It's all about the Software

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 ;)

Handy for us, radio amateurs, too. (EU only)

Hi all.
I am in the possession of a MCL ZMIQ-895M-1 IQ-modulator/demodulator, but can not locate a data sheet. Neither on the MCL web-page nor on the Internet as a whole.
Can it be so lucky that someone here does have such a data sheet?

My...

This noise is pervasive and seems to exist in SDR Console as opposed to SDRuno. To me sounds like water waves breaking on a beach . Seems to be across all bands. Hoping it will be a setting I am missing somewhere. Any help would be appreciated. I...

Just for interest...

Back then, I was at school and could only dream of affording such things.

A crystal controlled 8 channel receiver for today's equivilent of around £450 -...

Hi,

Since for the last 6 months or so, I have been annoying everyone for
suggestions as to what my very substantial noise might be (2 to 3 MHz, am), thought I would Post what I have, finally,
discovered.

In our kitchen, we have a very, very, very,...

Hello,

Regarding these wall-warts that we seem to have all over the place these days:

Before I crawl under everything removing them one by one:

Not sure how similar one brand is to another, but what are the typical frequencies one might
expect to...

Greetings,

I could sure use some help trying to identify as shown in the attached pictures. This interference occurs in the 2 mhz, 7-10 mhz, and 16-20 mhz bands and to a minor amount elsewhere on HF.

I have had this problem before. I have walked...

Hello all.
Last week, a broadbanded RX888 SDR (up to 32mb) was delivered from AliE by Postnl about 2.5 weeks after ordering. For the enthusiasts here are some notes
- Due to the large amount of data, the RX888 must be connected to the USB 3.
- The...
