Strong here from 0200 s/on, S9+20, some fades, but not that bad.
Got the feet up, and just enjoying it.
Great sig till "Rock & Roll Stew" at 0231, then really beginning to tear up badly.

Thanks Wolverine, and Happy Holidays!

Hearing intermittent weak music here.  Anybody confirm?

0007 Def a Xmas song, followed by poss ID which I cud not make out
deep fade or break at 0010, back at 0012.  Hvy pesc QRM de 6900
0018 poss skit w/ OM (Jesus) & XYL, ment "apple juice and milk", "..is there really a place called hell?"
0026 off?

very weak, really tough copy with all the pescadores

Just heard the "Northern Relay Service" ID at 2358, followed by music as noted above

Pretty sure that's the ID I heard at 2259, followed by GFR "Some Kind of Wonderful"
2303 ID as "Thing Man Radio, your number 1 station for thought and reflection". Zombies "She's Not There"
2306 ID, "Believing is easier than thinking", addy as thinkingmanradio@gmail.com, Spinners "Rubber Band Man"
2312 ID, addy, s/off

Weak, but seems to be picking up
SINPO 25232 at best here

Heard here also @0030 to s/off.  Heard at S8-S9.  Very lucky here; just turning the radios on before
taking the dog for her walk!
Just listened to the tape, and it sounds like he was in QSO with Eccentric SW

QSL appreciated

I agree with just about all the comments made above.  I guess I'm just hung up on the claim that this receiver represents a design hit based on bonitistic geometry.  I've slugged through the translation 3 times now looking for any clue as to how this helps to make a better receiver.  Maybe yes, maybe no, whatever; time to let it go.  What does come through is that it is claimed that a low noise figure is obtained by having no active components between the antenna and the ADC, even though the block diagram clearly shows a pair of active mixers.

The bottom line is "Does this rig meet it's claims"?  I sure hope so!  Would really love to see how this technology, whatever it may be, compares in side-by-side tests with other boxes.  That would be the all important litmus test!

Thanks for bringing this up, weaksigs.  Definitely be watching this!

Never even heard a het here in Chicago during the entire Ronin broadcast.  This BC appears to be a re-broadcast of a show I heard 15Oct11.

However, a station came up on 6925.20AM *0213-0220*, very weak, w/ C&W or Buffet music; really hard to tell.  No ID given and it definitely was not playing Doors.

Heard this at S3 in part around 2335 while cooking dinner.  Heard the SSTV, but didn't have any capture on, so thanks guys!

Came back from walking my dog to hear closing anthem, SSTV and s/off at 0114
Good signal!

Wow!!!  I am at a loss to wrap my brain around this so far.  I have read paragraphs of typical Babel translation and I still do not get any idea of WTF happens when you press the "DX Channel" button, which as I see it is the crux of the biscuit, at least from the video.  I mean, the "Bonitistic Geometry" principle is summarized, apparently, as:

----------------------------------------------------------
The bonitistische principle can be summarized in a sentence.

The basic principle of bonitistischen geometry is the movement, which is justified triangular, not swinging us their curvature as notorious Magnetfeldlinien presented and concomitantly still at the same time the gravitation explained, because effects are only deviations from the direction of motion.

Thus now the actually necessary geometrical fourth dimension for a space curvature as magnetic line of flux offered, which shortens and points then the 3D-Strecken out, like it to the Einstein sweep magnification comes and like then also still the gravitation explained and, and, and, and everything else.

Bonitistischen geometry offers now completely different perspectives, if one deliberates oneself then finally Kraft of causal thinking and from quantum theology cannot be missionieren. Thus then bonitistische geometry ends finally therein,
 
    • that there is only one cause (the movement, the space curvature),
    • only one effect (change of the direction of motion)
    • and only one speed.

And thus the universe has an extremely primitive principle, with which a any cause and effect can be described, if the almost unbelievable quantity of the possibilities were not there, which so unbelievably complex the whole makes.
----------------------------------------------------------

How this guy's apparently private theory of all things applies to building a better radio (sans AGC) which can miraculously recover information from noise at the click of a button, you got me hanging.  I suppose Claude Shannon might have some insight if he were still with us.

True, but if it could be made radio-reflective, it would open up a whole new mode of ARO communications.  No longer would they be limited to EME for space comms; now EKE would be a viable alternative.

Here in Chicago,

6925.0 seemed clear 0200 - 0245

6925.0 USB popped up at 0245 and hrd to abt 0330
6925.0 LSB (Turtle Head Radio) popped up at 0300 and is still on and weak at 0345

Gotta go do some 60M; night all

Been listening to static on 6925 since 0200, not a peep, not a het, not even a mouse!
0245 some rock popped up.  Weak.  Seems USB, not AM.  Who?
0300 Hearing Turtle Head Radio on LSB.
Why not?  The more the merrier!!!
