Comments:
Just a limited effort to garner some points for the club and play with a new
Apache Labs ANAN-100D SDR. It's hard for me to put in much chair time in a ssb
contest. Conditions on the high bands seemed quite good accompanied by
universally wide signals with high IMD. That's the one down side of using
panadapters - you see clearly how bad most of the signals are.
Was happy to see the 10Q rate get up to 400 and stay there for a while, which
was a first. The DDC/DUC SDR receiver was exceptionally clean and helped sort
out the pileups and the garbage on the bands.
I played with making some HD screen capture videos with stereo diversity audio
and will try to post them to YouTube at http://goo.gl/6VAlR6
Here in the northeast, we were plagued by wideband interference 28.6-28.9MHz
that pulsed slowly on and off - here's a panadapter picture of it:
