- While trying to figure out SDRPlay's fancy Radio Spectrum Processor (a software defined receiver) I came across the most unusual transmission on one of the Amateur HF bands. In this video we take a look at SDR, hear some interesting samples and , of course, have some fun.

You intercepted the communications of a sleeper cell.
HA HA your right a sleeper cell..... That's one for the logbook....
You win.
It really would be funny if there was data modulated into that audio. Alas it would probably be interpreted as a dream.

Comment of the century right there
snoring defined radio ?!
Spot on! :)))
Brillliant!!! ;)
AHAHAHAHAHHAAHAHAHAJFKFKLGOTOTPE9W001IW89EJMR
LMAO!!
digitalmediafan...In your case its Snatch Detection Revealed.....
Hi Budd, thanks for a very interesting video. the snoring over the air was certainly unusual. Years ago, here in Australia, on ATV, there was one HAM operator who fell asleep during a broadcast and for a short time, it was possible to literally watch him asleep at his desk. Incidentally, I have just now subscribed to your channel. All the very best. Robert.
My guess on 4:56 is SNORE "Signal to Noise Optimized Radio Emission" version 1.0 - a previously unknown digital mode. ;)
Similar to the WANT mode (Worked All Neighbor's Televisions).
WAN: Worked All Neighbors
my cat works well as a snore beacon
I'll have to remember that one.
Say does it resonate from the upper or lower Nasal cavity? I'm assuming vertical polarised transmission source.
looks so encrypted!
Expected this to be click bait but was very pleasantly surprised at the actual unusual signal. Well done Sir.
I kinda felt ripped off for the amount of time I listened to just hear about someone asleep at the ham.
That was probably the most entertaining, enjoyable vid I've ever seen on UA-cam (and I've seen a whole bunch)... thank you very much, Sir.
Thanks for this video. I used to fiddle around the Ham Radio Club back in my college days about a decade ago. While I did go on to help the club in admin activities, sadly as a hobbyist myself I never went past the initial interest and couldn't get myself to apply for a license. Watching your video today just rekindled that hobbyist in me. Grateful much. 73s!
Loud & clear...Very good video for a rooky in sdr mode.. Congrats!!!

While I don't fully understand most of the things you've talked about in this video yet, I'd like to say that you've done a fantastic job with this video. The editing is great and you speak with so much knowledge in a way that keeps me interested. Thank you for taking the time and putting in the effort with it, you've certainly earned a subscriber in me!
Budd, that was a very well done video. Great content and presentation skills, video editing and inserts were spot on! You have upped your game with this video. Thumbs up for all the extra effort to publish such an amazing video.
+Cliff Matthews no gaps. Watch for CW decoding video coming soon. I have it working but need to carve out the time to do the video.

You're a top lad. Always wanted to get into SWL but never quite knew where to start. Your videos are very concise.
You had me worried for a moment Budd, at first I thought it might be me after one of my wife's excellent bean and cheese burritos had taken hold. On the serious side, thanks for a great video on digital transmission modes and Software Defined Radios in particular. I looked up the SDRplay RSP1A receiver and it's available through HRO in Burbank near where I live so I'm going to pick one up next week!
I think he was snoring in CW
He was near the novice band. If there still is such a thing!
@@Wa3ypx The old Z callsign?
@@gorillaau Maybe he was a New Zealander, a ZL prefix
Great video - thanks, Budd. (PS - maybe the snoring is really a new type of numbers station :) )
What an informative video, great style and content. Thanks
*waits for an old man to start showing off the numberstation he found*
*actually finds a guy asleep with vox on*
Honestly, the rollercoaster had a way better pay off. Can't say I expected this.
Keep up the good work Old man!!! we need more people like you to show the youth how to do useful things with their time!
yep i am learning
Interesting little gizmo. I'm an SWL who just uses an assortment of old transistor receivers with simple wire antennas. I used to listen to Radio Moscow, VOA, and radio Havana during the Cold War, plus assorted random stations. Nowadays it's a mix of strange fundamentalist Christians, CW, and our old friend Radio Havana. Thanks for posting this one.
Outstanding video! Very fun and instructive.
Very well made video. I enjoyed it very much. I am about to take the test to get my Tech license. Already ordered a couple UV-82's to get started. I am now very interested in these SDR's. Looks like an awesome way to see where the activity is across a large spectrum of a band. I will have to look further into this SDRPlay :) 73
Thanks for the great story, my favorite experience listening to 40 meter usually involve a VOX that was left on. Turns out that on a world wide basis that happens a lot. My personal favorite was a husband and wife bickering over who's going to the store for beer.
Budd, you have the record I think for the most watched SDRplay related video!
And here I thought it was going to be a numbers station or something. This is just as good! Thanks for sharing!
thanks Budd, that was great... reminds me of the time i got in trouble with the ex-wife because she feel asleep on the couch, snored up a storm while I was chatting with friends on DX. The next night, they asked her if she was ever seen a doctor for sleep apnea. Man, she was mad as hell at me.
just started getting into SDR and am considering the SDRPLAY unit Great information and fun too :)
Well done Budd! Keep up your great work!
I hope that you sent him a contact report. :-)
God damn, that made me laugh really fucking hard.
Enjoyed your video . like your style. keep up the great work!
Dude, I had an absolute laugh once I found out what the sound was! Also, Kudos to you for using nice, analog music, or at least, music that doesn't sound like techno hell. As a person with two senses crossed, sometimes that stuff overloads my brain. But, again, that was funny!
Tf is techno hell
Nicely paced video. I don't normally like the "you won't believe what I'm going to show you later" format but you had enough content to keep things going. I'll be checking out that SDR box as my current TV dongle is a bit deaf 😁
What a story. I am all excited to get my SDR next week and tap in to this hobby
The title did not disappoint. Thank you for the video.
I dont think my heart could handle the exitement of this sort of thing.
This is awesome stuff! I'm subbed now! Keep up the good work!
Seems like santa clause got himself a hobby
ninejets ha ha ha! Be nice! Bud is truly awesome!
Coal4U this year, Smartass! :-(
Lol
ninejets gets added to the naughty list.
ninejets there are many hams like him men and women
That was a very good video, great info. Thank You !
Hey Budd, "Over The Horizon Radar" signal. :) Thanks for the video.
In Soviet Russia, OTH radar snores at you!
ln Australia "Over The Horizon Radar" will detect any movement (trusted or otherwise) our Northern neighbours make.
@Nathan Trigg but isn’t that under the horizon radar?
I just received my SDR from RTL-SDR and I am trying the same software you use. Looks like a lot of fun. I'll have to order one of those connectors so that I can you my antennas that are mounted outside. Nice video.
Thanks for taking the time to make this video. Have an Airborne Day!
Single Snore Band?
If a half filtered nose, other wise it could have been Double Snore Band.
You are amazing!!! You got a new fan here in south Florida.
loved the video. i am getting the sdrplay. cant wait
Great video my friend gave me a good chuckle.
Oh my, I just laughed and laughed.
Very nicely presented. Liked and subscribed!!!
You have really high quality videos to only have 11k subs. Nice video!
I connected my SDR to an amplified broadband horizontal antenna for UV and, a long wire for HF. Amazing what all you can receive.
great video and professional editing.
Holy cow! I know Jon Hudson as well; top guy. Great video, very informative.
hahaha I genuinely had a good laugh when the guy started snoring
Thanks Bud. Merry Christmas
Got a good chuckle over that
I am new to this most informative Vid Bud Thank you M1EDF
I would had sworn it's a new slow digital mode. Some new modulation at ~1-2cps.
It's juat a damn bacon beacon.
Awesome set up you have.
This was very interesting 😄 thx for info
Cool stuff. I agree, all of the mysterious stuff is in the lower HF frequencies.
Quite funny ! My cat REALLY took notice of the snoring !
there is just one problem with sdrplay. the developers forgot the most important part of why people get in to sdr listening with the dongles. the price
loved your video budd
That's hilarious!! Thanks for the SDR primer, too! I've been in (commercial) electronics for nearly 50 years, but never got into amateur radio....heaven only knows why not! Recently got into SWL, though. What kind of antenna are you using, and what bandwidth(s) does it cover? I have many questions, and could use a good book to guide me. Most have to do with antennas, though, since I live in an area notorious for poor reception. Thanks! :-)
:) Funny video! BTW, you sound very professional! One may hear a long-term shortwaver :)
Awesome video, Budd!
i think this is a form of coastal radar to measure wave heights. sounds very much like snoring
good vid as all of yours are.
.
Budd, you are such a good teacher! The ham community should give you an award for outstanding Elmer of the year. Presentation, clarity, personality, video editing, music background, production style are just a few categories in which your talents excel. The younger people coming into the Amateur Radio need to study videos like yours so keep up the great work!
73, Dub, k4dub
a little while ago, I encountered a station that sounded like "OWWW. OWW. OWWWWW. OWWW."
Wish I'd have remembered to record the stream, or remember the frequency.
All the best!
Great video! It did make me laugh - I think we've all been there! 73's G7DMQ
Another great vid
That’s funny! Thanks for sharing.
this is cool! I'm starting to get into amateur radio and I'm gonna have to get one of these devices.. I'm a bit of a software nerd but I never knew these existed!
Great entertainment video. Thanks Santa.
* live in the world of conspiracy, high tech, AI, elon musk .
"You won't believe what I've heard!"
* I've heard number stations, I've read pizza gate, I'm up for some high tech hidden stuff, I want to be blown away, full dark secrets, i sit patiently for a 5 minute video not to spoil my own suprise.
* It's some old guy getting excited about snoring.
God dammit old man, and God bless you. I've subscribed even though I'm angry right now.
haha sums it up. Still, subscribed cos he made learning fun
Liked and subscribed, sir. Keep it up!
I've got another theory. After a long hiatus from radio, when I got back into it I was shocked to see how much the integrity of the airwaves have plummeted. There are people, who most likely don't even have a ham license, broadcasting a variety of sounds trying to interrupt hams who are conversing. I've heard animal sounds, music, farts, burps, laughter, whatever, come blasting through on top of someone talking. Might be some kids using their parent's radio, as setting up a station can be expensive, just to harass hams.
Back to the kid theory, maybe their dad or granddad, normally snores a lot so they turned on the mic and walked away.
Back in the day there were very strict rules (and penalties) for such things as playing music, cursing, harassment, not giving your call sign, etc. Seems the FCC does not have the resources nor the funding to police the ham bands. You would have to gather all the evidence yourself to get them to take action, and even then they might not do anything unless it's a severe abuse, such as jamming commercial broadcasts and/or cellphones.
If you ever tune over into the CB band area, it's worse.
Yeah, and really, that makes more sense. Offensive words or annoying noises are quickly solved by changing the frequency. In fact, radio trolls are often better ignored. If they get no results from their pranks, they'll gget bored and move on to something else.If someone isn't actually causing any trouble, the government shouldn't be interfering. Just think, if every person who went even .1 miles over the speed limit was given a $150 ticket and lost their license after so many which a lot of states do. If the limit is 55, and you are clocked at 57.5, the officer usually leaves you alone, but if you are following too closely, swerving, or otherwise acting more dangerous than simply going 2.5 miles over the limit, you'll get pulled over.
HF is practically dead in most built up areas due to RFI from power line network adaptors.
@@sheldonskaggs138 CB has been dead for so long its gravestone's got moss on it. Nothing to be heard around here at all anymore. Not even truckers.
@@kenlogsdon7095 true its dying a slow death, I still use my sparingly. Mostly when I get in bad weather or traffic jam that is in an unusual place
Hi Budd, i enjoyed your video very much. :)
Nice vid. Cool room, great topic and presentation..Subbed! 73!
The guy snoring must have been watching this guys videos, and instantly was out like a light. Wow! I caught myself doze off about 4 times watching this one. He has the voice hypnotists only dream of having.
Too good, Budd!!
5:03 He also does CW on the weekends. Some excerpts: "----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------" and "...……………………………………………………………………………"
Mercy, being over 60 years old, this reminds me so much of the payola that Dick Clark and a lot of disk jockeys were caught up in during the 60's. You sure you aren't a retired disk jockey who now sells software designed radios? HAHA.
this video was great!
Beard game is incredibly strong, Sir :)
Very nice intro .
How you did the text and effects and the remain video process?
excellent video, Ive been wanting to get into radio
hahaha...I think that was me snoring in that video, Thanx Bud :) ( i still sit here laughing at the fact it was me!)
Budd, Congrats on such a magnificent beard! :-D
Once when the ham club got together at ARC we were listening to a DX station with the vox turned on and one them said the guy was 46 and I said no that's a *5* emphasizing *5* , the word "five" tripped the VOX and when then we wondered about people listening in and suddenly hearing "5" from me and nothing else. What must they have thought ...
Similarly we can say that the UVB76 is nothing but the radio host sleeping with the PTT pressed. I believe you have made a discovery of a mystery that lasts for decades. 73!
The sound at 3:30 is JT65, a very popular weak signal digital mode on 14.076 MHz
I'd be willing to bet your RSP that is not in fact a ham sleeping but somebody with a digital audio loop trying to hold a spot on the band for himself for later use.
He's giving the old Buzzer and run for it's money! LOL!
Brilliant!
Loved it thanks.
nice to meet you!
I too heard her snoring ham that day it was very interesting unfortunately I was unable to make a video of it for UA-cam
Yes Amateur radio has been around for awhile. Sometime in the early 1900s shortly before WWI the Navy shore patrol showed up at the South Side Chicago home of my grandfather asking, “Are you operating a radio transmitter?” The answer was yes; he and his brother had created a spark gap crystal transmitter with a wire antenna strung between trees and had been communicating with others doing the same via Morse Code. “Well stop it, you are interfering with our ship-to-shore communications in the Atlantic.” they were told. During WWI he served in the Navy as radio operator. 😂
really good thanks so much
Super video, subscribed!
I remember listening to the Gator Net on 3898 back around 1990 with Hugh Bronson, Wilkie Jimmy Tiny and the regulars and this happened, they did a role call and guessed who it was, eventually you heard the phone ring along with the snoring with a lot of ribbing the poor guy on the air.
The new RTL SDR V4 has a built-in up-converter that works great. Got mine last week and really enjoying it. Much better than the V3 I've had for years. Also, it has easily installed drivers for Linux, which is all I use.
Very funny 😂❤️...great vidéo
