Hello Roger, congrats to you and G6ALB for this first succes. At 3km you are still within the near field (at a wavelength of 33km), so the fact that the EFP works best might indicate that the transmi
Hi Roger, First, congrats to the 3 km in QRSS-3! This allows you to do local QSOs well? This would allow you both to to a QRSS-3 VLF QSO!! Have you tried this? Am 03.02.2011 11:35, schrieb Roger Lapt
Hi Roger, Well, in my humble opinion you're use of 'earth' mode and so on is inaccurate. I think you have proved this more than once with your lack of results using your earth rod/house pipes! it see
Jim With an EFP the orientation did not seem to matter much at all and signals at least 20dB S/N could be detected in the shack. With the 80cm loop there was no signal detected in my house at all 3km
Hi Rik, I am pretty certain the signal is flowing along the water pipes but that the field around the pipes is much better detected with the E-field probe than with the loop. The EFP works very well
Chris and LF This is the point I have been making for some time, Experimenting with so called earth mode in an urban environment with a network 0f underground pipes and cables of various varieties is
Roger The reason you get Zero signal from you home earth mode is because the transmitted signal is not conducting/inducting into and via the natural ground, what you are getting is some sort of condu
Dear Roger, What is the actual limiting factor on reception with the different antennas? I presume by "best results" you mean best SNR - but is the predominant noise the band QRN or local man-made st
The same advice as from others go into the open countryside away from all pipes and cables and do the job properly. Set up a transmitter as Stefan does out in the forest and then try an earth mode an
