Chris, I recall throwing snowballs at a flaming tree one winter evening. Small fire -- mostly the insulation on the wire for my loop antenna. But the tree bark had definitely joined the blaze. So, it
Paul, Conditions were much better last week. We are currently in a coronal hole flow which has depressed the northerly LF paths. Dst numbers are around -70, another indicator. DCF39 was way down last
Paul, I had to wait a bit until the fading gods relaxed a bit, but was able to copy your N1BUG CW ID just before 2332Z. Copy was easy through a 30 Hz audio filter. K3RWR's carrier is is also plainly
Markus, I was out last night, and did some looking when I came home, but failed to find Rob's signal on 137.490 kHz. Nothing seen during the day today. But tonight, I see a likely signal on 137.395 k
Markus, Just to let you know that others are looking as well. I've easily been able to decode the K3RWR transmissions, but have had no luck with the EU signals thus far. Still working through the pos
Markus, Thanks very much. That frequency appears to be OK here, at least to a casual examination. John, W1TAG Best 73, Markus (DF6NM) Markus, Just to let you know that others are looking as well. I'v
Paul, All, Congrats on the summer reception, and I hope you can do something 2-way. From my humble QTH in MA, I operated on 2200m from 2004 until 2015 or so. Looking back at the logs, which were prop
Paul, It's almost certainly CFH. It's been quite a while since they burned off the cobwebs on their 137 kHz setup. Was almost wondering if they gave up on the frequency. If they start modulating, I'd
I have asked him for a description of his receving setup. Will post the results here. John, W1TAG I do not believe he could hear Europe stronger than he hears the strong stations close to him. How co
Stefan, A number of DK7FC fragments were received during the night. The best copy was the sequence that started around 2150Z, missing only the "D". Another sequence starting around 0250 was very clea
Stefan, The attached shot had the ID starting around 2150Z. John, W1TAG Many thanks for watching. Can you show a small capture of the traces. It is always good to see something. Good to see that some
Stefan, And this one was has the "D" starting at 0250Z. Conditions might improve in the next two days before another coronal hole flow starts up. We're nowhere near the good conditions we had before
No real DFCW or fuzzy clouds detected last night, just the occasional DK7FC bright spot. I was closer to a coastal storm than Paul, which may explain the difference. John, W1TAG
I ran the "new" and old versions on separate computers last night, but had no decodes. The as-yet unlocated local sproggie on 137.620 is possibly the culprit. John, W1TAG
Well, finally some results! I have been running two XP computers, one with the original WSPR-X (v0.8 r3058), and the other with the current wsprd.exe (plus dll's). There were no results over the week
Joe has raised those questions before, and I've assumed that he has not been happy with the responses, including mine. Maybe a greater number of opinions would be of help. Regarding #2, the averaging
Stefan, Last night might have been better without the static from storms in the southeastern U.S. It was still fairly quiet here at 2230Z. John, W1TAG Thank you. I saw you watching the recent days an
Question: I have a homebrew receiver with I and Q outputs that I built some time ago. It has a 10 MHz input which is divided down to 125 kHz, and my old HP GPS receiver is still working fine. It woul
