Re: [IRCA] PL-360?

I have two PL-606 receivers.  With the bandwidth set to six I'd say they're closer to five kiloHertz.  It is slightly narrower than the PL-310 when it's set to six.  I 
hardly ever listen with the PL-310 or PL-606 set at six, normally three or less.

Richard.

 Hi Richard,

I've noticed that my PL-606's "6" kHz bandwidth is actually more like a "4".  If I tune 5 or more kHz off in that setting I get the distorted off-tune audio, and the 
signal strength "dBµ" meter drops off much more than it would if I was still within the bandwidth.  Also when viewing a recording of a station in a computer editing 
program on a graph (one that shows dB on the vertical axis and Hz on the horizontal axis - what kind of graph is that?) there is very little if any energy much 
above 4 kHz, even on non-IBOC stations that I know (using other wider-bandwidth radios) broadcast out to 10 kHz or more.  (In spite of this, it's not a particularly 
sharp / total cutoff above the bandwidth - I have to go down to the 1 kHz (or maybe 2 kHz) setting before the top piano notes (around 4 kHz) in music that has 
piano on my local Family Radio religious station are inaudible, although at 2 or 3 kHz they are much weaker than in the 6 - i mean 4 kHz
 bandwidth.)  Does yours behave like that too, or is it just mine?

73,
Stephen
