Good copy in Bracknell, peaking 549. Recording at http://my.opera.com/davews/blog/2007/06/05/500khz-recordings but the recording doesn't really do him justice, I copy him better than that! 73 Dave G3
I will try and listen around midday Colin. But we are doing NFD down here so have to get sorted out for that. Will you be on tomorrow as well? 73 Dave G3YMC http://www.davesergeant.com
In view of the fact that I seem to be hearing stations many times better than they are receiving me at the moment (!) I have started to make short audio recordings of stations on the band to give you
You may find if you beacon on that frequency for long that you get some complaints - there are quite a few who are rock bound on that frequency! 73 Dave G3YMC http://www.davesergeant.com
Thanks Tom. I think Alan is crystal controlled and he had answered my CQ, I had not renetted on to him. Maybe with this surge in activity I should have done to save space! 73 Dave G3YMC http://www.da
Thanks for the QSO Alan - at the moment I think you are about my best 'DX'.... At least the recent improvements I have made to the antenna and tx seem to have bourne fruit, I can now have quite reaso
I am still copying Roger GW3UEP in the middle of the day. Find attached a short .mp3 recording made at 1030z (hopefully small enough to go through the reflector. I have put a slightly longer version
Still amazed at the difference in reception between Bracknell and Iver (the whole of about 10 miles...). Currently hearing (and not much different from midday here) with my two ears..... 505.15 DI2BE
Nor does it here.... don't get too carried away by those pictures on the Gogglebox. I have relatives near Evesham and in Worcester, none directly affected apart from inconvenience of flooded roads. Q
I would support the current trend for beacons/QRSS to be towards the top end of the band. There are quite a few people crystal controlled on 502.0 and with an (apparent) increase in activity at the m
Not sure which Dave you are referring to. Called you quite a few times but got no response.... On one of those calls Mike G3XDV heard me and sent me a 569 report. Hope you have success with your rece
Colin (or Geoff) was on 502 a few minutes ago, S9 plus. Gave him a couple of calls but no response. GW4HXO and GI4DPE in QSO on that frequency at the moment, each peaking 539 with QSB. I might have c
I look forward to listening/working? Colin later. Just redone my erp/antenna current measurements. Using the most optimistic parameters erp is 5mW and an antenna current of 200mA. I doubt many field
Gosh, if that was the full 100mW you would be LOUD. 589 in Bracknell, though that is not very far from you.... By the way I am adding a list of stations worked to my activity page (not worked you yet
Yes they can. Just did an Audacity recording of G0MRF while at the same time displaying his signal (or any other one for that matter) on Argo. Both carried on doing their job just as you would expect
Why use an mp3 player? Your pc is quite capable of playing mp3 files all by itself. I use Irfanview (http://www.irfanview.com) for virtually everything these days, you need to download its plugins as
Not sure if I am going to do it for everybody.... ME3 8TJ corresponds to TQ783759 which is JO01GK 89km from me in IO91PJ, 232km from G3DXZ in IO93MH Note that using multimap.com to do the postcode to
QRZ.COM gives his postcode as DN22 6UF. From multimap.com that corresponds to SK714819. G0GJV's Minos VHF contest logger (http://www.goodey.org.uk) calculates this to be IO93MH 216km from me in IO91P
