Although declared QRP Graham is only about 5dB worse S/N than his normal full power signal. The band was very quiet this morning. Come on guys here is something to play with....how far is he readable. I was using an 8sec integration time on FFTDSP4 (mainly to get the call on the screen) Well done Graham, I hope the PA lasts out, there is a slight sign of a sag at the end of some dashes. Probably the the effect of increased ground losses as all the worms congregate around your earth system for a sauna!! Cheers de Alan G3NYK Alan.Melia@btinternet.com
