Hi Stefan
Tnx QSO on MF
Think how loud my signal would have been if you had been
using the same TX antenna for RX. The micro antennas work but not so good for DX
listening for radio amateur signals.
I have a choice of several antennas for RX purposes but
normally on 500 khz use a 40m quad loop orientated to RX E/W and used for
QSK work and the TX antenna is 1/4 wave inv L full size on 500 but used also as
RX antenna when needed.
The Quad loop is resonated at the desired
frequency on LF es MF

Mal,
Tnx for QSO. There was solid copy from the first
moment. I just didn't know that you are calling on 501...

At last a QSO hi.
Tnx for the QSO a few minutes ago and the 579 report. I
cfm u were 569 solid copy with heavy QRN on the
band.
Yes, massive QRN. But i like QRN as long as the
signals are still perfect copy! That makes a exciting feeling of amateur radio,
all missed in QRSS...
BTW: https://dl.dropbox.com/u/19882028/MF/G3KEV.WAV
(10MB, the mp3 converter does not work soemhow) Just have it in mind when you
talk about my ears... Ah and BTW the reception was done by using a micro
antenna, an active E field antenna that was hold out of the window, just 1
meter. The probe is a short variable length antenna from a UKW radio (allows
experimenting with different probe length..)
At the end you peaked up to 579 good signal.
Glad to be your first CW QSO on MF
...the first UK stn.
The first ever was PA3ABK.
