Subject: Re: VLF: New test from Heidelberg on 8970.005, on air
VLF,
Transmission stopped arround 13:25 UTC due to upcoming strong winds and
rain coming closer from 200 km distance SW now.
I hope to go on soon.
Thanks to all monitoring stations! Haven't expected that such good
readability would be possible in this time of the year (remembering the
15th March 2010 ;-) ).
73, CU, Stefan/DK7FC
PS: LF, DK2TX is testing in QRSS-60 at 137.776 kHz,

Never seen him before.
