Just got back from dinner. Laurie's signal has been in and out -- not
great
copy, but it's there. No sign of Jim or Peter thus far, but the night is
young. ...I used to be, too...
Didn't we all!
Just checked the transmitter in the outside LF transmitting shack before
turning in. It is a cold clear night with the outside temperature just above
freezing. Plastic sheet covering the outside coils covered in frost except
for around the top where it has not formed. Temperature in shack was around
2 degrees at the start of transmission and has now risen to 5degrees now the
transmitter has been on for an hour and a half
Power down a bit because only running on two modules (had a minor disaster
with the third one!). However, the main limitation is PSU so still running 3
amps into the antenna.
Would appreciate frequency check if anyone is listening - the DDS unit is in
the cold outside shack.
