[CW]

Anyone in need of Motorola CQUAM exciter and monitor in excellent condition? let me know in pvt message.
(Have two available)
Tnx!

You should be able to run it legally until at least July!

 

[OnTheAir123]

I have another exciter and mod monitor to add to your collection!! haha

Is CQUAM being outlawed at some point?

Geez, wasn't it mandated at one point? (C-quam)
The mind boggles.

I would like one. PM me please. I have a use for it outside of broadcasting.

According to Part 73, it is STILL Mandated on X Band stations (1620-1710)...Even if the FCC has allowed CQUAM, the section mandating AM Stereo has preference...and I havent seen it recinded yet...(but then the FCC is always right and never makes a mistake right?

I didn't see anything about stations having to turn off the Quam.

I can utilize it for a variable (M+S) / (M-S) processor to aid in an analogue noise reduction scheme I am working on for older analogue tapes which have dolby mistrack issues.

Ask an intelligent question, get an evasive non-response.

I am hoping this to not be the case here; although I am working on someone elses project and I am personally limited in the scope of details I can provide.

Interesting....

 

[raydofan]

Ah!

I worked out a phase NR for mono records that works surprisingly well. I did this with a DAW.

Let us know how it works.

It's a rough way to do Matrix processing

Yes, it is rough, certainly. the key is to map out the problem areas on the tape and do it on the fly rather than to cut the files from the daw in sections and paste the whole thing together. 4 passes should suffice.

 

[wgliradio]

There are better processors than using something from an AM stereo exciter.

I have the mercury Waves bundle and all kinds of various toys but I have a hunch that "with modifications" I can make it do what I want it to do.

Ever heard of Bob Vogt? He passed away in Tallahassee last year and I am carrying on part of his legacy.

He is the guy who used over 200 heads to extract data from erased tapes.

No-that is not meant for you. It's for another person who has a similar signoff who does not seem to know how to answer a question in kind. Ah, politics and related discussion.

I would appreciate a page devoted to technique-if you get the opportunity to discuss openly.
