One of my many admirers, no doubt. ;)

I was known for my good audio, but it was mostly Boomer's transmitter(built in limiter/compressor) and day's of work to tailor the audio for the show. Fearless Fred taught me that. Ran it through an EQ and then through Cool Edit Pro to get the bandwidth right for the tx and take the negative peaks out of the audio. By the time I aired a show I'd heard it or 15-20 times. It's why I relayed other op's, after all that work I was bored with what I was going to air that night. BTW, all my show's were one off's. I never repeated any of them.

Knowing what your transmitter can handle is the key to good audio, IMO. It's my main complaint about SSB, the bandwidth is too narrow. You can't get good hi-fi audio,10 plus khz. wide, out of it. Wolverine has the best SSB audio I've ever heard, but I bet he's modified his transceiver six way's from Sunday and has a method to tweak his audio for it. It's a lot of work to get it right.

Leave this here or move it, Shortwave. Most of it is common sense, but if it can help someone, put it where it can be seen.

I agree that Stan Sideband is terrible for music, I would only use it if I had a transmitter like Mix Radio International or Wolverine Radio (theirs sound excellent).

I am not a moderator in this part of the forum, it is up to someone else.

Shortwave Broadcast / WBCQ 3265v AM 0101 UTC 31 DEC 2022
« on: December 31, 2022, 0525 UTC »
Exact frequency was 3265.13 kHz at tune in, drifted up to 3265.18 kHz by 0129 UTC. S7 (but lots of static) with the Raleigh, NC KiwiSDR.

0101 UTC-WBCQ ID
0101 UTC-Classical music (familiar but neither I nor Shazam can recall the title)
0102 UTC-Beginning of the "New Years Eve New Years Eve Show", hosted by two OMs, difficult to copy
0133 UTC-Program still going

0340 UTC-GONE

EiBi shows this schedule:

3265          0000-2400       USA Brother Stair            E   NAm
3265          0100-0200 Sa    USA WBCQ The Planet          E   NAm

The part showing Brother Stair was just added recently and I am doubtful of its accuracy. Since the end of the program listed for Saturday (Friday local time) only I have not heard anything on the frequency.

Hey Pigmeat, the guy in USB was talking to you as well. Below is my transcription of what he said:

"Piiigmeeat"

"There's that squeal again son"

"There's something seriously wrong in your audio chain"

"Pigmeat, would you set this guy straight dammit"

Recording so you can listen for yourself: https://archive.org/details/unid-pelee-island-broadcasting-system-6925.1-list.-6925-usb-am-0037-utc-31-dec-2022

Exact frequency is 6949.59 kHz. S7 with the KFS Omni KiwiSDR.

0048 UTC-Religious program (more like Pseudoscience than a regular religious program)
0114 UTC-OM “We interrupt this important message with an even more important one, the station ID, Solar Centric”, talking about enjoying your solstice and new year, my name is Dr. Evan Alexander
0115 UTC-Back to the program
0135 UTC-Signal now very weak

0143 UTC-Some kind of jingle
0143 UTC-“This is an emergency broadcast. The unpleasant noise you are about to hear is not a mistake. Please do not turn off your radio, instead turn it up as high as it can go”
0144 UTC-OM wishing everyone a happy Friday, using a 1000 watt homebrew transmitter in the Pacific Ocean, this is Solar Centric signing off

Certainly an unusual program! Nice to hear another new station, especially one that seems to be further west than most.
