  • MFSK decode in Italy withstands Slim Whitman and the usual shortwave degradations

    Giuliano, near Livorno, Italy, recorded his reception of VOA Radiogram on 9 June 2013, 1930-2000 UTC, on 15670. He used a Sangean ATS-909 portable shortwave radio.

    Giuliano’s reception conditions included a fair signal, adjacent-channel interference, static and fading. His decode of the MFSK modes was nevertheless very successful.

    Listen (and decode) especially from 7:00 to 23:15 into the video, noting the  pop-up of the Flmsg web page, the 100% copy of MFSK16 despite Slim Whitman, and near-100% copy of MFSK32 minus 9 dB also with Slim Whitman on the channel.

    Alas, EasyPal could not decode under such conditions.

    The YouTube video was produced from Giuliano’s .wma file by Andy, N9VT.
