This morning they were transmitting around 136,7 khz and their signal is very strong here (distance 110 km): 599! The site they are transmitting from is called "Fuchskaute" which is the highest mountain (658 m above sealevel) in the "WESTERWALD* There is a nice small hotel on top which has very acceptable rates (rates for radio-amateurs!)* They are using a 30 m high triple top T-antenna which Walter has built especially for this activity and it seems to work very well* Their signal also has a small chirp which might be useful to identify it* The VFO had a small drift as well* They, however, reported strong QRM from other commercial LF-stations - whatever this means (Luxembourg-effect, frontend overload, or the intermods from Mainflingen)* I certainly hope that many of you have the oportunity to work these fellows even though DA0LF(DJ8WL) was not able to participate this time* But we already started talking about the next one* Pse QSL to the operators* 73, Peter (DJ8WL/DA0LF)
