The Sangean HDR-15
Many thanks to SWLing Post contributor, Mike Schuster who writes:
Hi Thomas,
Sangean has quietly buried yet another AM/FM HD radio in the PDF of their US 2019 catalog [ download as a PDF].
It’s the HDR-15 which appears to be a small clock radio/phone dock [photo above].
Also, in their European catalog [ click here to download as PDF] they are transitioning all of the model names to a more descriptive grouping. So the SR-35 is now the “Pocket 100”, the DT-160 is now the “Pocket 160”, and the DT-800 is the “Pocket 800”.
There is also a new DAB+ portable, the DPR-64 (em … er …” Pocket 640“) whose cabinet is rounder and smaller than the DPR-65 (em … er … “ Traveller 650“)
whose cabinet they adapted for the American HDR-14. Wonder if there
will be a forthcoming US HD-radio portable based on this cabinet design.
This looks very interesting to me as a potential DAB+ travel radio,
priced at about $100 and already available from several European and
Australian electronics houses.
Thanks for the tip, Mike! I enjoyed checking out both the US and
European catalogs. Sangean is certainly embracing DAB+ and HD Radio.
I see Sangean also includes two shortwave radios: the ATS-909X and ATS-405.
In the EU catalog, they’re referred to as the “Discover 909X” and the “Discover 405.”

Many thanks to SWLing Post contributor (and intrepid radio deal reporter) Christian, who writes:
I’ve been following the price of the Eton Executive Traveler closely on Amazon.
Each day, the price is lowered a few cents. It’s currently $41 and some
change. I’m guessing Eton has triggered this continuous price drop to
sell out all of the inventory at Amazon. Perhaps this model of the
Traveler is on the way out??? At least that’s my uneducated guess. It’s
certainly a great deal at $41! Fabulous little travel portable! Anyway,
just wanted to share the update. I’ll be keeping an eye on other prices
too. One of the benefits of my recent retirement! Hi hi!
Thanks for the tip once again, Christian! And happy retirement!

 The FCC is accepting comments on a Petition for Rule Making ( RM-11831)
seeking to amend FCC Part 97 rules that require all ham radio digital
transmissions to use techniques “whose technical characteristics have
been documented publicly.” The Petition, filed by Ron Kolarik,
K0IDT, of Lincoln, Nebraska, expresses concerns that some currently used
digital modes are not readily and freely able to be decoded, and it
asks the FCC to require all digital codes to use protocols that “can be
monitored in [their] entirety by third parties with freely available,
open-source software,” per §97.113(a)(4).
Kolarik said his petition also aims to reduce levels of
amateur-to-amateur interference from Automated Controlled Digital
Stations (ACDS) on HF operating under §97.221(d)(2). Kolarik wants the
FCC to delete §97.221©, which permits automatic control of digital
emissions provided the station “is responding to interrogation by a
station under local or remote control, and [n]o transmission from the
automatically controlled station occupies a bandwidth of more than 500
Hz.”
In his Petition, Kolarik maintains that interference from ACDS
continues to be “a major problem on the amateur bands.” He suggested
that an absence of formal complaints may be due to the fact that such
stations are “difficult to identify.”
The Petition also proposes to amend §97.309(a)(4) to ease
monitoring of certain digital transmissions. “Without open, over-the-air
interception capability for all transmissions in the Amateur Radio
spectrum, there is no way to determine if there is commercial or other
prohibited, inappropriate content in ongoing communications…” Kolarik’s Petition asserts.
He said problems arise when “protocols and devices used in commercial,
government, and marine services are used in the Amateur Service with no
adequate means to fully decode transmissions,” thwarting any efforts at
self-policing of such transmissions. He said simplifying the language
“would remove ambiguity about what constitutes ‘publicly documented
technical characteristics’ by requiring any protocol to be freely
decodable,” and lead to “amateur digital mode transparency, present and
future.”
Kolarik contended in his petition that FCC action stemming from ARRL’s 2013 “symbol rate” Petition for Rule Making could increase congestion (i.e., interference) problems. In July 2016, the FCC in WT Docket 16-239 proposed to revise the Part 97 rules to eliminate current baud rate limitations for data emissions, consistent with ARRL’s Petition,
but declined to propose a bandwidth limitation for MF and HF digital to
replace current baud rate limitations. ARRL had asked the FCC to delete
the symbol rate limits in §97.307(f) and replace them with a maximum
bandwidth for data emissions of 2.8 kHz on amateur frequencies below
29.7 MHz.

Southgate ARC - There used to be a time when amateur radio
was a fairly static pursuit. There was a lot of fascination to be had
with building radios, but what you did with them remained constant year
on year. Morse code was sent by hand with a key, voice was on FM or SSB
with a few old-timers using AM, and you’d hear the warbling tones of
RTTY traffic generated by mechanical teletypes
