Skywaves DX Forum

Thanks, but just check your link pse

Looks good - what's the battery life like, Peter? The big benefit of DAB+ is it shows the radio has a newer chipset with considerably reduced power consumption. IMO there's no other reason to buy a DAB+ radio until there's any stations worth listening to

My sympathy to you and your mother, Tim. Please let us know when the funeral has been arranged.

Tx has ceased this afternoon but will return with music px in a couple of weeks, probably with slow carrier frequency modulation to assist weak-signal identification.

@KT, that is excellent reception for a city location! Is that really an 8Hz beat, or is it an artefact of the recording?

Welcome Brieuc, I hope you will soon get some good winter tropospheric signals. Whichever receiver you use, try to put up an outdoor antenna. A simple dipole mounted horizontally on a short pole will bring in so much more that a telescopic whip inside the house.

Good dx - Julian

Thanks, I get it now. For a moment I thought it was something personal

What's that, John?

The LF enthusiast amateurs have picked up the challenge to detect this 10W tx, using the full range of techniques for weak-signal detection. The DLs had no problem, then at night the Gs, GMs and EIs saw it, then by gray-line someone in Virginia, then a PP (Brazil) who could see the 1sec pulses on a ...

yes, it's best not to give too many details on social media if you are going to break the law! Here, the police recently arrested someone who had posted on FaceBook with videos of him riding a motorcycle at about 250kph

From rsgb_lf_group: "After the sad demise of all LW and MW broadcasts in Germany, a handful of pioneers came up who are operating legal low-powered medium wave stations in the context of a radio museum or for educational purposes. One of them is Ralph (DL2NDO, one of the participants in the legendar...

Same CF3F + announcement on 92.0 here

Does that mean that Llanddona is to have 2 R Wales?

I have been listening to R Wales since Janice Long got her evening show. In the car 94.8 and 95.3 are about equal

Started as a RSL, Radio Newquay now has a Community Radio licence and started scheduled broadcasts on Sunday 16 September

R. Reverb is qrt on 97.2, I know they are now on DAB

York community station YO1 started official broadcasts on Monday 27th August on 102.8MHz
I'll not hear that here with a local CR co-channel

Nice find, do you apply spectral analysis to all your CDs?
When they QSY'd to 24.8 that would take the signal above the Nyquist filter frequency for CDs

I caught just a bit of this while driving at about 18:30z, seemed to be mostly Hungarian language, there was sport on 88.2 + 88.5, any quiet channel had some up to 93.4 which was as far as I got. 87.6 had "Budapest" in the speech.

The only RDS I saw was BLANIK on 87.8 but I've no idea what that was

Chesterton Fen (1197) and Greenside Scalp (Dundee) (1242) are also reported off now
I guess the channels to watch are 1197, 1233, 1242 and 1260
