Hi Dexter, Very interested in your screen shot. The dashes are at the higher frequencyso your Q is right! I was using 60sec elements so the element lengths are right! The inter-element spacing was24s
I had some problems with DFCW earlier,so have reverted to QRSS 33sec dots. frequency 135,9220 Khz. I will try to fix the DFCW problem tomorrow. 73s Laurie
Hi Rik, But the maximum of a loop is very broad so Im afraid it wont give any improvement in regard to atmospheric QRM. Im not so sure! analysis using EZNEC shows a "fig8" azimuth pattern,at least fo
Hi Larryand Bill Many thanks for the confirmation,I am pleased to be your first European sighting,intresting that it was a fault (my Freq shift ) that clinched it. I agree with with Rik and others th
Hi Larry and all, I will not be able to get on tonight until 2300utc (we have to go out). Sorry if that misses the early peak,perhaps Jim can be on.I am interested to discover why his signals are 3db
Hi Jim and all, Tonight I will introduce gaps in my transmission, I will tramsmit AQCAQC (32mins) than a gap of 3mins ie 3 dash lengths followed by AQCAQC again,I will then identify (takes about 4min
Hi Vaino, I wonder did you get the reports of myself and M0BMU, swapped about? I am sure that I was on 135,922.5 and I did not drift. I also wonder about the Fs reports,quite a big difference and if
Hi Bill , Many thanks for your report,I am pretty sure about my frequency 135,922.5+/-0.5 and I am sure I did not drift.So great, we are getting there! Further to your observations of DCF39 and the l
Hi John, I wonder wether you are suffering from condensation? rather than direct ingress of water. I have a phasing system for my 4 square that live out in the middle of a field,and have found that v
Andy/Peter, I too like the team approach and would be happy to co-operate. It would be intresting to check the EIRP of the Amberley antenna, particularly in the NW direction.I could bring my portable
Hello all, After reading the recent spate of comments re QRSS I am feeling rather anti-social Surely we can co-exist,each enjoying our own particular activity. Even though I am keen on the transatlan
I propose to transmit a beacon signal tonight. G3AQC repeated on 135.922/3. QRSS. 30 sec.dots 2:1 dash/dot ratio. I will start at 2030 utc and continue until 0800. Larry will be listening and I would
Hi Robin. I am currently using large grounded loops based on the "EWE" antenna in order to null out interference from Loran which is very strong here.These ants. can be regarded as phased verticals a
To All, Tonight I am going to look for Larry, but from tomorrow I could transmit a beacon signal if anyone is intrested. I would transmit QRSS using 30sec. dots with dot/dash ratio of 2:1. using 135.
I saw the first traces of Larrys signal at 2230 last night only readability T but on frequency of course.Readability up to M possibly O by 2330, no doubt better later,but I had to go to bed.Hi. This
Hi Larry, Very fine "O" signal from you here on the south coast this morning (0100 UTC) Using 400 foot grounded loop, RA1792 Rx and Spectran.I make your freq. 137,787.4 but this could be me,I dont ha
