Good morning Mauro -  Loop dimensions appx  - 20m verticals=2C around 35m h=
orizontals=2C lower horizontal about 3m above ground. Fed at one lower corn=
er of the loop. ERP is less than 1W ish in the main lobe at the moment.

Ive worked over the pole on HF/20m this morning so thats a good sign or dir=
ection but a long way to go before I start to see or be heard.

 I see we are still forecasting more "stuff" from the sun so Im not confide=
nt at the moment.The negative affects are pretty immediate.

Chaps - Thanks for the reports from the other stations - nil heard by anyon=
e that reported=2C but  the TS850 as the driver shakedown proved successful=
. Because the output is low from the 850 pre driver (-20dBm or so into 50 o=
hms)t Im using a 4046 to produce a 5V square wave from the low level "sine"=
=2C then driving it into a TC4426 driver at 12V for the Decca - Nice to see=
 the room light dimming a bit on key down :-)
