WTWW doubly reactivated on the 9s  View Printable Version 
Sunday, September 01 2024

HCDX
Also, it is obvious to us that some stations with ``very expensive commercial transmitters`` do NOT achieve accuracy in frequencies - because the humans operating them do not make sure of that. Glenn

I am interested in the now prevalent quoting of received frequencies to 3 decimal places, which is rather useless. The logger is assuming their cheap SDR is more accurate than the output of a very expensive commercial transmitter. Just because it is possible with SDR software does not make it of merit.
