Thanks Guy for the detailed description, you have answered my question very
well.
I would love to have a Perseus receiver here in Austin, Texas, the Mexican
stations just roll in on many channels, but at this time a little out of the
budget...LOL!!
The demo will have to do the job for now and listen to files that other
DXers have and just drool from the mouth...LOL!

Hi James,
These large files are not typical audio recordings. They are specialized WAV
files with encoding that represents a large swath of RF bandwidth. In this
case, the files contain the medium wave band as heard by Dave Aichelman when
he was visiting Hawaii with his Perseus SDR and antennas. It requires
Perseus software (such as the demo mentioned by Sylvain Naud) or the free
HDSDR software.
Once loaded and playing back in the host program you can tune around the
band, apply filtering and modes, change AGC, passband tuning, etc. just like
you can in "real time" with the receiver. The entire band is there for you
to explore, and with WAV files recorded in a far away place you can
experience what the band sounds like as you explore the many stations.
It is this recording capability for the entire band that is the #1 feature
of a good SDR like Perseus.
My Mediafire.com file storage account has quite a few similar recordings
made by Perseus owners from around the world.
