Geri and Markus. I will put out some QRS calls on Sunday morning, listening around 137.7 +/- 150Hz. I will try to keep my wandering VFO on 71.80 starting at 0700 for Geri and again at 0900 for Markus
Geri et al Great! Thanks also for the nice Spectrogram of my drifting tx...... The strange thing is that I could see nothing of Graham's signal here, the Rugby QRM is so strong. Funny to think he was
Dear all. Nice QSO with Toni HB2ASB tonight just after 2000 on 71.8 / 137.7. Exchanged "O" reports. I can't remember your locator square Toni so I can work out the distance. Mine is IO92BK. I thought
Dear all. It was so embarrassing to see my drifting VFO on Markus' plots that I have connected the DDS to my 73k TX and it seems to work OK. I will try some calls around 2000 tonight (Monday) and fro
Dear all. Good activity again tonight. I worked Rik for another new one. I am now using the SM6LKM / G0MRF DDS and hope to have a way of applying the frequency shift for DFCW soon. I also heard Jim (
Johan. It could have been me. I did put out "QRZ K" at that time and exactly that frequency. I was using 3.5 second dots and 2:1 dash:dot ratio. Does it seem to fit? 73 Dave G3YXM. -- I believe I saw
Dear all. It's very frustrating not to be able to see anything through the Rugby shash so I hope I didn't tread on anyone elses toes! I did manage to work Reino OH1TN crossband to 137.7 at about the
Dear all. I have just spent a frustrating day trying to work Valerio IK5ZPV crossband 73/136. We had taken it for granted that the difficult bit would be hearing the 73k signal at Valerio's QTH.... I
Jim. Have a look at the screenshot Reino sent me http://www.picks.f9.co.uk/newspic19.htm . Above Peter's signal I think you can see the end of CQ (-. --.-) followed by M and the start of a zero? It m
Dear all. G4GVC has just got tuned up on 71.735kHz and will be putting out some slow CW transmissions this evening, starting around 2000. He would be interested in any reports via this reflector. Dav
Yes that'll be (IK5)ZPV "XK" being shorthand for crossband K. I didn't see anything here but it was noisy at that time. 73, Dave G3YXM. I saw the following signal, strength "O" on 137.692 Khz. at 210
Walter. It was me, I was working Valerio IK5ZPV... yes we made it at last! I can try any time today, transmitting on 71.800 listening on 137.7 +/- 40Hz or wherever you like. Let me know when you woul
Dear all. Last night whilst the tx was sending a QRS call on 71.8 I went outside to check that there was no corona discharge from the antenna, easy to see in the dark. No problems were seen but I not
Dear all. I will call CQ using normal CW on 72.100kHz on Sunday morning from 0800utc listening on 73k band, 136.5 to 137.5 and 7022kHz +/- QRM. Please give me a long call if you hear me because it ta
Dear all, especially Magne... I wonder if your receive conditions are preventing you from hearing signals on 136kHz? I looked on the Megapulse site today and it appears that there are two powerful 10
Thanks for the nice signal reports.. Some good contacts today (Saturday). John and myself worked EI0CF (x-band). Jim and Mike worked GI3PDN (x-band) and a few of us worked G2AJV. Sunday will be our l
Eh what?? Square wave generators/dividers and class D/E amplifiers are fine for small antennas and low erp but NOT SUITABLE for larger antennas and high power. An abundance of LPF and BP filters migh
Andy I found the same thing on topband and was puzzled so I did some tests. Only below 500kHz did the particular grade of (quite thick) litz wire exhibit an improvement. As for why... I don't know, b
