Saturday 17 April
Re-installed antenna and rig after portable operation (almost all of
my station goe to GW).
Very noisy band from next door's TV, light dimmer and computer.
Some relief using my directional 1m loop antenna but this will only
cope with one noise source at a time.
Heard: G4GVC (599); EI0CF (559); G3KAU (much stronger than
before at 5 9+10 9).
Worked: G6NB (gave him 569, got 559); G3BDQ (579, 589 - a new
one).
Saw on Spectrogram screen: DF3LP ('O').
Sunday 18 April
Local noise stayed on all day, ranging from S5 to 9+10dB.
Heard: G3YXM (599); G4GVC (599); PA0LQ (349); PA0SE (559);
G8?X (239); G3OLB (569).
The local noise has not gone below S5 since I put the antenna
back up - very frustrating.
Note that I am having problems with my web site. For some
strange reason it has just started to reject any page called
activity.htm (which happens to be my main LF operation page). I
can call it anything else but that!! So for a report on the GW/P trip,
see the temporary address below. Note that the site's links to
activity.htm do not work at present.
