Viet Cong Home made HF Radio Receiver during Vietnam war

Operation Wandering Soul was a propaganda campaign and psychological warfare effort exercised by U.S. forces during the Vietnam War. It was an attempt to increase desertions and defections from Việt Cộng forces and weaken their morale.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_Wandering_Soul



Radio First Termer was a pirate radio station which operated in January 1971 in Saigon during the Vietnam War.

The station was hosted by a United States Air Force sergeant[1] (born August 15, 1948[2]) calling himself "Dave Rabbit".[2] The two other members of the crew were known as "Pete Sadler" and "Nguyen". Their real names were Don Wade and Roma, a WLS team.

After three tours in Vietnam, "Dave Rabbit" and his friends launched Radio First Termer from a secret studio in a Saigon brothel. The station broadcast for 63 hours[2] over 21 nights (between 1 January 1971 and 21 January 1971[3]).

The station played "hard acid rock" such as SteppenwolfBloodrockThree Dog NightLed ZeppelinSugarloaf, the James Gang, and Iron Butterfly, bands which were popular among the troops but largely ignored by the American Forces Vietnam Network. The music was mixed with antiwar commentary, skits poking fun at the U.S. Air Force and Lyndon B. Johnson, and raunchy sex and drug oriented jokes.[1]

During the mid-1990s, sound clips from a Radio First Termer broadcast posted on the internet renewed interest in the station. In February 2006, "Dave Rabbit" came forward and told his story. He also did an interview for a bonus feature on the DVD release of Sir! No Sir!, a film about G.I. counterculture during the Vietnam era.

Although the frequency was always announced as FM69, in reality, the show was broadcast over numerous frequencies, in addition to 69 MHz as selected by the Radio Relay troops across Vietnam. It was also broadcast over AM frequencies, including 690 AM.

In February 2008 audio clips of this underground radio show made their way into the hands Opie & Anthony and 3rd mic Jim Norton. They played some of the audio of these shows over the air at both their terrestrial radio show and their XM Satellite radio show and were impressed with the skills of Dave Rabbit back in "the 'Nam" which led to renewed interest on such sites as Google.




Radio Hanoi was a propaganda radio station run by the North Vietnamese Army during the Vietnam War. It originated in 1945, when it broadcast from Hanoi a week after the declaration of the Democratic Republic of Vietnam with the declaration "This is the Voice of Vietnam, broadcasting from Hanoi, the capital of the Democratic Republic of Vietnam.".[1] The station was noted for Hanoi Hannah’s propaganda speeches, which were used to undermine American morale, such as when she correctly read out lists of names concerning a ship’s arrival.[2] Her broadcasts ran for 8 years, ending when US forces left in 1973.[3] The station was later merged with the NLF’s Liberation Radio to become the Voice of Vietnam Station.

In September 1967, Radio Hanoi transmitted a message by General Võ Nguyên Giáp entitled "The Big Victory, The Great Task". Unbeknownst to Americans listening to the message, it was actually an outline to the upcoming Tet Offensive (which occurred on January 30, 1968). In the message, Giap stated: "U.S. Generals are subjective and haughty, and have always been caught by surprise and defeated."

The Vietnam War (also known as Second Indochina War, Vietnamese-American War or American War in Vietnam) lasted from 1 November 1955 to 30 April 1975, (19 years, 5 months, 4 weeks, and 1 day). It was fought between North Vietnam and South Vietnam. North Vietnam was supported by the Soviet UnionChina, and North Korea, and South Vietnam was set up by the United States and supported by South KoreaThailandAustraliaNew Zealand, and the Philippines. People from other countries also went to fight but not in their own national armies. The conflict between communist and capitalist countries was part of the Cold War.

The Viet Cong, also known as the National Liberation Front or NLF, was a South Vietnamese communist force that was helped by North Vietnam. It fought a guerrilla war against South Vietnamese anticommunist forces. The People's Army of Vietnam (also known as the North Vietnamese Army) engaged in a more conventional war by at times putting large forces to battle.

The Vietnam War was very controversial, especially in the United States. It was the first war to feature live television coverage and the first major armed conflict that the United States lost. The war became so unpopular in the United States that President Richard Nixon eventually agreed to send American soldiers home in 1973.

Utiliser un récepteur WEB SDR est trés simple, depuis votre PC connectez vous a ce site 

http://websdr.ewi.utwente.nl:8901/  qui capte de 150 kHz a 30 MHz en AM, BLU, CW.

C'est gratuit. Bien sur au début il faut s'entrainer a comprendre comme s'en servir mais ce n'est pas compliqué. Sur la chute d'eau ( waterfall ) vous pouvez voir les signaux captés qui sont des traits rouges. Si vous zoomez sur cette chute d'eau vous allez voir qu'il est indiqué les bandes de fréquences pour les radios en modulation d'amplitude et les bandes radioamateur.


Ici au lieu de AM j'ai mis AM syncrone qui est encore mieux.

En rouge la bande des radios et en vert la bande des radioamateurs.

Si on zoom tres fort il y a indiqué le nom des stations de radios. Moi je suis sur 13625 et c'est la radio Voice of Turkey  https://webkiwisdrswl.blogspot.com/2023/05/turkey-voice-of-turkey-13635-in-turkish.html?spref=bl

Si vous cliquez sur STATION INFO vous allez choisir si vous voulez des informations sur les radios en ondes moyennes mwlist.org
Exemple j'écoute radio Caroline sur 648 kHz








Pour les ondes courtes 

Cliquez sur station info

Cliquez sur le bouton short-wave.info

Pour la fréquence 13635 kHz ils vous indiquent quelle est la station que vous écouté.



Ils vous montre l'endroi ou se trouve l'émetteur et donnent des infos sur la radio,
