This is nuts! We finally move the US WSPR stations out of the EU WSPR 502.4 window down to a new US WSPR 499.6 window so that those that want to monitor can have a clear shot at the EU stations. Then
Jay, LF, I'm not confused but astonished. Lets be glad there is some activity. I fully agree to the comments of John (GM4SLV) This is just what WSPR is designed for. Compared to the classic DX bands
Jay, LF, Fair enough. I still think we're all better transmitting and receiving on the same part of the spectrum - as this maximizes the number of sources and sinks all being available at the same ti
Jay, LF Some interesting points to consider! I understand your basic thrust, and would, in general, agree that WSPR won't really work under the conditions you're describing, but I've put some thought
John, Group Good discussion. While you might currently get some spots from the US stations in receive mode this number will go down as more US stations become active as the season progresses. More WS
Hello Jay, LF As a receive-only participant in this field (I have no possibility to apply for a permit) I can only guess why some EU stations have chosen to move down along with the US stations: One
John and group Your 'data mining' produced some misleading results and conclusions... There were no "super strong groundwave" reports from W stations - in fact nothing in +ve SNR figures at all. The
Jay, LF, Now I'm confused! The bulk of the active USA WSPR stations are down at 499.6 "dial", with RF carriers just inside the UK allocation at 501.1 One or two US stations occasionally might choose
Most transceivers can be operated in split mode now, isn't this a workable solution ? And anyone with separate Tx / Rx setups has got split frequency operation by default Andy www.g4jnt.com On 3 No
Hello Andy! Yes, your suggested solution works fine with TWO different WSPR copies running and configured for different frequency windows. One WSPR session for TX and another for RX. It can also work
Andy, LF, Yes, I can (and have done) operate in Split mode - as I have separate RX and TX - but my point is that we should all be in the same place - I believe the concerns over "strong locals will d
Albert, Jay, LF, Indeed it is! One last comment, looking at the figures...... In the last 7 days the best reports SNR of a W station on WSPR was : 2010-10-31 04:44 WD2XSH/12 0.501151 -1 0 DM79gx 2 KL
Hello Jay, LFers, I totally agree with your comments Jay....I posted something to this affect just last week on the LowFER reflector. Having a "window" for eastbound signals and a different "window"
