Dear LF Group,
I transmitted Jason test sigs as advertised last night at 100W (1730 -
1750), 30W (1800 - 1820), 10W (1830-1850), 3W (1900 - 1920), 1W (1930 -
1950) and 0.3W (2000 - 2020), give or take a few minutes. Thanks to Wolf
for the reports in the gaps between transmissions. The ERP is roughly
0.0003*TXpwr, so from 30mW to 90uW ERP. The tests over the last couple of
days if nothing else show that Jason and similar modes are the way to go if
you really want to operate QRP on LF, or are stuck with a very small antenna.
I did hear IK2DED's QRSS3 signals further up the band last night, however I
was unable to respond at the time because I was trying to tidy up the mess
of cables in the shack! Giulio's signal was about S4 here.
Cheers, Jim Moritz
