Hi all, CT1JTQ will be RXing WSPR on MF this evening again. Has has been there yesterday for the first time. As far as i know there is no permission to TX on MF in CT but he said he likes RXing anywa
Hi Luis, Yes, he just told me that he got a visit from some friends and did not find the time to become QRV. But today, he said... We will see... The WX is very suboptimal anyway, LOTs of QRN, at lea

Hi Luis, BTW. Those 24kV at 800 W can explain some pictures shown in this reflector ;-) I know someone who has up to 45 kV rms on his LF antenna... Will test it at low power first and see what happen
Hi Luis, He has a SDR-RX and an Icom R72. He lives in a quiet location and told me about a 83m loop (i assume a horizontal one) and a 63m inv-L (don't know at which height). I didn't see photos so fa

Hi MF, While there is nearly no chance to leave decodes above 400 km in daylight above land, it seems to be no problem above sea water. As soon as the first hop (?) hits the ground on water, the wave
Hi Alan, Well, it is not a new effect that i've discovered, maybe i should have added this, as usual. I'm here talking about MF, i.e. the 630m band and there is no daytime range of 1000 km above land

Hi all, Yesterday i got my set of 2 of these stereo mic input soundcards suggested by Alan and Paul-Henrik :-) It is as compact as the old one: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/19882028/MF/Soundca
Hi all, There are vorbis streams available on VLF by Paul Nicholson and Wolf/DL4YHF and a few more known people from the scene. As far as i know these are in vorbis format, like my MF/VLF stream. Wha
Hello Paul, Thanks, that could be most useful here. Interesting to see the little loss at q=0.5 / q=0.8 but the much lower data rate. I'm also running VBR but q=1 so far, and got 215 kbps. I'm going
Hi MF, does someone remember this mode? :-) I'm calling CQ on 472.2 kHz. Maybe someone can hear it and likes to try? The4 band may still be closed at some locations though. Grey-line is coming! :-) 7
Hello Markus, Thanks. This is helpful for many people trying to improve their RX equipment. A QRPP beacon! Don't we have a nice hobby?!! :-) 73! Stefan PS: Tomorrow ordering parts for a stereo MF RX!
Hi Joe, With 50W, even from your antenna, there is no chance for an aural copy here. Maybe for stations with a directional antenna living closer to the sea. But even today, there is no chance i assum
Hi Markus, Thanks for your DFCW-30 transmission. I can see you clearly in daytime on my RX in the city! However i can't see you on my RX is the garden! The remote system seems to run stable now, at l
Hi Markus, Really? Wonderful! :-) And the stream is still running. I'll watch it some days now to see if all Raspi problems are gone, then the next part-project is the RX. Meanwhilethe sky wave is pr
Hi Markus, Thanks. Indeed, i actually saw you in the morning with "O" copy in the garden, while it was "T" copy in the city. Switching from the T antenna to the loop didn't rise your SNR (to that tim
Hello Markus, Most interesting, thanks! Let us use the strong QRN to check if SL does perform better if the SpecLab NB is used in front of WSPR. Ah i could use a 2nd instance for a 2nd instance of WS
