Hello Cesare I write a column each month for the RSGB magazine, RadCom, called 'Antennas'. I often get letters from readers who ask 'what is the best commercial antenna to use if you have only a smal
I think that most of you know that I have to fold my antenna mast over during the day because of planning restrictions. This means that I get to transmit on LF a good deal less than I would like to.
. My estimation is that he was about 2 S points down on the strength I normally hear him. Thus 559 against his usual 579 on the vertical. This report seems to be confirmed by Dave G3YXMs comments. T
-- Just made a test with a horizontal loop antenna and made QSO with F6BWO--F6CNI--DL3FDO At first sight it work FB Loop perimeter is 85 meters and 12 meters above ground Series coil is 1.5 mH series
I am now plotting DCF39's signal as received here in North Carolina. The plots are uploaded at ten minuets intervals. Interesting to compare the signal strengths received by W4DEX with W3EEE. Both p
During this very wet spell I noticed that the total antenna resistance has gone up - probably due to environmental losses. The daily cycling of antenna resistance does not seem so bad on 136kHz as on
Hi Steve 13/1/03 Having just returned from a week long business trip to find that w3eee.com was still working(!) I'm also gratified to see that it is of use . . . This is really a very useful site an
It is 0730. The W3EEE continues to show an excellent CFH39 signal (-6 or -7 dB) so I will keep up the 137.769+ transmissions. Regards, Peter, G3LDO Web <http://web.ukonline.co.uk/g3ldo>
A very nice "Q" toward the end! (from Laurie). The other signal is a line that's been there all day. I'm not sure of the source. The W3EEE page showed CFH39 to be not so good at the time At the momen
The W3EEE site shows a large burst of noise late afternoon followed by suppressed conditions What happened? Regards, Peter, G3LDO Web <http://web.ukonline.co.uk/g3ldo>
Captures of 135.922 kHz are being posted every 15 minutes at: http://webpages.charter.net/w1tag/cap-1.jpg John has captured some fragments of my wobbly signal, which appears to be cycling in frequenc
a quick look at Steve's site shows that the DCF39 level is -12dB relative level at 2230. I will put out a test transmission on 1359... whatever it was I used last time. QRSS60 I guess unless DCF39 go
Hi John, Sounds like a good idea. I will allocate myself 135922 transmitting 'LDO' QRSS60 In an effort to drum up some activity, W4DEX and I will be watching the 135.922 kHz region on Sunday night/ M
Most of the time I only get one line and it is quite strong - audible at around S5. On my receive system it is 137.7465kHz On the other hand DFC39 is on 138.8305. If I assume DFC is on 138.830kHz the
Hi Alan Hi Peter, I am not really in calibration at the moment and I have a limit of +/- 0.1Hz. But for what its worth I make the lines 137.7446 and 137.7528. I doubt whether Markus can hear(see) the
Hi all, the Trans-Atlantic path seems to be peaking about 10dB above average tonight. It is still 5/6dB below the peaks on the best nights (5 & 6 Jan) according to Steve's realtime plot. You may fin
Hi Markus saw both your nighttime and morning emissions, ufb signal up to 10dBµV/m with QSB, drifting very slightly from 137769.93 to 769.96Hz. Last night, I joined in for a while: 23:16...23:52 on 1
0630Z I am making a test transmission in the hope that it may be received by KL1X - frequency 137.7695kHz QRSS60 If anyone sees it I would appreciate a frequency check. Regards, Peter, G3LDO Web <htt
Hi Alberto Boys, that screen is becoming fast crowded... but maybe that callsign could just automagically show only in the captured images, without cluttering the normal viewing.... What Alberto has
A continious carrier on 137.7708kHz, with an occasional burs of modulation, has been on most of the evening. Anyone know what it is? Quite strong - S7 on the meter. Regards, Peter, G3LDO Web <http://
