INDIA:
23 Feb 10, 1215 UTC, 17590kHz, CVC DRM
ID: CVC Test India; SNR: very poor at 8.5dB; DRM Mode C at 9.18kbps, mono.
No audio recovered, signal just not strong enough for demodulation but solid ID obtained using PC 'Dream' software and unmodified Racal RA1792 (16kHz B/W filter with -6kHz BFO offset in CW mode) with the ALA1530. I will try earlier tomorrow in the hope that propagation is more favourable. I am certain that if this was an analogue signal, I would have had no problems listening to it as it was a decent strength, but obviously not clear enough for digital - such is the price of 'progression'.
