.. the noise is everything why you're not measuring the noise floor?
A very good day my name is Callum from DX Commander and I just think is
everybody's duty would be able to well shout from the rooftops about
something so give me an outlet and then an analogy that's the right word take
say 900 megahertz from 900 and let's say 900 one makers from 901 minutes to nine
hundred and thirty megahertz is just a bit of the UHF spectrum there's not a
lot in comparison you go up to five thousand megahertz five gigahertz and
people an industry have found applications for using everything from
VHF right up to gigahertz however one to thirty megahertz Easter yes that's 29
megahertz wide right it's the whole of the short wave spectrum everything
that's all we've got now is you know I'm not really a ranter I don't I don't
believe it nearly 60 years old next week that what I say can make any difference
to how the world operates really however my voice in conjunction with many many
others might because the straw can break the camel's back if you know what I mean
so I won't talk about the noise floor the noise floor on HF and it's the noise
floor because the world's industries are making and producing pieces of equipment
they're getting into everybody's electrical supply which is causing hash
and noise on the shortwave bands now I have a short wave receiver AM receiver
in my car because have Mercedes and I guess
Mercedes decide it's important everybody that's a shortwave receiver
it's an old Mercedes about 12 years old and I quite like listening to short life
I put it on scan it only goes from about 5.8 to 6.2
what's that they've 45 meter bound 46 I don't know there'll be a shortwave fan
just for that unfortunately over the last few years I haven't been able to
listen to my shortwave in my car because every time I notice now and I've worked
out what it is every time I go under a populated area that has got telegraph
poles with wires going across them my a.m. receiver just goes into hash I'll
see if I can dig it out on my dashcam I drove down Station Road the other day
and it was unbearable Station Road that's in no Solihull West Midlands
United Kingdom planet Earth eastern sector fourth quadrant
anyway
music
so now isn't this a tragedy this happens to be it's not a Chinese manufacturer of
a of some little transform you plug into the wall or a little some fairy lights
that Wendy's bought there if you remember clouded me out last year
sometime to attract it down this is a corporation there's effectively being
allowed to just blast shortwave with interference now I don't live next door
to one of these telegraph poles and it wasn't just the odd one I'm talking
every line that I go under certainly in my town has got this terrible ash
now the RSG be did a great study hard and if I could find it and they document
it put a loop on it they put an aerial on this car roof with his Woody's fancy
receivers and did a plot they drove around you know some town they did a
plot on noise floor basically and how sometimes noise floors up to here
sometimes it was not as bad but if we've got a seventy five thousand active hobby
scientists in the UK that's amateur radio it'll get to the point where we
can't be a hobby scientist and by the way before people go you you're old hat
you don't need shortwave anymore well no we don't need shortwave but it is a
science and it's leapfrogging from that science into other sciences is one of
the reasons that i created DX commander for instance which is a real little
business i'm not as big as british telecom or bt or Openreach as they like
to call themselves or AT&T or any these huge corporations but it's still science
I got into mechanical science because of RF sighs I've got into all sorts of
science-based things because of that we go back 20 years I think something like
90% of the design engineers at Nokia wear Nike it was a big company well how
much are you up rages heavens lots of astronauts amateur
radio operators they're science-based and a hobby activity whatever aspects of
gaius morning on the phone Chuck called Mike who was an electronics engineer
going to management and ran a big Philips factory plants all mechanical
stuff CNC machines and everything he's been retired 15 years now he happens to
like the DX come on occurs a bit simplicity in everything else but and
he's reinventing science he's getting back into to science if we don't keep
our minds saying what's gonna happen and I just astonished that as a government
as companies and this body here Ofcom I've just got on the screen I'll show
you the minute they did some tests and and they basically told the they went to
three houses of people who were complaining of this terrible hash and
the guys from Ofcom Bay see we're saying yeah we don't measure noise floor you
know we don't measure the noise floor well for hours noise floor is everything
noise floor in audio equipment is everything noise floor and everything is
everything why you're not measuring the noise floor a weaker did set it if you
read the whole thing we could detect at some some Twitter as some SSB signals on
20 meters so he hasn't got a problem yeah well I can detect 20 meter signals
as well I'm sure I'm sitting under a VDSL high
performance Internet broadband signal but I'll end up being hospitalized after
an hour for God's sake and I'll let you change some of these documents so the RS
chibi the Radio Society of Great Britain made a formal complaint on behalf of
some users and that's why I pay him a forty six quid a year to be honest up to
Rs GB whatever you think of them at least it's a coordinated approach
because if I had complained it off comm I wouldn't even got this far alright to
pay your money and at least defend a hobby where else you gonna spend it with
yeah so Ofcom says you know oh we were asked it says radius
sited Great Britain made complaints to Ofcom and BT Openreach on behalf of its
members blah blah blah blah now right you could read the whole thing I've
scammed I skimmed the whole thing and it's quite detailed and everything else
but this website is peer review it Beatty distills you down Ofcom finds no
evidence for claims of interference from VDSL well if you remember i intrude on
Station Road in Knoll it's clear as bloody mud that they're causing problems
because it's every time I went under the wires that my IM signal was completely
blotted out you know so everybody's got a voice do something I don't know what
to do about it by the way I've got no idea what do you do write to the
Secretary of State I don't know perhaps say in the comments what we should do
I've got no idea this guy here g1x Oh W he's that's his website we're on a think
QR said calm but he's got a redirect on it and I mean he disguises as few me as
the rest of us and he's done really good document it's a bit motional but you
know whatever if you've invested thousands of pounds of equipment and
years of self learning and teaching and so on only to find out that a
corporation can come around the corner with their wires and blow you out the
water it's it's it's kind of not fair actually and I know fair doesn't exist
in this world but we all have to live on it together yeah and I suppose what
really pisses me off with all this is that we've got a bunch of rules as
amateur radio operators that we can't cause interference yet well two things
actually yet it's okay for Ofcom to come along
and sort of BT to come along and off come to defend them going there's no
problem here there is a major problem guys a real major problem and it says
the real threat to that twenty nine megahertz that's all it's only that but
it's the whole of the plumbing shortwave bands you can't even listen to shortwave
it's just just a tragedy and I tell you what one day when everything else fails
they're gonna want shortwave but they're not gonna be able to have it because
British Telecom is just blown it all away anyway he's done some good stuff
there g1x Oh W there is the forum BT community forum going on about as well
people talking about it so what can I say I don't care what you do but you
have to do something okay now my contribution to this is at least
making a video about it I don't know what yours can be puts it down the
comments maybe we'll come up with a coordinated approach maybe if we've got
a legal person on here it's just a nice little paragraph we can send to the
Secretary of State something that we can encourage everybody to do because I'm
not getting anything through the post from the RSG be saying this is a major
threat this is what you should do alright um so I feel I've got to do
something now maybe I've missed a trick I don't know maybe maybe all the
leaflets that I get through the post have been thrown away and you know by
Wendy before I've even got to them and they tell me what I'm supposed to do
about all this interference I've got no idea but you have to do something you
can't just sit here and go yeah it's a big problem is there what do you I
challenge you what are you gonna do about it anyway listen if you want to be
stay involved in this remover to hit the subscribe button and if you like my
stuff friend but he can be a thumbs up if you don't like my sub stuff if you
don't like my stuff remember to give me a thumbs down and I'll see you on the
next time Okay bye for now!
