Conducting pre arranged TESTS with you to optimise performance at
both stations is far more gratifying Amateur Radio than "ur 599
...... i did it first.............. i am the best in the
world........ so you wont wk any one else.... 73 om"

LF,
Thanks to Eddie (Northampton), Roger (nr Cambridge) and
Paul (Todmorden) for the reports and screen shots.
The kite is still aloft despite nearly snagging a nearby
tree several times.
The wind is gusting and changing direction quite rapidly
which is causing big fluctuations in aerial current. The
max current is about 0.25A min about 0.15A
I estimate the aerial height as being between 40 - 50m
(occasionally down to 15m!) with 70m of total wire run
out.
Provided the wind doesn't shift too far to the East (where
there's danger of snagging house TV aerials) and the kite
doesn't break free I'll leave the set up as it is.

Now on DFCW600 4.5mHz where Chris is showing 10dB
above the noise floor. The best signal yet.
N.B There is a frequency step in the display, it is
not Chris sending DFCW it is my end.

LF,
I have been transmitting since 05.02Z and
have managed to get my kite aerial
flying since 06.15
The supporting pole is bending at an
alarming angle so I may lose the kite soon
!
So look for me now before it breaks free -
HI !
