Rerurn to Romy the Cat's Site

This weekend I decide to take my FM where it should be. I ran ~125” and installed a dipole on the roof of my building and serviced my tuner. The result was as expected but there was something unexpected. Along with all normal benefits of better antenna the tuner begun to produced HF slightly better and yielded slightly more dynamic (I have no idea why!!!). Now running the tuner direct vs the AD-DA produce very-very-very slightly different result. I can’t characterize it as a compression but rather very-very minuet flattening of sound. The effect indescribably minute and it is absolutely undetectable blindly. If I 10 times switch between the analog and the digitalized feeds than probably 3-4 times I might that “something happens”, although to identify those change would be very difficult only by the “flattening” or compression. Still the difference, if it does exist now with the boundaries of this affect I might attribute to the crappy cables and the lover then necessary recording level of the ADC input. Another problem is that my Bidat perhaps dose not handle the quality of the digital stream? Or perhaps what I am beginning to feeling is the way in which digital should sound on my playback? I do not know the answers but I will continue to collect the observations. The “cable up” the system and trying to got for a full recoding dynamic range should be next step. Then I put the PC, lynx and the file into the game…
