Re: [IRCA] Loop Antenna Gain for Rockworks #4 and #2



(Mark's AOL message is pasted below, for those who might have trouble opening it)ÂÂ 
 
<<<ÂÂ Guy, is there any way that the one or two best "knock your socks off" 
top-of-hour Perseus files from the Rockworks DXpedition could be uploaded 
somewhere so DXers can "sit in" on the activities after the fact? 

Same question applies to files from Walter's recent Masset run. 

Back when you hosted the "Five Below" website, Guy, the sharing of capture files from around 
the globe was a regular activity. I got a kick listening to the band from 
places as far flung as Hawaii, Newfoundland, Scandinavia, and the Middle East. 
I saved a few on portable hard drives to play if DX here ever gets too boring. 
I don't see as much of this file access these days. 

Even though these 1 to 2 Gig files can take an hour or more to download, it can sometimes be worth 
it. There have been occasions when DXers in a part of the world closer to 
the weak noisy station on a capture can easily figure out audio that confounds 
the DXer at the locale where the recording was made. It might be the language 
knowledge or that they've heard a jingle or presenter's voice or local reference 
so many times that the ID is a piece of cake for them even if a mystery for 
us.ÂÂ >>>
