Dear all,
Today we finally succeded the LF QSO at SP5ZCC with SM6PXJ. I
was transmitting on 136.500 30s per dot and Christer on 137.000
with 3s per dot. Thank you Christer for the FB setup which made
it all possible! Here I am using only a simple 'QRP' TX (150W)
which seems not to be heard anywhere but at his great station,
in a quiet location he lives at. If he did not put the receiver
on-line during the weekend I would not have had a single reason
to believe that my setup works at all... It was the first QSO on
LF for us as well as probably the first QSO with another country
made from SP at all on 136kHz band!
Thanks also (last but not least) to Dave, G3YXM who helped me a
lot, starting with the super web page (my TX was based mainly on
his descriptions) and a lot of helpful e-mails he sent to me
when I was in trouble with finishing the TX. I would like to
thank also OK1FIG; the loading coil was made after his design.
OK this is not going to be Oscar Awards, so I will stop here,
but there are many more people who helped me and even made
interested in LF. Now it is the good time to build a better
power supply as well as more stable VXO. I hope that soon we'll
have a better antenna in the club as well, even though this one
proved to radiate some of the input power.
I am looking forward to meet you all on LF one day!
73! Marek SQ5BPM
