BIG SUNSPOT ALERT: A sunspot complex more than 500,000 km wide is crossing the solar disk and crackling with solar flares. In the past 24 hours alone there has been one near-X flare and a half-a-dozen shortwave radio blackouts. This sets the stage for a week of potentially high solar activity. Full Story @ Spaceweather.com.

There are 3 other MW repeaters to move to FM as well in BC: Mackenzie, Merritt and Stewart. These should happen this year.

I read that Steve Whitt wonders if radio TPOT would broadcast in stereo.
Well, with a mono receiver. that won’t work.
Yes, with a kiwi sdr, for example this one http://94.212.77.133:8073/
Then Steve can see for himself, when he zooms in on the waterfall, that the pillot tone is there.
I would like to know where he received us?

Radio Teapot question.
Just heard this station on 918kHz saying it is in AM stereo. Anyone know if that is actually true?
I studied the audio spectrum and could not find any 25Hz pilot tone

It’s Radio T-Pot. A search says that they use C-QUAM Stereo.
