1805 non stop music
TX test (see below)

signal S8+- on the SDR in SW England

Testing a new DDS oscillator in the TX. Seems to be working well so far. :) :) :)

1748 SP language USB QRM.
1753 increased power
1801 S7 @ Bjargtangar, Iceland KiwiSDR
Carrier seen but no discernable audio at W1NT and other ECNa SDRs

Brian who is it? A ID will be good! :)

No ID as it's just a test transmission. It's the FRSH transmitter.

Signal S9+ in Brittany NW France, "the way it is" ...

Brian, does the transmitter owner want reports?

Brian, does the transmitter owner want reports?
No, thanks. There will be more tests over the next couple of days as some adjustments need to be made to the transmitter. No reports necessary but all reports here will be read.

Hi Brian, transmitter frequency seems to be 5800.02 khz at 1830 UTC

1839 Looks like 5800.23 on two different Weston KiwiSDRs
-
1830 UTC song with stop whats that sound in it
1834 UTC song "You're moving out today"
1837 UTC song "We've only just begun"
1840 UTC song "My best friends girl"
1844 UTC song "Give me just a little more time"
SINPO via NW Ireland is a 5/5/5/5/5, Using shazam to ID songs.

Brian, reports to FRSH?
If you want to.

Both misaligned. Don't trust the Kiwi SDRs.
Pity, as most of them can use the frequency standard from the GPS.

That sounds about right. It is possible to get it closer on frequency. I'll look at that later.

I think it is about .23 off frequency. I can adjust this in the TX. I'm still getting the feel of the DDS.
Signal on uTwente now reads 5800.005.
Happy with that.
Edited post to correct frequency.

I'm just checking my RX on Taldom 4996.00000000
i just read 4995.99 at zero beat (so I add 0.01 when doing the best reports)
now reading 5800.00 (I have to add 0.01)
I just checked with the Twente SDR in SAM mode : 5800,0047 (to 0049 at times)

Hi Ray. Can you give me an accurate check of 5800 on your receiver?
-
Frequency :
I read 5800.00 on my RX (no more figures here, I read at the next 10 Hz)
Usually, this is 0.01 low or so, even less than that.
Every time I can check with the Twente SDR, I am as close as I can read.
If you want the better readings, look at the Twente SDR in SAM mode.
Just sometimes, the Twente SDR can't hear weak stations.

Thanks Ray.
