DRM - Reception logs | Making some tests today... |
---------------
Conclusions for now
- The Netvista Display is also causing noise to the Sony ICF2001D,
on 6095
- My Sony ICF2001D gives much lower SNR compared to the TS440 (by 8
/ 9 dB !)
- The Sony is sensitive to the Thinkpad noise, even when soundcard
wire not connected.

10H30 : RTL 6095, SONY ICF 2001D + IBM Netvista 08H05,
>>
OK but the SNR is quite low (18dB)
