I wonder if anyone on the list has experienced or has any knowledge of interference caused by the Grid Tie Inverters used in Solar PV farms? There is a proposal for a 4.4MW Solar PV farm about one mi
Hello Gary, Peter and all It's a good signal down here in Lincolnshire. It is a bit stronger on my E/W loop than my N/S loop and coupled with your location, I'd take an educated guess at the north-we
I think that it's because their Customs procedures are so irksome? I have a friend in the US who ships items over for me and he complains about all the paperwork that he has to complete. 73s Tracey H
My apologies for the off topic enquiry. I'm considering buying a butane powered soldering iron for use on antennas in the garden and fields. I'd be grateful for any recommendations or other comments,
Hello Warren Checking the RNA website, I'm not surprised that you haven't had any problems on your side of the pond as there are only ten North American loggings in the 460 - 480kHz part of the spect
Hello Clemens NDBs are generally modulated with either 1020Hz or 400Hz. In the frequency range concerned there is a mix, but it is predominantly 1020Hz You can see what has been received and their de

Hello Ken I doubt it, but you never know. I've just checked our Received In Europe (REU) database and there are some 29 inactive NDBs listed in the 472-479kHz range. If they were all to become active

Hello Laurence Talking of K9AY antennas, I've just bought a couple of 10m EXTRA telescopic grp masts from an outfit in Germany. http://www.dx-wire.de/brit/ They make excellent K9AY supports as they a
Hello Mal You don't quote the all important, the bandwidth that you were taking these measurements in. I've just done a quick look on my receiver. 20kHz DDC bandwidth and 10Hz selectivity Noise floor
Hello mal That's from Darlowo in Poland, a military airfield I believe and the NDB is activated when required. It's just over 700 miles from me and is always a good signal. 73s Tracey -- Original Mes

Hello Pete If we're talking about low priced SDRs, there is a relatively new kid on the block in the form of the Afedri SDR-Net from Israel. It is what I will refer to as a "proper" SDR i.e. a direct
Hello mal In fact all the NDBs located in the new band are tone modulated. 73s Tracey -- Original Message -- From: [email protected] mal hamilton To: [email protected] rsgb Sent: Frida
If you're talking about spot on 477kHz there are four NDB carriers nominally on that frequency. 73s Tracey -- Original Message -- From: [email protected] Graham To: [email protected]
