Hi Stefan,

Attached a google earth picture where I have inserted the 42m long open wire feeder (yellow) running from my house
to the 2x156m horizontal V-dipole (red).

Hi Clemens,

Thanks for the report. I've just stopped the TX, the experiment is over. Will prepare diagrams and a summary now.

Oh yes, i can see plenty of solar modules arround that QTH... Is your house the one close to the forest or on the other side of the street? If it is the house near the forest, you could easily arrange a 200m long wire or place the RX in the forest, using an active antenna and some 100m long coax cable :-)
The shield effect of the trees is not so strong on MF than in LF, that was my first impression in a recent test...

I will QSY to 137 kHz, transmitting 2 QRSS-120 sequences  on 17:30 UTC for Edgar in Tasmania and come back to 472.5 kHz CW in the late evening...

Back soon with the results...

73, Stefan/DK7FC

PS: We should be in the limit of the groundwave range on 630m.

Stefan,
 
still aural copy of your
signal (which would even be strong enough for CW) on 478,7
with S4 and a SNR of 6dB in 100Hz BW
despite the surrounding photovoltaics arrays which are ubiquitous in
Bavaria.
But I have to resonate the dipole exactly and what is even more
important I have to balance the 43m long feeder strictly
i.e choke common mode currents
Otherwise I would hear only noise at this time of the day.

OK,sorry, I see now that 477 is *dial* qrg.
Your sig is S9+ on 478,7kHz.
 
DF0WD is S9 with qsb on 472,5kHz now.

Stefan,
 
wouldn't it be better to choose a slightly different qrg to avoid interfering with the carrier
of  the 'RP' NDB beacon (which is BTW masking your signal here)?
Perhaps 500Hz up or down would be fine.

MF!

I just started my TX in OP4 mode on 477 kHz dial. Will run in until sunday evening. BTW the PA was not damaged, it was just a under-dimensioned fuse which i used for the first tests and forgot to replace it by its actual value. Now the transmission should work without interruptions, i hope.

Would be interesting to have some 24 hour monitoring data of the complete saturday, so if you like to take a part in this "study", pse run the RX during that time :-)


Tnx and 73 to all, Stefan/DK7FC

G.., It was probably due to thunderstorms in the US and SA. YV7MAE had to QRT due to heavy lightnings...
