WEB SDR

At the September meeting John Sommerville MW0XHO gave a very interesting and in-depth talk about the Web SDR. A very different looking radio to the standard, all whistles and bells version we have got used to in recent years. To start with nothing unusual in the fact that it was digital, however all the adjustment were carried out on the computer, be it desk top or lap top and the number of filters was unbelievable. In his demonstration John was about to isolate everything other than the station he required. Although a wire antenna was run outside the building, the radio was only demonstrated in RX mode, to say it was very impressive would be an understatement.

CORRESPONDENCE

The only correspondence received has been a reminder from the RSGB relating to the National Hamfest, on 2 and 3 October. As this date has past it is pointless publishing the e-mail

CVARC WEB SITE

Iain our web master has sent his apologies regarding the October meeting. Some of you may be aware that he acts as a Safety Radio official for a number car rallies and he has at short notice been asked to go to
the Isle of Mull to assist in Radio coverage for the Mull Car Rally. This also means that the web will not be update until his return.
Just a reminder of the web address.
