You are welcome Spiros!
for the QSO you are more close to mount Olympus..
and may be could intercede with Mr. Zeus for a better weather here so I can fix
the antenna! It's more than 1 month after an insulator broken (just on the top
of the antenna..) and the new insulator is ready but I hate to climb my mast in
the rain!
Anyway due to the distance I guess we can have with
easy a QSO soon also during late springtime/summer.
Keep on! I cross the finger for resoults in
YV!

Thank you Marco IK1HSS.
I need (and waiting) for a QSO with you on LF.

LF,
let me add my congrats, specially to
Spiros!
Unfortunately the bad weather which delays
reparation to my LF antenna doesn't allow me to join in the challenge...when
the weather improves the season will be probably gone so will try to be ready
for next season!
At this time the MF TX is almost ready and
waiting for an antenna..it is still raining so spend this holiday day
refurbishing the LF TX wth some small improvement..
I'm also intrigued for a trial on 9 kHz..but is
not clear how is the legal stand here: officially, according the national
frequency assignation, frequencies below 9 kHz should be free for short range
applications and I should simply notify the communication authority and inform
them about what I'm intended to do, but as you probably know, in Italy is not
so easy and there is a not written law which states "only officially allowed
task are permitted" the general "if not forbidden is free" rule could be a
risk unless you like to spend time in the court!
Henny, how is by you? Did you get a special
authorization?
Enjoy MF, LF VLF!

Well done, congratulations to the four of you!
I would absolutely agree with Stefan that the traces from Joe and Spiros in
America are beyond doubt, and they also perfectly line up with local Eu
captures. Note that Spiros is quite a bit
further than us here, and the ground reflection after his first hop is on
land.
Thanks Stefan for mentioning mine among the
"strong stations", but I have to say that I am not even hoping to come near
that attribute. Actually in my opinion, the "warming of the ionosphere" by
your powerful and consistent beacon signal is quite valuable for us weak
ones:
- it's a very useful indication of propagation
versus noise level on the other side. By the thickness of Stefan's dogbones,
we know when we might become barely visible ;-),
- it provides a perfect time and frequency
frame to which we can reference lonely bright pixels and partial
traces,
- it is an incentive for potential remote
receivers to run their spectrograms and grabbers,
- and last not least, being shown what can be done is a
motivation for us to learn and improve our modest setups.
So let me say thanks to all
involved, for keeping this hard but wonderful band so much
alive.
Best 73,
Markus (DF6NM)

John Jay, Joe, Spiros, LF,
Jay, John, thanks for
capturing our signals from EU.
And congrats to DF2JP for beeing
received at W1VD, not bad for almost May! Looks like Joe counts to the
strongest LF stns here in DL, apart from DF6NM and me.
About the
traces of SV8CS at W1TAG, i find the traces are quite clear. And i would
vote for calling this an official detection of SV8CS in the US. Distance is
7491 km, http://no.nonsense.ee/qthmap/?qth=FN42CH&from=km07js,
very impressing!
So my congrats to Spiros!
What do others think about
this detection?
Looks like it was a successful night on LF
:-)

Spiros,
I received an interesting signal last night. If you compare the
screen shots at G4WGT:
http://www.w1tag.com/files/G4WGT-SV8CS.jpg
to the screen shot at WTAG:
http://www.w1tag.com/files/W1TAG-SV8CS.jpg
you will note a correlation in frequency and in part of the "8"
and part of the "C" in your callsign.
This does NOT prove
reception, but suggests that the signal may have been there. Conditions
were fairly quiet here last night, and the Dst has recovered to reasonable
levels.
