Dear LF Group,
I made an estimate of SAQ's field strength, using a
loop antenna and SLM, which came out to 130uV/m. It is around 1000km to Grimeton
from my QTH, for which the ERP works out to about 340W - which seems very low.
Ground wave losses could account for a few more dB, but I'm sure SAQ used to be
stronger than this - I can't find any immediate fault with the equipment or the
calculation, and other signals come out about the right level. Has anybody else
found SAQ to be weaker than it used to be?
Cheers, Jim Moritz
