Dear John and LF group,
DF6NM identified
... what a nice surprise! But, after the kind reports es wishes from Laurie
and Alberto, how could anything go wrong? Thanks a lot for listening and
watching!
Your sigs seem stronger than when I saw you last year.
... in spite of much less power. In February, I had used a 65m balloon-borne
vertical, easily radiating 1 Watt unless pushed by a slight breeze. This
time, it was my "normal" small LF ant, which has only a 170 pF top load, 11 m
above the roof of our two-floor house. In the cold weather, the total
resistance goes down from abt 36 to less than 30 Ohms, and my 130 W TX
produces 120 mW radiated power (220mW EDRP). - Besides better condx, using
DFCW mode may also have helped.
Thank you for all !
73 and best wishes for christmas
Markus, DF6NM
