Hi Laurence,

Yes, try that test with Scott. 2000 km is nothing, HI. I assume you have 
less QRN than in EU and the path is mostly above water. We have seen 
here what can be achieved with some 100 uW ERP.

About the windows: Of course a wideband window is fine to check conds 
and the noise situation. A "6000" window may be suitable although even a 
bit optimistic.

That would be the first VLF test above 1 Lambda in USA by amateurs, right?

73, GL, Stefan

pre Eu dawn signals are way down from mid winter Stefan, but that
signature&nbsp;increase&nbsp;on DHO38 signal between 0500 and 0700Z is still
there. Looks to me like a mid winter&nbsp;opportunity only on this 2 x
Auroral oval path at this range, but I could be mistaken. The loop is
tensioned from movement by an ice screw in the&nbsp;lake and given the
increasing temps Im sure it will come dislodged sooner than later - the
other side is tensioned to a Birch tree so I&nbsp;dont think it will move.
If Scott warms up his #2 Ill have to get someone to turn the array as
hes in a&nbsp;Cosine null at the moment.<br>
&nbsp;<br>
Ill take a look at the processor and see what gives&nbsp;but welcome any
direction on speeds/fft longterm so I can leave one or two screens up
longer term without frying the proc.. <br>
&nbsp;<br>
Not sure if Ill be in the same location by next winter :-(( Your going
to have to work out how to get an antennae up and stable in the latter
part of the&nbsp;of the Eu&nbsp;night for this path to work me thinks :-)))<br>
&nbsp;<br>

Hello Laurence, <br>
  <br>
No hope for the end of the season? Maybe you are right, unfortunately.
But you'll come back in the next season, isn't it? :-) Or maybe just
reducing to wideband and 6000 or so? A pity...<br>
But thanks for the service and the intersting location to watch and
sharing the optimism!!<br>
Maybe we'll see what can be done in Greenland, that's a next step into
your direction, about...<br>
  <br>
73 and good luck, <br>
