DJ5BV came in on the 2nd receiver (wide band) here connected to an E-probe. QRN 2. Good copy. Switched to the main rx RST 569. Distance 220km Looking at the reports on the reflector his sigs seems to

Lubos, Your sigs were gud readible here! (See SL cap attached) So DL shouldn't be a problem. Was listening on the downpart hrd DK6NI / DF0WD. Both readable but not very strong. Jan/pa3abk Lubos, OK2B
There is local QRM on 472.5, hence QSY... <= Good idea you entered the digital passband. Your calling there I noticed instantly, because had WSPR and Opera running on the 2nd receiver having the spe
Tks Edgar. QSO wasn't during optimum condx. The BIA beacon sometimes completely disappeared. Now (abt 00hrs utc) it's strength increased, assume at that time it would be better. One of the consequenc
It's promising indeed. In top of my grabber I normally assumed that German beacons resides. However lastnite OK0EMW was remarkably strong. The RX sensitivity is below normal at the far end of the ban
Scanning the CW band 472-7kHz a strong, I mean very strong signal was heard from DK0SWF on 472,5. He was listening mostly on 80m. At 1930 he was QRT signing of after a short QSX 503. Didn't manage to
Tks Steiner. Later it became even better -6dB :-). FYI PA is 80W into a short antenna L=23m folded max height 13m. Top section (5m) is 3 wires caged. Earth is limited by house probe icw a 3m tube in
Which explains :-) Trust his receiver can cope with high input with such an array. Just now he gave his CS and peaking 9+20 which is very strong considering the distance 325km. Jan/pa3abk According t
Chris, Sri to hear your PA "died". I know that feeling. When your TX was "alive" your sigs were in general 339/569. (slow QSB...) There is slight drift of the VFO noticeable. Was calling you when QSX
Vlad, Thanks for keeping watch from the edge .... Was surprised my sigs came in, considering my power and low profile antenna. You must live in a low noise area :-) Timestamp Call MHz SNR Drift Grid

I have to reduce the gain manually when decoding strong signals. E.g. Albert/PA0A and Rik/OR7T are producing these :-) When lowering the gain, weak signals aren't decoded. Could be a problem between

Rik, Assume you modified the TS440 for "all band" tx. Just use "split" function. It works for me :-) Use channel 90-99 for programming "split" frequencies. Jan/pa3abk Hello Michael, thank you for the
Eddie, It's difficult to tell whether their is an improvement. Figs seems slightly better. (Using V4) Meanwhile heavy QRN came up here peaking 9+20. Your signal showed a slow QSB over the last 40min.
