Re: LF: LU on the air

Hi Oscar

I have local QRM from CW beacon near wateringhole.  Reception here is dramatically affected in a negative way.

Email sent to op but no response yet.

Hi Oscar

I'll be watching with grabber here.  My large loop is aimed right at you.

Looking forward to longer tries :-)

Hello LF

 

I´ll start on monday the transmission tests from South America.

Unfortunately, Argentina is the only country with permission to operate at these low frequencies across South and Central America.

So, I do not expect someone to copy me in Europe because of the great distance and my humble station, but maybe there is some closest station that can give me a report.

I shall be testing using cw QRSS 60.  The transmission will be "LU" (too many dashs in my suffix)

Time between 02:00 to 03:00 UTC daily for a few days hoping to extend it later.

Frequency: 137,776

Ant: inverted L : Vertical 20 meters, Horizontal 3 wires 20 meters each spread 1 meter each and a top coil of 1,1 mHy.

Output power: 500 Watts.

Valve transmitter home-built. PA: a 4-400C tube.

My locator: GF05rn

If someone want to change my transmission rate, please let me know.

Very grateful for any report.

Thanks and regards to all.
