Hi LF

First test with 100mW from U3

Iban EB3FRN decoded it in Opera Dynamic at sunrise

05:02    136 EA5DOM de EB3FRN Op32 Deep Search 297 km -42 dB in Montbrio 1499,9 Hz

Still a lot of room for improvements, but looks like the antenna performance is as good as MF

Hi Stefan

 

Yet another convincing argument:

 

As isolated coil, it can be covered with a bigger buck to get a step into VLF  ;-)

Hi Luis,

I prefer to set it appart. It is a truncated cone, so would have a natural tendence to "unwind" just by gravity

In the hot summer I would surely find the cable messed down at the base of the pipe :-)

That's a real argument!
