Announcer heard weak. Signal looks big but audio is tough to pull out. Sounds like a narrative. Using DSB is best to hear both sides of signal. Fading in and out.

0205 UTC hard rock song heard using USB. Maybe Led Zeppelin?

Sounds like 2 stations drifting in and out. The religious broadcast is the strongest of the two. The other station sounds like a commercial station.

Faint music playing, possibly rap song. Best heard with SAM or DSB.

Heard KIPM type talk with music in the background. DSB got it best with a wide signal. Test maybe?

Station is mostly barely heard, but will propagate fairly loud over the noise for a few seconds.

Noisy conditions. Fair signal.

Born to be Wild

Thanks for the show.

0230U signal has improved. Real nice! Playing Steve Miller Band tune.

Never ID'ed the station as the preamp was going bad and I was very distracted trying to figure it out. Sorry to miss it. Maybe an earlier Captain Morgan SW show?

SDR - Software Defined Radio / Linrad on MacOS?

« on: July 13, 2014, 0431 UTC »

Has anybody compiled the code and got it to run for a Perseus. I got through the steps until I needed run the compiler (I think). Linrad looks pretty good. I'm using 10.6.8.

Thanks.

Sounds like old time radio comedy routine. Was weak but is beginning to fade in loud at times.

Had a very weak carrier. Could dig out music faintly. Signal gone a few minutes later. Station test or end of a show?
