<DIV>It's not entirely correct that there's zero LF activity at present.</DIV>
<DIV>Most weekends I put out several CQ's, if not exactly expecting a reply then at least to give the would-be LF operator something to tune in to.</DIV>
<DIV>&nbsp;</DIV>
<DIV>I've been calling unsuccessfully this morning for ages, albeit with my humble 90 watts and 40 metre aerial !</DIV>
<DIV>&nbsp;</DIV>
<DIV>It must be disconcerting for someone who has taken the trouble to get an LF receiver system up and running to find that there's&nbsp;nothing to listen to on 136 !</DIV>
<DIV>&nbsp;</DIV>
<DIV>We must be about due for another 'activity weekend'&nbsp; . . .</DIV>
<DIV>&nbsp;</DIV>
<DIV>Maybe there's a case for a 136 kHz amateur beacon or two, which could transmit for a few seconds each hour&nbsp;or so&nbsp;and would&nbsp;facilitate the checking of receive systems&nbsp; (?)</DIV>
<DIV>&nbsp;</DIV>
<DIV>Regards,</DIV>
