In the early days of 73kHz Toni, HB9ASB, reported hearing faint CW on the 73kHz band but no signal was positively identified. I had many skeds with Toni to try and get a signal to HB9 on 73kHz but no
Never previously considered listening to 73kHz due to the interference. Will probably take a half day off work tomorrow and see what is happening. who will be txing on which modes and what frequencie
From Dave G3YMC Don't all get too excited about the prospect of Rugby being off Tuesday. The 60kHz transmitter is indeed often off on the first Tuesday, but normally not until at least 10am and for o
From Dave G3YMC In spite of my pessimism yesterday, Rugby on 73.4 has been off periodically during today, the first Tuesday, between 0845 and 1500. It reappeared at intervals , and I thought they may
Mike, GW3XDV and myself tried a QSO on 71.63kHz without success. It is interesting that, in spite of both of us being to able to feed 2amps into reasonable antennas, nothing was seen or heard both wa
I hope to be on 71.6+kHz around 1600 UTC (30th Oct) late this afternoon for an hour sending normal CW and QRSS. I have repaired the faulty module but will still only be firing on two (about 600w) unt
Hi Mike Will be on 71.735kHz QRSS at various times today and Sunday (if the antenna is still up). E-mail me if you want an inband or crossband sked. I hope to be on 71.6+kHz around 1800 local tonight
Mike, Laurie, Jim etc.. I hope to be QRV on 73k again in a week or so (Rugby permitting) so don't all go off again before I get things sorted out! 73. Dave G3YXM. After spending all day winding coils
I put out a beacon using QRSS3 today (Saturday) and will do the same tomorrow morning around 0800 on 71.650kHz. Any reports would be appreciated. QRSS signal clearly audible at around S4. Regards, Pe
Have been transmitting on 72.2kHz but mains harmonic QRM setting the noise floor so not hearing any signals. Will get my loop out of retirement to see if that can improve things. Will call 15 and 45
Mike and all. The pancake-day tests. I'll use 71.950 TX. Listening co-channel (noise permitting) and 136.7 for CW, 137.720 for QRSS3. I will call for CW on the hour (xx00) and for QRSS3 on the half-h
At last the high-level QRN has stopped. Transmitting around 72.0 from house over 100m coax to aerial loading coil by which time most of the power seems to have gone! Receiving G3XDV QRSS... and one o
Hi Ian Been copying Peter and calling him between last posting and this without success, and even Jim is down to M - and that is stretching it a bit. Weather rotten but that means antenna current is
