Quite good results, apart from a half hour period with interference from the adjacent chanel above starting at 1610, no problems as on 9470 kHz earlier today, signals from Norway and Rampisham good synchronized for my location when switching between 7465 kHz and 7320 kHz.

...signals from Norway and Rampisham good synchronized for my location when switching between 7465 kHz and 7320 kHz.


I think you got it wrong here. There was a delay of more than 2 minutes between both audio signals. It is even worse today with a delay of more than 3 minutes between real time and audio from Kvitsoy (on 9470 kHz). Each one of the regularly occuring breaks seems to add a little more delay.

Roland

18-08-2006, 18:30

@ Roland: During the past days whenever I tried transmissions from Rampisham and Kvitsoy always appeared to be sychronized when switching between the frequencies, see attachment showing about switching 10 times without a sync loss, only short dropouts.

as you may have spotted, BBC World Service will be broadcasting the Last Night of the Proms on DRM this year. The live broadcast is on MF only, but there will be a 1 hour recorded highlights programme on HF on Sunday Morning (10th Sept) at 08:06 UT.

Good reception with very slight interference which caused the ripple that can be seen in the log.

Despite my antenna operating near its resonance on this frequency, the signal from Rampisham was weaker than the one from Kvitsoy on 9470 kHz but it didn't show the interruptions of the latter.

Also, 7320 kHz carried both services.

25-10-2006, 16:17
Hi James,
some first results, signal from the other site is about 10dB weaker than from Rampisham, so local noise caused a drop in SNR in the first log. Meanwhile interference from the adjacent channel above is causing big problems.
Simone

Hi James,
here my results for the rest of the transmission today, from 1500 there was some AM interference (co-channel and from the adjacent channel above), but interference was not worse than the past days. Results however were a lot worse with the weaker DRM signal today, I also tried different antennas, using an amplifier etc. but no improvement whatever I used.
I also attach a log from this morning for comparison with results tomorrow morning.

Hi James and all,

Today was "BBC Day". As I couldn't resist to make a switch to check whether RNZ was coming in 175 kHz lower, there are two logs: The first one from 0600-1210 UTC and the second one from 1211-1715 UTC. I switched off at 1715, as it was impossible to hear BBC despite a very strong RF signal.

Log 1 starting at 0600 UTC:
0602 starting up with about +48 dBuV
0608 the decoded audio became "chopped"
0610 audio suddenly much improved
0630 I switched over to SLOW AGC. RF Signal about +60 dBuV
0830 - 0845 decoded audio gone completely
0932 there were 2 audio dropouts
1015 - 1030 decoded audio gone completely. RF Signal about +48 dBuV
1202 there was one audio dropout

Log 2 starting at 1211 UTC:
1259 TX Break. After the break the signal decreased about 10 dB.
1402 there was a break and no DRM stream.
1405 the RF Signal increased about 10 dB and SNR seemed to be higher
1505 the decoded audio became shakier and the rest is sel-explanatory.
1534 the RF signal was a about +45 dBuV and increased another 10 dB at 1717 UTC.

Hi all thanks for all the reports. I just got back to my office and found that 7320 kHz is back to normal transmitting from Rampisham for the last few days.
I also got details of the antennas: For the tests we used a HRRS 4/2/.6/.7 on 78 degrees from Woofferton. Rampisham is normally HRS 4/2/.5/.5. on 80 degrees. In summary the difference between the antennas is that the first ones target area is more to North East of the second antenna. It seems the Rampisham antenna gives a better signal strength in Frankfurt, but I suspect that Baltic States would prefer the Woofferton antenna, especially as there is 4 dB extra transmitter power.

Pretty good conditions all day, but several breaks in transmission, signal from Norway using the same datastream was OK during the breaks.
Btw SNR has improved from Rampisham, today I got 31.9 dB with the G313i.

Hi all,

A rather good result until about 0800 then the signal weakened slowly.

simone
06-11-2006, 16:21
Good results, some Tx breaks, I wonder what happened at 11:30, more stable signal then.
Simone

simone
07-11-2006, 16:37
Any changes at the Tx site today? Best results between 10:45- 13:00, bad results after 13:00.
Also, switching between 7320 and 7465 kHz caused a loss of sync, but 5875 and 7465 kHz seemed to be synchronized.
Simone

simone
08-11-2006, 16:18
Best period today was from 09:00- 14:30, signals from Rampisham and Kvitsoy were not synchronized when switching between 7320 kHz and 9470 kHz, no signal until now on 7465 kHz today.
Simone

Quite good from 09:00- 14:00 today.

Bad propagation conditions at the start yesterday, both days the signal was weaker and quite instable after the break at 11:00, problems for decoding both days from 13:30. Signals were synchronized with Kvitsoy´s transmissions in the morning.
Still the known audio problem.
