Next week i'll run a 1/2 marathon, so maybe in 2 weeks. BUT: I found that we have 2 generators here at the institute and i can=20 get both ;-) The small one has 1 kVA and the big one has 4.5 kVA. The=20 small one is very light weight (about 14 kg) so i will start with that=20 one in my next experiment. This means about 3 dB more power which=20 finally allows exceeding 100 mW ERP on 8970 Hz :-) vy 73, Stefan/DK7FC Am 27.03.2011 01:48, schrieb Stefan Sch=E4fer: > Dear LF/VLF group, > > Back in Germany i want to announce my next VLF kite experiment, as=20 > soon as possible.
