LF: NEW - SV8CS LF Grabber.

["SV8CS- Spiros Chimarios" <zante@otenet.gr>]

Hi Markus,

Thank you also for your help.

My main QTH from the 2nd QTH is 5-6 Km far away with a mountain between the 2 QTHs.

I hope to see you soon in my grabber.

73, Spiros

Hi Spiros,

 

this is very nice, good to see your project came to life! This will surely be a valuable resource for all LF experimenters, near and far. Thanks to you and Stefan for the good work.

 

BTW I'm amazed to see that your grabber remains fully sensitive even during your own transmissions - how far is it from your transmit antenna location?

 

Best 73,

Markus (DF6NM)

Spiros, LF,

Thank you for the new grabber! I hope it will run several years without interruptions :-) It is certaily an interesting location and challenging for some stations to leave a trace there.
I will also start to TX on 136.172 kHz in a few minutes! Maybe i will be visible there...

SV8CS LF GRABBER

With Stefan's DK7FC big help and patience now I can run my own grabber for LF 136KHz captures.

http://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/213645899/LFgrabber/SV8CS_LF_Grabber.html

My grabber is a IDC-136II-BLT, 136KHz receiver with Mini-Whip antenna by PA0RDT

The LF grabber has 3 windows :

1) EU transmitting window

2) TA transmitting window and

3) Wideband window.

The receiver can capture also WSPR-15 signals.

SV8CS grabber is located on my 2nd QTH at the mountain 560m a.s.l. The antenna is 10m above groung.

Is a noiseles qth and the system is powered by bateries and solar panels.

Thank you Stefan, for your help.

73 to all.
