Very nice to see this working at LF with short symbols. The phase was stable enough for the 20 or so minutes of each transmission on this path of circa 1000km. S/N of IZ7SLZ at DF6NM suggests that a

The soundcard becomes a liability for coherent signalling at LF. The fiddly software is all concerned with coping with the wandering soundcard conversion rate. Yes, a small amount of hardware replace

Found myself ordering a Trimble 10MHz GPSDO the other day. I have a Thunderbolt but don't want to dedicate it to a receiver because it's handy in the lab. You might consider the packet format used by

Spent some time today cobbling together a receiver for 137 kHz. System noise measures about 4nV/m equivalent field strength in 1Hz with a BF245B front end but I've not yet attached it to an antenna -

The signal is much too strong to be a good test, you should still decode quite easily at DF6NM if you drop to 5W. I got the system noise down to 1.5nV/m per root Hz which is far lower than it needs t

I have an E-field rx running on the 137 kHz band, GPS locked. Here is the 'first light' spectrogram http://abelian.org/tmp/lf151023a.png which covers 137 kHz to 138.5 kHz. It's a bit shaky, everythin

From about 18:08:20 to 18:41 there was an immensely strong signal on 137508.82 Hz which looks like carrier but was very rough. Spectrum in 5mHz bins http://abelian.org/tmp/lf151023b.gif Looks like I

Thanks for the info. If that's an Opera signal then maybe my timing system isn't working so bad after all. I see. Hmm, a lot of energy in the carrier! Hopefully there will be some snippets of pure ca

Having decoded the 20:00 UT 22 character message, I re-encoded it and used the symbols to phase modulate the received signal. The result is an unmodulated carrier which I can take measurements from.

Today I ended my brief foray into 137 kHz. The battery was going flat on the rx so I took it down. Reception at LF seems quite easy compared to VLF: much lower noise levels and much less interference
