Stefan;
Even if you have your coils in weather proof housing rain is no good to transmit on 9 kHz? Bob

Hi Uwe, Tom, VLF,

Best signal ever from Tom, capture attached. Is it due to the propagation or did it improve your signal?
What about some tests in OPDS32 or maybe JT9-30? Unfortunately there is permanent rain here so i have to wait some days longer.

Hi All

Yes, yesterday was quieter on 8.9KHz with less catastrophic noise pulses. This meant that although Uwe's signal was less strong than during other tests I was in the catchment area. The low signal level means there are breaks in the line here in both 424uH and 47uHz FFT but I was able to catch some nice periods when the signal in 47uHz was10dB above the noise peaks. I can categorically confirm reception.

Thanks Uwe and (Tom DL8CAT) for the signal.
