Jim & Stefan, I'm seeing both of you scrolling onto the right side of my Argo screen at 02:10 UTC. Stefan is edging you out at the moment Jim, but that can change. I'll take another look in an hour a
My other hobby is building "high-tech" crystal radios. I needed a really sensitive set of headphones but didn't have the cash to lay out for a pair, so in true ham tradition, I made a pair to suit my
Jim, Mal, Stefan, LFers, Here is what I was able to capture last night, despite terrible weather. At least I wasn't plagued with the local noise I had the previous night. image/jpg DK7FC, Your usual
Jim, Mal, Stefan, LFers, Took another look at the Argo screen at 03:30 UTC and I've got the full KEV on the screen with an O copy. Both Jim and Stefan have faded out for roughly the last hour or so.
Hi Markus, I set up to monitor for your WOLF howls overnight, but unfortunately nothing showed upon checking this morning. Maybe you'll be on again and conditions might be more favourable. 73, J.B.,
LFers, Here is a site with some useful information on how to test and compare sensitivity of headphones: http://www.bentongue.com/xtalset/3cmp_hph/3cmp_hph.html 73, J.B., VE3EAR LowFER Beacon "EAR" 1
Jim, You are solid copy at TF3HZ, but not seeing even a hint here yet. The evening is young, so maybe a bit later. At least the noise conditions here are much better tonight! Happy New Year! 73, J.B.
Hi Markus, WOLF 10 is up and running here again, hoping that I'll see something other than random letters later. 73, J.B., VE3EAR LowFER Beacon "EAR" 188.830 kHz. QRSS30 EN93dr
Hi Joe, Please forgive me if I'm wrong, but I thought you'd get a laugh out of this: One morning, three Newfoundlanders and three Albertans were in a ticket counter line at a train station. The three
Stefan, LFers, At 0300 UTC I've got an "O" Argo copy of DFK7FC here on the east coast of Lake Huron! I'll post some captures in the morning after an all night session of listening/watching. 73, J.B.,
There was only 1 frame captured from a total of 11 that showed any sign of a signal here in VE3 land overnight Feb. 2-3: image/jpg 73, J.B., VE3EAR LowFER Beacon "EAR" 188.830 kHz. QRSS30 EN93dr
Perhaps the CW setting of the rig's mode switch could be re-labelled as PD (Primitive Digital) so that there's no apples / oranges issue. 73, J.B., VE3EAR LowFER Beacon "EAR" 188.830 kHz. QRSS30 EN9
Hi Mike, I'll take a look for you overnight. I've captured Stefan several times, so it's worth a try! 73, J.B., VE3EAR LowFER Beacon "EAR" 188.830 kHz. QRSS30 EN93dr
Stefan, LFers, The capture that I mentioned in my earlier post turned out to be the one and only: image/jpg This was taken at 03:27 UTC. 73, J.B., VE3EAR LowFER Beacon "EAR" 188.830 kHz. QRSS30 EN93d
It looks like 600M took a real hit from the CME. Where I would normally have two pages of copy on my Navtex monitor, I had less than half a page when I checked this morning! Listening on 75M I though
Alberto, It's the build 134 that I have issues with in NDB mode. It tells me that my sound card doesn't support the sample rate for that mode. The new Argo won't run in my Win98 antique that I use fo
I had some more good copies of your DFCW last night again, Joe. Also saw XKO and of course MP, the "local" as well. 73, J.B., VE3EAR LowFER Beacon "EAR" 188.830 kHz. QRSS30 EN93dr
Hi Joe, You're blasting in here this evening! I'm using Argo set to QRSS-3 Fast, since it has issues with my sound card for NDB mode. No audible copy of your CW though, despite straining my ears! I s
