Rightly said, Jay. Where are you all out
there?
Anyway I'll stay in listening mode tonight.
Grabbers running on 137 kHz as usual for Bob, Joe, Stefan and everyone
else, and also on 8270 Hz which is being illuminated by Uwe.

Alternate nights is fine by me. Things have
gotten a bit boring on LF lately ... same old, same old. Gone are the days of
stations actively transmitting from a number of EU countries, BIG antenna tests
from RU6LA, HB9 etc, ZL6QH Quartz Hill ops etc.

Hi Stefan, Bob, all,
just wondering if it makes much sense if everyone
was transmitting at the same time. This may work out well during a
dedicated "WSPR night" with alternate slots, but not so well with QRSS or DFCW
beacons, as none of us can simultaneously receive and transmit on the
same band. Who's listening then?
In my opinion, it would be better if as many
as possible Europeans (not only Germans) would transmit during one night,
and all available listeners (Jay and Dex very much appreciated, who
else?) would be watching and uploading grabs from the other side. The next
night we swap roles, many beacons from America and grabbers in
Europe.
Just my five cents... shoot it down if you
want!

Stefan; I was waiting to see what you were planning for
tonight. You start much earlier there of course and around 2300 I be
back home. I am tuned up on 137 band and will see what you are doing at
that time and if still on WSPR 15 I will fire up alternate quarter hours as
usual or go to QRSS60 if you changed-Bob

Bob, what are you planniung for tonite? What is the plan? :-) Just
thought about some WSPR-15 but DFCW-90 just gives better results (valid
detections) than WSPR. Due to the public database, WSPR is more popular
though, for some OMs. So it all has it's advantage... Think i'll start with
WSPR now and may switch back to DGCW later. 73,
