2024 June 9 - Air Check of Transoceanic Air Traffic on 8Mhz

Gander Radio handles the "over the pole" traffic in addition to the North Atlantic traffic out to 30W. This is one of the radio services heard in this air-check video.

Note in the video how up to four receivers are selected for simultaneous monitoring, all in the 8-MHz Aeronautical subband on HF (shortwave). Each has its own squelch, and so on. As the video plays, you can see me make various adjustments.

Video was of 07:09 UTC onwards, on June 9, 2024 (UTC date). Rig is an Icom IC-7610, and the receiving antenna is a 160-meter doublet up at about 80 feet above ground.
