RE: VLF: Sunday morning test 8270.020 Hz

Hello Markus, Peter and VLF!

Well done! There are two signals on my grabber now. Great!

Markus, your VLF set is doing very well. Although you are useing  "QRP" only (as you wrote in your e-mail), the signal is nicely visible here. Congratulation!

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.
