bands such as Grinspoon and Frenzal Rhomb, and was marketed and distributed by Festival Mushroom Records.

Contents

The release featured a bonus CD that contains B-Sides from One Dollar Short's 10 Years single, Press and Hold EP, Keepsake single, Board Game single and Is This the Part single.

While their debut album Eight Days Away was a top ten success, Receiving Transmission failed to reach the ARIAnet Top 40, and the band has since disappeared from view, claiming to be on indefinite hiatus.
