Paul, Thanks! Very cool ... I will listen to them again tonight on the ham shack computer where I can play them back through some good speakers without the distractions that abound here in the office.
I hate it when trivial work concerns interfere with my important hobby activities.

This past weekend Brett N2DTS and myself were in QSO on 40m with a fellow running a very clean sounding DX-100. We both rolled tape on a specific part of the guy's transmission. Brett if you still have that sound file, maybe render it down to an MP3 and I'll do the same? We can then describe receivers. Meantime, there are some other sound files kicking around that are worth downloading. I've got a few that I remember what receiver I used: >From the diode of an SP600 at 13Kc selectivity: http://www.wa3vjb.com/sound/HUZ-FT102%20(2).mp3 >From the diode of an R390 at 16kc selectivity: http://www.wa3vjb.com/sound/W2DTC-doodler.mp3 >From the "line output" of an R390A at 8Kc: http://www.wa3vjb.com/sound/W0VMC.mp3 Steve, WB3HUZ has a pile o' files too: http://www.amwindow.org/audio/htm/audio.htm Here is the sound of a 51S-1F up on 10 meters AM: http://www.amwindow.org/audio/mov/f5hsh.mov In addition, check this batch of wav and MP3: http://www.amfone.net/audio/ These will give a continuum of sound quality for sure.
