[IRCA] SDR-14 remote update



I've been working on setting up the SDR-14 so it can be accessed remotely.
Right now it's set up in New Bedford at the WNBH-1340 transmitter site.
Just a simple antenna for the moment, a ferrite loop on a tripod sitting on
the workbench.  It's turned to null the tower (15m/50' away).  There's also
a notch filter and this has brought 1340 down to equal levels with the 1420
station a mile away.  I could hear stuff on 1360 last night.

So far the SDR server program has produced only very choppy and unusable
audio.  I have been able to run it by using the regular Spectravue program
through PCAnywhere.  Audio is delivered by a streaming audio encoder.

For a simple inside loop, results from that site have been *very*
interesting.  SS on about every channel from 530 to 820, including way over
WABC-770 and WOR-710 and under/over CKAC-730 among others.  The loop is
nulling NYC as well as the local tower, it seems.

I'm working with some people to try to resolve the audio and control glitch.
If it can be made to work, this could be a real bonus.  Picture one
permanently at Grayland or Newfoundland...
