Hartmut says it's good at his location and am sure OK in UK,et.
Please Make announcement and I will follow with an announcement to hopefully get everyone on line-Bob

Hi Bob,
unfortunately 74612 won't
work here, regarding DCF it's not better than 613 or 614.
I'd vote for 74322 (72.7 kHz dial + 1622 Hz audio)
for tonight, as it's
- close to a minimum of DCF77,
- between European Loran lines, as confirmed by
calculations and Hartmut's observation,
- far enough from CFH 73.6 kHz for American
listeners,
- only requires minor antenna / preselector
retuning.
Best
73,
Markus

Markus;
Seems as you get lower there is some junk
that I don't know what creates it. I am surprised so many sigs and
artifacts exist on these freqs. But can't go down near 73.6 of course with
that signal blasting in most nights at 30 over nine. I have allot of
signal going west that would punch through allot of the junk as west coast
is lot closer than T/A stations.
I'll try 74.612 at Hartmut and
Victor's request but if no good shoot me an e mail and can go up or down
several hz if we have to. Otherwise if 74.612 vicinity is not
the best we can try your choice tomorrow if you like.
I was wondering
what it's like in Europe down at low end [68-70]? Wonder if it might be
harder to get sigs out as freq getting closer to VLF! If it's clear I
would think it might be better even though lower by several percent.
However, I will have to add "L" and retune things. Might take too much
time and just stay around 74.612 for tonight.
Of course, 74.323.431 going to
need to change dial freq. That would be hard in middle of evening's
transmissions-really need better propagation to get my one watt sigs
into Europe. Cold here [8-10 F] for tonight which will add to conductivity
and help with better start towards N Atlantic.
Bob

Thanks Hartmut, this is helpful!
How about 74322 then? The next higher line on 74323.431 seems to be
much weaker and will be far enough away.
What's it like in America?
73, Markus
323.
