Hi all, Two TA decodes were made by WD2XSH/17 last night. Timestamp Call MHz SNR Drift Grid Pwr Reporter RGrid km az 2015-09-24 01:52 DK7FC 0.475683 -30 0 JN49ik 1 WD2XSH/17 FN42pb 5927 294 2015-09-2
Hi all, Last night there were excellent condx on 630m on the TA path! G8HUH, F5WK and DK7FC managed to be decoded in above 5000 km in WSPR. I've got exceptional good SNR reports!: Timestamp Call MHz
Hi Stefan, a wspr -6dB sgnal is audible ? The question is this: with this condition and if necessary a bit more power it is possible a cw qso? 73, Fausto IK4NMF -- Original Message -- From: selberden

Hello Fausto, Good quastion! I've made a quick test and reduced my TX power so i can receive me in my garden at -6 dB SNR. I then switched to CW and recorde a wav file. So the background noise is rea
PS: So let's assume you can do QSOs down to -9 dB in 2500 Hz, reasonable comfortable (i mean real QSOs, with some content except "5nn JN49 tu", i.e. not just a test. Or an always repeating NDB call i
Hello Andy, You'll see that down to about -14dB S/n (2.5kHz) is just about detectable as an audio tone - although I doubt many even experienced OPs could read CW that low <<< Using a 10 Hz bandwidth
Stefan, A -6 dB SNR would definitely have been CW copy had I not been: 1. 200 km away. 2. Asleep. Anyway, it was a good night. I note with interest that this was the first night in some time that the
Hi John, interesting.....thanks for the plug :-)) Good nights rarely occur when Dst is lower but are not guaranteed when it is at or higher than -20nT. I still haven't got a grip on that on the level
There were some good transpacific paths MF last night too - vk to kh6. And w5 to vk and even up here in northern ve6 inter west side if usa was pretty reasonable but nothing from the east yet I think
W1TAG/1 means that many weaker stations could have made the path as well, in that time slot! Stefan & All: It was "Close but no cigar" here in EN90xn last nite. A fade at the last 30 seconds of your
Those outstanding receptions have apparently triggered a fair amount of MF WSPR activity last night. Unfortunately it seems the good conditions did not return - no more TA detections have occured, an
Hi Markus I am wondering whether the WSPR or Opera results could help me understand some underlying variations in propagation that I dont seem to be able to pin down. Stefan reports two nights with s
After one quiet night, the MF TA activity increased last night. Dave, AA1A (WD2XSH/17) had 4 spots on DK7FC from 0124 to 0234Z, and 3 spots on DF6NM from 0234 to 0314Z. I (W1TAG/1) had 3 spots on DK7
Thank you John......those details tend to confirm the comment I made to Graham. the results from different receivers are dependent on their location. This is ratherwhy I suggested that one receiving
Hi John, many thanks to you guys for receiving and reporting! After nil TA during the night before, I was pleasantly surprised to find the distant decodes from Stefan and myself this morning. Apart f
Alan Note that reception here is never better than at Dave's with his ocean front location. During optimum conditions (for me) I can get close to his displayed s/n receptions. Many times I just have
Hi Jay thanks for that observation. That iswhat I had believed but wanted to be certain. There is obviously a "coast effect" at Dave's, probably similat to Joe VO1NA, though he is closer to Europe to
