Hello friends,
Our transmission Saturdays 1600-1630 UTC on 9400 kHz, via Bulgaria, is intended for Europe is but often heard to the east, as far as Japan and New Zealand. To the west, the limit seems to be Iceland, but fragments of reception in North America are beginning to occur. Richard in New Brunswick decoded a few words of text on 22 July. And Bob in Ontario, 160 km northwest of Ottawa, was surprised to decode this image on 15 July, during unattended reception…
Last weekend, there were several instances of successful Olivia 64-2000 decoding in difficult reception conditions, when the MFSK32 was less than 100%. This weekend, our mode for difficult reception will be MFSK16, with most of show in MFSK32. There will be five MFSK32 images, including two that are gray scale, also known as grey scale, i.e. black and white.
Here is the lineup for Shortwave Radiogram, program 7, 5-6 August 2017, all in MFSK32 except where noted:
