The Mighty KBC on 9450 kHz.....special experiment

This weekend, one more North America broadcast of The Mighty KBC on 9450 kHz via Bulgaria, before switching to 7375 kHz via Nauen the following week. The broadcast is Sunday 0000-0200 UTC (7-9 pm EST Saturday evening in North America). This UTC Sunday, 24 February, at about 0130 UTC, MFSK16 will be transmitted, centered on 510, 1000, 1500, 2000, 2500, and 2900 Hertz. This is to test whether the audio frequency of digital text has an affect on the ability to decode. At just before 0200 UTC, we will explore whether digital text and voice can be transmitted simultaneously. MF63-2000 long interleave will be centered on 2000 Hertz. First will be a 34-second transmission, with Kim Andrew Elliott talking at the same time. That will be followed by the same 34-second transmission, but, thankfully, Kim is silent. These messages will be Flmsg-formatted, with html. In Fldigi, go to Configure > Misc > NBEMS > under Reception of flmsg files click Open with flmsg, and below that indicate the location of flmsg.exe http://voaradiogram.net

KBC Radio tests again in digital mode on 18th Nov

At The Mighty KBC, we have been experimenting with digital text modes during our Sunday 0000-0200 UTC broadcast on 9450 kHz. Text via shortwave can be a useful substitute if the Internet is disrupted or blocked.

To decode the digital text transmissions, we suggest that you download FLDIGI from www.w1hkj.com. Please also download FLMSG, because we will use it on our 25 November broadcast.

On 18 November, the first text transmission at about 0130 UTC will be in three modes simultaneously. On the "waterfall," PSKR125 will be centered at 1000 Hz, DominoEX 16 at 1500 Hz, and MFSK32 at 2000 Hz. Decode one of the modes from your radio, then decode the others from
your recording.

Just before 0200 UTC, The Mighty KBC program schedule will be sent as a web page. Two modes will be available: PSKR250 on the left, and MFSK64 on the right. Decode one from the radio, and the other from your recording.

Posts: 42 ... due to the bad luck, the DRM exciter has stuck and the transmitter remained on carrier only, that's the worse start of a new proejcet i could imagine. But thanks for monitoring, we hope we will get it fixed for the next transmission.


Many thanks for monitoring folks, every time the beggining is difficult, but let's hope it will lead to positive results in the future.
