Hi Jack, Ok, so i'm continuing to write on the reflector. It is not at all a waste of time to read the conversation. Most potential newcomers are in a similar situation like you and they may be inter
Hi Jack, I agree with Stefan that a loop is not a very good choise to transmit on LF, for the simple reason that the radiation resistance (Rrad) of a loop drops with the 4th power of the frequency, w
All, I am reading these posts with interest. Within the next 2 weeks, I will be able to transmit on ~8 khz from SW US (Arizona). My antenna is the one in use currently for WH2XXP on 630m and 2200m. I
Hi Ward, Wow, that sounds fine. Do you know the antenna C or the coils L? I estimate it is 1.8 nF, so you need just ~ 200 mH for 8270 Hz. With 100W and an assumed loss of 250 Ohm you will get 630 mA
Hi Stefan, Thank you for the technical support and reasons to go with a big coil instead of a big loop. The main reason I originally chose the loop was because of the size of the property we have her
Hi Stefan It appears that Amazon will not ship that XCSourse GPS Locating Module NEO-6M to Canada. I questioned XCSource why this is so and I'm waiting back for an alternate or answer from them. Ther
look for ublox neo-7m modules. they will go over 10MHz (neo-6m modules will generate <1kHz). they were avaliable on dx.com, ebay.com and other auction sites. these will work <10MHz (according to manu
Stefan, I measured my antenna today at 8.275 khz. At resonance, I measure 228 ohms. You had predicted 250 ohms so I feel good with that number. Winding the matching toroid now and I will begin transm
