FM Video Bandscan

This is a sample of the pick of the continental DX received here today on band 2. My receiver is a Sony XDR-F1HD with the Konrad i2c modification, controlled by the GTK software. I used this with a Triax FM5, at five metres above the ground, beamed in a south-easterly direction.


Reception is via aircraft scatter, but you will hear a few meteor pings here and there.

I typed the name of each station and the transmitter site at the bottom of the window in dark red. Being familiar with the band here I can say with certainty what each station was, but I was lucky with IDs today so there are plenty to hear.

Conditions were variable, as they usually are here, but about average for the time of year.

Good DX!

John
