Jules is not on the reflector I think. He must be one of the first, if not THE first, continental station on 136kHz with a signal that could be heard all over Europe. I worked him 14 March 1999. He has send me QSL, circuit diagram and photographs via mail. LX1PD uses a beatifully looking valve transmitter with 8 pentodes PL36 parallel-pushpull in the final. Output 1.2kW. The anode voltage comes from six-phase rectification of the 220/380V mains without a transformer. L-type aerial of 200ft, base loaded. Receivers DrakeR7A and JPS NIR 12 DSP. Jules suffers from a high local noise level so his reception is not too good. Jules Braun lives at Hesperange in Luxemburg, JN39BN. 73, Dick, PA0SE JO22GD
