It's all about the Software

I have been testing a Wellgood Loop Antenna with an RX-888 MKII. I've been getting impressive results, especially around 5 MHz for the UK Aero Volmets where there is a low noise floor.

But I have a huge noise jump from around 8.5 MHz to 12 MHz...

I will be soon receiving an MFJ TX/RX mag loop antenna.

I understand it has a VERY narrow band in both transmit and receive.

For those who have used this or similar narrow band loop, what has been your experience using that antenna with the SDR...

In the US, digital radio is accomplished by broadcasting the data on the upper portion of the lower adjacent channel and also on the lower portion of the higher adjacent channel. This poses a problem where if a station is present on either adjacent...

Hi all,
Wondering if anyone has seen anything like this before and, if so, what is the likely culprit. I was away for two weeks, came home and turned on the radio to find this wonderful new noise all across 80/75m with approximately 24khz spacing...

The day before yesterday i received a handheld personnel Dosimeter , brand new and a weeks wait off the bay .

14 day battery life with screen and alarms off , rechargeable .

After setting it all up i hung it on the wall off a self tapper turned on...

Hello,

I am close to purchasing a linear dc power supply to try to improve my sw listening experience
on AM mainly. (1-30 MHz).

I realize that I don't have a good handle on how noisy my setup is, or isn't.
So, I thought I would make some very...

Hello everybody,
Greetings and my best wishes!
Just registered, although was browsing this site for a while and like it very much. For some time, already, digging into SDR, but my interest, exclusively, in receivers. Have no intention to transmit. I...

Hi Simon,

I know I have been asking this a few times before. I'm sad this small mod has not been implemented yet or considered. I always get an ugly TX feedback when going from TX to RX with my external radio. I don't think it is a huge programming...

Hi,

what would be the costs for the forum to run one year without advertizing ? Somehow my page has more advertizing as forum topic space.

i have now a RX888 MK-II and it's great to see the hole 32 MHz Spektrum!

Please keep up the good Work!!

I know there are a lot of FM DXers on this site, so although principally targeted at ham radio operators, this site by Jim Bacon G3YLA is a brilliant resource for anyone interested in predicting Es propagation.

Knew about it for a while but not...

What are these sets of signals that I have outlined either side of the screen.
The two sets are connected and I see the same thing on other frequencies VLF to HF.
I see them on radios all over the place not just at my location.
The higher...

Hi Simon,

I'll miss your DXGalaxy.com site. I prefer its look and feel much more than the other DX cluster sites I've visited. I'm looking forward to it going live again!

Decided to purchase the latest version of the MLA-30 loop antenna called the MLA-30+
Looks like the 30+ has improved performance above 11mhz.

I was wondering if anyone has modified it to include a BNC connection for better quality coax and added a...

It may be inappropriate to raise an issue like this because of its political content, in which case I won't be offended to have it removed. I'm curious to know how other radio users feel about buying stuff from China, as I've got strong...

I downloaded the SDR Console 3 and the drivers from this site but I am not certain where the drivers are supposed to go.
I have the RX888 to use with it, however, since I have not figured out how to use the ywo together yet, I tried my old RF Space...

Hi all.

I learnt that the SAQ 17.2 kHz x-mas transmission is unfortunately canceled this year due to the pandemic.

Hi. I've just installed the software and I know my favorite radio station is 97Mkz can I listen to the broadcast? What should I do? I'm still wet behind the ears. :lol:

Well that's my listening seriously curtailed.
This weekend broadband interference has appeared across the HF spectrum.
I have new neighbours one side but they are still waiting for their broadband to be connected and the other side say they...

Hi,

lAfter a long time of issue-free work my PSK synchronisation failed spontaneously after a couple of minutes and doesn’t lock again. I checked all HW and SW. No success.
At last I discovered the cause: Terrible short spikes on the 50 Hz energy...

Hi folks (Simon?)

I have tried many times over last few weeks/months to see spots on DX Galaxy but all I ever get is a blank screen (with some ad code at top - see attached screenshot):

Is the site functional? Is there something I am missing...

Sorry to hear that. I know the feeling.
Wish a stick or two of new RAM could give me a new lease of life ;)
