I can look again at my screen grab if I know where, but I have to look in very narrow bandwidths for some hours to make out anything distant on VLF. BTW, your Spectrum Lab bandwidth looks very wide and although this may be OK for the stronger stations you will have to use MSK locking or similar and much narrower settings to see G3XIZ for example. I know you are less keen on this sort of testing, but Chris would appreciate a report from you I am sure. Also, you would be much better with direct reception on VLF rather than mixing up first as this is another source of frequency error best avoided when searching for weak signals with narrow FFT settings. Good luck and keep looking! 73s Roger G3XBM On 9 March 2011 12:17, mal hamilton wrote: > What I am observing at present > g3kev > > ----- Original Message ----- > *From:* Roger Lapthorn > *To:* rsgb_lf_group@blacksheep.org > *Sent:* Wednesday, March 09, 2011 10:58 AM > *Subject:* Re: LF: Re: 8970.025Khz > > Will that be the 3-el triband Mal? > > More seriously, people do appreciate you looking.
