Re: LF: Last night

[lawrence mayhead <laurie.mayhead@googlemail.com>]

Hi Laurence,
Thanks for watching last night, but I am not so sure that there was nothing from me. Have a look at your trace at 21:00
I see what might be the last 3 elements of "C". The freq is right, also the freq shift. The element length is also right (middle dash attenuated)
and the timing is pretty good. I started transmitting at 20:00 the sequence AQC taking 67 secs. thus the start of  the last char "C" would be
just under an hour from the start. Mebbe wishful thinking !
Can't get on tonight but will try again whenever you are watching. (120 sec slow is a good option and the equipment can cope)
What we need of course is a "lift" like we used to get, but with the present quiet Sun, not likely I guess.
Thanks for your concern re. my health, I am battling on.
73 Laurie.

Thanks for the signals Gents - nothing seen of you last night Laurie.
 
Reasonable DFCW signals from WPF just above you, but QRN wasnt helping. Ill run it again tonight 138.318/320 dot 90 slow Eu or Asia wants to try.
 
 Noise peaks last night -70dBm  which is very similar levels to Singapore but the QRN duty cycle is reduced.
 
Around 30 days more ops from here before we have to pull the plug.

OK Laurence,
I will beacon again from 19:00 UTC until about 22:00 UTC
Freq 136.320 kHz. DFCW, element length 240 secs. (Dashes 0.15hz low ) This is going to stretch my un-ovened master
Xtal somewhat, but expected drift not more than 0.1Hz down.
Message "A Q C" repeated at 70mins intervals.
Not at home Sat. night so all rests on tonight.
