Last
weekend I missed all the shows. My wife and I were in Colorado visiting our son
the graduate student. So I’m glad you sent in your reports, either via email or
to the @SWRadiogram Twitter account. And thanks to Al in Florida @grovekid for
moderating @SWRadiogram while I was out of town.
Videos of last weekend’s Shortwave Radiogram (program 69) are provided by Scott in Ontario (Friday 2030 UTC), 2010DFS in Japan and Ralf in Germany (both Saturday 1600 UTC). In addition, Ralf provided this unforgettable video of the story about the Sans Forgetica font being printed by Fldigi in the Sans Forgetica font.
Finally,
PE7B produced three videos of reception and decoding using an Android mobile
phone: MFSK128
text, MFSK128
image, and MFSK64 image. The audio archive is maintained by Mark in the UK.
Analysis of last weekend’s Shortwave Radiogram and other programs transmitting
text and images is prepared by Roger in Germany.
This
weekend we will transmit the usual combination of MFSK32, 128, and 64, with
nine MFSK images.
Here
