Re: LF: LU LF DX camp ( Rx Only ) - FKP-1-2kV

Markus, Alex, LF,

Just preparing the new PA and matching system again, for 6 dB QRO. Will try to use that tonite for a 12 Mm DX ;-)

Replaced the old tank circuit caps by a more suitable cap combination, should handle 500 W CW without problems.

Alex, wish you good luck there and hope the band is clean and your RX stable.

Thanks Alejandro for the info. I intend to join Stefan somewhere within 0.3 Hz of his QRG, even though I have little hope that my radiated 200 mW will make it all the way to South America.

 

It will be interesting to see if and when someone from North America will be visible. Apart from the UA0 to ZL contacts, I think we haven't had too much experience with LF transequatorial paths.

 

Best wishes and good luck for your expedition,

Markus (DF6NM / JN59NJ)
