Hello everybody! HCJB now uses 15280 kHz to Europe in the DRM Mode with 4 kW and a Rhombic Antenna. Time: 11.00 - 13.00 UTC. Bitrate isonly 14.78 kBit, but audio is very good for that low bitrate. For proper decoding a SNR of 10 - 12 dB is needed.
Program lineup includes Musica del ecuador at 11.00 - 1130 News programming in spanish 11.30 - 12.00 Low German 12.00 - 12.30 German 12.30 - 13.00 As the rhombic targets 35 & 225 degrees, it is maybe possible to receive this transmission in the south pacific, too. I would be very interested if reception is possible in NZ & parts of Australia? SNR in germany gets up to 17 dB at my Deltaloop with the "Pappradio" Low Cost SDR connected to a Computer. If set up a little livestream. So if someone wants to test the quality you can connect to: http://schaa.dyndns.org:8080/stream.aac with Winamp or VLC (or every other Software that can decode AAC+ streams) 73, Stephan ---[Start Commercial]--------------------- Order your WRTH 2008: http://www.hard-core-dx.com/redirect2.php?id=wrth2008 ---[End Commercial]----------------------- ________________________________________ Hard-Core-DX mailing list Hard-Core-DX@hard-core-dx.com http://montreal.kotalampi.com/mailman/listinfo/hard-core-dx http://www.hard-core-dx.com/ _______________________________________________ THE INFORMATION IN THIS ARTICLE IS FREE.
