Betreff: LF: JT9 on LF

Hello Chris,

I see you are strong again on LF. I started my JT9 RX here on LF. However the QRN rised extremely since the afternoon.

The latest versions only support JT9-1. This was successfully used by several stations on MF some months ago. For LF, a frequency below 137.45 should be used, to avoid collisions with OP32, WSPR and EbNaut transmitters. So just try 137.4 kHz. I'm watching there for you now. If your U3S does not support JT9-1, maybe there are firmware updates?

Listening stations and contacts are also listed at https://www.pskreporter.info/pskmap.html, select the JT9 mode at 2200m to filter the list...

73, Stefan

Hello DK7FC,

I have never tried JT9, but it appears my U3S exciter covers that
mode. What time span (there's JT9-2 upwards it seems), and what
frequency is appropriate? I am happy to give it a shot!
