Signal gets in here, but no audio :-(
(or lets say: a little bit of rumbling noise; problems with audio feed?) More later. Stephan

South America in my World Traveller! But too weak signal for constant reception.
More later (of course) Edit: A strong AM station has "joined" HCJB now. ![]()

Unfortunately a strong AM signal on 9865 kills most of the fun.
I started my log around 0420 UTC and the AM 5 kHz down was already causing heavy QRM at that time. Yes, no audio, just a lot of "empty" bits in the wav file. Then at 0500 after the time signal I got audio. The SNR with and without decoded audio is about 20 dB. 0600 UTC: Now perfect reception! The antenna signal is about +30 dBuV. ![]() Last edited by Digger : 30-04-2007 at 06:11. Reason: Perfect from 0600 UTC |

78% audio since 0800 UTC.
It might be the first low-German program on DRM! ![]()

@DRMDAB: You are probably right with the first transmission in low german
Here's my log from this (first) morning. Not that bad with much QRM from 9865kHz. Note: The first zwo peaks (04.10 UTC and 04.25 UTC) are not from hcjb!I tried to get DW after some minutes of quiteness at 9870 to assure that my web-controlled receiver works properly. It seems like Dream did not recognized that. The HCJB Signal rises arround 4.30UTC (about 1 hour after sunrise?!). Some of the dropouts (most in the last half hour) are caused by (about all 10 minutes recurring and through all am-bands) local noise which is arround at the whole neighbourhood. If i only knew what causes that?!?73, Stephan

To add to my first entry, here is the log from Switzerland. Unfortunately, there were three TX breaks at 0615, 0619 and around 0626 UTC, otherwise the last 28 minutes were perfect. I added Pifo in the log list, my distance to the TX should be OK.
PS: Even Morphy enjoyed receiving DX signals from overseas... ![]() Last edited by Digger : 30-04-2007 at 07:09. Reason: Even Morphy enjoyed receiving DX signals ;-) |

News from Ecuador
I wrote to Iris Rauscher (German service) about the reception conditions this morning. She just answered my message and said it might be possible to go up 5 kHz.
But I think you know more, Doug? They have got a very nice QSL card (train) for DRM reports: drm @ hcjb.org.ec Or to the German service: german @ hcjb.org.ec Have a nice evening Douglas Kähler
