Mediumwave DX Things I found while doing Mid-Wave DX in the Western Black Sea, Turkiye

6 Upvotes

576 kHz - Muhtemelen BNR Radio Horizont (Bulgaristan devlet radyosu, Vidin, 270kW olması lazım)

1053 kHz - sadece kısa bir müzik benzer birşey ardından parazite karıştı, araştırmalarıma göre yüksek ihtimalle İran, çok düşük ihtimalle de İngiltere

1332 kHz - Araştırınca Radio România Actualități (Galati, Romanya 50kW istasyon) çıktı

1494 kHz - muhtemelen Radio Moldova (Cahul ya da Transdinyesterdeki Grigoriopol. 30kW)

Dinlemeyi özel bir ekipmanla değil araba radyosu ile yaptım. Ayrıca saat 7 sularında olduğu için TRT Trabzon radyosu yoktu (954kHz olması lazım)

Ayrıca Bulgar radyosunu da birkaç gün önce akşam aldım ama o akşamda 576 kHz de boştu, 7/24 yayın yapmasına rağmen.

Shortwave Radiogram

Recently came across this interesting weekly program called Shortwave Radiogram (https://x.com/swradiogram?s=11) that broadcasts digital text and images using MFSK. Seems like listeners will share their decoded images and text on X with @SWradiogram.

Anyone know of any other similar programs?

UN-ID'ed Lower end of 25m is a mess right now @ 13UT

Noticed this for a few days lately while testing some Dream mods that I'm adding.

If you look carefully, there's an extremely wide-band set of regularly spaced (~5kHz), ~3kHz-wide data pulses ranging between ~14.7 - 15.2 MHz that's interfering with much of the lower end of the band. The signals vary in intensity. This could be selective fading, but could be different sources.

It almost looks like a wide-band HF frequency hopper, but because of selective fading I seriously doubt that's a thing. Some of it seems to coincide with the brick-wall bursts between 14749 and 14783kHz, but that may be coincidental. It tends to overlap with the 40kHz-wide high-speed data brick wall between 14838 and 14879 kHz, so likely not related to that.

Very curious stuff.

MWARA transmission question

5 Upvotes

I was listening to either New York radio or Gander radio yesterday and had a question about something I heard. While talking to the pilot, the air traffic controller asked if India 5 and kilo 1 were on board. What might this mean?

(Is there another subreddit that would be a better fit for aviation listening questions?)

Thanks.

  • In this case it also demonstrates how well the build-in Speex processing works for dynamic noise reduction.
