Heard the 'QRP' beacon signal from Graham G3XTZ this morning at about 1030z,
on 136.00kHz with a dot length of about 30secs. Although declared QRP Graham
is only about 5dB worse S/N than his normal full power signal. The band was
very quiet this morning. Come on guys here is something to play with....how
far is he readable. I was using an 8sec integration time on FFTDSP4 (mainly
to get the call on the screen)
Well done Graham, I hope the PA lasts out, there is a slight sign of a sag
at the end of some dashes. Probably the the effect of increased ground
losses as all the worms congregate around your earth system for a sauna!!
