Congrats to Alex, Ben, Chris, and the rest of the gang... I see the www.AMStereoRadio.com web site has just reached 80,000 hits. In fact, about 30 seconds ago...
... As others have described, I find the sound quality of XM disappointing. I'm not sure if it's any worse than FM, but I wouldn't call it any better - just...
Darwin - and any others interested, diverging momentarily from AMS for 2 minutes: Getting a ham license is quite a bit easier than it was just 3 years ago....
... why ... example, ... that ... so ... Using a 75us de-emphasis with an 8.7KHz shelf I plugged this information into Excel and got the following results: KHz...
... The official NRSC pre-emphasis curve and graph is contained in this file: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/amstereoforum/files/Bts1-2.pdf And here is a...
I recommend the book "All About Ham Radio" (I think?) by Harry Helms (AA6FW). That book is what got me interested in amateur radio. I took and passed the...
That's it, though not entirely. I think the general public has been conditioned over the years to like it as well. Plus, since much of the listening is still...
Would someone care to redesign the output of that transmitter to more of a full 100mW output? I probably can, though design isn't my strongest suit for one,...
Hi Gang- Just to let all know, I will be tied up with lawyers this week, so I will not be answering a lot of email. Hopefully, this situatuion will be done ...

There is a man in Boston at WGBH-FM who runs his "board" really low - on purpose. His voice peaks hit 30 or less. He does this so you can crank the radio so...
Dear Kevin, ... I can hear many Chinese, Taiwanese and Korean stations at night, however, I've never seen that the AM stereo indicator lit. If I live in...
... Have you tried running it in 'carrier current' mode? Simply connect its antenna output directly to the center round pin (Ground) of the AC outlet. This...
My uncle just got a new 2002 Ford Taurus wagon. It doesn't have the Visteon CD-6, but it does have the so-called "Mach" premium audio system, with a large...
... Thanks Kevin and Dennis - you'll both get a tape of 3MP in stereo if that's the way they go. And if it happens I'll be so glad that anyone on the list can...
What is the best way of measuring power to meet FCC regulations for 100mW. The old way was to measure the power going into the final stage i.e supply voltage *...
... Do you know if 4QR on 612 kHz in Brisbane is also Stereo? They are on both AM Stereo station listings (mine and Alex's) as an ABC station. And I would...
... There are two different ways that FCC Part 15 transmitter output limits can be measured. Either you can use the method you describe (input power to final...
Close, but no banana, there, Kev. Part 15 AM antennas that are mounted on top of tall poles get good coverage NOT because of their HAAT. What happens is that...
I guess the goal is to get maximum coverage and still be within the part 15 regulations whichever may you measure it. In theory I guess you could have a really...
... Hi Kevin I joined an Aussie general radio broadcasting ng today and have asked members to advise me of the current status of AMS stations in Oz. I got one...
... BTW, XM and Sirius satellite radio are both USA-only systems. I think that is purposely because in other countries, land-based DAB broadcasting (on a...
People have been parodizing the "You've got questions, We've got answers" slogan for a long time now, but I think I just came across the best one yet: "You've...

Radio Shack discontinued the SRF-42 - the last catalog it was in was the 1999 catalog. I HAVE ASKED BEFORE - but if anyone HAS one of those little clips on the...
I think I remember some discussion that KTNN in Window Rock AZ discontinued AMS. Also, haven't heard any sunday country gospel on KKIN for some time. ST ... ...

You might have to call Sony for the part. If (and this is a big if) I don't forget, I'll post the number tomorrow... Tom ... the 1999 catalog. ... the back of...
... There is a very easy mod to drastically improve FM reception and sound quality on the Sony SRF-42. For details and instructions, see this previously posted...
