For DRM experimenters, the DW transmission using DRM on 3995 kHz is
coming in fabulously here in Detroit at 0300 UTC on 27-Dec-2005 with
no dropouts and excellent fidelity.

It's too bad that their DRM transmissions wreak such havoc with the
hams trying to operate in the 80 meter ham band!

Your idiotic third grade "sloganeering" isn't going to make DRM go
away. Responding to every DRM post with "DRM = QRM" just makes you
appear annoying and foolish, it doesn't add anything to the
discussion. Grow up.

Shortwave DX'ers have always had to struggle agains QRN from the
USSR's "woodpecker", the RTTY news services etc. DRM is no better
and no worse than any of these noises.

The technology is very interesting and it does provide superb fidelity
over shortwave in a very technologically cool way. Whether it will
ever become viable is open to question due to the unpredictablility of
shortwave propagation and the enormous real estate needed for
shortwave transmitters.

Stuff a sock in it, Einstein.

No, bad operating practice is QRM, If DW broadcasts DRM on a frequency that
is legal for them to broadcast on, then hams trying to operate over it
are at fault. The 80m ham band ends at 3850kHz in most of the world.

The trouble with being a futurist is that when people get around to believing
you, it's too late. We lost. Google 2,000,000:Hams 0.

But not here and their signal propagates VERY well here. I'd almost say that they
are in violation of the rules in that regard.

At any rate, a stupid method of transmission that renders 10 kHz unusable is not
a very good idea!
