J.B. Are you copying "XGJ" 0.5 Hz above "XES"? -- 73 Warren K2ORS/WD2XGJ FN42hi Hello LFers, I had a very solid copy of "XES" using DFCW mode here on Lake Huron at 02:00 UTC. It's nice to know my ant
WD2XGJ will be transmitting from 0000 - 0501 UTC for the next couple of weeks. This should cover the period of mutual darkness from here to EU. Also, thanks to Hartmut for the nice summer captures. -
Thanks to Laurie, Hartmut and Markus for the nice summer captures of XGJ. -- 73 Warren K2ORS/WD2XGJ FN42hi -- Original message -- Copy for about 2 hours best around 02:30 03:30 good copy of XGJ also
Laurie, Looks like "G" and partial "J" from XGJ. Tnx for capture! -- 73 Warren K2ORS/WD2XGJ FN42hi -- Original message -- Hi All, 3 TA signals recieved last night between 03:00 and 05:30 attached cap
Thanks Hartmut. I had been very sceptical of LW in the summer, your captures have been very informative. -- 73 Warren K2ORS/WD2XGJ FN42hi -- Original message -- > Copied Warren, WD2XGJ 0100-0300UTC i

Due to local thunderstorms WD2XGJ is signing off the air at 03:15 UTC on 15 August. -- 73 Warren K2ORS/WD2XGJ FN42hi ________________________________________ Attachments are NOT scanned for viruses..
Hi Dave, Very nice setup with the Icom computer contriolled receiver. Your attached capture from the 23rd is definitely XGJ. Thanks for sending it. I would like to try and receive your 137 signal whe
Hi Dave, Thanks for the capture. I take it thats XGJ? The frequency looks to be close - XGJ is at 137.7796. What is your receive setup? -- 73 Warren K2ORS/WD2XGJ FN42hi -- 73 Warren K2ORS/WD2XGJ FN42
Mike, Save your money. Buy a telescoping paint pole from Home Depot and lash the 20' fishing rod to it. That way you will have a 33' pole for much less money, and it will be stronger too. -- 73 Warre
Mike, I bought one of those DK9SQ telescoping masts a couple of years ago. Yes, its very light but also very weak The top section is maybe 1/4" diameter. I was able to (just barely) get it to hold up
Dex, I have the same situation here. I run a G0MRF TX with an external dds synthesizer and get pretty substantial key clicks. Although I haven't implemented it yet, it may be helpful to key the HT su
Hi Mal, I've been using a FET amplifier for the past year with no problems, and I've been running QRSS 60 and QRSS 30 most of the time. I do use a loop antenna, which presents a pretty constant imped
Hi Gary, Thanks for the capture. Conditions have been pretty good lately. I'm aware of the drift. The dds synthesizer that I built uses a reference oscillator that is not temperature compensated. Whe
WD2XGJ will be off tonite, and possibly for a couple more days. This is being done for the following reasons: 1) Failure of the transmitter's cooling fan (sounds like a bad bearing). I have another f

I have'nt tried it, but I came across some software for modelling ferrite loop antennas: http://home.att.net/~ray.l.cross/murod_mm/ Thought that this might be of interest to the group. -- 73 Warren K
