- @swradiogram.bsky.social & @popshopradio.bsky.social Wednesday's flags decoded in northern Florida, USA. 1330-1400 UTC on 15770 kHz broadcast over WRMI in Okeechobee, FL.
- @popshopradio.bsky.social My no so speedy reception report for Sunday evening's broadcast on 5950 kHz. Use KiwiSDR in Midwest USA to record and decode the MFSK64 image. This time of year signal drops here in northern Florida, USA enough to make listening a chore. Not as cold here today, -3.33333C!
- @swradiogram.bsky.social Got sidetracked reporting reception from Monday's 0800z broadcast on 5850 kHz. Helped sister-in-law repair broken pipe from freeze in northern Florida, USA. An easy temporary fix to stop leak. Just a couple of trips to hw. store. Got all the flags, here are four faves.
- @swradiogram.bsky.social @popshopradio.bsky.social I'm going to try and keep up with the Saturday broadcast on 9455 kHz and post in groups of four as they happen! BTW, I'm getting quite a collection of province flags in my FLDigi "images" folder :-)
- @swradiogram.bsky.social @popshopradio.bsky.social Group two... Another aside, we expect to hit 0 degrees C (32F) here in northern Florida, USA just 0000 UTC. We usually get a temperature drop like this overnight, not sundown.
- @swradiogram.bsky.social @popshopradio.bsky.social Group three... Great signal here so far with WRMI. Using a W6LVP loop amp with a ~1m loop. I thought the thing was going into self-oscillation but it turns out it seems to be an issue with the type of power supply I use with it.
- @swradiogram.bsky.social @popshopradio.bsky.social Last group.
- @swradiogram.bsky.social & @popshopradio.bsky.social My take-aways from Thursday/Friday 0030-0100 UTC broadcast on 9265 kHz received in northern Florida, USA. A nice solid signal using an active loop antenna with OK2ZI amplifier module. It offers a 5 dB lower noise floor than MLA-30+.
- @swradiogram.bsky.social & @popshopradio.bsky.social I had less success with Wednesday's 2330z repeat broadcast over Channel 292 on 9670 kHz. I switched over to KiwiSDR in French Alps with a strong signal there on 3955 kHz and got these colorful flags decoded.
- @swradiogram.bsky.social and @popshopradio.bsky.social Four images out of the eleven decoded from the 2300z broadcast over Channel 292 received in northern Florida, USA on 9670 kHz. Reveiver: SDRplay RSPdx Antenna: 90' doublet

- @swradiogram.bsky.social Welcome back Kim! Here are my decoded images from Wednesday's broadcast, 1330-1400 UTC on 15770 kHz. Received in northern Florida, USA with a good dose of backscatter and some multipath. All images received <more>
- @swradiogram.bsky.social The next four images received...
- @swradiogram.bsky.social The next four...
- @swradiogram.bsky.social The final two. oops, I forgot to 'flag' Tony @popshopradio.bsky.social on this series of posts ;-) Great job!
- @swradiogram.bsky.social FYI...
- @swradiogram.bsky.social FYI...
- @popshopradio.bsky.social Decent decode, but slightly slanted MFSK64 images from last night's broadcast over WRMI on 5950 kHz. KiwiSDR in Midwest-USA had a good signal! Nice playlist of great songs! Did not know about the Tiny Vinyl release, or that Target was around in 1965!

- @swradiogram.bsky.social Sunday's broadcast on 9955 kHz. Images received in northern Florida, USA. Received using SDRplay RSPdx with SDRconnect software.
- @swradiogram.bsky.social @popshopradio.bsky.social Excellent start of the week's broadcast of Program 434! Wow, that's a lot of flags! Great reception in northern Florida, USA 0030-0100 UTC, 9265 kHz.
- @swradiogram.bsky.social Thought I've give it a try, catching the last broadcast of Program 433's vintage postcards from radio stations. WRMI on 7780 kHz, 0930-1000 UTC. Use KiwiSDR in northern New Zealand to catch these images...
- @swradiogram.bsky.social The final three images from the broadcast received using KiwiSDR in Whenuapai, West Auckland, NZ. Local reception here in northern Florida, USA was a bust. Signal was audible but not enough SNR for FLdigi to do its magic.
- @swradiogram.bsky.social Postcards from the past received in northern Florida, USA during the Wednesday broadcast on 15770 kHz, 1330-1400 UTC. Images 1-4...
- @swradiogram.bsky.social Images 5-8 from that broadcast...
- @swradiogram.bsky.social Having some fun with (W)SUN and this Radio Broadcast. Images 9 and 10 from the penultimate broadcast of Program 433. BTW, a wicked good signal up at KiwiSDR in upper MA exemplified by the FCC Monitoring Station image in MFSK32!
- @swradiogram.bsky.social Not the greatest reception of WRMI in northern Florida, USA last night, but they got 5850 kHz back on air in plenty of time for this broadcast. Cold weather knocked out power at their Okeechobee transmitter site.
- @swradiogram.bsky.social All images received in northern Florida, USA during Sunday's 1530-1600 UTC broadcast on 9955 kHz. Strong signal here from WRMI with SDR# showing +60dB RF SNR. But during MFSK64 text mode FLdigi was only showing +4 dB SNR. Not many artifacts of WRMI audio processing showing.
- @swradiogram.bsky.social Saturday, WRMI's signal on 9455 kHz started out very strong, +70dB SNR on SDR#, but fell off some producing images with sparkles and noise.
- @swradiogram.bsky.social Images decoded in northern Florida, USA during the Thursday/Friday broadcast over WINB, 0030-0100 UTC, 9265 kHz. First group of images...
- @swradiogram.bsky.social Next group decoded, one missed...
- @swradiogram.bsky.social Final image: painting of the week, "Radio Broadcast." WINB's signal was up and down with fades. Text got scrambled at times, but was about 90% accurate.

- @swradiogram.bsky.social Decoded image results from Sunday's broadcast on 9955 kHz as received in northern Florida, USA. Good signal here from WRMI.

- @swradiogram.bsky.social Friday's Birthday Radiogram received using KiwiSDR in Melbourne, FL, located about 50mi NE of WRMI. More distant SDRs did not have a signal. No DX Headlines this week, Eric inserted a station ID in Olivia64-2k.
- @swradiogram.bsky.social The first set of images decoded in northern Florida, USA from WINB during Friday's 0030-0100 UTC broadcast. <more>
- @swradiogram.bsky.social Oops, overlooked the first image sent (snowfall, Istanbul). OK, back to the next three sent...
- @swradiogram.bsky.social Final four. It looks like signal picked up here during the last three images. WINB's signal here is showing a +70dB of SNR in SDR#.
- @popshopradio.bsky.social I enjoyed listening to the New Year's World Tour program. I used the KiwiSDR in MA/CT for reception, but from the looks of it the signal up there was somewhat low.
- @swradiogram.bsky.social Four of the eight images decoded in northern Florida, USA during Monday's 0800-0830 UTC broadcast on 5850 kHz.
- @swradiogram.bsky.social A very high RF SNR receiving WRMI in northern Florida, USA gave me some very high quality image decodes! <more>
- @swradiogram.bsky.social We got a good soaking rain storm in the midst of the broadcast, but that didn't seem to effect the decoding much. <more>
- @swradiogram.bsky.social The last group of images. The THOR22 message arrived in excellent condition.
