Hello Lowfers, after my success being seen in Slow-CW by Mike, G3XDV (no QSO yet) I had another wonderful experience by having a QSO with Toni, HB9ASB. Remember, still my antenna is a mess and my est
Has anyone found the best settings yet? Well, I have found some settings but I am not really shure if they are the best ones (follow the "Slow-CW" link on my homepage so see them), those were the one
John, I am answering your request to suggest a band plan for our small longwave band throught the reflector, since I believe that a discussion would help to come to an agreement. I read about the rec
Hi Finbar, great story! I would lik to put it up on my hompage to make it awailable to others who are not on the reflector. Would you mind? Best 73 Geri, DK8KW (W1KW)
Dick, please send me the pictures and the attached information on tre reception of DCF39 by Vaino. I would be pleased to put it on my homepage (I still got a couple of Megabyte free ...). It would fi
Hello Lowfers, some of us use selective level meters to measure the signal strength, some have receivers with S-Units where S9 equals 50 uV, others are calibrated to 100 uV (and a lot of the S-meters
I am a bit amazed that the signal is "only" -33 dBm because at my QTH the signal has exactly the same strength but I am 500 km from DCF39! I use a Wandell & Goltermann PSM-5 Pegelmessplatz. Hello Di
Hello Lowfers, the packet message below in German says basically: "I got recently QRV on 136.6 kHz quite often. QTH Schotten, Loc. JO40MN. Ant. 24 m vertical with top-load. Transmitter "The First" ma
Hello Lowfers, I got a packet message back from Reiner, DL3FDO. He has very similar receiving problems as Wolf, DF2PY and surely needs to work on similar solutions to try to overcome these. With his
Hello Lowfers, those of you who follow the discussions on the reflector know that Vaino, OH2LX, has made some regular observations on the signal strength of DCF39 on 138.830 kHz. Dick, PA0SE was only
I got the best results from buried non-insulated ground wires with stokes at far ends.< I have followed Peter's advise recently and used a 2.4m ground-rod, washed down in the previously described wa
Hello Lowfers, sorry to report, but also from here (JO52BH) no reception of EI0CF yet. Tried with Spectrogram early this morning with very low noise level; I could see all the LORAN lines that Peter,
Hello, frinds of the long wave, wow! What a weekend! For me surely the most active and most succesful weekend since I started LF operation. Hopefully I am not the new crocodile in town now. I called
Mark (F6JSZ): also from me congrats on convincing your authorities. Hope to hear F-stations soon here in JO52BH. Andre (N4ICK) already gave you some hints on where to get a transmitter or a PA kit. I
Hello Alan, A QRS cq from DK8KW was logged at 0421Z and again finishing at 0444Z. The first was just readable would be the lowest report from me ( T ?) The second call was mashed up by the noise but
John, sorry to report: no reception of your earth current transmissions on 71.85 kHz and 137.05 kHz today. My local noise level already was quite high. Hope you get better reports from others! Best 7
Hello Lowfers, after a beautiful view onto the eclipse today (about 86% in Peine near Hannover, the clouds just wen away around the time of the eclipse maximum), also here I measured an interesting a
Hello Lowfers, after being back from vacation in EI (operating presumably the world's first LF listening post in a horse drawn caravan, sorry Finbar, the way was too long to your QTH) I used the rest
Hello YLs and OMs, another great weekend with very low noise conditions and some new callsigns in my logbook. Saturday, September 4, 1999 Worked John, G4GVC (-117 dBu) and Mal, G3KEV (-100 dBu) for t
Hello folks, for those of you interested in receiving PSK31 please be informed that I have arranged a sked with Dave, G3YXM to hopefully establish the first PSK31 QSO between the UK and the continent
