Hi Stephan, Gerhard, I have an approach that says " If its new to you its '=
research' " Lots of usefull stuff has been learned by repeating old observa=
tions in the light of new information and with newer equipment. If you read=
 the old LF propagation papers much is biassed towards the commercial use a=
t that time. Few is any researchers would be interested in using "small" an=
tennas etc. Few were interested in really long propagation paths after HF b=
ecame common, and even then "more watts" was seen as the easy answer. They =
were written mostly before satellite Space Weather data was available.=0A=
=0AI am reminded of the comments made by some when we started on 73kHz...Th=
at "We would not get a signal out of our 'back-garden' with 1 watt" :-)) =
