Has anyone crossed the pond on 73kHz? I could probably convince the FCC to grant an experimental license, which I might be inclined to do if I decide that my life is not frustrating enough :-) -- 73
I've got emails indicating I received QRSS from Laurie, G3AQC, on 73 khz in November 2002. I didn't find a capture on my current computer. I've upgraded computers several times since then but still
Warren, Not 2-way, obviously. Just before the NOV expired, I did copy Laurie, G3AQC, in early December. See: http://www.w1tag.com/files/AQC-9.jpg The band was not pretty for receiving over here, with
All, Looking at recent plots and listed VLF/LF stations active there would appear to be room in the 70-74kHz region for some amateur activity in Europe without risk to other services. I wonder, serio
Laurie, G3AQC, always had a better signal and as he was on at the same time it is probable he was the first EU station to be seen in the USA or Canada. Regards Peter, G3LDO Warren Ziegler wrote: Has
AAAArrrrrgggghhhh Sold the old 73kHz loading coil at FR Hamfest last year :-) But yes. 73 was more interesting that 137 turned out to be, whilst not being impossible to do something worthwhile
There is still a UK allocation smack in the midlle of the old band......now in the VT Comms (Anthorn?) portfolio I guess.....this made reception very difficult here when it was continually idling at
I keep one of those old fashion paper logbooks. I have recorded John W1TAG received my QRSS20 signals on 72.4kHz on 9/11/2002 and11/12/2002 both 'O' reports. Also recorded is Dex W4DEX on 12/12/2002,
Hi Roger, Andy, LF, Roger, that sounds a great idea, I was sorry to have missed out on 73kHz as I only "found" LF when that band was due to be closed. I can't remember what (if any) reason for the cl
