Looks like a few stations testing in the back garden at
the moment Ed,
PA1SDB , posted this in the yahoo group, I like the ref
to '' interference from other 8 KHz testers :-)'' be nice
to have that problem this side of the north sea !
Mini Whip looking to be the Ae of choice for the moment
?
Stability , should be ok for +/- 250 mHz in the 4
hour period , scaled from the 32 and original 64 version

Positive copy here while testing localy.
07:23 8 PA1SDB Op4H -25 dB
02:48 8 PA1SDB Op4H -26 dB
*********** 03/05/2012 ***********
22:19 8 PA1SDB Op4H -12 dB
*********** 02/05/2012 ***********
Now decreasing power to see where it ends. The RX computer is
connected to the PA0RDT Mini Whip, so i'ts getting lightning
QRN, play station noise, vacuümcleaner noise and interference
from other 8 KHz testers :-)
TX is a notebook, some wire and few 100 mWatt audio output at
a open pice of wire.

Hi Graham / second try
This one wasn't returned as luncheon meat it didn't get there at
all.
Second decode was -44dB, about 10dB / Noise in 46mHz. Signal level
varied and about 20% data lost in a block, XYL re arranged the
configuration of the dining table antenna, they just don't
understand!

Tnx Ed,
Steady carrier, that should be one of the advantages of
Op on 8Khz , no real problems with sound card 's and
frequency stability !
Look's like you may have some signals from PA soon ,
not sure what's happened to all the UK Tx stations , I
know there was a problem with having to inform the
met-office ..
