Hi Stefan,

 

The stn was on the air from yesterday 1442UTC until today 0856UTC

and sporadic ZOA in mode QRS30.


I didnt measure the PA output and I didnt measure the aerial current.
matching coils and PA  are located in a shed at abt 90m from the shack.
the shed is  shut. the key is somewhere hidden.

but Im doing something else: Im trying to meassure the FS using calibrated aerial and RX (ESH3).
but until now the noise makes the results problematic.
so I have to increase the output pwr step by step (day by day).
old days max pwr is not reached today. I estimate todays output pwr of 450W.

the max would be 750W.

750W is the  limit because otherwise (751W)  my= XYL would  agn shriek when touching her metal garden tools.

 

Oh horror: neighbors boy climbed our fence and asked my= wife if the fence wire is electric. No, she said, it isnt.

Secretly I connected a phasing tester to the fence wire:= yes, it was (electric).

VLF,

Today DJ8WX is as strong as before (March 2011). About 20 dB SNR in 47
uHz and traces in the 600-window.

Uwe, what is yout TX power and antenna current? What does your wife
think about that? :-)
