Hello Joe, The Kyoto Dst dropped overnight and propagation went down the drain. Still excellent aural copy your signal. On an other note, MF propagation from Japan to Europe has been good the last we

Hello Joe, Good signals early in the night, followed by an extended fading period and then a nice pre-dawn enhancement. The signal was 8 dB above the (quiet) band noise and aural copy was no problem.
Hello Joe, The sun keeps playing havoc, the west to east path is heavily effected as is the path from the north. However, on 518 kHz, NAVTEX Penang, Malesia, over 10k km was received yesterday evenin
Paul, However I have no idea how that would compare to the powdered iron T50-2 normally used in this circuit. <<< I have sucessfully used T50-1 and T68-1 powdered iron toroids. The optimum frequency
Hello all, It has been a while since I looked at reception of WSPR 630m spots received here. I noted that since October 20 I have received AA1A a few hundred times and last night alone the figure was
Hello Joe, I guess you are plagued with intermod products caused by strong MW broadcast stations. The simplest solution is to use a low pass filter with a cutt off frequency of 520 kHz. This way, I h
Hello Graham, Regarding the 10 dB signal strength difference, this are normal fading figures that can often be noticed on T/A signals. All night stable propagation is rare. See the attached overnight
Hello Graham, I am living in a sweet spot for T/A reception and am receiving Canadian NDB's every single day of the year. In fact propagation in July was much better than it is now. Some speak of the
Hello Rik, T/A propagtion from lower latitude NDB's is very poor at the moment, whilst reception from Nunavut is excellent. There was even a short opening around 10:00 UTC from Churchill at the other

Hello Joe, New Year's night was static ridden. See the attachment. P.S. I am now using an ECO-Mini-Whip as reception antenna. Power consumption is a mere 35 mW (5V / 7mA) instead of 900 mW! Gain - 14

Hello Graham, Maybe, but propagation from that part of Canada collapsed after 05:00 UTC. See the attached plot of NDB QY-263, Sydney, CAN NS. 73, Roelof Bakker, pa0rdt The following section of this m
Hello Graham, The answer to your question in regard to the difference in signal strength might be a new antenna that I am testing at the moment. It runs on a 6V gel cell battery and has a massive pow
Hello Joe, Your 12 WPM CW signal achieved good aural copy around 01:30 UTC. Propagation was a bit sketchy with deep fading. See attachment. 73, Roelof Bakker, pa0rdt The following section of this mes
