Dave, Thanks for saving me the effort of doing the testing on ceramic resonators! I see Rapid also stock these, and the 11.0592 xtals too. I've got my NoV application ready to post tonight and I reti
Thanks very much for all the feedback I've received, both on and off the list. Jim seems to pretty much cover all my points, thanks. The only minor followup question I have, that might be of general
Hello everyone, Alan G3XAQ here. I just joined this mailing list. I'm preparing my application for a 501KHz NoV, so Mal's note on an easy start is very timely. For me, there is an even easier route t
Chris, As someone already mentioned, water-slide decal paper gives a professional looking finish. There are varieties for both laser and inkjet printers. Your callsign suggests you are probably of a
John, I think your group has done a fantastic job getting UK amateurs the first general operating permits for 500K in Europe. I'm interested in aerial experiments but, to make this offer some returns
I've never seen a picture of my CW before. Thanks!! Attached is a cropped seleection of an ARGO screenshot. As you can see you are getting out very well indeed. Good luck, Roelof Bakker, pa0rdt [ A M
Yes, Gary, I think it's me on the grabber at G3YXM. Do any of the grabbers capture the actual audio so I can listen to my CW note? 72, Alan I can't see anything of you up here in Lancashire but there
Hello Gary, When you say "see anything", do you mean you are expecting me to be using a computer based transmission? I'm actually using ordinary morse, currently at about 12 wpm. I wonder if you can
Colin/G3VTT and I have a sked at 8pm local time this evening. We'll rattle away at high speed for a bit and then slow down to 12 wpm to listen for any other stations. Come on, you know you'd rather w
I have today got my 500KHz station on the air. I am located near Canterbury, locator JO01md. Here are some technical details. The aerial is an inverted-L with a 15m vertical and a 35m horizontal sect
Hello Rik, I think it's because small/low aerials lose more signal to surrounding ground clutter than do big/high aerials. I don't believe that trees, buildings and hills necessarily appear as part o
G3KEV and G3VTT were their usual strength around 9am (0800Z). Nobody was around when I called CQ a few times in the middle of the day. Despite heavy QRN this evening, G3VTT was his usual strength ove
Ah, but nobody said it was supposed to be easy :-) Chris is always 300Hz HF of me. I think he has a DC transceiver, possibly without TX offset. Dunno whether Ray is rock bound or not. I suspect he is
Rog, I'm crystal controlled on 502.0 KHz. If the weather improved during the coming week I'll be doing some aerial work which may help sigs. I need something to help reception here because I don't se
Give us a call now and we'll try to hear you. 73 Tom G3OLB The QRN is low here today. I will be calling CQ on 502.0 from 18:00Z (7pm UK) this evening. -- Cheers, Alan G3XAQ [email protected] --
Rob, That might have been me and Colin/G3VTT rag chewing at 25-30 wpm. We are both in east Kent. If you would like a test then just drop me an email off-list. -- Cheers, Alan G3XAQ [email protected]
Roger, I just sent my application direct to Ofcom. The NoV came back in about 2 weeks. Best wishes, Alan In message <[email protected]>, Roger Lapthorn <roge

I am hearing Rog/GW3UEP 439/549 beaconing on 501.50. Copy is good. We could probably make a QSO if QRN is also low in Wales? -- Cheers, Alan G3XAQ [email protected]
