Voice of Russia on 15780 kHz

Jesus!

Here in northwestern Germany no such signal like in lucky Bavaria!
carknue will have to modify his DRMcalc 3.2.

Hi all,
also here very good signal. After changing the modification of my FT757 i could today get 40 dB SNR for the first time. The 9 kHz AM filter is a little too small (advantage in case of interference), limiting the max SNR to 38 dB. Now i can also use the 455 kHz IF at the input of the AM filter, improving the max SNR in case of no adjacent channel signals.

Hi,
Some of your reports about >40 dB SNR made me curious and I logged this frequency for an hour in the morning, 3rd of October. Unfortunately, I cannot agree with this at all.... Will keep an eye on it for a while though.

Hi all,

log from this morning (scaled now for SNR up to 44 dB! - TNX to Carsten) . Today I observed a double pulse with only 0.6 ms time difference (see attachment). Normally the time difference between pulses is 2 ms which results from additiional hops between the F-layer in approx. 300 km height and ground. The only explanation I have for 0.6 ms (180 km) is that the signal was also (or the 2nd hop) was reflected on the E-layer in approx. 90 km height.
Does anyone have a good explanation for this double pulse?

Hi,

excellent condx this morning! SNR> 42 dB for minutes.

Bernd, DF9RB

Good reception here, but not a strong signal max. S9. So no chance of SNR highscores at the moment

[df9rb]

Best reception was in the beginning of the transmission.
Max SNR 44.5 dB! (Carsten scaling up to 44 dB is not really
enough but I would leave it)
BTW the digital part from VoR is excellent but analogue volume
is changing up and down and I always have to readjust volume control on my speakers!!!!

During the German program SNR 45.1 dB.

Quite unstable here.

Hi,

Very good reception at my site.
But what happend at 10:42 UTC? The transmission was supposed to stop at 12 UTC.

[FritzWue]

Here in the northwest of Germany no chance getting the same strong signals like Bernd DF9RB has in the southeast.

Comparing Indoor- / Outdoor-antenna

The differnence is dramatically. 1st graph 3 ele ham yagi 15 m up, 2nd Degen indoor loop at the window. I think the indoor antenna is more standard for SW-listeners - some improvements are necessary.

Sorry but I can only get frustrating results like this over here

Hi all,

since 30-th of October 2005 till 4-th of March 2006 the VOR daily programs will be transmitted on 12060 kHz at 08:00-13:00 UTC and on 5810 at 14:00-17:00 UTC.

Thanks for your monitoring and reports.
