Ok Stefan
Well GM4SLV is monitoring at the moment
, I see you did decode during
the day round 0800 he was
reporting -30 dB , that's very close to the limit
, as he has a quiet location -31 -32 may be possible
......
Interesting , 0400 / 0600 no decodes ?
Last night your level was -8 dB ,
and would of been ok for CW qso
, if you could receive my signal of course
!
but for most of the spots, the power level
was 20 dB over the noise floor , so 1 watt should
decode at most monitors
Q not sure on the 476.5 ?

Hi G.,
Yes i know, thanks.
Well, it is still the
groundwave distance. There are some stations in PA monitoring but this is to far
for the groundwave at this power level i assume.
DK8IZ is 17km distant. I
didn't know that there is someone who watches the band so close to
me.
But you should decode me at this power level at night.
Is my
announcement for the common CW sked at 21 UTC on 476.5 kHz visible?

So far so good then !

round -31 dB ........
From the map, you can see what
stations are monitoring and what qrg

Hello MF,
I just started a QRP beacon on 477 in OP4
mode using 1W TX power (not ERP).
Maybe someone can receive me??
