Fine John just the info I needed. I will revert to the wider spacing. 73s Laurie. --Original Message-- From: John Currie <[email protected]> To: [email protected] <rsgb_lf_group@
I wont be able to start until 22:00utc tonight. Slightly different format, DFCW, shift now 0.15Hz centered on 135.922. Also slightly shorter inter-element spacing (15secs was 20 secs) saving 2mins on
Thanks John for the report. Very encouraging to see that 30sec dots are coming through even in indifferent conditions,and my power still 350mW!. I am sure DFCW is the answer at least for now,until so
Hi all. I was transmitting 30sec dot DFCW from 20:00 until 07:00 last night, on 135,922 +/-. I saw G3XDV above me on 135.923,but have no idea where the interleaving signal comes from. Looks like prop
Hi John and All, Glad to hear that there is still some TA propagation. I will run DFCW tonight using 30 sec dots. Dot freq. 135,921.5 dash freq. 135.922. I am very intrested to see wether this mode g
I am running the beacon tonight as usual (135.922 kHz ) but Dexter reports heavy QRN still.Perhaps we have run out of the low noise conditions for this winter! I will await further information and ad
Sorry John, I did'nt run it last (Sun.)night.Went to bed early Hi! Conditions appear to be very disturbed at present so I am wondering wether to continue on a daily basis, wait for better cdx.,or meb
NASA says more CMEs so tonight may be last chance for a while. Running slightly differently in response to Alberto's pics. Still use 30 sec. ARGO but my dots 40 sec long with 20sec gaps. Looks a bit
Hi Roger, Dont worry about advanced topics,everyone on the reflector will help with any queries,they certainly did with me when I started.Yes the LF Experimenters book is the "Bible" Many people have
Thanks Alberto for your excellent picture of my sigs, and comments. This pic. is better than my local monitoring ! but of course there is no noise visible,and I guess it is this which blurrs the inte
Thanks Peter for your comments.I can see that there is a graet deal in what you say about high output (large size) high "Q" LItz wound loops. The high Q does the filtering ! and no Amp is needed so N
Thanks to all for your comments and encouragement. I suppose I should really like to be able to respond to Rik's ideas about synchronisation between the TX and RX,but I dont have the necessesary prog
Many thanks to everone who responded to my comments on pre-amps and loops.I am still not certain what to do-but at least have some more ideas. I hope that the resulting discussion was of general intr
Thanks to John we are getting some useful information on T/A in less than ideal conditions. So I am encouraged to continue with the beacon at least for the next few nights when Alan thinks condx. may
Hi All, I have been thinking about weak signals on 136 using QRS and DFCW. These techniques enable signals to be read which are buried 30db down in the noise(see Extreme narrow bandwidth techniques O
