Hello friends

Daz Man in Australia has produced YouTube videos about the Shortwave Radiogram experiment with EasyDRF, May 11-16. See Part 1 and Part 2. Thanks to Daz for producing the EasyDRF programs, and the videos about them.

As we approach the summer solstice, reception can be difficult on some of our frequencies that prefer paths of darkness. Examples would include the Saturday 2300 UTC on 7570 kHz and Tuesday 1430 UTC on kHz. Try them anyway.They are a good test for our robust MFSK32 text. Or visit SDRs such as kiwisdr.com/public/  to receive via more favorable locations, including the southeast USA for some of the WRMI frequencies.

A video of last weekend's Shortwave Radiogram (program 305)  is provided by Scott in Ontario (Friday 1300 UTC). The audio archive is maintained by Mark in the UK. Analysis is prepared by Roger in Germany.

Here is the lineup for Shortwave Radiogram, program 306, 25-30 May 2023, in MFSK modes as noted:
 
 1:40  MFSK32: Program preview
 2:45  MFSK32: High-speed orbital data using lasers
 6:56  MFSK64: Tonga volcano disrupted satellite communications
11:02  MFSK64: This week's images
28:39  MFSK32: Closing announcements
