Vatican Radio DRM @ 9800 kHz, 21 Jul 2012

Edit: It's probably transmit spectral masking as opposed to receive intermod.


It looks like the antenna is introducing some intermodulation. I've seen this also in the REE DRM broadcast on 9630 kHz, so I wonder if it's DRM specific intermod, or just intermod due to strong signal, because that's a really strong signal. An antenna with signal gain is pretty helpful.


The intermodulation is more evident here.


Around 20:28 UTC someone accidentally switched the transmitter off or something. In the gap you can see -105 dBm interference.
