check)
A quick receive check is whether you can
actually hear the most distant Alpha transmitter as well,
ie. all three dashes on 11.905 kHz during the evening.
Another test is whether you can occasionally
see -40 dB modulation sidebands in a milliHz-resolution spectrogram.
These appear irregularly (often for a few hours around 6 UT),
and are caused by phase alterations on some of the Krasnodar
dashes. This is probably some sort of coded information, piggybacked on
the navigation system.

I likewise am getting around 30 dB sig above
noise with a non resonant antenna.With my 137 Khz array resonated on 9 Kcs the
improvement is at least 20 dB
better, unfortunately there is so little Dreamers
acty diverting the system is not worth while.

I've got
the Alpha with -60 dB and about 25-30dB over noise. Maybe I'll soon catch
the first "dreamer".
I am still not sure if my configurations are
allright now. But trying some antenna locations around my house brought the
best result at the postition I have fixed the MiniWhip now.
I hope, it's
good enough. Otherwise I will have to quit thinking about receiving at
home.

VLF
I had some spare
time today and checked VLF Alpha on 11905 minus 65 dB and loud with 150
metres non resonant inv L.
My rx has a 1
Khz bfo offset and on speclab the calibration looks ok for normal acty but
at QRS600 it might be a different story!!
RX af is LSB/USB
selectable at 3 Khz and 20 Hz
No signals
visible on 8.9 Khz, nice clean screen
Anyon active
?
