Wonderful! I like the daily short stories about the various technical
challenges on the different sites. Also the weak and sloooooow but
visible traces on a wavelength of 33444m are very relaxing :-)
Gerhard, what is the output power and antenna current? That's a stylish
guitar amplifier, right? Actually we should define a nostalgical day and
use tube amps or keyed spark generators (don't find the correct word in
english now but you know what i mean).

Hi Markus!
You are right, I did a test in the afternoon. I obtained a Audio-PA
(Warwick Sweet15) from the scrap-yard last week and both of the
complimentary power-transistors were dead. I replaced them yesterday and
now the PA is working. I tried to connect it to my coil today and was at
least partially successful. I didn't use a GPS-locked carrier because
for the general test of the PA this wouldn't be necessary.

Hello Markus!
Yesss, I have seen my signal on your grabber. I am pleased! I just
finished "K". The weather is still perfect, so I will go my
transmission on. The another "K" will be transmitted.
73!

Lubos, today I've set up my VLF grabber
http://www.mydarc.de/df6nm/vlf/vlfgrabber.htm a bit faster (1.9 mHz)
to provide a bit of a challenge for your signal ;-) Your "K" is now
well visible while the noise is decreasing from hour to hour.
Good luck,
Markus (DF6NM)
