I was ( although I didn't say so ) excluding the SDR-IQ completely on account
of that very big limitation. If you want to cover the full BCB, it isn't
happening today for under a grand so far as I know.

Nothing here at LSS but WTRU all alone and blasting in as usual. WCRN has
never been heard here. But I'll get anything from NC before I hear even a peep
out of New England. I've logged more NC stations than I have Ohio stations.
In fact, I've logged more NC stations than there are Ohio
The NEW Olens MiCorder catches my fancy.

Russ:
You can get the well-received WinRadio Excalibur for $850 or the just as
good QS1R for $999. Both record at least 2 MHZ worth of RF.

Excalibur is $850 at Grove,
Russhttp://www.grove-ent.com/excalibur.html Detailed review
appeared in DX Monitor just recently...and of course, none of the
analog receivers covered the full BCB either! Mine cover one channel
at a time, and they need a separate audio recorder for that
Just haven't had a moment to give my reflections on the Perseus. One
problem I am having is that on play-back of recordings, particularly when I
am just getting underway a wave a static buzz kicks in. It's not on the
recording, because by replaying I can sometimes get rid of it completely.
Thanks Chuck and Nick, although in the one case, we're quibbling over $2 g.
Even so, I have trouble justifying $850 though. I don't think I've spent that
much cumulatively over my years in the hobby, considering two HQ-150's and two
ICF 2010's. For the record, I bought my first HQ-150 used in
Jim,
Can the noise you hear be characterized as stuttering - e.g. choppy
sounding audio? When I use external USB drives with my Perseus, I often get
that effect (some drives are worse than others). I've switched to an eSATA
interface external drive, and never get that problem any more.

Only just slowly getting into staying up later
until all the TV sets are off...
Last nights dominant was CC on 981khz
audible on everything with or without extra
antenna help. around 0730 UTC
Very little in the way of Pac. Islands signals -
only dominant one being 738 Tahiti.
Nothing to speak
Many thanks to all who responded re WCRN-830! I much appreciate all of you
sharing your extensive knowledge!

Colin, your Pacific Island reception (or lack thereof) is pretty much
identical to what I experienced in Kauai in late Nov/early Dec. Try the
morning, though, for 540 2AP, and for Australia then as well. Both heard
well then. 1017 was a huge disappointment...barely there, even in

I'm not a big user of SDR's Mike, but ignorance has never stood in
the way of an opinion, I'm afraid. I own an RFSpace SDR-14 (and
use several more at work in a type of wideband sonar system), and
have used a borrowed SDR-IP; both have been used with their own
software, Spectravue, as well
Hmmm, second hand SDRsonly a matter of time. They may lose
value less quickly perhaps, as long as their software keeps
evolving. Remember also, it was only just over two years ago that
the Perseus was the first to record the entire MW band! There's been
a lot of DX under the bridge in
Hi Guys:
Things were pretty subdued tonight at SUNSET with Nothing New heard
and the only thing of note was a RELOG of 690 WOKV Jacksonville, FLORIDA
with Sean Hannity @ 1742 EST. Signal was above WELD Fisher, West Virginia!!
This was heard on the SONY SRF-T615 ULR Barefoot.
It was nice
Unless we're still talking about tube gear, I'm past the tinkerer stage g.
I understand and agree that SDR's are very likely the future, and I have no
problem with that conceptually. After all, over the past 5-6 years, probably
90% of my BCB DX outside of the LBI DXpeditions has been via
910 KNEW Oakland, CA is without IBOC for the last 3 weeks.
Measured at 910.00273 kHz 01/08/2011.

I've got clips I'll post tomorrow, when I get back to Toronto. But I think
it's Venezuela that's been dominant with information/talk programming on
790, way over Reloj and NFL football. 940 earlier had Mexican music that
IDed as Radio La ??? and was right on channel, unlike Mexico City, which
