Mal,

Grow up and stop seeking attention like a two year old child throwing toys out of the pram. Your positive contributions are appreciated. Your jibes only make you sound a total idiot.

Hi Mal

 

Do you have to practice at being such a funsucker or did it come naturally??

This is even a bigger waste of time than 9 kcs. I doubt if anyone has the capability to receive on this frequency, when the majority cannot hear anything on 137 kcs

Mal, LF,

 

I will be watching for Stefan on 6.6kHz +/- 200Hz (not 8.97kHz as you keep stating) as you may have read in his mails. I will be using a loop & pre-amp as designed by Jim M0BMU.

 

Battery is now fully charged & system ready to go.

Who has a RX setup that will be able to look for your signal, I seem to be
the only one so far. There is a trace on 8.97 at present but noone else can
see it.
There is very little response via this reflector and vy little acty at
present on 137 and 500.
