Hi Jim.... GLad people are hearing my beacon LA3EQ/P (it is the barn just beside my house) The LA3EQ wspr is rx only and listning with only a 14MHz dipole!......my beacon power is 60 Watts DC input into ther tuner. (almost 1 Amp RF current indicated on my RF amp meter from USSR)..not +10dBm as wrongly indicated on wspr ----thanks for letting me know....I don't know my ERP. Is the power level reported on WSPR ERP or is it RF power out? My transmitter is a TS2000 on 6 meters using homemade transverter type "G3XBM" (but with a 50 Mhz LO) and homemade PA with a single Mosfet XFH75N10 stage, home made tuner and a 3,5 MHz windom antenna up 20 feet. I am building a Marconi T with three 20 meter long "T"'s and the feedline appx 10 meters long taped at center. It should be going up in the air sometime today.... 73's Jan LA3EQ >.... I estimate, very roughly, that LA3EQ/P has an ERP of 0.2W Cheers, Jim Moritz 73 de M0BMU
