Has anyone heard any signals on 500kHz during the last 24 hours ? Here only white noise no static no signals ! Was it the earthquake ? or did my ant. fall down. 73 Laurie.
Tonight I am transmitting on 136.320kHz for 2/3 hours, from 20:30. QRSS60. I hope this freq. is clear of all others yet still within the window at KL1X 73 Laurie G3AQC
Laurie you must have a great S meter, I could only copy him S8/9 with deep qsb and that is on a 190m vert loop. The 1w erp will certainly help, instead of struggling most of the time, there should b
Hi Mal, Thanks for the QSO , at least I know that the Ant. did'nt fall down, but would have expected a better report since now running 1W. Don't know what my intermitent problem was ! Band more livel
Hi Gary and Rik, Many thanks for the replies. I tried it again and found that the voltage on pin 7 goes from -12 to +12 when "Key" pressed ! I simply had'nt noticed the polarity change on my voltmete
Laurie. I can hr that warble, think it is someone using an appliance mode. de Mal/g3kev -- Original Message -- From: [email protected] lawrence mayhead To: [email protected] r
Does anyone have experience of using a computer without RS232 for QRS. I have tried to get an output from the 9 pin serial ports on my computer, it appears that the -12 volts on the appropriate pin (
Jay This grabber is not reliable. I do not see G acty either not even my own signal when in fact I am getting good reports inter UK and xband from EU. It is too far north away from the majority of G
Laurie - Ill be in KL7 15-20th March and looking forward to trying 500/137 to Eu - Let me know if you can run some DFCW as Im sure Im going to be blessed with some horizontal lines. Laurence 9V1LF e
Hi Paul, Apart from any "ASPERGER" problem, your comments re. Ant. design are very interesting. In the 73/136 days, getting ground losses down so that one could approach 1W erp with anything less tha
Thanks Laurie and others for the kind words re: grabber. The grabber RX (AR7030) is fed from my main 500kHz TX antenna and I discovered over the weekend that it was very off tune after more Shetland
I belive beacons serve a useful purpose on 136 and 500kHz, both in terms of propagation experiments and in the design of receiving equipment. If a certain station in the north of the country finds th
This could be a backward step for those of us using Argo/ Spectran etc to look for weak signals. All DSP receivers including the Icom 756 Pro 111 are not able to turn off the AGC. Hence when looking
Thanks for the signals Gents - nothing seen of you last night Laurie. Reasonable DFCW signals from WPF just above you, but QRN wasnt helping. Ill run it again tonight 138.318/320 dot 90 slow Eu or
