Hi Andy,=20

just shifted my Eu-grabber a few Hz up, and Bingo there's your fine signal.=
 Albeit a bit clobbered up by my local transmissions on 137705 Hz.

If you went a few Hz down to below 136175 Hz you'd surely be picked up by s=
everal European grabbers (e.g. DK7FC).

Best 73,
Markus (DF6NM)

Betreff: Re: LF: QRSS activity this weekend


Having just put the 137kHz system back together, cobbled together an on-off=
 modulator and reprogrammed a beacon keyer module for QRSS...
I [think]  there's a SlowCW-30  signal going out on 136.179kHz,  which is a=
 few Hz above where Mike said he'd be running in the evening.


Its so long since I've done this on-off stuff hope I've chosen a suitable f=
requency.  It can be shifted at a moments notice if requested.

As noted by Andy, G4JNT, recently, this week is the 20th anniversary
 of the very first Slow CW (now called QRSS) transmission which was
 between G3PLX and Andy on the old 73kHz band.

 To commemorate this I will be using QRSS on the 136kHz band today,
 Saturday and Sunday.

 Daytime and early evening I will be using QRSS3 (3 second dot length)
 and occasionally QRSS10 (10s dots) on or near 137.690kHz looking for
 two-way contacts.

 Late evening and nighttime, I will transmit my callsign on
 136.1722kHz using QRSS60, each transmission starting on the odd
 hours, ie 2100, 2300, 0100 . . . .

 Reports on this activity would be helpful

 Anyone needing info on how to receive QRSS could look at ON7YD's web
 site or send me an email.
