Hello Claudio,

Well, somehow it is both. An amplitude modulated DC voltage (carrier 
frequency = 0) will radiate the same like an AC voltage of the same 
amplitude :-) And then you can modulate that amplitude modulation again, 
e.g. in BPSK or FM. Actually it is like done in any linear mode PA.
It will be an electromagnetic transmission, but we would then like to 
see a detection in the far field or in 1 wavelength distance or above.

Maybe it could work on LF?
Maybe i will build up such an experiment tomorrow.
The local LF grabber and of course the great SpectrumLab software will 
help to measure and display the signal level! This will give a first 
impression. Even charged raindrops will help to play the game! Something 
like a new mode? Like rain-scatter in the GHz range ;-)
Thought a bit longer about the circuit configuration: The antenna could 
be discharged by an IRF710 which has a low output capacity and holds 400 
V. At 137 kHz the on-time (T/2) is 3.65 us and if one wants to spend a 
discharge resistor (to lower the bandwidth of the radiated spectrum), 
100 Ohm may be a good value for a 470 pF antenna.
A plot showing the signal level over time will show which levels can be 
expected. Then we may try to pass an EbNaut message over to DF6NM and 
his EbNaut autodecoder? The message could be repeated again and again, 
for weeks! And then maybe suddenly will appear on the autodecoder 
website!?????

73, Stefan

that i'd like to share the email with the</p>
  <p style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0px;">&gt; reflector, because
i've a thought that might be interesting.</p>
  <p style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0px;">&gt; </p>
  <p style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0px;">&gt; In my view, the Loomis
experiment it is rather the detection of a</p>
  <p style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0px;">&gt; changing current
(charge per time) on the RX site. The changing current</p>
  <p style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0px;">&gt; is coming from a
change in the static electric field, caused by the</p>
  <p style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0px;">&gt; shortcutted 'TX'
antenna. Something like a current divider.</p>
  <p style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0px;">&gt; </p>
  <p style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0px;">&gt; In 2010/2011 i've done
VLF transmissions on my own, using a 300m</p>
  <p style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0px;">&gt; vertical kite antenna
(having a special licence for that altitude). The</p>
  <p style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0px;">&gt; antenna capacity was
about 1.5 nF. During an experiment in the summer</p>
  <p style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0px;">&gt; time there was a short
moment when the vertical wire was floating. It</p>
  <p style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0px;">&gt; quickly charged up to
some kV, which was quite noticable when i catched</p>
  <p style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0px;">&gt; and touched the wire
then!! Since that time i carefully kept the wire</p>
  <p style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0px;">&gt; grounded during such
experiments.</p>
  <p style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0px;">&gt; So, it means that the
wire charged up, so there must be some continuous</p>
  <p style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0px;">&gt; charge flowing onto
the wire and, if the wire would be grounded</p>
  <p style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0px;">&gt; permanently, you could
probably measure a more or less stable current, i</p>
  <p style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0px;">&gt; guess it would be some
100 uA.</p>
  <p style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0px;">&gt; Now imagine someone
else would rise a grounded kite in a few meters</p>
  <p style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0px;">&gt; distance. This would
certainly affect the current flowing in my kite</p>
  <p style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0px;">&gt; wire. The farer both
'antennas', the lower expressed the effect will be</p>
  <p style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0px;">&gt; and the higher the
antennas, the stronger it will be expressed.</p>
  <p style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0px;">&gt; </p>
  <p style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0px;">&gt; I think the effect
would be much better expressed by measuring the</p>
  <p style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0px;">&gt; voltage across a 1
MOhm resistor instead, which could be done by using a</p>
  <p style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0px;">&gt; scope and some
overvoltage protection!</p>
  <p style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0px;">&gt; Actually an
interesting question: In the summer time, which DC voltage</p>
  <p style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0px;">&gt; could be measured over
a 1 MOhm resistor when connecting to a large E</p>
  <p style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0px;">&gt; field antenna and
ground?</p>
  <p style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0px;">&gt; And, a next step: If i
let my antenna charge up (floating) and then</p>
  <p style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0px;">&gt; discharge it in exact
time intervals, say each second, then i should see</p>
  <p style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0px;">&gt; something at 1 Hz on a
suitable receiver. This would already come close</p>
  <p style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0px;">&gt; to the experiment i'v
done. I'm just replacing the 'natural charge</p>
  <p style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0px;">&gt; source' by a high
voltage power supply and modulate that voltage (with a</p>
  <p style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0px;">&gt; sine wave, not
rectangular).</p>
  <p style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0px;">&gt; </p>
  <p style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0px;">&gt; So, to answer your
question, i think that Loomis experiment was not</p>
  <p style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0px;">&gt; dedicated ELF, it was
rather a broad-band spectrum that was radiated,</p>
  <p style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0px;">&gt; since the charged
antenna was discharged immediately. For a real ELF</p>
  <p style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0px;">&gt; transmission i would
say that the carrier frequency has to be at ELF,</p>
  <p style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0px;">&gt; not the modulating
frequency. OK here you might say the carrier</p>
  <p style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0px;">&gt; frequency is 0 and it
is AM modulated...</p>
  <p style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0px;">&gt; </p>
  <p style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0px;">&gt; Try to repeat the
experiment! Use smaller antennas and shorter</p>
  <p style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0px;">&gt; distances. Could be
interesting :-) Rise two 10m high wires in 10m</p>
  <p style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0px;">&gt; distance in an open
field. Connect one of them to a scope (1 MOhm input</p>
  <p style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0px;">&gt; resistance), protect
the input with a glow lamp. Keep the other wire</p>
  <p style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0px;">&gt; floating. Select 1
second/div. If there is a thunderstorm coming and you</p>
  <p style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0px;">&gt; can see a rising DC
level on the scope, then do a shortcircuit on the</p>
  <p style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0px;">&gt; other wire. I bet you
will see the voltage dropping on the scope.</p>

  <p style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0px;">&gt; &gt; Hi Jacek and
Stefan, I’d like to suggest that while I can’t say for</p>
  <p style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0px;">&gt; &gt; sure there
weren't ELF frequencies received in the Loomis experiment</p>
  <p style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0px;">&gt; &gt; of 1866, I’m
hesitant to reach the conclusion ELF was used by</p>
  <p style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0px;">&gt; &gt; Loomis because of
the following questions.</p>
  <p style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0px;">&gt; &gt; 1) If the
transient current that flowed when Loomis’ transmitter</p>
  <p style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0px;">&gt; &gt; circuit was
closed probably lasted only a few milliseconds, wouldn’t</p>
  <p style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0px;">&gt; &gt; the modulation
frequency content *exceed at least the upper ELF</p>
  <p style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0px;">&gt; &gt; boundary 30Hz* as
impressed on the “carrier”?</p>
  <p style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0px;">&gt; &gt; 2) With a 600’
long TX antenna and only a galvanometer fed by similar</p>
  <p style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0px;">&gt; &gt; height RX
antenna, wouldn’t any radio waves that might have been</p>
  <p style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0px;">&gt; &gt; received be
shorter than 10x the wavelength for which a 600’ TX</p>
  <p style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0px;">&gt; &gt; antenna is a
quarter wavelength? 10x(600’x4)=24000’ or about 8km. If</p>
  <p style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0px;">&gt; &gt; the wavelength is
less than about 8km, wouldn’t the “carrier”</p>
  <p style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0px;">&gt; &gt; frequency content
exceed about *37 KHz*?</p>
  <p style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0px;">&gt; &gt; 3) Nevertheless,
one might say, if galvanometer deflected temporarily</p>
  <p style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0px;">&gt; &gt; in Loomis’
system, it must have detected some near-DC content unless</p>
  <p style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0px;">&gt; &gt; some nonlinear
element were in the receiving circuit. If I Fourier</p>
  <p style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0px;">&gt; &gt; Transform a
damped DC transient, what is the frequency content?</p>
  <p style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0px;">&gt; &gt; 4) If there were
DC transfer, wouldn't we say it's in the nature of a</p>
  <p style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0px;">&gt; &gt; current charging
an atmosphere-ground capacitance through the ground</p>
  <p style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0px;">&gt; &gt; resistance, not
radio in near field ELF? Or should we say the meaning</p>
  <p style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0px;">&gt; &gt; of “frequency” in
this case becomes so fuzzy that Loomis both did and</p>
  <p style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0px;">&gt; &gt; didn’t use ELF?</p>
  <p style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0px;">&gt; &gt; 5) If indeed
Loomis communicated any ELF, can’t one still radically</p>
  <p style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0px;">&gt; &gt; distinguish the
12.67 Hz experiment at DK7FC as involving a very</p>
  <p style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0px;">&gt; &gt; narrow band
continuous wave with 227 hours integration of this</p>
  <p style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0px;">&gt; &gt; continuous wave
to detect it and make it separable from other waves</p>
  <p style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0px;">&gt; &gt; that could be
generated in the ELF band?</p>
  <p style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0px;">&gt; &gt; I’m new to the
subject of ELF, and would appreciate any words of</p>
  <p style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0px;">&gt; &gt; wisdom you’d like
to give.</p>

  <p style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0px;">&gt; &gt; Actually a
similar experiment to Stefan's has been done already, and at</p>
  <p style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0px;">&gt; &gt; much lower
frequencies (almost 0Hz :):</p>

Hz</p>
  <p style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0px;">&gt; &gt; Hi ELF friends,
During the last 2 weeks i've done another experiment</p>
  <p style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0px;">&gt; &gt; on ELF, this time</p>
  <p style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0px;">&gt; &gt; on 12.47 Hz, the
24 Mm band (wavelength 24057 km). Again i've crossed</p>
  <p style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0px;">&gt; &gt; the local
distance of 3.5 km. That's the lowest frequency i've ever</p>
  <p style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0px;">&gt; &gt; been and it feels
like i can see the ground already :-) The dimensions</p>
  <p style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0px;">&gt; &gt; of everything
down there are extreme. I've integrated 227 hours of a</p>
  <p style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0px;">&gt; &gt; carrier
transmission into one spectrum peak, it is shown in the</p>
  <p style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0px;">&gt; &gt; attachment in
1.25 uHz. This carrier could have transferred an EbNaut</p>
  <p style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0px;">&gt; &gt; message of nearly
100 characters.</p>
  <p style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0px;">&gt; &gt; </p>
  <p style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0px;">&gt; &gt; The ERP was 50
attowatt or -163 dBW and the antenna current was 170 uA</p>
  <p style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0px;">&gt; &gt; only, despite
about 5 kV antenna voltage.</p>
  <p style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0px;">&gt; &gt; </p>
  <p style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0px;">&gt; &gt; I'm now trying to
put a step below 10 Hz but the RX antenna becomes</p>
  <p style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0px;">&gt; &gt; less efficient
with each Hz. 73, Stefan</p>
  <p style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0px;"> </p>
