Hi Daniele, LF,
Yes, it is a very nice story of new activity in Italy. Carlo is a
freind of Mauro/IK1WVQ. Mauro was the one who received my beacon signal
at night, about 2 or 3 weeks ago. It was his first amateur signal
received on 137 kHz. I forwarded his mail to me here to the reflector...
Then, Mauro told his friend about the amateur signal and Carlo became
interested. As a quick test he connected a frequency generator to his
HF antenna, whithout matching i.e. having a coil. Just 20V was applied.
But the signal became weakly visible at Mauros QTH, a few km distant.
Then Carlo, who has a good TX antenna situation became LF infected
which is good :-)
Then he obviously buit the coil that can be seen on the site of the
link below. But Mauro told me he still runs the 20V generator and is
now building a LF PA. So i expect we will see another station from
Italy soon :-)
BTW Mauro set up a LF grabber running at http://www.qsl.net/ik1wvq/
Right now there is EW6GB, G3KEV, DK7FC and the weak local signal of
IZ1TJM on the screen.
Would be interested how the signal of IK1HSS would look there ;-)
