The DoubleTree hotel where the Winter SWL Fest is held.<\/p><\/div>\n

Last week, I attended the 31st annual Winter SWL Fest in Plymouth Meeting, Pennsylvania. This was the ninth year in a row I made the pilgrimage to join my radio friends and family–it was certainly a \u2018Fest to be remembered!<\/p>\n

I made the trip by car, leaving Monday, February 26 and spent two nights in the DC area so that I could visit friends.<\/p>\n

On Tuesday, I met with my buddy (and SWLing Post<\/em> contributor) Dan Robinson and we headed over to the National Capital Radio and Television Museum in Bowie, MD<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>

The NCRTV Museum.<\/p><\/div>\n

NCRTV’s Brian Belanger gave us an excellent private tour of the museum, allowing me an opportunity to snap even more photos of this beautiful museum (you might recall the photo tour I posted in 2015<\/a>). I will plan to post the new photos soon.<\/p>\n

Wednesday morning, I picked up my friend Mark Fahey (also an SWLing Post<\/em> contributor) at a Metro stop in Maryland. Mark had just flown into DC from Sydney, Australia, the previous day.<\/p>\n

Knowing Mark is a huge fan of all things aviation, we made our way to the Steven F. Udvar-Hazy Center<\/a> at Dulles Airport. This was my fourth visit to the museum, but Mark\u2019s first. He had a blast and, like me, is sure to return in the future!<\/p>\n

We left the museum by 2:00, to avoid serious DC traffic, and arrived in Plymouth Meeting, PA by dinner time.<\/p>\n

Like last year, the Winter SWL Fest took place over a Thursday, Friday and Saturday. The schedule was jam-packed and covered the full spectrum of radio.<\/p>\n

Here’s the program with descriptions:<\/p>\n

THE IBERIAN BROADCASTING SCENE with Tracy Wood<\/p><\/div>\n

1300 \u2013 THE IBERIAN BROADCASTING SCENE \u2013 Tracy Wood<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

Our own \u201cfiestero\u201d reflects on his trips to Spain, Portugal and Gibraltar experiencing the complicated radio scene there. From longwave to DAB, community radio to big national networks\u2013even foreign language FM stations\u2013it\u2019s true that the Spanish dial remains impressive. Included are slides from his tour and interview at Madrid\u2019s Radio Exterior de Espa\u00f1a highlighting their amazing audio vault. He\u2019ll also reflect on DX climbs at the Rock of Gibraltar (UK) and Veleta, the third highest peak in Spain (11,142\u2019). Bring your own sangr\u00eda.<\/em><\/p>\n

1415 \u2014 MORE CHEAP FUN WITH RTL\/SDR \u2013 Dan Srebnick<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

Dan follows up last year\u2019s presentation by telling you what he got wrong. (!?)<\/em><\/p>\n

You CAN decode FM IBOC, thanks to a researcher who figured out the protocol. We\u2019ll hear how that works, along with a look at how to decode amateur APRS packet and display weather alerts on a map, and how to decode NextGen ATC on the cheap, without having to feed data to Flight Aware. We\u2019ll also give you some ideas on how to make use of a Raspberry Pi with the RTL stick, providing yet another source of cheap radio fun.<\/em><\/p>\n

1530 \u2014 THE GOLDEN AGE OF ANALOG TV DXING\u2026IS NOW! \u2014 Rich McVicar<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

TV DXing via sporadic e-skip and tropospheric propagation, from an historical perspective in the 50s-80s when there were many analog DX targets available in North Americ, to today\u2019s low VHF (Channels 2-6) scenario. Few US stations are using those channels now making DOUBLE-hop e-skip reception possible, something very few experienced before 2009 but a number of us in the northeast US and Canada have observed quite a few times now. Instead of new states and provinces, we\u2019re logging new countries! Includes video clips of single hop vs. double hop and equipment and technique tips.<\/em><\/p>\n

MORE CHEAP FUN WITH RTL\/SDR with Dan Srebnick<\/p><\/div>\n

1645 \u2013 TERMINATED LOOP ANTENNAS \u2013 Jef Eichner<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

This popular series resumes with Jef covering terminated loop theory and construction, along with some new (and old) toys for show and tell. Time permitting, he will start on loop phasing techniques.<\/em><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

2030 \u2013 THE 1st ANNUAL? WINTERFEST TRIVIA QUIZ \u2013 Sheldon Harvey<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

How well do you know radio? AM, shortwave, utilities, transmitter sites, station names, call letters, frequencies, interval signals, radio personalities, program names, and more, we\u2019ll have questions from all categories. In the end we will crown the first Winterfest Trivia King (or Queen!). The quiz is open to anyone with the courage to participate.<\/em><\/p>\n

Friday, 2 March 2018<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

0830 \u2013 HOW DO SMART SPEAKERS CHANGE YOUR LISTENING HABITS? \u2013 Rob deSantos<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

We will examine the impact of \u201csmart speakers\u201d on the listening experience. What can you do and what can\u2019t you do with these systems? The internet radio and international radio still live but they live inside the speaker. Bring your own personal experience and questions to share. Included will be the presenter\u2019s personal use and testing of systems such as Amazon Alexa and Sonos and compare the cost and benefits to using these as alternative listening sources as well as their limitations.<\/em><\/p>\n

0945 \u2013 THE ANNUAL SCANNER SESSION \u2013 Tom Swisher<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

Back to Basics \u2013 Programming Strategies for the new generation scanners. Have the newer generation scanners got you stumped? This year we\u2019re going back to basics, and will discuss programming strategies, tweaks and tips for the newer digital-capable scanners. We\u2019ll also give a few nods to some of the software packages out there that can make this task easier.<\/em><\/p>\n

1100 \u2013 THE ANNUAL PIRATE SESSION \u2013 George Zeller<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

A review of Pirate Radio news during the past year and the announcement of the new class of inductees to the North American Pirate Radio Hall of Fame. Time permitting, a discussion of the NASWA Pirate Radio Report column also is planned.<\/em><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>

It’s quite a coincidence every year that the ‘Fest hotel is chock-full of pirate radio broadcasts. If one were to know such things… (Note I had to illuminate this flyer with a flashlight!)<\/p><\/div>\n

1330 \u2013 TIME SHIFTED TUNING WITH SPECTRUM ARCHIVES \u2013 Thomas Witherspoon<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

We will take a look at both shortwave radio audio archives, what has been done since our 2010 Winter SWL Fest forum, and what collections have been preserved. We will also dive into the concept of radio spectrum archiving, noting the challenges and amazing benefits to future historians, media specialists, anthropologists and\u2014yes\u2013radio enthusiasts too. Imagine a digital library full of recordings you could load on a web-based application and tune through as if it were live radio\u2013a time traveling WebSDR! We\u2019ll live demo spectrum recordings dating back to 1986.<\/em><\/p>\n

An experimental documentary film by Amanda Dawn Christie about the RCI shortwave radio towers in Sackville, New Brunswick, Canada. Images captured on film are accompanied by personal stories told by people who lived near the towers. For over 67 years, the Radio Canada International (RCI) shortwave site broadcast all over the world. In 2012, budget cuts necessitated the decommissioning of this site.<\/em><\/p>\n

1945 \u2013 THE DXER\u2019S SAMPLER MENU \u2013 ONE HOUR, FOUR IRRESISTIBLE SENSATIONS \u2013 Mark Fahey<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

This session presents four appetizer sized topics (each which could easily have consumed a full hour of discussion) in convenient, portion controlled sizes.<\/em><\/p>\n

Transformation of Marginal & Noisy Tropical-Band Stations into Armchair Quality Reception: A live demonstration of real-time digital enhancement and filtering of shortwave signals.<\/em><\/p>\n

Interval Signals from the Jungles and Volcanoes: For over 40 years I have been recording Indonesian interval signals and now the collection is complete. These are not noisy, low-fi recordings; every one is a pristine, studio-quality recording that reflects the exotic location and unique culture of each station.<\/em><\/p>\n

What\u2019s Happening in The Studio: Thousands of radio stations now continuously stream high-definition video of their studios in simulcast to their audio broadcast. We will drop in and discover what is happening behind the microphones.<\/em><\/p>\n

Radio Soundscapes: Let\u2019s explore the growing selection of what hipsters and eclectic music collectors are listening to.<\/em><\/p>\n

2130 \u2013 THE ANNUAL SHORTWAVE SHINDIG \u2013 David Goren<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

David Goren and friends celebrate the short wavelengths in story, song, and vintage sounds. Saul Broudy, our resident folk song laureate presents an extended set of radio favorites and more. Interdisciplinary artist Amanda Dawn Christie performs using her theremin to trigger sounds and images of the towers at RCI Sackville.<\/em><\/p>\n

Later in the evening, we\u2019ll feature a specially upconverted segment on FM Urban Pirate Radio including the debut of the Brooklyn Pirate Radio Sound Map.<\/em><\/p>\n

Saturday, 3 March 2018<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

0830 \u2013 THE VERY STRANGE WORLD OF VHF & UHF MILITARY SATELLITES \u2013 Matt Blaze<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

Most modern satellites are on SHF frequencies, are used for high-bandwidth, global communication, and require special antennas and equipment to receive and track. But there are also constellations of satellites operating on VHF and UHF frequencies, easily received with standard communications receivers and antennas, and what you can hear on them can be very surprising. Originally intended for tactical military use, these birds are largely dominated by pirates, unintended signals, and the occasional legitimate user.<\/em><\/p>\n

0945 \u2013 TRAVEL THE WORLD WITH VIRTUAL DXPEDITIONS \u2013 Bruce Churchill<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

For many of us Shortwave DXing has become more a reminiscing than a listening exercise. Oh, if we could only reprise the ubiquitous Indonesians, Venezuelans, Ecuadorians, Brazilians and Indian regionals! Into this seeming abyss comes the world of remote receivers such as the Perseus, Global Tuner and KiwiSDR networks. In this session we\u2019ll educate, discuss and debate the merits of traveling to virtual DXpeditions through the use of remote receivers around the globe.<\/em><\/p>\n

1100 \u2013 RF OPS AT WORLD EVENTS \u2013 Paul Kaltenbach<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

Take a behind-the-scenes look at network news RF\/field operations covering some of the largest stories that have made world headlines in recent memory, as well as a discussion regarding the technological changes that have changed the definition of what real-news is, and is not.<\/em><\/p>\n

1330 \u2013 VOICE OF RFCHOKIA SHORTWAVE TV ROLL OUT \u2013 Jeff Murray<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

Introducing VOR\u2019s 2018 North American Short Wave Television Service including a virtually live, slow scan slideshow broadcast direct from Rfchokia \u2013 the apocryphal breakaway republic formerly known as South Pottsylvania. This very special event will be emceed and produced by VOR spokesman\/ cartoonist Jeff K1NSS\/WPE2GEP, eager to wish Best DX to you and your family.<\/em><\/p>\n

1500 \u2013 SHORTWAVE MEMORIES \u2013 Dan Robinson\/Skip Arey<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

Dan and Skip chronicle the personal memories of Fest attendees about what shortwave has meant to them throughout their lives, putting some needed focus on the human side, rather than the more commonly heard mechanical or technical aspects, of the hobby.<\/em><\/p>\n

Silent Auction<\/h2>\n

Each year at the Winter SWL Fest, we hold a silent auction with a wide array of donated goods. I donated a box full of gear myself.\u00a0 All of the proceeds are given to charities–Ears To Our World<\/a> has been a proud recipient of portions of the Silent Auction proceeds since I first attended in 2009!<\/p>\n

Here are a few of the items that were in the silent auction:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a> \"\"<\/a> \"\"<\/a> \"\"<\/a> \"\"<\/a> \"\"<\/a> \"\"<\/a> \"\"<\/a> \"\"<\/a> \"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Nor’easter and power outage<\/h2>\n

Of course, what everyone at the 2018 Winter SWL Fest will remember is that Friday morning, we were hit by a “nor’easter”–a storm with strong winds, and driving rain that by noon had turned to snow. Traffic outside the hotel was an absolute mess–and quite treacherous.<\/p>\n

It was a little crazy. Right around 2:30–only a minute after my presentation ended, the mains\/grid power flickered out.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>

The hotel staff kept everyone informed with news posts like this one.<\/p><\/div>\n

Fortunately, the hotel’s backup generator did power one set of outlets\u00a0in the conference room\u00a0which fed the projector and amplified speakers, so the show continued…<\/span>albeit\u00a0in the dark!<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Of course, there are advantages to being in a hotel with little power and much less RF noise–I was able to do some satisfactory MW DXing from my room window. A rare opportunity!<\/p>\n

We held the Saturday night banquet in the hotel’s atrium area which was was better lit that the interior conference rooms. It was a very memorable banquet.<\/p>\n

All-in-all, the Fest was a massive success. I heard very<\/em> few complaints about the power outage, only praise for the forums, our guest speaker (Amanda Dawn Christie) and all of those who make the Fest a reality–especially John Figliozzi and Richard Cuff.<\/p>\n

If you couldn’t make the Fest this year due to your schedule (or the weather!), please come next year. I promise, you won’t regret it! Dates for the 2019 Fest have already been posted<\/a>!<\/p>\n
