Hi All, Some of us using Argo to look for signals from VA3LK are regularly seeing a couple of lines at 137790.05 137789.87 Hz. These lines show considerable distortion at times and may be very distan
Hi Dexter, The line on .9237 (actually 135923.694779) is a Loran line from the NE US chain. The other one which you say is at .92105 is probably not Loran, the closest is 135921.595598 from the New F
Hi All, I have deleted the relevant e-mails, and can't recall who asked the question. The answer I gave earlier was from official information, but after I saw Ko's answer, I decided to measure the fr
Hi Peter, The station that is operating is actually DBF39. DCF39 is not in operation. The frequency is 138.820 when not sending data and and spreads up to 139.170 when transmitting data. 73, John, G4

Hi All, For those interested, I have posted a selection of shots from Argo at http://www.g4cnn.f2s.com/VA3LK_010209.htm (N.B. if you retype this, upper/lower case is important) 73, John, G4CNN ______
Hi Mike and Andre, Sorry, I did not mean to criticise. It was just that I do not wish to claim or appear to claim something that I have not achieved. 73, John, G4CNN _________________________________
Hi All, I tried looking for the Amrad beacon again last night (2001-02-08/2001-02-09), but this time at the frequency indicated by Sandy, WB5MMB, of 136744.9 Hz. Nothing found at that frequency, but
Hi Dexter, Vy interesting to read your article and see your shack - a lot of kit there! A couple of points though. The name is John not Jim. More importantly Sandy, WB5MMB, says that the line at 136.
Hi Sandy, Ah! That would be well outside my window of 1 Hz or so. I will try again. I suspect that the line I saw was from the East because it faded out at our dawn. Thanks for letting me know. 73, J
Hi Mike, Yes, I think you are right about the "Luxemburg effect" at the top of our band, being the main source of the noise that disappears at dawn. I have always assumed that it is modulation of DBF
Hi Alberto, Thanks, I was aware of the read-out facility, but as you say it is only to 0.1Hz resolution. You wrote "to operate as a hot link, you must write http:// in front..." Ah! Something so smal
Hi All, On testing I found that to see the image it is necessary to copy (or type) the address www.g4cnn.f2s.com/amradbeacon.jpg into the URL field, for some reason only part of this functions if you
Hi All, I used Argo last night to monitor the Amrad Beacon frequency at 136.750 kHz and found a signal precisely on frequency to within 0.01 Hz. I used the highest resolution of 120 sec dots, which m
Congratulations Laurie and Dexter. That is a very clear call sign on the pair of JPGs, thanks to Argo. Now just a matter of getting both sides organised at the same time. 73, John, G4CNN ____________
Hi Alan, I don't think the dual lines are spurs from DCF42/49. The only spur around this frequency is at 137.7921. I calculated a complete list from Markus email and posted it on my web page: www.g4c
Hi All, Last night I monitored Jack's (VE1ZZ) signal to see whether it followed a similar pattern to Larry's. Unfortunately Jack's last transmission was from 23.30 till 23.40, which rather limited th
Hi Guys, I have been rather quiet lately due to work pressure. The job that I have been asked to do has required me to get up to speed on the latest 32-bit Windows SDK and DDKs. You would not believe
Hi, Put me down for a pack please Alan. I will put a cheque in the post as soon as you confirm that I am not too late. Sorry to hear you have been ill. Nothing serious I hope. Graham and Steve are du
Hi All, That's my memory too - i.e. the red or aluminium cans were EF50s. Why some were red I don't think I ever knew. They were popular for RF and IF strips. You could walk away with big boxes full
