Since the Ionosphere seems to be quite "normal" over these days I have no explanation. Only the Troposphere conditions are unusual but I never heard of strong influences of weather on LF. May be an unknown effect... Rik Strobbe wrote: > [...] and DF3LP in slow CW also with 549. Both signals were > about 10dB above normal. Thanks! I estimated (empirically) the increase of strength at 5-7 dB due to my new loading coil. Methods: 1. Comparison of received signals (DBF39, "blop", Loran-C,...). 2. Field strength "measurement" with ferrite rod at 1.2 km of distance (near field...). 54°16'N / 10°04'E, JO54ag 73 es gl de Peter, DF3LP
