Albert You were audible here vy poor in qrn about 329 on my E/W 80m Vert delta loop but I did not hear Jim on the broadside of my loop, completely nulled out. I did expect to hear something from him
Ah, hello Jim, LF, Just read your mail, a bit late ;-) At least now the band seems quiet. Not sure how it will be in the evening. Since i want to try from /p i need a sked, at least 2 hours before. D
Dear LF Group, The QRN level on 136kHz has finally died away, and I was able to record the attached spectrogram, showing DK7FC calling CQ around 1755utc, using my prototype ferrite rod antenna. On th
Hello Jim, What a surprise, i didn't expect such a story as a result of my spontaneous transmission ;-) Congrats to your compact and well performing antenna which will be good for holidays and /p, if
Jim, LF, I will go out of the city now, for a CW QSO on 136.5 kHz. Have already prepared the LF system and link. No lightnings so far in a radius of 1000km and above. QRV in 30 Minutes. 73, Stefan/DK
Dear Stefan, LF Group, At least now the band seems quiet. Not sure how it will be in the evening. Since i want to try from /p i need a sked, at least 2 hours before. Do we want to try in the evening
Hi Jim, Fine. Let's see how the noise is then. Hopefully i can hear you. Since the high-Z amp isn't ready yet, i will try your 50 Ohm preamp (from the bandpass loop article) with my 50 Ohm winding on
136.5 kHz CW Thanks QSO Jim, very difficult copy due to QRN hr but I managed to get my 459. I heard you calling twice to Mal but he did not respond. TX power hr was 500 W. I hope prop will be a bit b
Dear Stefan, Mal, LF Group, Thanks for the QSOs earler this evening. DK7FC/P varied between RST349 and 559, and was generally a good readable signal on the ferrite rod antenna. The background noise l
Dear Stefan, LF Group, Yes, 136.5 kHz would be more useful for a CW QSO. We really should try that ASAP. Are you ready for transmitting? I need to work out some sort of T/R switching for the ferrite
Dear Stefan, LF Group, A bit late getting started due to having to sort out an earth wiring problem in the shack, but now the ferrite rod antenna has T/R switching and all seems to be working fine no
Mal, What i like is a real QSO, not more reports. There is almost nothing going on on LF, so why stress yourselfe with short QSOs? Why building up a complex RX/TX LF system and then doing 30 second Q
Thanks Mal fer the RX report. Ur RST 449 during ur CQ abt 18:30 UTC. 73, Albert Albert You were audible here vy poor in qrn about 329 on my E/W 80m Vert delta loop but I did not hear Jim on the broad
