Dear Graham, LF Group,
Well, not much to choose between the two here... see the output logs for
both modes at the 2.5W level below. Some selective fading was evident, as
you can see in the attachment, where the HF mode signal (at the higher
power
10W level around 2157utc) starts off stronger than the narrower EME
signal,
but the situation reverses during the 4 minutes or so transmission. But
there does not seem to be any definite advantage of one mode over the
other - both drop out from time to time during the deeper fades. Either
mode
would clearly have been viable for a QSO, which is quite impressive
considering the low power in use.
Cheers, Jim Moritz
