This sounds interesting and given time I might get Transmitting on the
Dreamers band.
Yes, give it a try! You know how it is done and need less effort due to your higher antenna C and mains availability.
You can surely be the first who will be visible in EU from the UK.

I have all the equipment suitable plus antennas but I am busy with other
persuits at present.
Take care and the time to carefully wind a suitable coil on a large tube. 60 cm, rather 80 cm diameter is recommended. You have Paul Nicholsons grabber in a not to far distance, which will be very helpful for the first tests!

VLF,

It's a long time ago that we put the focus on VLF. Today i want to
inform you about a new VLF Grabber at the Technical University of
Darmstadt, http://skmail.ikp.physik.tu-darmstadt.de/gvw/grabber.html run
by Christoph Maurer who is working in the nuclear science institute.
Seems they want to observe the VLF spectrum and try to make some
earthquake precursors.
I've been in contact with Christoph some month ago and convinced him to
share the received spectrum with us by running such a grabber :-) He
even runs a "DFCW-6000" window on that site. There are no CPU resources
for that at the moment though.
The distance to Heidelberg is 51.3 km,
http://no.nonsense.ee/qthmap/?qth=JN49HV80ST&from=jn49ik00wd so it
should be easy to get a reception on 8970 Hz (Dreamers band :-) ) even
in summer.
If i find the time in the coming weeks i'm planning a summer VLF event.
BTW my special permission to fly a kite in 300m AGL expires in June 2012
:-( These days, i'm not sure whether it makes sense to try to extend it.

73, Stefan/DK7FC
