Re: LF: 1476 kHz AM

[Markus Vester <markusvester@aol.com>]

Many thanks again also to Rik, Ian, Stefan, Mauro, Ewald for your fine observations and suggestions, both on behalf of Ralph and from myself.  I can say that we are overwhelmed by the number of positive responses.

Yes some type of subaudio ID on the carrier would surely make sense. I had thought of a phase modulation scheme (perhaps similar to the 162 kHz timecode), but at this speed it may have a negative impact on synchroneous AM demodulators which use a PLL to regenerate the carrier. A very slow (several seconds) but characteristic frequency modulation may indeed be the best option.

Best 73,
Markus

The carrier is right now audible and visible on a
battery powered portable SDR (Reuter Pocket)
with just a small active ferrite antenna.
