Dear all, Assuming that we're sticking to 1W erp then what does it matter how big the antenna is as long as the power is sufficient to give the required erp? CFH peaks 33dB above the noise regularly
.....................There is a VE station building for the band and he intends to try some tests next "fall" from VO1. That should do it! Yes - if he can hear anything behind the 750 kW Loran transm

Let's get a date fixed and allocate frequencies as soon as possible. I will fire up the 1kW amplifier again and, subject to there being no storms, will try out my Stratoscoop 4 kite as aerial lifter.
John, beware that there is a 200ft height limit on kites in the UK without special permission (presumably from Air Traffic Control). Mike, G3XDV (IO91VT) http://www.dennison.demon.co.uk/activity.htm
... talking about kites: there is a wonderful place in the Republic of Ireland (I am a fan of Irish Music, see http://www.piperswine.de) south of Doolin at the west coast of the island. Here a cliff

Interesting anyway, but is this still amateur radio transmission or rather scientific experiment? Or, at least, I really don't have atomic time base in the ham-shack. 73, Petr, OK1FIG Hello LF-Friend
Would amateurs be allowed to relay the one second pips from time-signal stations? That should be synchronous across the pond. The receiving station could phase shift their local T/S pips to correspon
My question was not as much serious as it perhaps seemed. I am sorry for this misunderstanding. Vice versa, breathlessly I read all those thoughts and ideas how to cross the ocean. With a thrill I wo
as Alan has observed before, transatlantic condx appear to be quite good lately. Last night's spectrogram showed CFH on 137.742 peaking 26 dBuV/m I trust your meaning 137.042. This tone cum carrier
My apologies to the group, my last e-mail was intended to be sent only to Peter. Put it down to adrennalin. 73, Brian 73 Brian CT1DRP IN51QD 41 09 58N 08 39 11W http://homepage.esoterica.pt/~brian
Peter it has been like Christmas all over again. I had carried the Decca up the two flights of stairs on Saturday and set up the tuning and loading yesterday morning. Also measured the antenna input
Hi Brian I would also like to join you all. Though the vfo is stable, I checked overnight against the existing transmissions, it has only 1Hz setting resolution. Seen in VE; what a splendid start! Co
Mike, Thanks for the capture -- nice to get all these Christmas presents! John Andrews Better conditions last night than for some time. A good signal from VO1NA and best ever from XES. Capture is at:
