are there any particular freqs i should look at to test AM stereo decoding programmes?

nice one Dave, i was called away before i could finish the files but Ireland was a surprise i missed this opening i think but i did record the 16/6/17 spectacular, i'll share band II files when i can get at them i've uploaded an OIRT file on here i think but it just sounds like normal e skip at that...

maybe we can find someone in a big city like NY who will do us an sdr recording of FM and/or 1710 am
i'd also quite like to experiment with decoding FM subcarrier audio


years ago someone made me a recording of 6mhz US pirates which was interesting, sadly i don't still have it

I have an overnighter planned for 26th, cross your fingers

good info, tnx BP obviously the "stealing listeners" thing is a lie , i'm glad we don't have that rule over here (as far as i know) my idea of hell would be a totally sterile band with no surprises, i love going to london and tuning the pirates of course i sympathise with knob twiddler and his lack ...

Do ofcock work purely on complaints or do they cruise around all day df'ing pirates?

In the states the legal stations do the monitoring then the contact the FCC and say "station X is stealing our listeners"

i'd be really annoyed if you got Turkey our of season
the contract you signed with the ionosphere said only auroral e's in January!

january 3rd? is the date correct?

Thanks, despite the instructions saying go as high as you can up the band for best swr on such a short aerial the unit is much happier lower down. Plus as you say I hadn't sufficiently considered the coverage of most radios I've settled on 1440 until the planned Danish station appears. Then I'll hop...

I set up in the greenhouse with tuneable loop and sangaen ATS 505 (tecsun was still charging) Last night and heard 1521 CRI 1755-ish utc with the usual cc Mx prior to toth. TWN 1098 1833ut occasional peaks over pres. Slovakia minority SVC I didn't expect the Coventry CR on 1521 to be as much of a pr...

i'll try the garden, good idea

agreed, i wonder how much of the music the station themselves actually produces since i can't imagine all these Iranian versions of top 40 songs were produced in the country Farda & Sawa have a really distinctive sound, I identified sawa just from some weak music on one of Walt Salimanovs dx recordi...

Just listen to the first "performance" in last night's edition (via BBC listen again) :lol: Can you ever imagine thinking ,oh I fancy listening to that? Maybe if you had some unwanted guests... It consists of wierd vocalisations, "my grandparents didn't have chickens and they didn't lay eggs" Last w...
