The carrier was on air from 10:32 till 11:22,
and again from 11:32 till 12:02 UT. Antenna current peaking up to 0.85 A, which
would radiate about 2 mW. But the wind was not quite strong enough,
so the kite came down several times, and it's altitude varied a lot. I had
to quit after 12:02 due to continuous rain and no more
wind.
Thanks to all who were looking out, or running
their grabbers. It seems the signal was visible across Europe and also in
Iceland.

Dear LF,
today around noon, I will attempt another
kite transmission from the same site. If all works well, I
will send a 1 mW carrier on 8970.002 from around 11 to 14
UT.
Best regards,
Markus (DF6NM)
