Jay W1VD WD2XNS WE2XGR/2 ----- Original Message ----- From: "Stefan Schäfer" To: Sent: Saturday, November 28, 2009 5:36 AM Subject: LF: DK7FC/p qrv this evening on 137kHz Dear Lowfers, This is my first mail to the reflector and so i want to say hello to all :-) It´s nice to be able to participate now here although my activity will stay on the band mostly ;-) If there will be no weather problems this evening I will agn be qrv on 137 in CW (abt 136,8) and/or QRSS3. Since abt 3 weeks I am qrv again. Since I live in a city I have no possibilities to be on LF, even not in RXing (QRM)... Therefore and cause I like to be in the nature I am now qrv in /p. I use a kite antenna, 100m up (!). This should have a radiation resistance of 0,83 Ohms. My overall resistance is abt 30...55 Ohms, depending on the ground a achieve. So you can imagine abt the ERP. I have a 1KW class E PA that I use with limited power. But The ERP easily reaches the 1W ERP limit, as one can imagine.. My RX is still poor but I am working on a receiving loop. Now, I use the TX ant for receiving that causes some problems ;-) It would be nice to get some QSOs or even RX-RPRTs tonight. Until now I got 2 QSOs in each activity ;-) Best regards, Stefan / DK7FC
