On the second shot I messed with the Argo timing to try to get a full call set on one shot but that was a mistake so I set it back to fast. Also on the second shot I calibrated the frequency scale. Time shown is EST (-5:00 UTC). The last traces of your signal was seen at 0724 UTC. http://dmcintyre.home.att.net/CT1DRP12feb01.jpg http://dmcintyre.home.att.net/CT1DRPb12feb01.jpg I entered your location into a range and bearing program called BD. This program has proven to be very reliable for microwave work but it has not tracked exactly with other programs for distances to Europe. If I entered your location correctly BD shows you in grid IN51qd and a distance of 6137.011 km. I am located in EM95tg at 35 15 22 N -080 22 48 W. This location is several hundred kilometers inland. Your signal was also seen by Jon W1JHJ of Plymouth, Massachusetts. He alerted me to your signal on the LWCA reflector, lowfer@qth.net. I'm not sure if he is subscribed to the rsgb lf reflector. I will contact him for a report if you wish. Thanks for your effort to transmit a fine LF signal. 73, Dexter, W4DEX Brian Rogerson wrote: > > Thank you Dexter and yes please.
