View Full Version : BBC & DW on 1296 kHz from Orfordness
Good results this morning except a few dropouts, EPG and Journaline working OK.
Simone
A few dropouts last night and this morning (CS or MDI feed problems?).
Sorry to see this transmission already ended at 2100 tonight to be replaced by 5875 kHz, HF never was as reliable as 1296 kHz here and audio quality on MF was much better.
:(
Simone
Good conditons tonight on MF (3* MDI problem), almost no audio decoding currently on 5875 kHz :(
Simone
Good results last night and this morning (marked the MDI problems last night in the attachment)
Some dropouts, mostly due to datastream problems.
Simone
Hi,
Despite a clear channel this high bitrate signal from BBC & DW did not give a good signal. Time: 05:21 - 05:51 UTC, this resulted in a CDA of just 34%. Back to SW :)

After all the trouble last night, quite good results this morning.

26 kbps is too high in the evening on mediumwave:
60 Min. Log
My location is not in target area. Therefore no good reception from Orfordness-tx on 1296 KHz. Slow deep fading and strong Co-Channel AM from Spain daily here. Good conditions this evening, quiet atmosphere but only 95% decoded Audio today .
A few dropouts last night and this morning.

Hi,
A fairly "shaky" reception of DW_BBC; i.e. sometimes good - sometimes bad.
In total a CDA of 75% for 64 minutes: 17:45-18:49 UTC.
The Journaline works just fine now. These are some of the txt msg:
