This is just a link to the diatnace to VTX, for increasing the
fascination...

Hello Peter,
Tnx for your comments again! Yes, there are still some lines that
should not have to be where they are ;-) But anyway, it is the best
reception i ever had. Now it's time to generate a test signal on the
dreamers band ;-)
Also tnx for your last mail. You said i can receive VTX India @17 kHz.
This is one transmitter that is very weak but visible anyway. The
distance to me is 7795km. Very interesting: Type this in Google Earth:
"08.387015, 077.752762" and you can see the towers of the
transmitter... So, i spend a VTX window on the bottom of my 2nd
grabber. VTX appears up to 25dB above noise in 4,5mHz (equal to the
DFCW-600 window). Slowly i get fascinated by the whole VLF band ;-)
Peter (or others), do you know a USB soundcard, that is able to run at
96000 ksamples/s? There are a lot of USB soundcards that cost not even
5 EUR and do a very good job (currently i am using such one) but most
of them have a filter for 48000 it seems...

Hi Stefan,

Thus, the strong LF and MF broadcast signals are well attenuated,
as it seems. I am interested what happens in the night, when QRM goes
down and the LF/MF DX window opens. The grabber2 is still available at

Looking good, congrats! I wonder about that signal visible at 2100
Hz. It
shows a typical MSK-bandwidth and a diurnal run not unlike the others
above. May be it's mirrored from next Nyquist-domain:
24000 + (24000-2100) = 45900 ==> NSY, Sicily, usually very strong.
Gruesse aus Kiel,
Peter
