Got some dance thumpage about S9 here. Carrier about 75 Hz low FWIW. Getting some peskie action on LSB.

0101z Prodigy 'Smack My Bitch Up'
0137z Getting some deep fades, still there though.
~0145z QRT.

General Radio Discussion / Re: Fabulous Automated Networked Confirmation Organizer
« on: April 01, 2017, 2148 UTC »P.S. Does FANCO support C-QUAM? Sure, USB is the manliest of modes, but C-QUAM is glorious.
Not only does it support C-QUAM, it can decode the broadcast in full stereo, even if it is transmitted in mono.

General Radio Discussion / Re: Decoding HDTV audio
« on: March 25, 2017, 1840 UTC »
The problem with all the HDTV systems I know of is that the audio is encapsulated in a transport stream, in the case of 8VSB (US HDTV) running at close to 20 Mbps. You have to receive the entire bitstream, and demux the content you want, and at that point, you might as well watch the video PID too.
The other thing to keep in mind is there are very few lowband VHF TV stations. Most migrated to UHF and a few on highband VHF. Lowband has trouble with impulse noise which can cause breakup/tiling.
