Hello Stefan
End of February it's all over and we go back to our shacks with the tiny antennas. May be we will get an opportunity to use the tower later, as I understand they will leave it as national heritage. The next possibilities for a sked in CW is tomorrow evening. My friends Iacopo and Claude-Alain will be at the station and I could advise them by Email or phone. Or Friday early in the evening.

Hi Toni,

Thanks Rik
I've read somewhere that DCF39 has 40kW EIRP. So we would have around 4W EIRP. Last week a station measured our field strength, 100km away and came to 0.4WEIRP. This is probably a little bit to low. Anyway, it shows me again, that most amateurs overestimate their ERP. Even Mal has probably not the Watt he claims ;-)

Yes, maybe that applies for me too ;-)
BTW, Toni, i would like to try a sked on 137/137 in CW from JN49IS36VH with you if you are interested. When do you have to make QRT on that antenna? Can't you ask them just to let the antenna arranged as it is, for amateur purposes!? :-)
