If the guys get some long distance on the 8kc band, then it might get popular in a hurry. I have an amp that will easily put 500w plus into a 2 ohm load at audio frequencies. These amps are readily available to everyone. I think the earth probe antennas would be a worthwhile experiment, but who knows what will develop on this band with vertical efficiency. It surely would be interesting to have a fellow put up a huge vertical and see how far it goes when matched properly and driven with a kilowatt plus amp. Being close to the salt water may be a big benefit at audio freq's too. Don't know until we get someone to give it a try. Cross the pond from UK to Eu? Maybe possible...The progress on the LF and MF bands has shown that anything can be done when many people take part in the experiment and share their knowledge. Now where does a guy buy those huge balloons to hang a vertical from? I'd be interested in trying that if helium is not too expensive on this side of the pond.

I do have the space and radio masts to make some impression plus generators for 9 kcs but the effort would not be worthwhile. I am kept very busy here at this QTH and elswhere and do not really have the time. Off to Ireland soon to the alt QTH and more work !!!! I do have a 120 feet mast installed there so might work you on 500 if I get time. I usually take a rig with me and have worked LF/MF from there in the past. Look out for GI3KEV/Tyrone, a few miles to the west of Lough Neigh - good take off for LF/MF 73 De Mal/G3KEV |
