Dear Mike, Rog, LF Group, Over the last 20 minutes or so (to 2115utc), GW4HXO has built up from a faint trace on the spectrogram to a RST 439 level, just as twighlight fades away at my QTH. Frequency
Hello Jim and group, Your comments totally confirm my experience on 500khz. I have occasionally heard G3KEV and called him with no response, conversely he has heard me and I have not heard him--Mal w
Dear Rog, Yes, please send the mp3 - that would be interesting to listen to. The noise level here is a few dB higher in the E-W direction on the loop than it is N-S. Mal's signal is about 9 - 10uV/m
Jim, Re day-time land-path cw sigs; they are there but the limiting factor is site noise-levels. I have solid/steady copy of kev but with little noise-margin - a few dBs of noise would kill it. Also,
Hi All, I do agree with Alan & John, there is room for all modes of operation & as it is an experimental allocation we do need to assess all permitted modes under many various conditions. 73 Gary - G
Hi Mike, Just audible here in Lancashire, not quite good enough for QSO, SpecLab is showing about 10 db over noise. 73 Gary - G4WGT - IO83qp Beacon on 503.8 now @ 10.25 BST. Is this frequency clear?
Gents, There seems to be room for everyone, even in 3kHz, given that beacons (both QRSS and CW) can all sit quite happily crowded together, leaving room for QSOs in the rest of the band. Perhaps a ge
Dear Mike, LF Group, No sign of your signal here in IO91VR north of London yet. I was watching my own beacon signal on GM4SLV's handy screen grabber overnight. There was pretty consistent reception w
Come on Dave.......if he hadn't been beaconing you wouldnt have known you could hear him !! Surely there are enough 200Hz slots on the band to move to for QSOs. We can do without snide comments, we a
I think a QSO with you is wishful thinking at the moment with my 5mW erp.... but I have just had an excellent QSO with Colin G3VTT, our first decent chat. I was just making a little comment about bea
Ok Dave. Do you want me to turn it off? Would you like to try a qso with me ? 73 Mike GW4HXO -- band ain't wide enough for all these beacons if we are to leave some room for actual QSOs... 73 Dave G3
Well I can copy you well (539) in the gaps of G0MRF's beacon (on about 503.75). Both well inside even my 200Hz filter.... band ain't wide enough for all these beacons if we are to leave some room for
Beacon on 503.8 now @ 10.25 BST. Is this frequency clear? Hope that helps 73 Mike GW4HXO -- Can't hear 'HXO at the moment, maybe he is not transmitting, but was very easy copy on Sunday - 'MRF is the
I am rather surprised at that Dave since you are not very far from me. Just checked again and 'UEP is easily copyable by ear just as he was on Sunday afternoon. Goes up and down a bit, at times Q5, m
Rog, LF. I've got a complete set of Argo grabs of the GW3UEP beacon covering the last 24 hrs. (34 MBs worth...too big to e-mail!) 1 The beacon is visible at this QTH for the complete 24h period, usin
Hi Rog, LF Screengrab of GW3UEP at 2107 utc. Just strong enough to be audible in peaks of QSB. Lots of static this evening, but I think you signal is definitely stronger. Still looking for GW4HXO...
