Content preview: XPQ Alaska went off air at 1700Z after a 72 hour run; the QTX 100W did great at the high duty cycle. No decodes at OP8 but I was on a odd dial freq and Auroral activity probably precluded long haul. thanks for looking. Interesting looking at the 50 mile mark during the day the odd 30 sec or so increase of signal by up to 3dB , with a rise time of less than 10 secs - but no loss equivalent reduce if it was a phase cancel/add issue. K was over 5 at times so probably some Auroral "D ish" stuff too. I recall a project I was on in Antarctica some 35 years ago looking at daytime D layer scintillation using around 1600kHz during Geo stormy or "holy" activity so I need to reread what we were doing.... :-) Dr. Piggott was leading the charge from memory. Lots of Heathkit gear with an early Synth.. I may be up again later but will advise Laurence KL1X WE2 XPQWasilla Alaska [...] Content analysis details: (-0.6 points, 5.0 required) pts rule name description ---- ---------------------- -------------------------------------------------- -0.0 RCVD_IN_DNSWL_NONE RBL: Sender listed at http://www.dnswl.org/, no trust [65.55.116.24 listed in list.dnswl.org] 0.0 FREEMAIL_FROM Sender email is commonly abused enduser mail provider (hellozerohellozero[at]hotmail.com) -0.0 SPF_PASS SPF: sender matches SPF record -0.6 RP_MATCHES_RCVD Envelope sender domain matches handover relay domain 0.0 HTML_MESSAGE BODY: HTML included in message X-Scan-Signature: ce0e5a4ae990e5a63db3ab7aea21191b Content-Type: multipart/alternative; boundary="_4a3b8548-c381-4778-aa2a-5a29e370ccee_" Subject: LF: XPQ offair and Auroral stuff X-Spam-Checker-Version: SpamAssassin 2.63 (2004-01-11) on post.thorcom.com X-Spam-Level: X-Spam-Status: No, hits=0.0 required=5.0 tests=FORGED_HOTMAIL_RCVD, HTML_MESSAGE,TO_ADDRESS_EQ_REAL autolearn=no version=2.63 X-SA-Exim-Scanned: Yes Sender: owner-rsgb_lf_group@blacksheep.org Precedence: bulk Reply-To: rsgb_lf_group@blacksheep.org X-Listname: rsgb_lf_group X-SA-Exim-Rcpt-To: rs_out_1@blacksheep.org X-SA-Exim-Scanned: No; SAEximRunCond expanded to false x-aol-global-disposition: G x-aol-sid: 3039ac1d600a51366d6602a9 X-AOL-IP: 195.171.43.25 X-AOL-SPF: domain : blacksheep.org SPF : none --_4a3b8548-c381-4778-aa2a-5a29e370ccee_ Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable XPQ Alaska went off air at 1700Z after a 72 hour run=3B the QTX 100W did gr= eat at the high duty cycle.
