I am seeing what looks like the brightest show in many years. It even can be seen at 45 degrees south of overhead. http://www.geocities.com/we0h/lf.html
I purchased a kit for a capacitance/inductance meter a few weeks ago from http://www.aade.com/ and it is working excellent for building my LF station. It took a couple of hours to build and has no al
Hi Wolf, Yea it’s quiet in the US also. There are a few thunderstorms around the country this week. It is a pretty sunny and warm spring day here today. I should get out and finish my LF loop t
Get that bottom run at least 5' up from the ground and it will work much better. Do you have any trees to string the #12 wire in??? I have a LF loop with the top run at 60 to 70'. The bottom run is a
Go here and you will find many of those IC's http://www.usbid.com. Enter in your IC MC8309P and you will see a whole bunch of them available. 73's, http://www.geocities.com/we0h/lf.html A friend and
You can never have enough equipment. Buy it if the price is right. 73's, http://www.geocities.com/we0h/lf.html Hi all, does it make sense for a lowfer-freak buying a SPM-6 with PS-6 from W&G (6kHz -
Hi Mal, It won’t be that bad. Have any of the European signals been heard in the middle of the US before??? What is the direction in degrees from the central US to England??? My loop runs NNW/S
Hi Bill, That looks like a piece of cake to me also. I could make my lower run out of 1/2" copper pipe, but the vertical sections and top run would have to be wire of whatever gauge that would suppor
How about lacquer thinner??? That seems to eat through most anything. A solder pot might do the trick as the enamel most likely isn't rated for that high of a temp. http://www.geocities.com/we0h/lf.h
I did that once on the US Lowfer reflector. At least we all know your phone number now so we can call you up and say good morning. Hi Hi. 73’s, Mike>WE0H http://www.geocities.com/we0h/lf.html -
Fire 'em up there, wild Bill!!! http://www.geocities.com/we0h/lf.html Mal and group, I was just pricing out various sizes of copper pipe at the local builders department store for the next "dream" (o
Nah, only verticals start fires!!! Really I haven’t seen an antenna-induced fire as of yet. 73’s, Mike>WE0H http://www.geocities.com/we0h/lf.html --Original Message-- From: majordom@post.
Rik, I switched to the serial port and of course rewired the connector and changed the interface to a PNP transistor. All is fine and well now. It has been running all weekend without any trouble. Th
Yep, and when I switched to the serial port, it worked. I only got .6v out on the collector, so I am going to put a stage in there to give me 5v and ground for the swing. It'll work with the Epson af
I am using Windows 3.11 with the QRS 3.17 program and keyer design that comes with the program. I am keying an Epson Oscillator with a 10k resistor in series with the collector of the NPN transistor.
I agree. There is nothing wrong with trying any antenna. I hope the group has a good time with that big tower. Maybe their signals will make it across the pond for us to see. This is a mostly free wo
Dang, now that would start a tree on fire!!! http://www.we0h.us/lf.html ... What credit could I claim for a a signal on 73/136 khz swamping the band at hundreds of DB's over S9 Hmm..... What is he us
This makes sense since the loopers around the US have found out that the loop current is highest during the dry days. When it rains, the current goes down. 73's, http://www.we0h.us/lf.html Dear LF Gr
