Very nice signal from DK7FC this evening, and a few fragments from G3KEV on my 20m x 50m loop. John, W1TAG Very good signals early tonight http://www.w1vd.com/grabber.html Thanks for the heads up Jay
Dave, Thanks! The movie title suggestion has possibilities, though I'm not sure I'd want to watch the film... John, W1TAG/WD2XES Ho Ho beacon (XES?) copied at 0600z 25 Dec 2011. I noticed the dot pat
WD2XES is running Opera32 on 137.520 kHz (136.000 USB) tonight. W1VD and I have run a couple of daytime test sessions on Opera. It's tough to make real science of this, given the vagaries of noise, i
Rob, Thanks, it does appear to be locked on, just not quite making it. The vagaries of fading may be the culprit. John, W1TAG 2012-01-29 22:49:37 >WOLF10 -r 8000 -f 1295 -t 1.0 -w 0.0000 t: 24 f: 0.8
Markus, Nothing seen as of 0300, other than the usual infinite number of monkeys typing away. Will let it run overnight. John, W1TAG On 1/26/2012 5:39 PM, Markus Vester wrote: WOLF ... good idea! My
Terry, Alas, we've lost the Loran calibration method over here. My current approach is to use a 1 kHz signal divided from a 10 MHz GPS-disciplined source. That signal is used for two things: 1. It ma
Stephan, WOLF is 10 b/s bpsk, and should be run through a linear PA to limit the bandwidth. Even at that, it does not have PSK31's carefully-shaped envelope, and thus consumes about 40 Hz BW. John, W
Markus, Then I'll start on that frequency at 22:00 UT, unless CFH returns. Same as last night, WOLF(10) until 0600 UT. John, W1TAG/WD2XES On 1/29/2012 1:00 PM, Markus Vester wrote: Dear LF wolf hunte
Whoops. Just realized that CFH is running on 137.0, so the USB trick won't work. Will try to get creative! John, W1TAG I'll be watching over here tonight. John, W1TAG FN42ch This is based around my P
Hi Vernon, LF, yep, will have another go at Wolf-10 this evening, starting 21:00. Hope it's ok to be sitting on John's 137294, until about midnight. Unfortunately this is going to be the last from th

Albert, Thanks for the report -- I saw the spots on-line. The unusual callsign is a work-around, as Opera cannot parse WE2XGR/3. John, W1TAG / WE2XGR/3 23:57 500 WE3XGR de PA0A Op16 5658 km-34 dB in

Jim, And for the ultimate in TA DX, consider my little "TAG" Lowfer setup on 185.800 kHz in Maine. The 1-watt Class D PA is fed with a keyed 24V power supply with a sine-shaped rise/fall time of abou
WD2XES will be running WOLF(10) on 137.294 kHz tonight starting around 00 UTC. If CFH comes back on in the interim, I may have to QSY, but they appear to have been off all day. Reports are welcome. J
Markus, No luck. Not a quiet night, and TA prop does not seem to have recovered. John, W1TAG Nothing seen as of 0300, other than the usual infinite number of monkeys typing away. Will let it run over
Jim, Absolutely interested. I watched last night with no luck. I need to come up with some way to limit the receiving BW, as the WD2XGJ signal is extremely strong here. This will obviously perturb th
Still have the .wav files here. JA The first WOLF crossing appears to have been on 136 khz: *"18 Mar 2001:* W1TAG reported reception of M0BMU who was using the new BPSK mode WOLF." First 73 khz TA: *
Markus, Forgot to report -- nothing seen last night. I will try transmitting tonight starting at 0 UT, frequency to be announced later. John, W1TAG On 1/28/2012 1:49 PM, Markus Vester wrote: Dear Chr
