Peterson, Conor / AI5EZ
At my home in Santa Fe, NM these signals came across as a slowly modulating carrier right at the noise floor with seemingly little of the content audible. For some recordings I set my mode to CW to better focus on the carrier which has its own ethereal quality.
Please add me to your mailing list if you have one, I am highly interested in transmission art and want to participate in your future experiments. Best wishes from the USA.

For this movement, I chose to demodulate the signal as CW instead of AM. The carrier gently fades in and out in a pattern imitating speech, though it is unclear to me whether that is genuine spoken word or the gentle modulation of the ionosphere. |

A basic recording of the NBTV signal demodulated as AM. Many harmonics are audible, presenting as a sustained metallic drone intertwined with the background of natural sferics. |

I chose to demodulate Snowy Owl as CW. For me, the fluttering carrier evokes both muffled speech and a hallucination of morse code. In this recording, the signal begins at approximately 1:15 seconds. |
