Hello Rik,
I just started to monitor WSPR-2 on MF, to get a decode from you.
However it looks like you went QRT since 22 UTC (?).
I'm TXing WSPR-15 on LF over the night, 50% ratio. But between the
transmissions i can detect on MF!

Hello Stefan,
I hope just some days. Meanwhile I can transmit WSPR, WSJT-X etc...
A short WSPR test got me a decode from G3XKR at 630 km. Last
winter I got reports from up to 2000 km (on 501 kHz) with the same rig.

Hi Rik,
Good news! I hope to meet you on the band soon when the PA is working
again. How long will it take to repair it?
Will you try WSPR during that time, using QRP?

Dear all,
from today on Belgian holders of a HAREC licence are allowed to
use 472-479 kHz with 5 W EIRP on secondary base. No mode limitations.
So far the good news.
Bad news is that I started up the TX (after some months of rest)
and after one minute the was a "bang". A short check showed that the PS
failed (went from 15V to 22V). The PS was fixed (15V stabilisator
replaced), but the 22V also destroyed some IC's that are not on the
sheft in my shack. I have to order them and it can take some tome
to get QRV with full power (250W).
Fortunately I stille have the 6W transverter working, so I can
be QRV with low power (estimated ERP = 20 mW) from now on.
