MF !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ;-)

Edgar in Tasmania was recently asking if i have some plans about DX experiments on 630m. Well that is a path of > 16000 km. However we do not have real experience if that is easier than 2200m or rather impossible.

At least i know that there was not even a single decode by UA0SNV in my MF WSPR and QRSS tests so far, while it is no problem on LF (OK my MF signal is weaker than my LF signal). Thus i would guess that it is much harder to get some traces of a signal on 630m. We will try anyway!

I'm starting to run a QRSS-60 transmission on 476.172 kHz (+- a few Hz) for the night. Maybe someone across the pond will catch something. We, or at least i still have no experience about the QSB problem on very slow QRSS transmissions on MF. It would be interesting to see a spectrogram.

On air in a few minutes.

PS: No, not only beacon transmissions, i've just had a > 1 hour long CW QSO with PA0LCE and DK6SX/p! Also contacts to OK2BVG and S57A.
