Here's a sample recorded using a Gonset converter ahead of a Sony SRF 42 with the transmitter in the dummy load:
SRF 42 Test
Please note that even though the transmitter was in the dummy load any distortion you may hear is because the
Gonset converter was operating under near overload conditons.
This is what the transmitter sounds like on the stations monitor with the transmitter in the dummy load:

Traditional terrestrial radio has enjoyed a long, historic period. But in recent days people have become
disatisfied with the limited variety of programming available on the AM/FM dial. Music has disappeared from AM radio. Stations
have been bought up by a few media giants. Formats have disappeared leaving listeners to search elsewhere for their favorite
music. While the portable .mp3 player is one solution there are a couple of other alternatives:
Satellite Radio
Many people who don't mind paying a fee for the privledge of listening to a wide variety of formats have turned to Satellite
Radio for entertainment. There are 2 companies providing these services:
Sirius Satellite Radio
XM Satellite Radio
Both companies offer many types of receivers for their services. Receivers for one companies services are not compatable with
the other.
Internet Radio:
With thousands of stations available, Internet Radio is yet another alternative to terrestrial broadcasting.
Many of these stations are commercial free and the only cost to you is your internet connection. You can listen to stations from
all over the world while you're working on your PC using a free player like Winamp.
For example listen to 1290 GLI
Bringing back a small part of what was once "The Mighty 1290 WGLI" on the Internet.
There are new advances in technology which are beginning to make Internet Radio competitive with terrestrial and satellite broadcasting.
Widespread WiFi will enable you to listen to Internet radio anywhere. Take a look at this project taking place in Nassau/Suffolk
county on Long Island:
Wireless Suffolk County
There now are many WiFi enabled radios which will allow you to listen to Internet radio without the use of your computer. Here's
a sample of these products:
Acoustic Energy’s Wi-Fi radio
Linksys Wireless-G Music Bridge
Macsense HomePod
Reciva Internet Radios
The Roku Soundbridge
The SONOWave Portable Internet Radio
The Torian Infusion
Internet enabled radios in cars promises to be around the corner. It's also interesting to note that many terrestrial
broadcasters have begun to make their stations available on the internet as well.

Our unity is a kinship of grief and steadfast resolve to prevail over our enemies.
Here buildings fell.... here a nation rose.
George W. Bush
Remembering September 11, 2001
I feel this way about it. World trade means world peace and consequently
the World Trade Center buildings in New York ... had a bigger purpose than
just to provide room for tenants. The World Trade Center is a living symbol
of man's dedication to world peace ... beyond the compelling need to make
this a monument to world peace, the World Trade Center should, because of
its importance, become a representation of man's belief in humanity, his
need for individual dignity, his beliefs in the cooperation of men, and
through cooperation, his ability to find greatness.

disatisfied with the limited variety of programming available on the AM/FM dial. Music has disappeared from AM radio. Stations
have been bought up by a few media giants. Formats have disappeared leaving listeners to search elsewhere for their favorite
music. While the portable .mp3 player is one solution there are a couple of other alternatives:
Satellite Radio
Many people who don't mind paying a fee for the privledge of listening to a wide variety of formats have turned to Satellite
Radio for entertainment. There are 2 companies providing these services:
Sirius Satellite Radio
XM Satellite Radio
Both companies offer many types of receivers for their services. Receivers for one companies services are not compatable with
the other.
Internet Radio:
With thousands of stations available, Internet Radio is yet another alternative to terrestrial broadcasting.
Many of these stations are commercial free and the only cost to you is your internet connection. You can listen to stations from
all over the world while you're working on your PC using a free player like Winamp.
For example listen to 1290 GLI
Bringing back a small part of what was once "The Mighty 1290 WGLI" on the Internet.
There are new advances in technology which are beginning to make Internet Radio competitive with terrestrial and satellite broadcasting.
Widespread WiFi will enable you to listen to Internet radio anywhere. Take a look at this project taking place in Nassau/Suffolk
county on Long Island:
Wireless Suffolk County
There now are many WiFi enabled radios which will allow you to listen to Internet radio without the use of your computer. Here's
a sample of these products:
Acoustic Energy’s Wi-Fi radio
Linksys Wireless-G Music Bridge
Macsense HomePod
Reciva Internet Radios
The Roku Soundbridge
The SONOWave Portable Internet Radio
The Torian Infusion
Internet enabled radios in cars promises to be around the corner. It's also interesting to note that many terrestrial
broadcasters have begun to make their stations available on the internet as well.

The Twin Towers:
Our unity is a kinship of grief and steadfast resolve to prevail over our enemies.
Here buildings fell.... here a nation rose.
George W. Bush
Remembering September 11, 2001
I feel this way about it. World trade means world peace and consequently
the World Trade Center buildings in New York ... had a bigger purpose than
just to provide room for tenants. The World Trade Center is a living symbol
of man's dedication to world peace ... beyond the compelling need to make
this a monument to world peace, the World Trade Center should, because of
its importance, become a representation of man's belief in humanity, his
need for individual dignity, his beliefs in the cooperation of men, and
through cooperation, his ability to find greatness.
Minoru Yamasaki, chief architect of the World Trade Center

Listen to some off air audio samples of WA2FNQ in stereo on 75 meters:
Sample 1
Sample 2
These samples were recorded by Pete, WA1SOV using a Sony SRF A100 I.F. coupled to his SP 600.
Here's a sample recorded using a Gonset converter ahead of a Sony SRF 42 with the transmitter in the dummy load:
SRF 42 Test
Please note that even though the transmitter was in the dummy load any distortion you may hear is because the
Gonset converter was operating under near overload conditons.
This is what the transmitter sounds like on the stations monitor with the transmitter in the dummy load:

The Twin Towers:
Our unity is a kinship of grief and steadfast resolve to prevail over our enemies.
Here buildings fell.... here a nation rose.
George W. Bush
Remembering September 11, 2001
I feel this way about it. World trade means world peace and consequently
the World Trade Center buildings in New York ... had a bigger purpose than
just to provide room for tenants. The World Trade Center is a living symbol
of man's dedication to world peace ... beyond the compelling need to make
this a monument to world peace, the World Trade Center should, because of
its importance, become a representation of man's belief in humanity, his
need for individual dignity, his beliefs in the cooperation of men, and
through cooperation, his ability to find greatness.
Minoru Yamasaki, chief architect of the World Trade Center
