Stefan has fixed the PA problem and is getting >
1A antenna current. Today this requires only about 400 W input, due
to favourable wet ground conditions.
The DFCW keying is somehow not working, so Stefan
has basically transmitted a long carrier since 10:50. He has manually
shifted the frequency down by 0.05 Hz at 11:20, and back up at
11:30.
Best wishes,
Markus

experiment
yes. The rain has ceased, and the kite is going
up well. Stefan had a problem in his "big" PA, so since 10:15 he is
using about 300 W from the smaller one. Antenna current about 0.6 A.
Frequency measured here is 2.3 mHz below 8970 Hz.
