I do not think the TF grabber is as sensitive as it used to be.

I am always in the shack when Transmitting looking for a reply either on my frequency or a QSX freq. This has always worked in the past with TA stations or Russian stns calling me normally on 7033 Khz. I could stay up late but YV7MAE would need to indicate that if he heard/seen my signal he would call on an agreed HF freq or LF/MF etc
I prefer a report via radio rather than via internet. My QRS limit is normally QRS 60 or faster but not slower.
I am sure if I persist I could be heard/seen in YV and I was on 40 metres a few nights ago and worked some S/American on CW so it would be easy to have a xband QSO
I am using a single element QUAD on 40 metres max sig N/S so no problem for a N/S QSO
73 tnx info

Hi Mal,

It would be helpful for YV7MAE if you provide a strong signal at night, on that QRG. Your QTH is somewhat more noth from mine so Martin can turn the loop a bit more CCW, which significantly reduces the QRN coming from Africa. He has now the chance to reduce the QRN coming from South-South-America. BTW you could make the first UK -> South America detection ever (if i'm informed correctly).
His grabber is at http://dl.dropbox.com/u/74746618/LF/YV7MAE_LF_Grabber.html
However, the band opens not before 23 UTC, so it would be a long night if you can't run the TX while sleeping.
Distance between you both would be 7302km. See the path, it's almost only water: http://no.nonsense.ee/qthmap/?qth=FK81BD&from=io94sh
There are more and better chances in the coming months, anyway, an exciting challenge, isn't it? :-)

73, Stefan/DK7FC
