Shortwave Radiogram, del 4 al 9 de Mayo: programa 303

Por elradioescucha el 05/05/2023

Our transmission on Saturdays, 2300-2330 UTC, 7570 kHz from WRMI Florida, has been suffering from wide-band interference on the same frequency. The interference is intermittent: sometimes it’s there, sometimes not, sometimes it lasts for several minutes, sometimes just for a few seconds. Anyway, Glenn Hauser, on his World of Radio program, reported that he was checking a shortwave frequency list, where he found “CGA984 – HF trading from Canada.” One of its frequencies is 7570.

HF trading is high-frequency trading. The “high-frequency” does not refer to the spectrum from 3 to 30 MHz, although it does sometimes use HF radio, but rather to the fact it “uses powerful computer programs to transact a large number of orders in fractions of a second,” according to Investopedia. Radio is faster than the internet or telephone lines, by fractions of a second, and thus provides an advantage to high-frequency traders.

Benn Kobb provides this list of all the frequencies available to this HF trading operation, licensed in Canada and located in Harrow, Ontario, near Detroit. This would explain why the signal on 7570 is usually strong via SDRs in Michigan.

This is what the noise looks like on an SDR. It doesn’t look or sound like data, but there must be some method to this. I don’t think that well-defined signal at 7558 is part of the HF trading operation, but I’m not sure about that.

The FCC and Canada’s CRTC will have to sort this out. We might experience noise on 7570 for at least one more weekend.

A video of last weekend’s Shortwave Radiogram (program 302) is provided by Scott in Ontario (Friday 1300 UTC). The audio archive is maintained by Mark in the UK. Analysis is prepared by Roger in Germany.
