A very effective antenna is a piece of insulated wire as long and as high as possible resonated for the frequency of interest and a good sensitive RX. All other types of small antennas ie ferrite rods, micro probes, etc are alright for receiving broadcast high power stations or amateur QRSS acty but poor for CW reception. I have noticed EU stn on LF can only work their neighbours using QRS because of poor RX antennas, not enough sensitivity for CW. Sending out a Beacon is the easy part but conducting a cw QSO is a different ball game. Hope you get yours fixed mal/g3kev ----- Original Message ----- From: "manginbenoit.pro" <manginbenoit.pro@laposte.net> To: <rsgb_lf_group@blacksheep.org> Sent: Thursday, December 22, 2011 9:08 AM Subject: Re:LF: Re: LF/MF X-Band Request GM Mal, That's actually the case. RX problem still here. I heard a signal in the noise, tried to dig it out, but did not success. Your signal should not be so hard to copy from this QTH. Now QRT too, trying to solve the thing. TNX trying. I'll post later on abt problem solving and back on trafic. de F8GRY/Ben > Message du 22/12/11 09:53 > De : "mal hamilton" > A : rsgb_lf_group@blacksheep.org > Copie à : > Objet : LF: Re: LF/MF X-Band Request > > Om > You seem to be on BEACON MODE and not listening. > I have called you but you are not responding or your RX/ANTENNA is not > working > Now QRT here > de G3KEV > > ----- Original Message ----- > From: "manginbenoit.pro" > To: > Cc: "rcf5kmb googlegroups com" > Sent: Thursday, December 22, 2011 8:10 AM > Subject: LF: LF/MF X-Band Request > > > GM All, > > Starting CQing X-Band on 7022, QSX 136.500, seems the SDR is in better > health now. > > de F8GRY/Ben > > Une messagerie gratuite, garantie à vie et des services en plus, ça vous > tente ? > Je crÊe ma boÎte mail www.laposte.net > > > > Une messagerie gratuite, garantie à vie et des services en plus, ça vous tente ?
