Hi all, We had no luck last night with ZL6QH hooking up with UA9OC. We got what we thought were a few good keydowns on the expected frequency, but no useful message was received. We are wondering if
Hi all, Last night I got convincing results of the UA9OC QRSS60 beacon transmission on 137.7 kHz. I found the frequency offset to be +0.15 Hz at the time of best reception here (around 1500 UTC). I a
Hi all, ZL6QH is being activated on LF for an attempted QSO with UA9OC on 14 and 15 March, during the period 1230 to 1818 UTC. This is the time for a dark path between ZL and UA9. ZL6QH is going to u
Ed and others LF enthusiasts, Confirming our interest in trying for one-way and two-way contacts on LF with the UA9OC DXpedition. I am in private contact with Ed and we have a provisional schedule fo
I an post the details of operation as described by authors on his special forum on EH antenna. I'll be interested to see if it is categorised as a dummy load? 73, Bob ZL2CA
Hi all, ZL6QH intends to carry out all-night beacon transmission on Saturday 13 September, using 120 second dot length 0.2 Hz FSK, on a selected frequency near the top end of the 136 kHz band. Detail
Hi all, Advance notice, as some may have seen on the ZL6QH web site http://www.zl6qh.com we have a booking for more LF tests on the ZL nights of Friday 26, Saturday 27 and Sunday 28 December. The Fri

Hi all, I've just returned home from an night at Quartz Hill. The beacon operation was good from a transmission point of view, no time lost from before ZL6QH sunset to well after sunrise. The DDS exc
Hi all, ZL6QH will carry out a ZL all-night beacon transmission, on Saturday 13 September, using the same format as previous times, with 120 second dot length and 0.42 Hz FSK, with transmission code

Hi all, The third and last night of 120 second dot beacon transmission went well from our point of view, no down time and timing was maintained within 3 seconds of "on the hour" for the start of a "Q
Dick PA0SE, Fine on the test result. As you stated, the tested T has twice the amount of top loading wire (2x 20 metres) than the L (1x 20 metres). It would be interesting to know if a T is better th
Hi all, ZL6QH did not miss a beat with beacon transmission. A storm passed by overnight and our SWR rose moderately during heavy rain, but we doubt if it had much impact on radiation. We had no luck
Hi all, The overnight beacon from ZL6QH went without missing a beat. We used the DDS exciter with a shift of 0.42 Hz. Coding for Q was maintained within 2 seconds of starting "on the hour". Thanks to

Hi all, The final paragraph in the beacon notice had a mixup with sunset and sunrise. The final paragraph should have read: The ZL hours of darkness in late December are nominally 0750 UTC (sunset) t
