DW Sines 15440 kHz

[DRM-OM]

until sign-off

[Digger]

Hi,

A scheduled virus scan destroyed everything. Here is a log after the scan.
Very good here too.

Terje

[hsseppo]

Hi,

perfect as always,

Seppo

[df8uo]

Strong signal, high average SNR
73, Daniel

[Digger]

Hi,

Good here as usual, too.

Terje

[DRM-OM]

problems with AM interferer (arabic language) on 15435

[dk8cb]

Quite good.

Roland

[Mitsuru Ito]

hi all,
I did not receive 15440 long time.
this evening I could decorde very good as this file.
I changed my loop antenna horizontal to vertical today.

[Digger]

Hi,

In the beginning there seems to be QRM from a carrier on the frequency, at least it looks like that. Otherwise very good reception (as always).

Terje

[Digger]

Hi,

Very good indeed!


Terje

[Digger]

Hi,

Good. I was not present at 1020 UT and don't know what the hick-up could have been.


Terje

[Mitsuru Ito]

hi all,
there was strong signal on 15435KHZ.
signal on 15435KHZ was stoped on 11:57.
After that signal of15440KHZ was strong about S 5 to 9.
But the signal became to weak suddenly about S-2 at 13:20.

[mitajohn]

Hi all,

A weak signal for about 20 mins then faded out for good.

John.

[Digger]

Hi,

Good listening until about 1235 UTC when Ankara switched on a splattery transmitter with saturated modulation on 15.450 MHz :( . The input level for Ankara here is a steady +80 dBuV compared to abut 45-50 dBuV for Sines.

Terje

[Digger]

Hi,

Very good.

Terje

[Sixten]

Hi.

Propagation is back to normal again. Her is execellent recption from DW.

46 min. 99.98% CDA.
Look picture on CIR pulse.

[dk8cb]

Very good.
Reception during the last minute was harmed by a strong co-channel station.

Roland

[FritzWue]

Driving from 45127 Essen to 48712 Gescher via B224, A2, A31.
Strong signal without problems in the vicinity of high voltages lines and under bridges.

[simone]

Hi all,
not what it used to be :(
Simone

[hsseppo]

Hi all,

15440 kHz 209 min. 99.83 % CDA.
I listened today 13810, 15545 and 15440 kHz frequencies at 08:04 - 14:56 UTC. These three frquencies are really working well in Helsinki, decoded audio almost 100% all the time.

73, Seppo

[Digger]

Hi,

Very good this afternoon (as usual).

Terje

[Digger]

Hi,

Very nice reception today too.

Terje

[FritzWue]

Driving from 49219 Glandorf to 48712 Gescher.
Good signal and reception most of the time.

[Digger]

Hi all,

Very good results, but from about 1230 UTC saturated AM splatter from Ankara 10 kHz up caused a decrease in SNR.


Terje

[FritzWue]

Driving from 32545 Bad Oeynhausen to 48712 Gescher via A30, A31:

[Per]

Hi,

91 minutes of this usually good QRG. But today "only" 85 % CDA.
Time: 09:00 - 10:31 UTC.

[carknue]

Mostly good. At the end with thunderstorms in Frankfurt.

[Andreas]

This is the proof DW can broadcast a reliable DRM signal which does not sound like a telephone :D

[carknue]

I'm not quite sure, why I got a lower SNR than usual on this frequency today. But a perfect transmission anyway.

[Digger]

Hi,

I wasn't in so I haven't a clue what happened during half an hour starting around 1235 UT. Otherwise good and stable as usual.

Terje

[Mitsuru Ito]

hi all,
I did not get signal beginning broadcastiong.
But around 14Hrs the signal bame very good condition.

[simone]

Hi all,
a few dropouts today
Simone

[FritzWue]

Driving from near Bad Oeynhausen to 48712 Gescher via A30, A31.
Good signal as always.

[Digger]

Hi,

A short and perfect report, slightly weaker signal today, then went on to "listen" to 9.300 MHz.

Terje

[Digger]

Hi,

Today's (unattended) log shows a jumpy part in the middle, which I cannot explain. Otherwise high SNR.

Terje

[Sixten]

Hi all.

27 min of solid reception from DW .
Strong and stabil.

[DRM-OM]

Long-term observations May 2 to 19
as ZIP-archive (http://www.intervalsignals.org/drm-observations)

[Janucha]

all time - strong and stability

[hsseppo]

Hi all,

I just started to test my new DRM radio comparing it to the old one. The new radio has lower noise level and better second harmonic distortion.

73, Seppo

[FritzWue]

Good signal as always. To the end a carrier starting 5 kHz lower reduced the cda.

[Digger]

Hi,

Tried a few configurations; all very good.

Terje

[Digger]

Hi,

Very good today too, as can be seen from the log.

Terje

[simone]

... and a half hour lunch break later ;)
Simone

[simone]

Don´t know what happened at 1300- 1315, otherwise good results
Simone

[Digger]

Hi,

A couple of hours until sign-off. Earlier today Turkey boomed in +10 kHz and its AM modulation caused problems with the DRM signal. :mad:

Terje

[dk8cb]

An unusually weak signal and interference as well.

Roland

[Mitsuru Ito]

hi all,
I got few audios.

[Digger]

Hi,

Perfect for more than 90 minutes. However, the signal was weaker than usual.

Terje

[mitajohn]

Hi all,

A limited period of good result.

John.

[carknue]

Very good results, as usual on this frequency.

[Digger]

Hi,

80 minutes from about 10 UTC. Very good in Switzerland too.

Terje

[FritzWue]

Driving from Cloppenburg to Osnabrueck on the A1:

[Per]

Hi,

I have to agree with previous posts;
Very good reception, also in Sweden, this afternoon.
Time: 12:28 - 13:46 UTC.
Result: CDA: 100 %.

[Digger]

Hi all,

Much better than 100% will be quite a challenge.... :D

Terje

[Digger]

Very good today, too.

Terje

[Sixten]

Hi all

Log 30min. and 100% CDA . Very good today, I can see DRM propagation is back again .

:)

[Digger]

Hi,


Except for "something" around 1135 UTC that I missed due to work, it was perfect. Was it perhaps a short blackout due to the solar activity at that time?

Terje

[FritzWue]

Driving from Oldenburg to near Papenburg via A28, A31.
Big dropout in the Emstunnel near Leer.

[carknue]

Perfect today.

[dk8cb]

At the moment (13:40 UTC), there is interference from a strong station transmitting 10 kHz below with a programme in Russian.

See screenshot.

Roland

[dk8cb]

And here is my report showing the influence the interfering signal had.

Roland

[Digger]

Just perfect two hours


Terje

[Digger]

180 min log from 1153 UT. Around 1230 UT there was a lot of AM QRM from +10 kHz (Turkey with news in English).

Terje

[Digger]

Two hours perfect reception.

Terje

[Digger]

A shorter log today. Turkey is very strong +10 kHz and keeps yanking at the AGC, causing some trouble here in the early afternoon. But DW still manages to get through without much problems.


Terje

[Digger]

155 minutes of good reception until sign-off.

Terje

[Sixten]

Hi all.

Her is 90 minutes of very good reception . No QRM or QSB. Perfect propagation.

[Sixten]

Hi all.

Her is 55 minutes of very good reception . Only small QSB. Perfect propagation.
:)

[dk8cb]

Reception during the last minute was killed by interference.

Roland

[Sixten]

Hi all.

Quite good. 90min , and 100% CDA.

[Sixten]

Hi all.

Her is 60min. also perfect reciption .

[Sixten]

Hi all.

Her is 55min. 100% CDA, perfect reciption .

:)

[Sixten]

Hi all.

So 60min . log and 99.89% ok Very good propagations now for DRM .

[dk8cb]

Very good, but signal was not that strong as I have seen on this frequency in the past.

Roland

[Per]

Hi!

Nothing else but perfect. 73 minutes at 10.55 - 12:08 UTC.
Result: 99.3 % CDA.
One of many received txt msg: "US-Armee macht Irak-Kriegsdienstverweigerer den Prozess".

[mitajohn]

Hi all,

A perfect result with high SNR until about 13H00, then the signal weakened too much and the result degraded.

John.

[FritzWue]

Perfect here! :D :cool:

[aru]

Hi all,

Good reception today near Venice.

aru

[mitajohn]

Hi all,

A good result with the DE31 loop from a rather weak signal.

John.

[FritzWue]

Very good like always:

[mitajohn]

Hi all,

From a weak signal which hardly reached 35dBuV I got the attached 3 hour log.

John.

[mitajohn]

Hi all,

I took a log for this weak TX but after about 40mins, strong interference started and killed DRM and I stopped the log..

John.

[Digger]

Hi,

Here are the last 20 minutes from today. The very last few minutes were killed completely by an Arabic-speaking (?) station, (Riyadh?) whose carrier was full of spurious or parasitics. Otherwise the reception of 15.440 MHz is perfect here.

Terje

[hsseppo]

Hi,

15440 kHz strong as usual, max SNR 35,5 dB

Seppo

[FritzWue]

Strong signal but no real high snr values:

[FritzWue]

From near Ibbenbueren to Gescher via A30, A31, 100% CDA.
Higher SNR with lower speed on the last kilometer after leaving the autobahn.

[simone]

Good results today.
Simone

[dk8cb]

A very strong signal, perfect reception.

Roland

[mitajohn]

Hi all,

Normaly this station cannot be received here with good results due to strong interference and weak DRM signal. Today the signal reached 50dBuV but the QRM kept from good decoding. Look at the 2nd file the QRM carrier after TX signed off.

John.

[Digger]

Hi,

A quite short log with very large fluctuations in the SNR but perfect audio, except for a deep fade-out around 1303 UT. The signal just disappeared for a short while.

Terje

[Digger]

Hi,

Another 2 hours plus with very good results. One dropout was caused by an old DOS application, which was running for 5 minutes.


Terje

[mitajohn]

Hi all,

This is a rare very good result on this frequency received in my area.

John.

[Digger]

Hi,

Turkey caused a lot of dropouts at the end of the log, so I quit. :mad:

Terje

[mitajohn]

Hi all,

A rather good result for about 90mins.

John.

[mitajohn]

Hi all,

After 1315 the results got much better.

John.

[FritzWue]

Essen University-B224-A2-A31-Gescher.
Strange dropouts at the end, no reason found.

[mitajohn]

Hi all,

A very good result to day. The signal hardly reached 40~50 dBuV, most of the time was below 36 dBuV.

John.

[simone]

I could receive signals from Sines on 15440 kHz and 13810 kHz during the past days in Seoul/ Korea, quite good outside, but too much local noise indoors :mad:
Simone

[Digger]

Hi,

An almost perfect one and a half hours with the FR-101.

Terje

[Digger]

Hi,

Here is a three hour long log taken simultaneously with the Yaesu FRG 7700 and the Yaesu FR-101 (using the same antenna for both receivers). There was one TX break, which is unusual.

Terje

[Digger]

Hi,

Another three hour log using two receivers with separate antennas. A few audio dropouts, otherwise fine reception.

Terje


Hi again,

Here is another log from the afternoon with the same receivers, but with the antennas reversed.

Terje

[aru]

Perfect!

aru
Venice, Italy

[mitajohn]

Hi all,

After 1140 the result got from bad to very bad.

John.

[Sixten]

Hi all.

Log today from 15440 Perfect. CDA 99.99% !!!! From 78min.

:)

[mitajohn]

Hi all,

An unattended log and I cannot explain the big gap.

John.

[carknue]

Good to see (and hear) that DW uses higer bitrates again. No problem for signals from Sines. Very good sound quality.

[Per]

Hi,

Not as good as in the summer months, but still a 95 % CDA for 77 minutes.
Time: 12:12 - 13:29 UTC.

[mitajohn]

Hi all,

A weak but rather stable signal gave almost a similar result as on 13810 kHz.

[FritzWue]

Hille near Minden-Bohmte-Bramsche-A1-A30-Ibbenbueren
very good!

[mitajohn]

Hi all,

Here is an unattended log. Except for the 2 dropouts the rest was nearly excellent.

[Digger]

Hi,

A perfect last hour.

[Sixten]

Hi all.

Her is short log from this freq. 48min. Perfect.
:)

[CT4RK]

Hi all
From 25-11-06, this QRG, will be out of air from 9:00 to 12:00 UTC. During this time you can tune DW Sines on 15725 Khz, and 13810KHz.

[mitajohn]

Hi all,

A very good result for about one hour.

[zfyoung]

A casual receiving report.Not much to listen to.

[Digger]

A half hour log with a perfect result.

[Digger]

109 minutes unattended, straight line, 100%. Perfect. Sines. ;)

[mitajohn]

Hi all,

A very good result for about 45 mins then interference started and I stopped the log.

[Digger]

This is a Dream timer-started, mostly unattended, 116 minutes long log. Just when I came back in after a I noticed that the radio was silent, and a quick glance on the S-Meter made sense: The signal was down to S5, which corresponds to about 23 dBuV into the antenna socket. The conditions picked up again later.

[mitajohn]

Hi all,

Except of a few dropouts due to fading the rest was a very good result.

Merry Christmas to everybody.

[Digger]

Perfect until 1300 UTC, when the signal strength rapidly weakened. At the end of the log was the signal down to 15-20 dBuV. Bad propagation? Now at 14 UTC is 13 MHz much stronger.

[Digger]

Very good today, except for a weak signal for a while around 1340 UTC.

[Digger]

Weak signal in the beginning, or rather quite a lot of Fading. Later it got much better and the SNR peaked over 37 dB. Enclosed is the 1 1/2 hour long log.

[Sixten]

Hi all.

Perfect propagation on this band also,log her 90min.
:)

[CT4RK]

Hi all
Thanks very much for your pacience in recording and sending to the forum all reports, on this and other QRGs. An happy new 2007 for all of you and family. He hope to continue with your aid.
Best regards from all us in Sines.

[df9rb]

Hello all,

best mobile signal! Reception even in the new 500 m long tunnel in the Pilsen area.

Bernd, DF9RB

[Digger]

Stable reception for about 80 minutes in the afternoon.

[Digger]

No idea what happened in the middle of the log, as we were taking a walk in the mild winter (?) weather at that time.

[Digger]

Very short log, but very good.

[Digger]

A sudden drop in the input signal level of >40 dB around 1340 UTC caused some audio dropouts.

[Digger]

Towards the very end of the transmission the sinal strength decreased rapidly causing some drop-outs.

[carknue]

Perfect reception.

[carknue]

Just tried the DWT after a long time. It works perfectly wit new PC. Parallel logging of different programmes with AOR on same PC works very well also.

[mitajohn]

Hi all,

My last report on this frequency was in Dec. 2006. Today the signal was > 35 dBuV so I run the attached log. Until 13:00 the results were very good then a strong signal appeared on the adjacent channel and turn the results to bad ones.

[FritzWue]

Holdorf-A1-Glandorf
(near Osnabrueck)

[Digger]

A short, but perfect log.

[Digger]

A little over 45 minutes of perfect reception

[mitajohn]

Hi all,

A good result with bad moments...

[FritzWue]

Bochum-A43-A2-A31-Gescher

[Digger]

A short but perfect log until shutdown.

[Per]

Hi,
Just a short 8 minutes of listening, before the transmitter went off the air.
The 9620 transmission, could never match the super signal on this QRG!

[CT4RK]

Hi all DRMs

From today DW will change this QRG by 13660KHz.
I have no more information if it is only for any test propose or if is definitive.

best regrads from Sines
