Just joined this LF group to have a plug for Telford & DARS Int. Marconi Day annual visit to Tywyn in Gwynedd, west Wales, site of the Marconi receive station MUV 1913-23..

Would welcome any skeds leading to QSOs. Callsign GB8MD

CW around 474 KHz, kite antenna (weather permitting - otherwise long, low wire...) from about 10:00z until about 17:00z.

Loc: IO72XN, WAB SH50. Or take a look at genuine Marconi Cottages by our /P site using postcode LL36 9HN on Google street or satellite views.

TX about 25 watts (GW3UEP design), CW. Receiver converter & HF rig.

Skeds via HF GB8MD station, or phone me on 07932 927887 during Saturday.

Active most HF bands all day Saturday, but no fixed programme or schedule.

Please let anyone who is QRV on 472KHz know about this activity. Last year I had 1.5 QSOs, so hope to improve on that.

Hello Martyn,

thanks for the announcement but I´m afraid 10:00z until 17:00z is not the best time to make MF QSOs above let´s say about 50 km. Today at 15:00z I checked two British Perseus stations where I´m able to hear my signal rather strong every night - but at this time of the afternoon no trace of it even in spite of maximum power level (www.qrz.com/db/dk1is). I´ve checked my logbook too: nary MF QSO before about 18:00z since getting QRV on this band. But anyway tomorrow I´ll try to get you. Perhaps it´s possible for you to extend your working hours into the later evening.

Gl, cul es vy 73,
