Hello Stefan !
You're right! Those effects have been observed before. Ossi and I have
watched different closely spaced grabbers (like mine and DF6NM) and
found very similar results. One explanation for this effect is that the
reflecting layer in the atmosphere isn't even and smooth but rather a
"wave"-shaped moving structure. We observed signals coming from east
appearing strong on my grabber and after a while they get weak here. At
the same time DF6NM records stronger signals and this process repeats
with a rough period of half an hour.
So that is what Ossi calls "the Wave" and the goodwill of Mr. Heayside
(makes a difference of at least 20db)!!!
