USB or AM?

Good article. However in my experience of monitoring UVB-76 for several years it always uses full carrier dual side band ( Amplitude modulation) for broadcasting not upper side band (USB).

This is what I heard in a forum

If you guys haven't heard, the once thought Numbers Station UVB-76 ("The Buzzer" or "Boat Horn"), has been solved. It's a center for ionosphere research measuring doppler shifts of a continuously transmitted signal. It's broadcast on 4.625Mhz in the shortwave band. The following link has a Russian science "log" with the carrier frequency being 4.625Mhz for ionosphere research.

If this is the case, why has the station been broadcasting since 1982, and why are Russian Military transmissions broadcast? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.141.215.221 (talk) 18:35, 21 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Discussion deleted?

I see that the discussion page was fully deleted! A shame really, there was lots of good info here... I know it was messy, but i don´t think it was that bad. 77.184.28.3 (talk) 14:58, 18 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

It wasn't deleted, it was just archived. If you look at the top of the page, just above the links for the deletion discussion, you should see something that says "Archives: 1". Just click there and it'll take you to all of the old discussions that were archived. It is standard practice to archive discussions that have had no new responses in over 30 days.

Music transmissions summer 2010

I heard some transmissions of Tchaikovsky's ballet music, followed by a break, some numbers, or names and then coming back to the "normal" buzzer transmission again. Is there anyone else, who observed that transmissions ? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 91.18.78.29 (talk) 21:43, 8 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

- UVB-76 gets interference from various European radio stations, sometimes deliberately. Apparently radio pirates have broadcast insulting messages on the signal before to target western listeners, but most interference seems to come from German talk radio/ DRAC250 (talk) 14:28, 11 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Lately, we've been trying to edit some things in, but they keep being deleted. UVB-76 is NOT being killed by pirates currently, these are legitimate transmissions, have a look on streams, videos, ect. These are continuously deleted. Can we please keep these on there? I don't know how we can cite it, due to not many legitimate news sources knowing about it, ect. Thanks! PresentedIn4D (talk) 22:24, 20 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Unfortunately, if that information is not discussed in reliable sources, then we cannot add it to the article. SilverserenC 22:32, 20 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I am aware, however, we have various listeners all around Europe, who all have the same reception reports as to contents of broadcasts. I don't know what you mean by reliable source when it is reported and confirmed by multiple avid listeners. PresentedIn4D (talk) 20:09, 22 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I don't understand you. Did professional radio amateurs + radio groups + many blogs + recordings + reports + study pages (like that or that) didn't sum to be reliable source? That's just trolling. 89.76.176.180 (talk) 21:58, 22 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
