Although there was a detection at 7 km, this was probably via conduction from a nearby mains line. The RX is a DK7FC VLF probe and Spec Lab on a laptop. The next logical step is to try QRSS120 to get past the 5.78 km boundary. To my abject dismay, when doing: Quick Settings/ Slow Morse Reception(QRSS)/ Slow CW, 120 s/dot/ Enter AUDIO centre frequency (8277 entered) / OK/no; the spectrum screen scrolls across completely blank and the real time spectrum on the right shows a flat line. Going back to QRSS60, all is just fine. Am I or the computer malfunctioning again? Many thanks Joe VO1NA
