No one has suggested that experimenting on 136 khz should stop. Your Broadcast friend was amazed that you should try 1w ERP for communications on LF. He is not well informed. Marine Radio/Electonics Officers on ships and shore bases have been communication worldwide on 500 khz as the norm with very low ERP's and lower down in frequency the Aeronautical beacons have been heard over thousands of kilometres, they also have very low ERP's.( a few WATTS or less).When you get to 30 khz and below that is a totally different story. What Frontiers are we about to Cross. It has all been done before but some of us just want to re-invent the wheel and have some fun. Think of all the real DX that we are missing on the other bands and all the real drama on the Satellite and Gigahertz bands not to mention 160 Metres hi 73 de Mal/G3KEV(operational on all of these bands but spending too much time on 136 khz )
