Great, it seems
to work! DJ8WX had
apparently interrupted his carrier for an hour but has come back. To
my surprise, I seem to be making it to Appingedam as
well
Thanks to Lubos and Peter for monitoring and
running your excellent online grabbers, and to Uwe for motivation and
company!

Hello Markus, VLF!
I am looking forward to see your signal on
my grabber. It would be fine to see both signals, from Uwe and you,
together.

This afternoon I have
resonated the venerable seven-bucket VLF coil to my home
antenna on 8.27 kHz, and I'm currently running a test transmission on
8270.020 Hz. Assuming appropriate weather conditions (ie no wind and rain,
but cold and grey so that the neighbours won't want to enjoy their gardens and
complain about the tone), I intend to join Uwe 5 mHz below his
carrier, for a couple of hours starting sometime around 8 UT tomorrow. The
signal will be weak (10 uW ERP) but I'm hoping to leave a trace in Lubos'
grabber window.
