Sorry folks, I had to shut down at 13:10 due to
lack of wind. Many thanks for looking!

Hi Stefan, thanks for the observation! I am
approximately at 49.3851 N 11.1727 E. After a bit of fiddling with the coil, the
carrier is on 8970.002 since about 12:25. I will try to stay on till 14:00, but
there are a few lows as the wind has calmed down a bit.
73, Markus

There is a trace now coming up
slightly above 8970 Hz in the DFCW-600 window :-)
Markus, what is your
exact locator? http://no.nonsense.ee/qthmap/ Let
us see where you are currently :-)

Wow! Hi
Markus,
Good luck!! Yes, the wind is very strong indeed. For my kites
it is almost to strong...
With your kite you should easily be visible in
the 6000er window on 8970.
OOOH! I just looked on my 2nd VLF grabber http://www.iup.uni-heidelberg.de/schaefer_vlf/DK7FC_VLF_Grabber2.html
and saw your trace in DFCW-600!
Congratulations Markus!!!! This is the
second amateur radio station at all who reaches the far field within the 46km
band :-) i estimate 8 dB S/N maybe 10. Great!!!
So DFCW-600 on 8970
should be no problem later :-))
Who else of the group is monitoring? It
would strongly interest how Markus is received at other locations :-)
Best 73 and wish FUN!!

Nice wind here in Nuernberg, and I'm back on
the /p QTH with my small kite (100m wire, kite currently about 60m up).
Since 11:15 I am sending a carrier on 6470.00, trying to generate a
small peak on DK7FC's second grabber. Max current into the thin wire is
about 0.25 A. After one hour at 12:15, I
intend to switch to 8970.002 Hz, where I can radiate about 0.2 mW at 0.4
A.
