Hi Lubos, Gerhard,

Very nice. I saw both of your signals in my "6000" and even in the "600" window, http://www.iup.uni-heidelberg.de/schaefer_vlf/DK7FC_VLF_Grabber.html.
VLF propagation is exceptionally good, even yesterday many MSK transmitters were significantly stronger than usual.
Tnx for the activity and good luck now in the afternoon Gerhard.
Lubos, your signal seems to be quite strong. FB antenna and 600mA at 120W (= 330 Ohm) is really good! Can't you run longer tests on that antenna? Yes i know, i could do the same here ;-)

Hello VLF friends!

Thanks for all reception reports. I am glad, that my signal was seen by Gerhard/OE3GHB, Markus/DF6NM, Eddie/G3ZJO, Mal/G3KEV, Stefan/DK7FC and Paul in Todmorden.

I haven´t a plan to transmit so long time today. Both, Gerhard and me, did some experiments in DFCW mode only. Than I kept my signal up until 12:00UT :-)

It was very interesting VLF morning. Thanks everybody!
