Hi all in the USA and beyond.

Is there anyone suitably equipped over there to try for a CW two way on 137 khz. If anyone is ready I will rig the LF antenna system and have a go.

I will arrange a field day event. The antenna system would consist of 3 radio towers each over 100 ft high with a suitable LF antenna attached covering approx 5 acres. I have only used one tower in the past but will make a bigger effort if there is any interest in W or VE land.

I have been heard on the east coast USA on CW a few years ago and about the same time W4DEX was able to see my signal over an hour before his sunset.

I would bet a QSO is possible given reasonable propogation but each end must be suitably equipped with around 1W erp.

Looking forward to a positive response.
