I lack any LF experience at all at the moment. Nevertheless, I consider to take a chance on LF. Does it make sense when I try to start LF from my ship /MM ( steel fishermen cutter ) instead of from my condo ? Does sea again ( if any at all ? ) and low man made en evironment noise add substantially to the LF performance ? ( Besides, on my vessel I could erect bigger aerials than at the home QTH ). Where could I find explanations on (possible ) sea gain on LF ? Where could I find information on the ( LF ) noise levels offshore ? Thanks for your appreciated thoughts. Peter, PE1ECM
