Peter, G3LDO mentioned his difficulties to build a reliable and stabile exciter for LF and describes the solution developed by DJ1ZB. I myself also had my difficulties to build a solution from scratc
Again a lot of activity this weekend, but unfortunately only little time. Stations heard in 'normal' CW : G3LDO (559), G4GVC (559), GW4ALG (529), PA0LQ (579), PA2NJN (599), DF2PY (579), EIOCF (549),

QRM is increasing significant below 136.5 here in Belgium and I believe it is even worse in Germany. Any chance to use 137.65 as PSK activity centre as Andy suggested some days ago? This would incre
QRS is slow-CW transmitting software running under Windows. Since the first release of QRS version 1.08 (november 1998) slow-CW on 136kHz has evoluated from a marginal activity to a popular and widel
What about a test on 137.65kHz at 2100 UT to 2115 or 2130 UT. Would be interesting if you could gradually decrease TX power during that period (let's say 3dB down every 5 minutes) ? I will report on
On friday I did listen (look) out for Dave's PSK signals. Nothing at 20 UT on 136.200kHz, due to severe (S7) QRM. Initially also nothing on 137.650kHz at 21 UT but I left the shack at 21.10 and when

After almost 2 weeks of inactivity I did put up the LF antenna again last night and noticed a lot of activity (at least for an during-the-week evening) : G4GVC (559), G3YXM (569), G3XTZ (569), G3KEV

I'm observing a RTTY signal at evening since Monday. Mid frequency is 137 kHz and shift approx. 80 Hz. Impossible to decode it with my equipment. Monday it was *very* strong here, Tuesday only weak.
The mysterious FSK signal on 137 kHz is quite strong here in Sweden too (wednesday 23.15 UTC), but it is much weaker than the Greek Marathon signal on lower band edge. 73, Johan SM6LKM Hello Johan &
the carrier at 136.997 (I agree at +/- 1/2 Hz!) is almost always present here, and very clear ("O"!) in 0.3 Hz BW. I had no time to listen in past weeks. In last two days, no sign of RTTY signals her
