RE: Audio Sample Of Pl880 Radio
Sounds pretty good. Sounds like you get a lot of white noise on the AM band though in the spaces between stations. Damb that was a lot of wind like noise. -Original Message- From: Pc-audio [mailto:pc-audio-boun...@pc-audio.org] On Behalf Of Dane Trethowan Sent: Monday, March 24, 2014 5:53 AM To: PC Audio Discussion List Subject: Audio Sample Of Pl880 Radio Hi!

Re: Audio Sample Of Pl880 Radio
I think it more than white noise, interference from somewhere and I'm not at all surprised given that the recording was made near a computer but still remarkable audio quality from a very small portable.

Re: Audio Sample Of Pl880 Radio
Does anyone know if KNX is HD? If he went 10 KHZ below or above KNX, which was the audio we originally heard, the noise could have been the HD noise.

Re: Audio Sample Of Pl880 Radio
Ah of course, didn't think of that but then again I'm in Australia smile, another sample exclusively on the AM band is being prepared I believe and I will thus share it with you when it becomes available.

RE: Audio Sample Of Pl880 Radio
Ah okay then. Then that means it could have been PC sounds. I use to do that on my radios when I was a little lad just for the hell of it as a neighbor use to say. I would put it on one of those stations the radio couldn't get, then I'd hold a toy up to it and listen to the sounds of said toy come threw the radio in that messed up interference kind of way.

RE: Audio Sample Of Pl880 Radio
For what part would you use the H1? I just did it just to mess around with the radio. Though some of these were those tape recorder boomb boxes, I did record the interference the toy prodused in the radio. It was fun. I would even create pass buy like effects by bringing the toy closer and closer to the radio to faid it in, and then pull it away slowly to faid it out. I did this with a toy horse. Lol. It was mad fun. It was annoying with motorized toys though cause you get the buz of the moter over the radio too and of course on the recording. -Original Message- From: Pc-audio [mailto:pc-audio-boun...@pc-audio.org] On Behalf Of Dane Trethowan Sent: Monday, March 24, 2014 5:48 PM To: PC Audio Discussion List Subject: Re: Audio Sample Of Pl880 Radio Each to their own smile, if I'm doing something like that then I use my Zoom H1 but not everyone has one of those or anything like it.
