Dear All, Many thanks to all the stations who have worked me during the last week or so, for the very warm welcome I have received, and their patience with my patchy morse capabilities! It has made a
Dear All, I expect to be active on LF on several days over the holidays, in between doing the rounds of friends and family. Hope to see you there. In the meantime, best wishes to everyone for Christm
Dear LF Group, Happy new year and millenium to all - hope it brings you happiness and good fortune. I too heard an "Icelandic" station on LF - on 3rd of Jan at 1421 utc, calling CQ - but this time th
Dear LF Group, I have now finished my 73kHz loading coil, and some preliminary tests last night seem to show that it works OK. The set-up is basically the same as that for 136k, except that the anten
Dear LF Group, Thank you to everyone who listened out for my signal on 73kHz last night - I was very pleased to be able to work Mike, G3XDV with 559 reports both ways. Other reports have been negativ
Dear LF Group, Re: Loops and stray capacitance measurements. All these methods will give you a rough idea of the stray capacitance; but results will be somewhat variable, since they assume that the l
Dear LF Group, I intend to be on 73kHz again this evening, to try for a manual CW QSO with David, G0MRF/P. We have arranged to try 71.8kHz, starting about 20.30 utc. Any kind of reports will be very
Dear LF Group, I greatly enjoyed the friday night activities on 73kHz, being able to work 4 other stations with 'armchair' copy at one sitting. They were, starting about 20.20pm: G3XDV (589), G0MRF (
Dear LF Group, Was very interested to read G3LDO's piece about antenna comparisons - it seems that the most important factor for DX operation on 136kHz may ultimately be the ground, rather than the a
Dear LF group, I am almost ready to go with QRSS; however I have not seen a complete QRSS QSO yet, so I would appreciate some operating procedure guidelines from the regular users of this mode, befor
Dear LF group, I don't have any strong local signals close to the 136kHz band - the problem comes more from the MF Transmitters across the road, which deliver a watt or so of BBC radio 5 on 909kHz to
Dear LF Group, HF Automatic Antenna Tuners Nothing to do with LF I know - but several members of the LF group are clearly involved in RF engineering, so I thought I would ask. Otherwise, please ignor
Dear LF Group, Many thanks to all those who responded to my request for information regarding automatic ATUs - I now have several leads to go on for my research. Cheers, Jim Moritz 73 de M0BMU
Dear LF Group, Re - 73kHz activity on 1st of Feb Have been very pressed for time lately, due to work deadlines, but should be able to manage a few hours tomorrow. I am now able to operate QRSS on eit
Dear LF Group, Very pleased to work G3XTZ(589) again, and G3YXM (579) and G3LDO (569) for the first time on 73kHz this morning, in the gaps between transmissions from the Rugby TX. this brings my tot
Dear LF Group, Friday evenings are quite good for me - if anybody wants to try normal CW or QRSS, let me know. I can put by antenna up a bit higher after dark, which is worth a few dB extra. Cheers,
Re: 73kHz Sideband noises / Soundcards Dear LF Group, I quite agree with Alan that measuring noise levels using a soundcard is unlikely to result in a definitive measurement, but in the few minutes a
Dear LF Group, Friday evening, on 73kHz - Called CQ with normal CW and QRSS between 2000 and 2300 on Friday - couldn't definitely identify any replies, but there was a steady trace on the Spectrogram
Dear LF Group,<br><br>As an attempt to increase the available data on fields radiated from LF antennas,I enlisted the aid of Dave Lauder, G0SNO, to perform some field strength measurements on my LF s
Dear LF Group, Thanks for the comments about field strengths, propagation modes, etc. I have done a bit more work on the subject: I have revised my estimates of the radiation resistance of my antenna
