The Lo-Fi Longwave is a headwear item wearable by all classes. It is an off-white hardhat with a miniature radio tower mounted on top and the KritzKast logo printed on the front.
The hat is awarded to players for being in the Kritzkast Steam Group prior to the June 12th cast and for getting at least 4 out of 5 right on the KritzKast quiz answered correctly. Players who do not complete the quiz on their first try are given another try 24 hours later, and again after that.

Trivia
- The hat's description is a tagline for Template:W.
- In radio terminology, Template:W refers to parts of radio spectrum with relatively long wavelengths.
- Lo-Fi, or Template:W, is a term which describes an audio recording with technical flaws, such as distortion, hum, or background noise.
- According to KritzKast episode 121, the radio tower was mounted directly to the classes' heads during the hat's development. It was modified by Valve to use the same hardhat as the Aperture Labs Hard Hat.
