Re: LF: VLF - G3XIZ - 4/5th June 2011

Will try to look for you on VLF on both days but access to the PC and VLF kit is difficult as our grandson is still around and sleeping in the shack until Monday. It is quite possible that the PC will be disturbed by little fingers. Will try.

Good luck and I'll let you know how it goes.

LF,

 

I have permission again from the Met Office to transmit on VLF this weekend.

 

I have made some slight aerial improvements so am optimistic that my signal will be marginally stronger.

Hopefully my loading coil repairs will have resolved the inter-turn sparking problems.

 

I shall be on holiday soon and hence QRT for the next 3 weekends.

 

On my return from holiday I shall be making efforts to increase my RF power level as my (permanent) aerial system is now about as good as I can make it.
