DRM - RECEPTION WITH MORPHY RICHARDS.
I have been trying out the DRM shortwave after been given a Morphy
Richards receiver for Christmas. Mainly I have been listening to Deutsche
Welle programs in stereo, on 13590, 13810 and 3995 kHz.
I have also heard Ministry of Information from Kuwait on 13620. Voice of
Russia has also bought pleasing results and audio quality. I tuned them at
0800 on 11615 and at 1500 on 5905 via Taldom with 40 kW. Data shown on VOR
transmissions indicated that this was a test transmission from Talsom
[their typo or yours? Hey, another advantage of DRM - typos! gh], and
mentioned QSL e-mail address and also transmitter site address at Taldom.
The audio quality is excellent when the signal is there, but during
periods of rough reception, there are dropouts. I very much enjoy
listening to international programming and music in high quality audio,
but passion remains with analog.
