Roger,
were you transmitting at 2218 and 2224? Faint trace seen at those times, but no
decode.

Thanks Chris G3XIZ for confirming my 10-20uW ERP
WSPR signal is getting 46km tonight with several spots. So far, no success
with anyone else, but I live in hope.
The answer has to be to increase
the ERP by at least 10dB - as I have been saying for far too long now - so
maybe I'll get on with this in the next couple of weeks. I can only see
another 3dB with improvements to the loop antenna, so the rest would have to
come by TX power increase or going for a Marconi.
In the meantime, I'll
leave the WSPR beacon on for a couple more hours in the hope that a few more
people in the 0-100km range may have some luck. The better spots from Chris
suggest this range is achievable. If you can copy me it will be a sign of an
effective LF receiving set-up!
