OK. 
  OK. dreamers, the TX is on the air since 1309UTC. 
QRG: 8270.000Hz.
WX: 
  continuous rain but not so strong.
when ever the order comes, I can switch 
  to Op-4H.

  Fw: VLF: 8.275 kHz
  
  
  Paul Nicholson put 
  forth the important argument that we'd better stay away from 8280 because it's 
  a multiple of 60 Hz. Mains harmonics tend to drift a bit with the line 
  frequeny so further away is better. 
   
  
  Thus I retract my 
  preposition, and suggest instead to stay with the original 8270 
  Hz.
   
  Uwe, go 
  ahead!

  PS Direct harmonics 
  from 16.67 Hz are relatively weak here, even though the railway is only 400 m 
  away. It looks more like carriers from switchmode power 
  conversion units (eg near 8 kHz), accompanied by the telltale 
  33 Hz spaced sidebands. Unfortunately these frequencies are not easily 
  predictable.

8970 is well placed with respect to harmonics of
both 50 
  and 60Hz.
8270/8275 not so good in a 60Hz region.
8124 to 8126 
  would be a good range, considering
harmonics of 16.67Hz, 50Hz, and 
  60Hz.
Let me know what is decided, I will switch my spectrogram
over 
  to the new band.
