SDR - Software Defined Radio / Genesis G59

« on: March 10, 2013, 2307 UTC »

Cruising Sparky's ham blog, I found this. The Genesis G59, which hails from Australia. It's a transceiver, and a kit, at a pretty reasonable price.

I definitely am hearing this and it's very loud and annoying all throughout the 6900 KHz range and quite possibly beyond. It sounds like helicopter rotors beating the air.

In fact, I was listening to Powerliner on 6955 KHz and this stuff showed up, killing my reception. It's about S8 on 6955 at 2208 UTC.

Noted a weak carrier here with some music modulation. Popped into Iann's and got a confirmation from Powerliner that this is him. Only an S1 (optimistically) here. I did pull out a Powerliner ID at 2154 UTC and the signal is getting progressively stronger as sun begins to fade for me.

I also heard this, but not make out the whispered ID. It was S1 here.

About S7 here with the preamps on. Not bad. Here's a clip:

I had OFFUTT reading a message for VASE, and then VASE appeared on frequency and asked for a repeat. You can hear a clip here:

Sounds like The Cult at 2148 UTC. Modulation might be a little low.

I have this, too, at 2135 UTC. I can hear country western style music on it. It's maybe S1 or S2.

I believe I heard another example of these comms just now, at 2033 UTC and this time on 6945 KHz USB. Two Russian guys talking quickly to each other and possibly some kind of end-of-transmission (roger) tone. They were on only briefly, and then off.

« on: March 09, 2013, 1949 UTC »

Given that AM/FM receivers can now be implemented with just a single IC and a couple other components, and that these parts are extremely cheap and ubiquitous, I don't really see this happening any time soon either.
