Hi Stefan,

I followed up your suggestion of elevating the wire off the ground and
it seems that there is some benefit in doing that:

http://people.physics.anu.edu.au/~dxt103/136/earth/3/

However, it's not convenient as I can no longer drive over it :-)
Overall, I am happy with what I see. The signal was received very
clearly at a distance of 140 km, which is nice for a 25W/QRSS3 setup
that can be further improved.

Anyway, I will continue my tests with comparing the earth dipoles to a
"typical" amateur inverted-L  LF antenna comparison (9 m up, 20 m
across).

73, Dimitris VK1SV
