Devo "Praying Hands," "Shrivel Up," & "Strange Pursuit" Static crashes, but pretty nice signal here. Off with no IDs. Maybe a homebrew transmitter test? If so, the audio sounded great here.

Poor here, guess it must be RFW, but too weak to ID so far

SDR - Software Defined Radio / Re: SDR-IQ Alternative?

« on: February 01, 2014, 2306 UTC »

Thanks for the responses. BDM: I did notice that its range ends at 850. That's probably OK for me--at least pirates are currently on 1710 and not 530 kHz. CS: Is that a good or bad thing if it's a Soft Rock variant? I've been trying to evaluate what I'd need/best use. I had originally thought that I should pay more for a really good SDR--something that I could regularly record the European band range with and maybe be equivalent to an NRD-535, but lately I've been thinking maybe I should just go more into the Afredi/RF Space range and use it to supplement my analog receivers. As you can see, I'm not exactly an impulse buyer...

Has anyone used the Cross Country Wireless SDR-4+? I think it also looks interesting:

Good signal strength here, but there's some distortion on the signal, like a component of the audio is kind of growling along  with the part that sounds cleaner. Roy Orbison version of "Pretty Woman"

Pretty good sig, with Metallica "One" at 2014. Sounds like it's distorting on peaks. Thanks for the show!

Excellent signal with long interview with Jay from the lobby at the Winterfest. JB pretty much just letting Jay talk at length about whatever he felt like talking about. Nice to hear JB again
