April 30, 2019, 5:34 p.m. I'm sure we'll be seeing a lot of FT4 reports on the e-skip propagation map now, in addition to FT8. de Andrew KN8FEL OH EN91

April 30, 2019, 5:25 p.m. I tried the new digital FT4 ham mode last night. My first contact was to Argentina on 14.081 MHz. It'll be interesting to see what this mode can do on the other frequencies. It sounds like mosquitoes. de Andrew KN8FEL OH EN91

April 30, 2019, 5:10 p.m. There is also an APRS digipeater on the International Space Station. The frequency is 145.825. de Andrew KN8FEL OH EN91

April 30, 2019, 5:06 p.m. I use the VHF Propagation map a lot, but if it's ever down, I can turn on the APRS frequency of 144.39 on my HT and see for myself if there is any tropo being digipeated from the local repeater. de Andrew KN8FEL OH EN91

It's gonna be a while before anything surfaces here, but if I was busy DXing tropo all the time, I doubt I woulda bothered getting my amateur extra license. At least I'm pursuing that instead.

April 26, 2019, 1:55 p.m. Andrew... FT8 is sooo yesterday :-) wonder what's gonna replace it de Ed W-KY EM56

April 26, 2019, 1:53 p.m. It's sure taking a long time to implement ATSC 3.0. At least with ham radio, it seems a new mode comes out every week, and hams don't wait to use the new modes. de Andrew KN8FEL OH EN91

April 26, 2019, 1:51 p.m. Page is loaded with ads, switch to reader view if you don't want to see the garbage. de Jim-T MO EM37

April 26, 2019, 1:49 p.m. Steve... I also remember Jeff K saying he had a hard time w the Jackson TN stns, too de Ed W-KY EM56

April 26, 2019, 1:49 p.m. You are correct Ed...ODFM does NOT use a pilot carrier, compared to 8-VSB technology. ATSC is *thousands* of carriers de Jim-T MO EM37

April 26, 2019, 1:43 p.m. Tr WHDF 2/15 Florence AL 146 mi is sub-d atm... Cold front came thru, yesterday. Tr condx winter-like, today de Ed W-KY EM56

April 26, 2019, 1:41 p.m. We'll probably hv to buy 3.0 pre-amps, too :-) de Ed W-KY EM56

April 26, 2019, 1:40 p.m. ... Had to buy 'color' antennas back in the 60s :-) de Ed W-KY EM56

April 26, 2019, 1:38 p.m. Aw, Man! Now I'm gonna have to buy a 3.0 antenna?! :-) de Ed W-KY EM56

April 26, 2019, 1:37 p.m. Jim... I'm not sure 3.0 will use a pilot carrier... heard / read that, somewhere de Ed W-KY EM56

April 26, 2019, 1:37 p.m. I've already seen antenna co. ads saying they will have antennas capable of receiving the new ATSC 3.0 signal!!! Empty your wallets now! de Jim-T MO EM37

April 26, 2019, 1:34 p.m. ...$1475 most expensive ATSC 1.0 tuner.. de Jim-T MO EM37

April 26, 2019, 1:33 p.m. Most expensive ATSC tuners available direct from mfr (up to &1475) are still 1.0 and not sure an SDR could process 3.0 unless it was *built* to receive 3.0, but could show the pilot signal. de Jim-T MO EM37

April 26, 2019, 1:33 p.m. Ed, I haven't read any new updates on 3.0 boxes. Late last yr. it sure sounded as though we'd have some by now. BTW, yes, Jeff Kadet used to comment about rarely seeing B.G, KY signals in Macomb, IL. de indysteve IN EM69

April 26, 2019, 1:29 p.m. RE: Sometime since yest. afternoon manual tuner at Payson left on RF 23 caught KODE, Joplin, MO. Discovered it this morning. de indysteve IN EM69

April 26, 2019, 1:25 p.m. 1321... Or new 3.0 software for the SDRs ? de Ed W-KY EM56

April 26, 2019, 1:22 p.m. [13:06] Same issue with out-in-the-sticks Milford site. Wild signal swings on RF 6, although I'm sure some are due to WRME-LP 6, Chicago (MeTV FM) @ 87 mi. (Hancock Tower). Milford setup MIA atm. Think internet issue. de indysteve IN EM69

April 26, 2019, 1:21 p.m. Perhaps the ATSC 3.0 will work better... Hv any 3.0 'boxes' surfaced, yet ? de Ed W-KY EM56

April 26, 2019, 1:17 p.m. I never had any problems with analog 6. I can see plenty of Es on analog, despite the noise and interference. de Andrew KN8FEL OH EN91

April 26, 2019, 1:16 p.m. The problem is the DTV standard. It's crap for getting anything to decode with any interference or noise whatsoever. WOUC 6 is completely absent. de Andrew KN8FEL OH EN91

April 26, 2019, 1:13 p.m. We'll see what happens when Es gets rolling... Maybe somebody will log WOUC... I'll be lookin' for it de Ed W-KY EM56

April 26, 2019, 1:12 p.m. Andrew, I think your local FM's, especially 88.1 are what's killling WOUC for you. Your DTV tuner just isn't selective enough to reject the FM QRM. de dtvdxer NY FN31

April 26, 2019, 1:11 p.m. Tr I've got a steady (weak) DTV 6 pilot 82.31) bmg ur direction but suspect it's Lebanon KY... A few Ms pings in there w it, too de Ed W-KY EM56

April 26, 2019, 1:09 p.m. Ed, I can't remember if I told you, but I was in Cambridge a few weeks ago, and I watched WOUC 6 on my portable TV at 13 miles from the transmitter using a China-crap antenna designed for UHF. And the signal was full scale. de Andrew KN8FEL OH EN91

April 26, 2019, 1:08 p.m. When it comes to low-VHF, I've had better luck with channels 2 and 3. de Andrew KN8FEL OH EN91

April 26, 2019, 1:06 p.m. DT 6 is littered with all kinds of noise, and there could be spurious emissions from my blowtorches too... it's not pretty. de Andrew KN8FEL OH EN91

April 26, 2019, 1:06 p.m. Sounds like WOUC is a dud... I've got a strong local on 88.1 that chews on ch 6 even w the FM trap in line de Ed W-KY EM56

April 26, 2019, 1:04 p.m. Bypassing the preamp to try to receive WOUC didn't help either. de Andrew KN8FEL OH EN91

April 26, 2019, 1:03 p.m. Not that it matters, but I checked 82 to 88 MHz on my SDR, and there is what appears to be intermodulation from strong FM signals nearby. Those could be destroying WOUC, but I can't do anything. A full band FM trap would also cut out WOUC, and I really need to attenuate 88.1 WZIP and 89.7 WKSU. de Andrew KN8FEL OH EN91

April 26, 2019, 1:01 p.m. Ed, regarding WOUC, NO!! I noticed that neighboring WTRF 7 and WTOV 9 were decoding last night around 80% SNR, and WOUC was nowhere to be found, no even a yellow signal bar. de Andrew KN8FEL OH EN91

April 26, 2019, 12:59 p.m. btw... Has anyone seen ur 'new' WOUC 6 yet ? de Ed W-KY EM56

April 26, 2019, 12:53 p.m. I've heard a few pings from CJCH 2+ vid-car (55.26) in the past but nothing today de Ed W-KY EM56

April 26, 2019, 12:48 p.m. Ed, I seem to have better luck with the audio from channel 2 in Sheet Harbour. Every time I've logged that station, it's audio only and an extremely weak barely flickery video. de Andrew KN8FEL OH EN91

April 26, 2019, 12:46 p.m. And, come to think of it, it's been a loooong time since I've seen anything from Tulsa de Ed W-KY EM56

April 26, 2019, 12:42 p.m. ... They should be 'sitting ducks' but, no Tr :-( de Ed W-KY EM56

April 26, 2019, 12:41 p.m. It's certainly been dead in your direction, Jim... still need to log some of the 'new' ones from Joplin, Springfield, Rogers de Ed W-KY EM56

April 26, 2019, 12:24 p.m. With tropo non-existant for past several months, chs 38-51 are *deaf* now, other than rf 39 showing cellular noise de Jim-T MO EM37

April 22, 2019, 5:10 p.m. On the ham bands, 2 meters for example. I can send out a weak-signal mode like FT8 on 144.174 MHz, and I don't have to worry about capture effect and "broadcasters" who never cease transmitting and blocking DX. de Andrew KN8FEL OH EN91

April 22, 2019, 5:08 p.m. Well, looking at the FM dial here above 100 MHz for example, I have 6 DXable frequencies... that's it. It's all IBOC and locals everywhere else. And those 6 DXable frequencies are occupied in adjacent markets around 90 to 100 miles away. So the capture effect is going to mask any good long-haul tropo even if it ever does appear. de Andrew KN8FEL OH EN91

April 12, 2019, 11:52 a.m. [03:35 - amfmtv...] All stations repacked to a lower UHF channel were assigned a lower power since lower channels "get out" better under regular conditions. Many stations were then granted CP modifications to repack with original power, or in many cases, even higher power if it didn't cause interference. de dtvdxer NY FN31

April 12, 2019, 4:12 a.m. [03:53] Think I may have just found out why KLWB-DT-17 signal was reduced here. I checked their antenna's directional pattern and their signal beam has changed from east northeast to west northwest direction pointed away from my location. de amfmtvdtvbrla LA EM40

April 12, 2019, 3:53 a.m. The station is KLWB-DT-17 in Layfayette LA. Their signal was at 85 to 94 % on RF-50 now their signal is at 60 to 64 % on RF-17. de amfmtvdtvbrla LA EM40

April 10, 2019, 2:45 p.m. Ed, unfortunately no one is ever home on 146.52 anymore! I think I'd be better off with FT8 on 144.174. And FT8 is much narrower than a narrow FM signal. de Andrew KN8FEL OH EN91

April 10, 2019, 2:28 p.m. With sky-wave, 800 watts is a lot! But not so much with a ground-wave signal, as it would be terrible with penetrating terrain and other obstructions. But an unobstructed skywave path... not much difference between several kW and 800 watts. It boggled my mind that a 1/4 of a watt on UHF is all that's necessary to reach an amateur satellite orbiting hundreds of miles over the earth. de Andrew KN8FEL OH EN91

April 10, 2019, 2:24 p.m. I wonder if KREX viewers have trouble with their signal, being so close to the mountains? de Jim-T MO EM37

April 10, 2019, 2:23 p.m. WHDF 2 will be 14 kW. KREX 2 Grand Junction is only 800 watts, which I have seen a couple times. de Jim-T MO EM37

April 10, 2019, 1:35 p.m. Yeah, I'm sure someone 1000 miles away will receive WOUC before I can at 69 miles... that's usually how it goes here. de Andrew KN8FEL OH EN91

April 10, 2019, 1:30 p.m. Ed, I was in Cambridge OH a few days ago and checked for WOUC 6/44... it was a good signal at 13 miles from the transmitter using one of those flat China-crap UHF antennas. I have still yet to see any yellow signal bar on DT 6 here at 69 miles from the transmitter. de Andrew KN8FEL OH EN91
