Default Questions R8

Okay, I just got an R8, and this steps things up several notches from
previous receivers (DAMN what a radio... all it's missing is the FM
band in stereo). So I have a few questions.

Checking the noise floor, the meter shows almost down to S1 at some
frequencies. Is that reading reliable/meaningful? The antenna is a
150' long wire, coax into the house.

I'd like to run audio into my sound card, but it's too sensitive for
line out. How do people convert/attenuate/whatever the signal?

I'm getting **** not listed at PrimeTime (including those number
stations). Are there other resources?


This imports EIBI database, shows MUF and grey line. The price is right:

See if you can find the executable for that function and save it,
that's what I did with the grayline generator in HamRadioDeluxe.

Not necessary. I have this one up and running.

There's this online site that takes satellite derived cloud info and
superimposes it to the globe. http://www.die.net/earth/

Bookmarked.
