�tf-8?q?A NEW DXER'S TOOL - A UNIVERSAL TRANSLATOR �tf-8?qC3€ LA STAR TREK!  View Printable Version 
Saturday, April 23 2022

HCDX


A NEW DXER'S TOOL - A UNIVERSAL TRANSLATOR À LA STAR TREK!

Although not perfect, Google's Voice Translator tool can be a great
addition to a DXer's tool box. (Emphasis on CAN BE.)

It is NOT perfect but it works very well, if the languages in question
are in the database and if the audio is clear enough. I have used it to
identify stations I have heard and  figure out the content of a program
to gather program details for reception reports.

There are some quirks in using it that can be annoying. But there are
workarounds.

Basically, it listens to the audio through the computer's microphone and
takes the speaker's words and types them on the screen in the speaker's
language. Google's translator instantaneously translate the words in the
target language. Besides using it live, I have recorded the audio of my
DX catches and played the recordings back through the computer that way.

It is fairly simple to use. You just figure out the language of the
speaker and put it in the left hand side, and enter the target language
on the right hand side. Then just click on the microphone on the left box.

I have not figured out a way to do this without using the computer's
microphone (i.e. line-out to line-in, or in the computer internally.)  I
imagine that someone could experiment and figure out ways to do this.
Also, I have found it does not work at all with Firefox, but it does
work with Chrome and Microsoft Edge.  I imagine there is some
proprietary business going on,

REMEMBER, this is not a panacea, nor does it work in ALL instances, but
it works well in enough cases to be another tool in a DXer's Tool Box.
And while not as efficient as the Universal Translator in the Star Trek
Canon, it is one like the one used there albeit at an embryonic stage.

Below is an example of how this works.  Of course, the translation is
not perfect, but there are enough clues to let you know that this is
likely from Family Radio and there are some reception details that you
can dig out to use for a reception report.  I have used it with Spanish,
Portuguese, French, German, Russian, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, and a
few others with good success. (I would advise cautionl when writing
reception reports with this, because the translations are not 100%
accurate. To be as sure as possible with what you put in your reception
report, remember that web searches such as DuckGoDuck, Bing, and Google
are your friends.)

About this station, the colleague and friend José Hernández Madrid
sends me the replay that Rafael Rodríguez, QSL manager of La Voz de tu
Conciencia sent to a listener, Adolfo Arto, who sent him a reception
report about the station on 4940 kHz, and that he posts on Facebook
(Google translation):

"1. The Signal on 4940 KHz is not operated by the Colombia Para Cristo
Organization or its Fuerza de Paz Campaign, which in previous years
operated on 5910 and 6010 Khz from Colombia and of which I am the QSL
Manager.
2. Although the 4940 khz signal retransmits old programs from those
stations and for this reason Fuerza de Paz is mentioned, these programs
are taken from public web servers where these programs have been hosted
for several years.
3. The 4940 Khz signal has never been identified in any way, it presents
Colombian-Venezuelan music, they give the UTC -4 time (Venezuela time)
and in my opinion it transmits from that country or very close to the
border between Venezuela and Colombia .
4. I ask you to be attentive because it is working on the reactivation
of the 6010 Khz signal and that I trust you can listen and report to my
email: rafaelcoldx@yahoo.com, where I will be sending you the eQSL and
other souvenirs.”

The text in Spanish;
“1. La Señal en 4940 KHz no es operada por la organización Colombia para
Cristo ni su Campña Fuerza de Paz, que en años anteriores operaba en
5910 y 6010 Khz desde Colombia y de la cual soy el QSL Manager.
2. Aunque por la señal de 4940 khz retransmiten programas antiguos de
esas estaciones y por esto se escucha mencionar Fuerza de Paz, estos
programas son sacados de servidores web públicos donde estan alojados
estos programas desde hace varios años.
3.La señal de 4940 Khz nunca se ha identificado de ninguna manera,
presenta música colombo-venezolana, dan la hora UTC -4 (Hora de
Venezuela) y en mi opinión transmite desde ese país o muy cerca de la
frontera entre venezuela y colombia.
4. Les pido estar atento, está trabajando en la reactivación de la
señal 6010 Khz y que confío pueda escuchar y reportar ami correoe:
rafaelcoldx@yahoo.com, donde les estaré enviando la eQSL y otros
recuerdos.”
