Hello friends,

Our experiment last weekend with MFSK64 images on center audio frequencies of 1500 versus 1000 Hz resulted in more interference lines on the 1000 Hz images. The second audio harmonic at 1000 to 3000 Hz overlapping the fundamental at 500 to 1500 Hz may be the cause. See some examples at

YouTube videos of last weekend's VOA Radiogram, kindly contributed by listeners, are here:

VOA Radiogram this weekend will include news about international media from VOA's "sister" broadcasters Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty (RFE/RL) and Radio Free Asia (RFA).

Here is the lineup for VOA Radiogram, program 37, 14-15 December 2013:

   1:31  MFSK16: Program preview (2:32)
 4:03  MFSK32: DDoS attack on RFE/RL, with image (3:50)

26:57  MFSK32: Closing announcements (:40)

Please send reception reports to >.

Screenshots and audio samples are also appreciated. Audio of reception in the presence of interference from other shortwave broadcast stations or from local noise sources is especially helpful.
