Dear
Mal,
the QTH of DL3FDO is not too
far from the Frankfurt-Main and Mainflingen area in Germany, and this area seems
to be rather noisy on LF, may be due to the Mainflingen
transmitters.
As far as I know he had also
employed a loop antenna for receive, but as You will know, in this case it
dependes on the direction of the loop whether he may hear You or
not.
I have also had difficulties
to raise other calls in the Frankfurt area from my QTH in eastern
Bavaria.

DL3FDO seems to be the only opr that cannot hear me
around EU. CQ galore but seldom responds to anyone.
