Hi Jim, Where is the Lessay loran station...I can't find it on my copy of the AA's road Altas for the U.K. My wife being from Cardiff, Wales, I enjoy seeing where all of you fellows are located acros
Hello LFer's, I copied an unusual, at least to me, signal tonite which resembled stair steps. They each had five "steps" between roughly 775.6 to 776.6 which repeated over and over. Each step was abo
Hello LFers, A successful good copy of station "XDW" last week tells me that my big loop is capable of picking up more than just the locals. Where should I be looking on the band to see if I can capt
Hello Alberto, I finally got time to put the "sndvol32.exe" file you sent me into my Windows directory, and now when I click on the Options| Select Input, I get the mixer screen! However, I'm still h
Hello LFer's, Thanks to all who responded to my query about a well casing being a suitable ground for a 136 kHz. Marconi antenna. Measurement seems to be the definative answer to whether or not it wi
Hello LFers, Would I be correct in thinking that eight paralleled 22 gauge wires, each separately insulated, would be a better choice than a single 10 gauge wire for a transmit loop? The current capa
Hello LFers, Now that I've got my preamp and pickup loop sorted on my LF loop, I want to try for some DX. Up to this point I've never seen even a trace of VO1NA but perhaps it's just too long of a pa
Hello LFers, How critical is the spacing between the windings and the core material when winding a toroidal transformer? I have a core taken from a television flyback transformer that I'd like to exp
Hello LFers, For something different I thought I'd have a look at a portion of the east-west TA window last night. Very close to 135.750 I saw a very strong carrier all night. I know that SXV uses th

Hello LFers, I see almost daily reports from Harmut and others with captures of TA signals from North America to Europe, but none coming our way. Are there any European stations beaconing regularly i
Hello LFers, Not much of a capture, but I did manage this small one of what looks like a DFCW signal. With the loop aimed for Europe/UK I've got an overland path of at least 1000 miles to the east co
Hello LFers, Using Spectrum Lab and playing with the color pallet I'm able to pick out fragments of a DFCW signal just above 318. I know my calibration is off a few tenths, but based on reference to
Hello LFers, Just before going to bed last night I thought I saw what might have been one of the TA attempt signals. For what it's worth, here's a cropped screenshot of what I got, but based on the r
Hi Guys, I've got my big loop turned for Europe and I'll be watching too! Lets hope that some of us manage to pick something up. 73, J.B., VE3EAR - VE3WZL Solar and wind powered EN93dr
Hi Mal, LF gang, I'll second Laurence's idea of putting a signal on so we can see something aside from the usual on this side of the pond. Happy New Year as well. 73, J.B., VE3EAR - VE3WZL Solar and
The LF gang, To all of my friends on the LF reflector, I wish you a very Merry Christmas. A special thank you to those who have written the programs that make it possible for so many of us to enjoy t
