View Full Version : TDF on 3965 kHz Issoudun/ RFI
Not too bad in the first hour, problems with interference later.
Simone
Seems there was no transmission the past two nights.
Simone
Good to see the signal was back yesterday, not bad in the first hour of my log last night, problems with interference later.
Simone
Results from last night, no signal received the night before until 0500 AM.
Simone
Results improved again last night.

BBC WS 10 kHz down in DRM is very strong making reception difficult:
Still suffering from jet-lag, so my log was taken a little bit earlier. ;)
But the reception was not so good anyway. Only 77% decoded audio in this 65 minutes long log.
Pretty good results until interference started at 0115, also good after 0230 for one hour.

Unattended overnight log, not quite as good as Simone's result:

When I leave the dead zone of Skelton on 3955 kHz there is no chance of reception until the BBC shuts down.
Results from last night, best part from 0300- 0430.
Simone
A 10 1/2 hours log. The best part was between 2320 - 0455 UTC with 96% CDA. Between 5 and 6 UTC there was virtually nothing receieved.

Unattended log:
Hi all,
this recording was done via a Perseus server in South East Germany. The antenna was a 250 m long beverage. Some interruption were caused by the not always continuous datastream over internet.
Bernd, DF9RB
Not too bad during two hours when BBC WS is in the adjacent channel with a much stronger signal than RFI.

Not bad in the beginning until interference started at 0120 as usual, signal disappeared completely at 0400.
Simone
Problems with interference again last night.
Simone
Better conditions last night, great results until interference started at 0122, overall better than the past nights.

Acceptable until 09 UTC:
Very unstable here, so I switched over to REE instead.
Better results last night, except the usual hour with interference.
Simone
Quite good results in the first hour of my log last night.
Simone
The first hour was quite good again last night, also better towards the end of my log.

Fading out slowly:
First 3/4 hour was good, then something fired up and destroyed the reception to a large extent.
Rather good from 0300- 0430, then signal almost disappeared.

After 17:00 UTC AM ontop.
It looks like the reception here is better if you compare this seven and a half hours long log from last night with Simone's from the 10th March.
Conditions have improved here too, better results last night.
Simone
Seems like 0820 UTC marks the end of reliable reception here at this time of the year.

Not bad at 1kW level:
Results from last night, seems that co-channel interference at 0115- 0230 is not there in A11.

Fades out after 07 UTC:
No interference problems as during the winter schedule, but overall not so good these days.
Simone
Results improved from 0245 last night.
Simone
Results improved in the early morning, almost perfect from 0230.

Reception after BBC on 3955 kHz switched off:
Quite good results last night, my best results in weeks.
Simone
Not too bad from 0150 last night.
Simone
No signal received the past two nights.
Simone
Hi Simone and all,
TX Problems (switch down) related to high temperature in Issoudun (39)C yesterday afternoon.
Jacques
Not so good these days, best time was 0100- 0300.
Simone
Not so good these days, best time was 0100- 0300.
Simone
Summer conditions?
Jacques :confused:
Bonjour Jacques,
Summer conditions?
Jacques :confused:
yes, I guess I can not expect more with summer conditions here.
Regards,

The days are getting shorter, the log is getting better. :)
Not really good last night but much better than the previous nights, at least until 02:30.

Still too much static noise in the morning:
Seems there were no transmissions the past two nights!?
Simone
An overnight log, but I cut the plot short as there was virtually nothing worth mentioning between 2340-0400.
FritzWue

In all the total readability was better than the log suggests.
For me the audio quality is about the acceptable DRM minimum.
No decoding from TDF last night as Dream locked on the signal from Vesti FM on 3970 kHz.
Simone
FritzWue
30-10-2011, 17:27
Decoding was best on my 31m quad antenna. :confused:
Starting 18:00 UTC AM ontop, no chance. :(

Afternoon reception result, russian AM starting ontop at 17:00 UTC:
Typical results these days (nights), not too bad in the first hour, then strong AM co-channel interference from 0120- 0230, later interference from the adjacent channel above.
Simone
Thanks Simone,
ISS 1kW Transmitter still going well... Not bad without QRM?

Some reception possible in the morning after BBC Skelton on 3955 kHz shuts down:

Just when reception was getting better Teheran started in AM on frequency in russian.
Seems it does not get better than this, always periods with strong AM interference.
Simone

14-01-2012, 16:03
99.5% CDA with vertical antenna until Teheran blocked the frequency with AM.
Very good, Fritz!

Test in the morning with the sun in the sky: :)
Starterd not too bad in the first hour, then again the typical interferences.

A thunderstorm over Greece was strong here, short after 17 UTC AM ontop.
FritzWue
25-02-2012, 18:13
Too much interference after 18:00 UTC, DReaM finally crashed.
Too much Fading caused dropouts all the time.
