Hi Laurence, have also been monitoring and capturing at every screenful during the bed-time hours for the last three nights but other than the occasional blip of wishful thinking all captures have pr
Hi Jim; thanks for the reply to the moan. Today I had another go at the mods to the BK - with the same result. Working into a 4.7 Ohm resistor load, and driven into saturation, the waveform across th
Hi all, not long back home again after an enjoyable few weeks in Normandy, (not far from Lessay but the grandsons pinched the semtex for use as playdough) so, full of enthusiasm and biere rousse I se
My apologies to all. I seem to have acquired a nasty which got into the desk-top past the anti-virus. Luckily this laptop hasn't been used for a month so it should be OK. Got my asbestos hat on ready
Hi Gary, Easy to measure power at 136. I use " V squared over R" in a dummy load consisting of four wirewounds in series/parallel and measure the peak voltage with an very ordinary "cooking" chopped
I have also been running captures looking for Laurence most nights recently but so far nothing seen except an unidentified line about 0.2Hz above his nominal frequency. In the words of the old jazz n
Hi folks, I am sorry that there have been no reports from me for the past ten days, but I was rushed into the 'krankenhaus' and am only out on parole for the weekend so unable to get to the conventio
Hi Gary, should have reported earlier, but you have had good signals here these last three nights. Last nights were 'O' and 569 at times. 73 de, Ian GI8AYZ/MI0AYZ
Lots of bits last night but not one complete callsign received even at 'M', although I did see Joes 'O' report to Jim but nothing else readable until 0645z when I captured '....O1N.A' at 'O' and then
I shall also be beaconing tonite from 2100z on 135.922, QRSS20, and monitoring between calls primarily for VO1NA but of course if anyone else..... Ian. Note:- I have reverted to type and am now using
Hi Joe, excellent signals last night. First traces visible 0115z building up to full 'O' by 0200z and staying that way until 0530z when some QRM appeared. By 0630z signals had started to fade down to
Hi Joe, because of other committments I have just got round to looking at last nights captures and there you are - looking lovely! First traces appeared around 0352z and built up to full 'O' copy by
Now back monitoring 136 again, and also building a new TX. So far (last three nights) nothing seen T/A but have been fiddling around with settings so not sure that things are properly set up. Will po
Hi Dick, good strong signals at IO64XM pretty well all night, starting 2300 at 539 and continuing O QRSS10 (and QRSS3) with only a few dips around 0100 - 0200. Some minor frequency excursions with th
Back in business again on 136 but not with new TX so only 50 - 60W and antenna current down now that everything is soggy and cold. Good copy from VO1NA the last two nights, pretty well all night unti
Sorry John but the new config doesn't seem to be working. There are three "get it up" spams awaiting my attention - all came through 'thorcom' and the reflector. Since changing my address back in Jul
Good morning all, this posting is simply to inform any interested party or parties that as from 1300z today I am quitting LF. Poor health coupled with bad weather has meant that there is a backlog of
Hello Dick, I have been on LF for about 18 months using the antenna shown in the attachment with up to 200W on 73KHz and 100Won 136KHz from a standard size suburban plot without any interference prob
