What's your QTH?

What all is this

Maybe hear and even decode that mysterious CW signal if you place the KiWi into CW mode instead of USB mode. Also, I believe there's a builtin CW decoder plugin somewhere in there. I could be wrong, not a big CW operator myself. Worth a try. 73, and salutations; ... - - - ...

Green eggs and ham!

I love radio stuff. First video of yours that ive seen. Went ahead and subscribed for you. Good luck with your channel. You'll probably see some comments time to time from me.

I found the same resistor on Amazon and tried this myself. It works great! Thanks so much for sharing this idea.

Used to be some rc model plane frequency in there somewhere.

Part of 11 used to be a ham band pre 58 or 62

Great idea. I've used inductive and proximity coupling to use wire antennas with portables that would otherwise overload. That said, I have an XHDATA D-220, which I just got recently, and my 25 ft indoor wire antenna works well with the D-220, and I get no overload. So a lot of it probably depends on one's own location (I'm in a narrow valley, basically a lower signals area). So, for some like me, clipping a short random wire works. But with others, you'd obviously get overload. So, it's really YMMV. I think in a pinch, wrapping the end of a wire antenna, or feedline, around the D-220 would probably do much the same (I think another poster mentioned this method). PS, as for the wire wound resistor, would a junked choke (inductor coil, some which can get fairly large) work also?

I listen to foreign language broadcasts, and use an external microphone and run it through an app '3PO' or 'Google translate' works well. On the 11m band there's a lot of Romanian, Italian, Spanish, Greek and Arabic but strangely enough French is not popular (considering I'm listening from France) i do find it strange...

"Freeband" refers to the popular but illicit operation outside the 40 FCC allocated frequencies. "Freeband" is not the 40 channels that are legal to use.

I like finding and turning in the freebanders. I'm 3 for 3. Lot's of fun.

Yeah, I heard those guys too a few days ago on the 11-meter broadcast band-the Brazilians. They’re CB operators; you can tell from the roger beep. With the solar maximum, they’ll be transmitting from there all the time.

Back in the '90s, I could pick up Deutsche Welle broadcasts on the 11-meter band in Italy and Spain, and the signal was pretty strong. Since I didn’t have a shortwave car radio, I used a CB radio instead, and it worked really well.

Hi Thanks for video that sound at 17:37 at the end is plaguing 10m band also weird data Heard in UK

In Europe you are much more likely to hear freebanders outside of the standard CB band. Some countries have legal CB bands on different frequencies such as the German 40-channels below the “mid” band and the original UK CB channels just below 28MHz. FM is used more in Europe on CB too.

at 18:30 that sounds exactly like a remote monitoring system I had. Basically it is 4 channels of input transmitted to a pager like receiver that illuminates LEDs to indicate a change of state of the inputs. (mine was on 27.095) It is tone code linked to specific receivers so many can be on the same frequency without interference. I monitored an irrigation system with mine.

At 15:20 is a brasilian trucker saying that his final destination is his home but first he is going to unload the truck At 16:00 is another brasilian but can't undestand what he is saying

I’ve just got back into CB after a 30 year absence and New Zealand where I’m from - CB channels are on 26 MHz channels 1- 26.330 to channel 40 - 26.770 Channel 11 - 26.450 Truckie channel is the busiest . But NZ is also using 27 MHz now as well as so many US and Aussie sets are here.

Compleatly missed the underground DX movement calling on 27.555 MHz USB STARTED BY THE Alpha Tango group and still strong today , otherwise very enjoyable,

Very interesting i will have to listen around 11 meter more often.

Very interesting. Have you ever heard the German propaganda broadcast on 26.805 FM mode? It has been on daily for about a year now. Its is sometimes strong in the southwest US during the day. Several people i know have been trying to triangulate the origin of signal.

Be sure to check out the previous "Scanning the Bands" video about the 35 meter band --> ruclips.net/video/IjfCHsq5d7M/видео.html

Instead of using the wwr, using a rheostat of 500 ohm gives better results.

Very interesting, 73

Thank you for your informative observation. The Russian text is "professional" anti-Ukrainian propaganda. The first "interlocutor" is putin himself. He warns of "dangerous Ukrainian nazi propaganda" in the Ukrainian territories occupied by russia. The second "interlocutor" is a russian propagandist who boasts of a new block of flats recently erected by russians in the Ukrainian city of Mariupol after the russian troops had flattened it out.

Great viseo. But the volume is very low...

Get rid of fm 2 and add a sw1 and sw2. It is fun to use.

I have placed an order for orange color one to be a little poppy 😂

I have always just get as much wire as high as I can.

Hi, what antenna do you use please

I have a cheap useless hrd 737, I noticed that power bars, cell phone, create interference, long wire aligater clips dont help, tired copper wire ( electrical co axle copper, and thin instrument copper wire ) no help.. But, connecting a clip from the antenna to co a cable jack....did improve reception.. Basically, the only way arround this, is dont buy cheap SW radios... I like the portable element, walking the dog, at night.

Attach a loop or wire and it will come alive.

very interesting band... ive heard alot of strange things on it over the years..

A lot of those digital signals are from city utilities and signals for trash pump stations.Its good skip sometimes to pick them up

Thanks for this tutorial! I didn't know that on-line SDRs had decoder software built in to them for Fax and other digital modes!

hickups???

13:04 a lot of beacons like the ones at this timestamp I used as channel markers, RDF references, propagation prediction and testing tools, navigation tools, and many other uses.

Great series so far, looking forward to more as a new subscriber.

I have heard the east coast 1710 kHz station you referenced (from here in Virginia)

Using the Kiwi SDR as shown, click on the box Extension, there are several drop down options to decode many of the modes in this video, NAVTEC, HFFAX, HFDL etc...

Great video. I have been watching this entire series.

Great video…. Would love to see more like this

👍

thanks for the info, I just heard Indonesians and Filipinos and the digital stuff but very active from 8000-9000 in VK6

The single letter CW beacons were/ are used by the Soviet/Russian Navy for navigation purposes.

The 10 metre ham band ends at 29.700 Mhz not 30 Mhz.

Maritime. Australia maritime weather 8113khz.

New subscriber here! Great video

XSL or the Slot Machine is said to be Japanese Navy. It is a HF radio modem network that occupies quite a few frequencies simultaneously. What you showed in your example is the system in it's idle state and not passing traffic. If you listen for a while, you will hear it change state when passing traffic with a characteristic whooshing sound, then back to idle. All traffic will most certainly be encrypted.
