Conditions are still OK in the summer and there is still LF activity. QRN is the main problem, and is best avoided by operating in the early morning. MIke, G3XDV ==
Can anyone on this group tell me whether Morse is still used for EME and/or Meteor Scatter enthusiasts, or does all activity now use purpose-designed digital modes? Please reply direct to: mike.denni
Lots of activity around 137.77kHz last night. Here is a screen grab taken at around 2300UTC showing a 'G' from OE3GHB, a 'Y' from RA3YO and a 'V' from VO1NA. Also saw good sigs earlier from RN3AGC. M
Good signal from Joe last night, peaking at dawn here. See attached pic. Mike, G3XDV == The following section of this message contains a file attachment prepared for transmission using the Internet M
It would certainly encourage Eu DX activity if there were more distant grabbers monitoring the Eu waterhole around 136.320kHz. It is also a pity that W3EEE's excellent DCF39 monitor seems to be QRT n
This is good news. What is the mode, QRSS/DFCW? And the dot length? If the stations are interested in inband QSOs after 19z, what frequency will they listen on? I strongly suggest split frequency, pe
I have been asked to help someone who has been trying to join this group but without success. He says he has tried several times but: "Yahoo rejects it as 4.7 spam". He appears to have a btinternet e
The requirement for the exchange of two complete callsigns makes extremely poor use of a limited time slot. Even HF DXers do not do this any more. I believe there are two minimum requirements: The fi
Nicolas, thanks for the QSO and the picture. Here is a pic of your sig. Some local QRM this end as you can see. 73 de Mike, G3XDV == The following section of this message contains a file attachment p
Scott, I do not have direct experience of running a grabber, but it seems to me that your main difficulty is that, even with a SSB bandwidth on your LF receiver, you cannot cover DCF39 and the Eu DX
I will be transmitting overnight using DFCW60 (dash 136.31825; dot 136.31800kHz). Complete callsign sent once per hour starting on the hour. Mike, G3XDV ==
Please ignore the frequency scale on the right of the picture attached to my last email. I had just changed QRSS speed so it does not relate to the rest of the picture. Mike ==
