Hi Jim,

Yes but the messages from VO1NA took much longer to decode at limilar 
distances. I don't know exactly, i think it was something between 4...6 
days to produce a decode at DL0AO ?
But that was with a longer TX period and in the deep winter. Not to 
think about the local noise differences and antenna directivity... Jay 
uses a pure omni-directional E field probe whereas DL0AO used a software 
combined cardioid antenna pointing to EW exactly.
In the end there are some uncertainties which makes it hard to determine 
the actual E-W/W-E attenuation. But it looks like something between 
10...20 dB is a good estimate.

Depending on the time it needs to produce a lucky 5 character decode at 
W1VD, i will soon move to 17.47 kHz again to start experimenting with 
Edgar in VK7, just a path of 16805 km 
(http://k7fry.com/grid/?qth=QE37PD35&from=jn49ik00wd).
Then at night we can try to transfer a message to W1VD at 17.47 kHz to 
see the difference of the attenuation. The old graphs suggest a big 
difference but i bet it is not much, maybe 6 dB.

73, Stefan

Jay and Stefan, and thanks Markus for the perspectives and reference
points. I have a rough recollection of Stefan’s estimated ERP, which
would seem to slightly more than offset a nominal E-W/W-E attenuation
ratio, making Markus’ two propagation observations particularly
interesting, as is the Forest question.</span><o:p></o:p></p>

Stefan, <br>
  <br>
really good work, truly amazing! <br>
  <br>
Noticing that Stefan hadn't sent another repeat last
night 24/25th, I wondered whether the experiment might have already
been concluded successfully - yes it had ;-)<br>
  <br>
Considering that Joe has been making the TA W-E path with only 10 uW,
in retrospective it seems not so surprising that Stefan's much stronger
signal managed to overcome the E-W nonreciprocity. On the other
hand, when Uwe had sent a very long carrier in March 2014,
no conclusive trace was ever detected in Virginia. Now I wonder
whether Stefan's recent transmission has also been picked up in Forest?<br>
  <br>
All the best,<br>
Markus (DF6NM)  <br>
