BTW I looked at your web site some months ago and was inspired by the improvement your 'top hat' made. In fact that's the very improvement I'm planning here, but need to lower the mast first. Will stay in touch via this reflector. 73 Malcolm IO91WC ----- Original Message ----- From: "John P-G GM4SLV" To: Sent: Tuesday, September 16, 2008 1:40 PM Subject: Re: LF: PSK31 on 500kHz? Hello chaps, LF, Although my planned linear tranmitter is still on the perpetual drawing board, I can certainly provide remote decoding facilities, over a nice long path, the longest you'll get in the UK. In fact I'm probably further away than most of F/DL/PA is, from you point of view, at 700-1000km I'd guestimate. I'll keep an eye out for when you start your PSK31 tests. Of course you can also keep a lookout for your signals at: http://www.gm4slv.org/grabber2.htm Cheers, John GM4SLV IP90GG Clousta, Shetland > Hi Brian & James. > > Many thanks for getting back about this.
