Geri.

Below 72kHz seems to be quieter for us here due to the QRM from Rugby on
73.3 and all its' sidebands.
If it is quieter with you somewhere else in the band then we could transmit
there..
My problem is that, with the antenna resonated on 73k, the receive
performance on 136 is degraded but it may be worth a try some time. Let me
know when you would like to try, I'm sure Jim will also be interested.

original message:

just returned from a trip to the US (no LF gear ...) and heard about the
successes of Markus, DF6NM in receiving 73 kHz signals from the UK.

Now I got curious and set up my receiving station for that band as well
(crossband 73/136 should also be possible with my current setup). What is
the best frequency? Is it 71.800 kHz? Currently I am standby in SCW there
and will see, what I can see. Who is QRV when?
