  • VOA Radiogram digital text survives low level audio

    Claudio in Italy kindly sent a recording of his reception on 24 March at 1930 UTC on 15740 kHz. Because we do not have the necessary HDSDR player, the playback audio level is too low to understand anything that Kim was saying. The tones, however, could be heard, just barely. And the tones could be decoded.This turned out to be a very good test of the capabilities of digital text via analog shortwave broadcast.

    Here is the audio of the Flmsg transmission in PSKR250, beginning a with a few seconds of Kim’s introduction. You might want to try to decode it yourself. It produced this web page:
