Hello Friends, The week-end of 13-15 January 2001 is a holiday week-end in the USA and, once again this year, adventurous members of the AMRAD LF fraternity will proceed to Nags Head (North Carolina)
Thanks to Mark, N4TPY for bringing this to my attention. Andre' N4ICK ** Friday December 29 01:15 PM EST Passing of a wireless pioneer By David Coursey, ZDNet News Remembering a forgotten wireless pi
It would appear that more and more people on this side of the pond are actually seeing things ... Kudos to Jonathan :-) Andre' N4ICK Hello, Copied what appears to be both G3LDO and M0BMU at 0424 toda
It has been pointed out, quite correctly, that the ARRL story about LF operating has errors in it. In defense of my fellow journalists, I will say that given limited resources it is inevitable that
Kudos, Dexter, and an excellent "plug" for our LF allocations :-) Keep up the good work Andre' N4ICK A picture of my LF shack and recent LF news can be seen at: http://www.arrl.org/news/stories/2001/
Here is what the amrad beacon looks like with ARGO 119 set at 120s dots, fast . It has about .1 HZ shift as xtal heats on key down. It reminds me of one of my first transmitters: a ARC-5 "Command Se
A fixed error in frequency means a constantly increasing error in phase. Suppose a phase locked loop has a reference frequency of 1MHz exactly, and is trying to lock a VCO which is running at 1.00000
Hello Mike, Absolutely, we can transmit at any speed we want The only limitation would be the ON7YD QRS program: does it allow us to go slower? (I cannot remember its parameters, and the actual softw
Hi André, I wasn't aware of that. But since Dexter could copy UK stations running abt. 350mW ERP it might be worth putting up a 24h beacon arround 137790, would allow the Eu's to monitor beacons in
There does not have to be a frequency error at all for a phase comparator to output a correction voltage...only for the oscillator being stabilized to have a _tendency_ to drift away from the desire
Congrats to Laurie & Dexter. It seems that 60 sec./dot opens a complete new world of posibilities. Two things to do now : - try to get some (more) transmitting activity at the western side of the po
We have posted on our website at <http://www.amrad.org/projects/lf/>. some details of the new AMRAD receiving antenna that will appear in QST for September. In addition you can now also find there th
I will pass this on to those concerned, please do, as we LF enthusiasts are people too, you know... (They would not want to be involved as defendants in a lawsuit based on discrimination against LF p
Just received in the mail the RSGB's advance information leaflets re the 12-14 October meeting in Windsor. There was *no* mention whatsoever of anything LF, in spite of the interest generated, last y
