Hi Rik and LF You have caught me out on ERP because I don't know it has not been measured but my TX was measured at about 60/70 Watts into a dummy load of 70ohms about 200volts P-P across the load. T
Pete, this spring I started on 500kHz with a 9m high / 25m long lazy-L antenna and 100W TX power (abt 300mW ERP). I worked GM4SLV (Shetland Islands) at over 1000km and was heard in OH at 1600km. So i
Hi Rik and LF Yes I have been running short QRSS sessions with my new higher powered TX so hopfully it was me. I will be out of the loop for about 7 days but will look out for you when I get back. My
Hi Pete, what power / ERP were you running ? When conditions are good (good propagation, low QRN) 10mW ERP should be enough for a basic CW QSO. Yesterday a QRSS QSO was possible, your signal was a so
