Shortwave in a sentence

While many shortwave stations are calling it quits, a brand new 100kW transmitter began broadcasting its signals across the Pacific this month, and Radio New Zealand has entered a new era of commitment to serving its shortwave listeners.

As the BPL frequencies used overlap with shortwave bands, severe distortions can make listening to analog shortwave radio signals near power lines difficult or impossible.

By 1928, more than half of long distance communications had moved from transoceanic cables and longwave wireless services to shortwave and the overall volume of transoceanic shortwave communications had vastly increased.

Evocations of shortwave reception distortions have been incorporated into rock and classical compositions, by means of delays or feedback loops, equalizers, or even playing shortwave radios as live instruments.

Shortwave listening A pennant sent to overseas listeners by Radio Budapest in the late 1980s main Many hobbyists listen to shortwave broadcasters without operating their own transmitters.

Shortwave radio is used for broadcasting of voice and music to shortwave listeners over very large areas; sometimes entire continents or beyond.

Model guidance has been consistently showing an upper level shortwave trough move down the island chain early next week, then pinch off from the main trough to form a cutoff low south of the state before slowly retrograding westward through the week.

The new satellites promise increase performance in terms of resolution and revisit rates over the company’s existing Gen-2 spacecraft, with additional capabilities such as shortwave infrared imaging and intersatellite links.

Dr Shamuyarira told me that he set up Radio 3 as a political project that was meant to dissuade the Zimbabwean youths from listening to South African radio stations via the shortwave radio signal immediately after independence.

Additionally, amateurs and shortwave listeners can take part from their home QTH (location) in the Festival of Frequency Measurement, a citizen’s science effort to study ionospheric phenomena.

The medium wave (MW) and shortwave (SW) reigned supreme and stations were fewer hence every second of broadcast time counted.

The patent-pending Quantum Stealth material is able to hide a target as well being able to bend in ultraviolet, infrared and shortwave infrared.

While others organize on encrypted apps like Telegram, Lou Tit-Man follows news of the demonstrations on his shortwave radio, one of the few possessions he has managed to keep from thieves, along with a mask picked up after one scuffle.

Almost all modern amateur radio equipment is now a transceiver but there is an active market for pure radio receivers, mainly for shortwave listening (SWL) operators.

Although there were few others involved in FM research at this time, he did have knowledge of a project being conducted by RCA engineers, who were investigating whether FM shortwave transmissions were less susceptible to fading than AM.

Amplitude modulation is the simplest type and the most commonly used for shortwave broadcasting.

AM shortwave broadcasting channels are allocated with a 5 kHz separation for traditional analog audio broadcasting.

A new digital radio technology, Digital Radio Mondiale (DRM), is expected to improve the quality of shortwave audio from very poor to standards comparable to the FM broadcast band.
