Hello All,
Yesterday's torrid Kiwi propagation didn't repeat for a second day, temporarily
making Chuck, Tom and I wonder if the session might turn out to be somewhat of
a letdown. But around 1300 the Cliff delivered interesting DX as usual, with
several low-band Australians providing some e

The filters in Perseus (and most SDR's) are light years better than analog
radios. Sensitivity is adequate below 10 or 15 MHz but not good above that.
It's good at handling strong signals including long Beverages.
As for other radios, the current QS1R, WinRadio, Elad and RFSpace radios
1. Yes
2. Won't work with tuned antenna, unless you are only aiming to record one
channel. Requires a long wire, flag, or a beverage.
3. Yes, but I only have Perseus experience so I will let others respond
You will need a decent laptop and large capacity outboard storage unit for
Perseus files
Not exactly hyper-skilled in the technical arena, I am considering buying a
Perseus and have three questions:
(1) Above and beyond its ability to record wide expanses of the spectrum, is it
an above-average receiver?
(2) I have a couple of indoor loops which obviously you tune for max signal

1575 also noted here in passing but I have not listened to recordings yet
except 1566.
As for similarities, remember that Gary only listens to the bottom 300 or 400
kHz of the band. He's also very Kiwi focused.

Looks like the guys at Rockworks picked a good weekend. Another
interesting morning here, even slightly better than yesterday, but with
some different stations favoured, as Gary noted. Here it was mostly a
high band morning, like yesterday. Certainly some carriers at the low
end, but non

Unlike Gary, I had quite a few Australians plus a bit from Japan, South Korea
and China. But Australia was the king of all for me. Here's a short clip of 3NE

Hello All,
There was no repeat of yesterday's torrid Kiwi propagation at the plunging
ocean cliff this morning, but as usual the awesome view site provided a silver
lining for DXers hoping for some excitement. Around 1300 the Australians on the
low band became unusually strong, with relative
Thanks Bill.
As you might guess, the DU propagation this morning was completely different
from yesterday-- weird Australians all over the low band, while the Kiwis were
relatively subdued. Chuck seemed to be looking for a repeat of yesterday, but
Tom and I were thankful for the variety!

Tell me more about KHMB 1710. I've never heard of them. I see that they

Nick, I checked out the band after dropping off my sister at the airport
starting at 12:25 Aug 8, and sure enough the two best signals were from

Sounds like KQQZ-1190 in DeSoto, MO, is on their daytime power. They are
