Hello Scott,
Thanks for the very interesting information.
Can you explain why DLF or the algerian stn is almost 50 dB S/N but
DCF39 is not visible at all?
Do you expect a beacon transmission from Germany could be successfully
received at VE7TIL?
On your advice / request i can immediately start beacon transmissions,
each night if wanted, no problem at all.
My variometer is not automatic so far and usually i resonate the antenna
to 137.7 kHz. Thus, i can QSY say +- 70 Hz but not much more. I'm afraid
people become angry if i would TX in the TA band but i cannot QSY to
136.177 in the moment.
So, if you would like to test with me, maybe you can run a temporary
extra SL instance on a frequency of your choise arround 137.7. I would
then try to leave a trace on your grabber, beeing an optimist, you know ;-)
Would use a mode of your choice (DFCW or QRSS=
So tell me if you want to try!
Looking forward to the season.

Hi All
After a computer crash, I needed to restore some corrupted files on
the dedicated grabber computer. This is done and the grabber is again
posting to the internet.
Over the last two days the trans-Pacific path has dramatically
reopened for the first time in months. Condx appear good! See the
153KHz Plot for just how good! Keep a close eye here as we approach
Fall as the EU dx will start to appear. Usually the Algerian station
appears first...
PS - I'm stilled vexed 18 hours a day with interference from a local
illegal grow-op. The interference shouldn't affect my ability to hear
too badly its just more irritating than anything else... The
residence has been identified and the police have received a complaint
so it should disappear along with a tenant in my area soon...
VLF grabber and audio stream remain active.
