�tf-8?q?A NEW DXER'S TOOL - A UNIVERSAL TRANSLATOR �tf-8?qC3€ LA STAR TREK!  View Printable Version 
Sunday, April 24 2022

HCDX


Very, very interesting Bill. thanks for this.

I would be interested in trying it and seeing what might be done to
allow for not using the computer microphone to handle the translating.

A few thoughts. If you had as I do, the "What you hear" option in the
recording tab of the sound control panel and selected that instead of
the computer mic, that might input the speaker audio to the translator.
I've also got VAC here so I might be able to somehow route the audio
that way, but the first way is easier.

Where do you get this Bill? Is is a web site or some Google app that you
install and use with Chrome?

I just tried the "What you hear" option on my sound control panel
recording control app and it works perfectly. Speaker audio tight into
the Translate app. You click the mic icon on Translate and it hears the
speaker.

If you are missing this option on your recording tab, it may be that the
OEM sound card drivers do not have it. I've used actual sound card
manufacturer drivers in the past to gain this function back. And VAC
(virtual audio cables) would certainly work too.

But the first is a lot easier.

Thanks for sharing this Bill :)

�tf-8?q?A NEW DXER'S TOOL - A UNIVERSAL TRANSLATOR �tf-8?qC3€ LA STAR TREK!  View Printable Version 
Saturday, April 23 2022

HCDX


A NEW DXER'S TOOL - A UNIVERSAL TRANSLATOR À LA STAR TREK!

Although not perfect, Google's Voice Translator tool can be a great
addition to a DXer's tool box. (Emphasis on CAN BE.)

It is NOT perfect but it works very well, if the languages in question
are in the database and if the audio is clear enough. I have used it to
identify stations I have heard and  figure out the content of a program
to gather program details for reception reports.

There are some quirks in using it that can be annoying. But there are
workarounds.

Basically, it listens to the audio through the computer's microphone and
takes the speaker's words and types them on the screen in the speaker's
language. Google's translator instantaneously translate the words in the
target language. Besides using it live, I have recorded the audio of my
DX catches and played the recordings back through the computer that way.

It is fairly simple to use. You just figure out the language of the
speaker and put it in the left hand side, and enter the target language
on the right hand side. Then just click on the microphone on the left box.

I have not figured out a way to do this without using the computer's
microphone (i.e. line-out to line-in, or in the computer internally.)  I
imagine that someone could experiment and figure out ways to do this.
Also, I have found it does not work at all with Firefox, but it does
work with Chrome and Microsoft Edge.  I imagine there is some
proprietary business going on,

REMEMBER, this is not a panacea, nor does it work in ALL instances, but
it works well in enough cases to be another tool in a DXer's Tool Box.
And while not as efficient as the Universal Translator in the Star Trek
Canon, it is one like the one used there albeit at an embryonic stage.

Below is an example of how this works.  Of course, the translation is
not perfect, but there are enough clues to let you know that this is
likely from Family Radio and there are some reception details that you
can dig out to use for a reception report.  I have used it with Spanish,
Portuguese, French, German, Russian, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, and a
few others with good success. (I would advise cautionl when writing
reception reports with this, because the translations are not 100%
accurate. To be as sure as possible with what you put in your reception
report, remember that web searches such as DuckGoDuck, Bing, and Google
are your friends.)
