Hello Jim, No, everything is as normal here - same hardware throughout. The waterfall shows your signal as bright red, despite no decode. But... there's always a faint trace just a few Hz hf of you t
Hello Gary and LF, Yes, I'd agree that we should stick to TX power rather than ERP in WSPR beacon data. This allows comparisons of antenna efficiencies to be made by comparing reported power vs s/n r
LF Wisperers,.. I've just started my WPSR RX setup, so will look from time to time to see how the QRP signals decode. 1st period has just ended, 2104 -17 G4JNT 7dBm ERP! Good going... Should make int
Hello Jay, Nothing seen as yet, no trace on the WSPR waterfall, nor on Spectrum Lab/grabber. Will keep checking in the shack as the night progresses. Spots are being uploaded as normal to WSPRnet. Go
Hi Jim, LF, Things were going well, some slow QSB took you from initial -12dB down to -20dB. Just as you started to climb back up I'm engulfed in a statically charged snowstorm! I'm using my short ca
Mal, You are, of course, entirely wrong in this assumption/observation. Just because your ears identify RTTY easily doesn't mean that's the most common mode. When you tune across 14.070MHz during the
I believe they control the visual sensitivity and contrast of the waterfall display, nothing more, and probably aren't important for decoding. Others may have more information. I haven't adjusted the
Hello Gary, LF, I'm getting a fairly reliable signal from you, with just enough QSB to dip under the decoding margin from time to time. As to power reporting, I see that most people on LF/MF are atte
I was of course being facetious (sp?) with that statement.... ERP is ERP is ERP Now.... Gary has just got across the pond, more than once, with a SMALL antenna and 2mW ERP... just think what 2mW ERP
PS - I have the grabber uploading at 5 minute intervals showing the range 508.000 - 509.000 http://www.sighthound.demon.co.uk/gm4slv/gm4slv_500.jpg Cheers, John
Okay Graham, I see others reporting inconsistent decodes of you on the chat page at WSPRnet, so it's not just me. The last few have been okay, and weaker. I'm having no trouble with Jim's +5dB signal
And the problem with this is? It is intended to be used in this manner. However, if your PC clock was accurately set and you observed on a waterfall displar regular traces starting on exact even minu
On Sun, 25 Jan 2009 16:34:34 -0000 Hello Jim, LF, Currently listening to your QSO on CW with Chas. This is the first time I think I've heard you on "real man's CW". Even in wideband mode, so I can co
Why? By specifying Dial frequency, which is set both on the TX/RX and in the software BY ALL INTERESTED PARTIES, one provides known 200Hz window, within which one can be confident all participants in
Hello Jim, Don't do anything special, I was just wondering if there'd be some signals around tonight. I've not tried 136 before, so it's all a new ball-game. I'll keep an eye on the band and see if a
Hello Andy & LF, I've just started receiving WSPR transmission from Andy G4JNT, first decode seems to have been 0902 UTC All spots are being uploaded to WSPRnet Nice work, for daytime, almost 1100km,
Not sure what the problem is? Where are you Lee, in geographical terms? Shetland is a LONG way from England - it's a long way from Scotland, truth be told! ps I've started a grabber showing 503.5 - 5
Hello Dave, LF, 136kHz hasn't really interested me before, but I've been quite successful in RX mode on 160m & 500khz, due to the favourable RF environment up here in the wilds. I wanted to see how I
