This is a wonderful piece of history: 1982 seems like a lifetime ago. The world was so vastly different then and the shuttle program was relatively new. As such it had tremendous public support. I was so incredibly proud of our achievements.
This is great! I put this in the background when I'm playing Kerbal. Chatterer has a way of repeating the same clips repeatedly which is a little immersion breaking.
I could never watch the NASA live-feed channels because it always put me to sleep, and now I'm listening to this 🤣😴 Real talk though, I love listening to ATC radio for the same reason; police/fire channels are a bit too stimulating.
As an Amateur Radio Operator and ARISS Ambassador who talks to the ISS crew quite regularly, I can't sleep listening to this because I always focus on the radio chatter and get excited like when I'm talking with the crew myself!
There is a really good reason why they use analog radio and not digital radio, even though digital radio would eliminate distortion, noise et cetera. The same is true for aviation.
@@KB1UIF That's exactly what I was talking about. The capture effect only allows the stronger signal to be demodulated, generally with complete suppression of the other. AM produces a noticeable heterodyne with even a moderate underlying signal. ATC can notice that another signal tried to xmit.

such a random but great thing - internet ftw.

Thank you! I plan on switching to a Monday/Thursday upload schedule, so there should be several hours of "new" chatter every week.

I love the beep

amazing…tell me more! I’m a country girl and don’t know much about technology! 🌙
If you talk to them regularly, keep it down and let others try then
Jack Lousma is probably my favourite astronaut of all time.
On CuriousMarc's channel they are restoring various Apollo radio communication equipment. Very interesting.

And put your helmet on...
thank you shipmate, i sure appreciate this.
Of course this was all before the TDRS Satellites were launched
TDRSS-1 was launched by Challenger in 1983. No. 2 was lost in the Challenger accident.
Love this, thank you
Where the heck do you get this stuff? Thanks for finding, putting together and posting. 👍🇿🇦

And aviation uses AM.
You can tell when a signal is behind the stronger signal on AM. FM only demodulates the strongest signal
@timmack2415 I think you are trying to explain capture effect?
@@KB1UIF That's exactly what I was talking about. The capture effect only allows the stronger signal to be demodulated, generally with complete suppression of the other.
AM produces a noticeable heterodyne with even a moderate underlying signal.
ATC can notice that another signal tried to xmit.
@timmack2415 Yes, I'm not arguing with you, I'm agreeing with you and was clarifying the term for the effect.

What causes the "phaser" effect on Columbia's radio signal (rapid echo)? Multipath propagation?
There is a lot of doppler shift on space to ground. Not sure about the "phaser" effect tho.

@@KB1UIF They actually used this early in the program to help build the state vector for the vehicle on the ground. GPS wasn't available to them yet.
