Hi Alan - even down here both at 475 and 136k its been "down" for at least 10 days compared with previous trips - but flux is way higher and other pesky particles though not particularly severe haven
Despite the overall poor MFLF conditions up here JA1CGM continues to make near nightly qrss40 ish appearances on 136.172 window around 0730-0900Z - no Polar paths have been open with theses elevated
Thanks for the info Roelof - very interesting - obviously the ionosphere is very fickly as we all know location specific - its just been awful here :-( I was stationed at a small hut at the end of th
Thanks Edgar - HGA22 is typically 5-10dB weaker than DCF39 - averaged out here-over the pole path absorption had been especially poor this autumn/winter to date The screen link should refresh auto ev
Over the pole on 137kHz appears good my pre dawn with DCF39 good but now fading as sun rise beckons at 1845z. Its also really really quiet.... This is somewhat interesting given poor over the pole co
Thanks Stefan - yes Ill speed it up - I was using it at that scroll rate to look at long term DCF39 but will now optimize for QRSS - ill shove up a "spoiler" carrier on 136176 as a reference for a wh
It is weird :-) Cant hear LT here - as we have a painful S9 "PEE" NDB on the same 305kHz here Cheers To: [email protected] Date: Sun, 7 Dec 2014 21:11:39 +0100 From: [email protected] Su

Yep 3 in a row - DCF39 was something approaching 45-50dB over noise at the time (fft width 30.1mHz) and really good to see the needle moving - honestly its been a few years since weve had signals at
Stefan - It was one of those very (very rare) stable Polar iono nights you get - I can count them on half of one hand over the last 14 or so years of LF reception off and on from here. At the moment
It so happens my 10ft diameter multi turn LF loop is now plonked in the centre of an extensive earth mat consisting of bonded welded fence wire, and about 100 x 100ft radials, numerous Earth rods etc
Alan thanks - Im thinking cos the noise is "Whitish" is nature that it could be high level iono - certainly I cant finger any of the local QRM sources or attach it back to the house here either - but
