Horst,
You need to change the frequency of the "1st mixer" :
Options.. FFT Settings ... Center Frequency [Hz] .
This reprograms the software NCO, and thus the displayable frequency range.
Cheers,
Wolf .

Hello all,
I have the same question. The 9khz_4mHz.usr can not be set to 6kHz just by
changing the frequency range or the center frequency. I am sure it's a simple
trick, but I could not find out. So I will have to use other settings - or
someone has a quick hint.
QRM/QRN is relatively low this morning. Possibly to high, but I will igve it a
try.
I am receiving with my T-Antenna and a my new hombrew preamp and soundcard.
Stefan, good luck - and to all the thousands of listeners, hi.

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.

Hello Peter,
Better say 6,6 +-200 Hz. It is still not certain where the resonance
will be, sorry. There are to many assumtions, estimations and
calculations.
On 137 kHz the measured C for 100m is 580pF (measured with a RC bridge
and by measuring the L and calculating C). But EZNEC shows a lower C.
This could be, since a 100m vertical is not absolutely short against
Lambda and so the sems to occur some impedance transformation which
"looks/behaves" like a higherC.
On <9 kHz the 100m wire IS short against lambda and so i loose this
benefit. There, the actual C is present. The L of my variometer part in
the BIG coil is estimated to be 30 mH. Maybe it is even more and the
overall L is higher than L(coil)+L(variometer) due to the better
magnetic coupling. So maybe i have less C and more L than thought on 8,97.
When doubling the antenna height from 100m to 200m and assuming 5 pF/m
the C is doubled as well. So i thought i will come out at 6,34 kHz
(8,97/sqrt(2)). But this may just a rough estimate. EZNEC says the C
factor is not 2 but 1,88 so i would come out some 100 Hz above.
So the question is:
What is the actual antenna C for 100m
What is the actual (maximum and average) L
What is the C factor when going from 100m to 200m
This are many uncertainties and so i didn't want to tap the coil at 70%
of the winding to come back to 8,97 kHz but first just to measure out
where the resonance will be, to solve these open Questions. Of course,
another important and very interesting issue is propagation in the 46km
band! :-)
So, sorry for that coarse frequency range. Maybe the actual QRG will be
written here in the reflector and can be seen on my garbber2 but first
lets hope for proper WX!
73 and tnx, Stefan/DK7FC

Hi Stefan,
Question: do you have a realistic guess of the frequency window of your
transmission around 6.5kHz, e.g. +-100Hz?

TX QTH is as usual in JN49IS, 49.77647N 8.699525.
Distance is 516km, heading 10deg. to Kiel.
Just modified the software running at ~17mHz of resolution. Antennas are
two crossed ferrite loops feeding some BC550 in parallel buffered by
NE5532. Both amplifiers are connected to a M-Audio Audiophile 192
running
at 24 kHz on an Intel Atom 330 "shoe-box" under Linux.
73 from Baltic Sea,
Peter
