Mike and all, Thank you for listening and for the reports. I was very pleased to receive WSPR-2 and WSPR-15 reports from you and WSPR-15 report from 2E0ILY last night. With the added PSU fan things s
Hi Alex, Luis Thank you! I knew about half of these grabbers, the rest are new to me. I will try DFCW few days from now, after completing WSJT-X 1.9 vs 1.8 WSPR study. 73, Paul N1BUG Please include m
Hi Mike, Thank you for this report! Sadly your WSPR-15 decodes did not make it to WSPRnet so I was not aware of them. If you still have these decodes in your ALL_WSPR.txt file (found in WSPR-X folder
Thanks to the WSJT development team for the (mainly LF and MF) WSPR decoding enhancement! I am concluding my side by side LF and MF WSPR decoding comparison between WSJT-X 1.8.0 and 1.9.0-rc2. Here a
I have a question about iron powder toroidal inductor heating... I built an experimental PA for 137 kHz. Details can be seen here: http://blog.n1bug.com/ For the three inductors I've used T157-2 core
Thanks for listening and for the report Craig. It was a slow night for WSPR-15. You were indeed the only one who reported me on that mode last night. I did mange to get WSPR-2 reports from G3XDV and
Thanks Mike. I didn't see them at WSPRnet yesterday but they showed up this morning. Perhaps you uploaded them manually? If so, thanks! I like WSPR-15. I find it very interesting and useful, but wish
Thanks Chris, I think the wire NOT wound on the toroid is warming also, but it is difficult to know. The leads are very short and soldered to large pads on the circuit board which tend to act as a he
Hello Chris, I have several splitters in my LF/MF setup. They are very inexpensive to make with BN73-202 cores. Plans can be found here: http://www.dxing.info/equipment/rolling_your_own_bryant.dx 73,
I am not transmitting tonight. Weather problems. I am under so much snow now that I may need someone to send a search party in the spring. :-( 73, Paul N1BUG
Hello Chris, I went on a treasure hunt and found my variometers! :-) However, digging them out of the snow made little difference. The antenna R remained high, well beyond the range of my tapped matc
I say BPF first, then preamp (at least for LF/MF work). Strong out of band signals can cause all sorts of problems. Best to filter them before amplifying. I believe the small amount of loss in a good
Hi Rik, That makes sense and my observations seem to be consistent with that. Things have mostly cleared and I am transmitting again since last night. 73, Paul N1BUG
Hello Chris, LF'ers, Not really related to your observation but there has been a dearth of reception all winter here. During the previous winter I heard 2E0ILY best -23 G8HUH best -24 DC0DX best -23
LOL !! I can understand that. Even with my much lower powered transmitter I am watching the kilowatt hours add up and making "adjustments" elsewhere in the household. WSPR-15 is a bugger on power usa
One of my big dreams is to complete a two-way QSO across the Atlantic on 2200m. It has been done. It can be done. My station is getting close to being ready. I have heard 2E0ILY up to -12 SNR on WSPR
Hi Stefan, I have WSJT-X 0.95 which has the slow JT9 modes. Unfortunately I tested om three computers and it will not run correctly. One of them is Windows XP, another Windows 7, and the third Window
Hello Luis, LF, I am afraid I have to agree with Chris here. I am in awe and have great respect for Paul and those doing amazing things at VLF, but EbNaut is not for the rest of us until someone writ
This brings us full circle to the reason for my original post. :-) The problem is lack of stations. I'm hoping someone will take the bait and build or rebuild a capable station over the summer. Curre
