Hello friends,
Our new experiments with MFSK32
on the VOA Mandarin Service continue. The center audio frequency has been moved
up to 2500 Hz, so you will probably need a 6 kHz bandwidth for best results.
Until the MFSK32 begins, most
of the audio you hear will probably be Chinese domestic radio on the same
frequency as VOA Mandarin.
Each MFSK32 transmission is 1
minute, 10 seconds. Here is the schedule:
Daily
UTC
2258 6135 9845
kHz
0058 9880 15385 15565
17560 kHz
Please send reception reports
for the VOA Mandarin MFSK32 to radiogram@voanews.com. Audio recordings
(mp3 is OK) are especially helpful.
