Hi Stefan, been lurking here on the rsgb-lf list for about a year I
think. Have been on the Lowfer list for quite a few years. Not in a
real quiet location. The best times to listen for Europe coincides with
the neighborhood evening activities, not always bad but most of the
time. Finding the best times here seem to be around 11 pm to 3 am local
time in the morning. Rig is a R-75, the loop I am using at the moment
is a Wellbrook 1530-J along with a Kiwa filter, running Argo in QRSS60
when I am watching on 136.172. I watch the grabbers for prop
indicators, and to make sure of activity. You have been doing a great
job, hoping for some increasing propagation this way and maybe I can get
at least a hint of your signal over the next week or two. Won't know if
its possible unless I'm listening!

Hello Mark,
Thank you for the interesting informations and for watching to my
transmissions.
DN41AF, wow, that sounds like the hardest challenge so far, but who
knows :-)
BTW are you new in this group? Never heared before of you. :-)
Is your loop in a quiet location? Which program and settings do you
use for receiving on 136.172?
Looking forward to your reports and do my best to radiate a decent
signal tonite.

I noticed Laurence, KL7UK had his Alaskan Snapper on HGA22 tonight,
having never looked for this one before I gave it a shot and there it
was! I copied it for a bit on my Ratzlaff active whip, without
realizing it! Switched to the loop and it was stronger on it. But
nice to see the whip works down there nicely here amongst the houses
and QRN. DCF39 was doing quite well, so now I am down a little lower
looking on 136.172 for DK7FC.
