Thanks Lubos! I tried calling CQ for an hour or more. BHZ and SK6RUD were very strong so I thought I'd put the beacon on until 20:00 UTC. QRT now for the night - I have an early start in the morning.
Mal, LF, I guess Pete was referring to last night, although he doesn't explicitly say so. The screenshot is dated 8/9/08. Certainly SK6RUD isn't QRV at the moment. I see G3UNT's signal, and guess, we
Mal, I just tried to check YOUR grabber, to see what a professional MF station reception was like. Strangely I saw NO SIGNALS WHATSOVER! In fact I don't think you have made any effort in this area! Y
Hello LF, Gunnar Just checked and I hear SK6RUD (sending its QRSS segment) - no S-meter reading, but fully Q5, and little QRN so far tonight, and it's still daylight here. My archived grabber images
Hello again, I've just added the grabber pages to my old (ISP provided) web-site. Instead of uploading a pair of new images every 5 minutes by FTP (the usual way I've always done it) I've altered the
Hello LF, I'm about to do some work on the Linux machine that runs my grabber. Until it's finished, and I've re-installed the necessary software, the grabber will be unavailable. I'll try to get it a
Gary, Dave, LF Thanks for testing it from afar. Hopefully either this system will prove adequate, and I'll ditch the web hosting company, or the website will return. I must admit the hassle of regula
Hello Ken, LF, Yes, your signal was getting out, at least as far as Shetland and to Dave G3YXM at his holiday QTH in Ullapool too. 500kHz, I've discovered, is greatly limited by local noise levels, e
Hello Ken, On the TX front, I think you're frequency isn't too far from what you think it is, it appeared to be 502.0 when I heard (and called) you earlier. ON the RX front - can you hear GI4DPE on 5
Hello Alan, Thanks for the test. I have had a chance to look myself, from work and I'm happy that it seems to appear okay, reasonably speedily. I can't test it from home, behind the router, something
Hello LF, My web-hosting company seem to have a problem, and until I hear from them I think my normal website is going to be offline - if you try to access it you'll find "FORBIDDEN" is as far as you
Hello LF Seeing some QRSS10 on 500.300 Rather out of band for the UK, but so far I've got " G 3 L " Is it a G3 accidentally out of band or a legitimate user of that QRG calling the G3? Interesting? J
Hello Hartmut, LF, Yes, the Akraberg TX has been spattering for some time now. I reported it to the station previously, and some imporvement was done, but this weekend it became very much worse again
Hi Gary,LF, Sorry... Forget the webserver here is on another port.... Please try: http://sighthound.demon.co.uk:8080/grabber/archive_full/ http://sighthound.demon.co.uk:8080/grabber/archive/ Mind lik
Hello Mike, LF I've just retuned my grabber to 505-508. I haven't altered the HTML page information to reflect the change, but it's at http://www.sighthound.demon.co.uk/gm4slv/grabber2.htm Your beaco
Hello LF, My ISP's website FTP server seems to be misbehaving so I can't upload new grabber images at the moment. Until it's resolved you can see the local version, on my machine at home: http://sigh
Gary, LF Normal service is resumed. The problem was actually my router. For some reason the FTP connection to the ISP's server stalled when trying to enter "PASV" mode. Rebooting the ADLS router/fire
