Whew got a connection! (thanks to Martin FKK and Peter LDO for the relays) -
Severe storms and water/lightning damage means landlines are noiset.
136 Khz on at 16th at around 1000Z - DCF39 was seen immediately (suprised) -
local qrm/n is variable and much quieter than I had thought, but there have
been no local storms. Signals peaked towards the North/sOUTH so the loop is
fine.
Signals weakened and by 1400 had all but dissapeared. At 1940Z signals came
out of the noise and gradually got stronger peaking (very strong - as strong
as in Jan) between 1000-0425 when DCF dropped off really fast. Im not seeing
anything of DCF39 at the moment (0700Z) Im running 4 windows, 772.5-775 dot
60, a bit wider on dot 30 centered on 773, DCF39 and 770/780 for the US
beacons on dot 60.
No HF licence but back to the ministry today. So no HF talkback at the
moment -also have to repair some coaxs with UV damage.
System is on 24 hours - occasional SMPU noise wanders through the passband.
Doppler yesterday was the "normal" 0.15 Hz (sorry Id love to see 1.5Hz!) -
this was my fault...The doppler/mpath is with DCF all the time.
Sorry but this mode is intermittent - If I have anything new Ill try to
phone Peter/Martin.
