This is a meaningless argument about 25 watts and range on LF. One needs to
know about the actual antenna in use and the resulting ERP.
Early UK experimenters in the South only managed a few hundred metres on 136
and could not be heard North of Watford and most are still struggling in
that area. This info appeared in the LF comic at the time.
Some how the big signals eminated from the Midlands and North as far as
Scotland and still do.
There were also some big signals from EU at the time, unfortunately now all
gone QRT, all active on CW.

Hi Warren,
depends on what you call a neighbour.
In the early days of 136kHz I worked stations up to 400km under
similar conditions.

Tnx Laurence,
If he's running 25W into a 25m (horizontal?) wire on 136kHz he will
have to get some of his neighbors on.

Hi Laurence
Thanks for your e-mail.
Yes, I got license form the department of Telecom in JA ( Sohmu-sho) last
month.
I make CQ many times everyday around 1200 UTC but I have not got QSO
with
any station.
I guess there a very few licensees in JA ob 136KHz.
So if you find my signal please QSL me.
My TX is modified IC-731 output 25W.
The antenna is long(short?) wire 25ms long.
