Re: VLF: DJ8WX 8270.004 Hz

Hi Uwe,

 

great signal here, better than ever! On my grabber http://www.df6nm.de/vlf/vlfgrabber.htm it's well visible in 478 uHz, and even traces in the 3.8 mHz "600" window during the early morning hours. The SNR would probably have been sufficient for an Opds-4H detection, but I'm glad you just left the carrier on.

 

I had fixed my frequency offset and you were spot on 8270.004, albeit with occasional transmit phase glitches widening the 42 uHz trace a bit. Sorry about the apparent 0.8 mHz up shift after around 3 UT, it is an artefact caused by a too narrow setting of samplerate tracking tolerance (0.2 ppm).

 

Thanks very much for this test! It's a pity that Mal hadn't left his RX on overnight.

Hi Markus,
just now reading your mail. the switch off time was some min after you sent it..
sri for that.
now the TX will stay on the air until tomorrow abt 0900utc.

Hopefully Mal reads this.

Uwe is again producing very good traces on the European grabbers. Even in my noisy location I am now getting a nice peak in the 42 uHz FFT (slightly higher due to an uncorrected 0.25 mHz error in my frequency readout).

 

Uwe, do you intend to stay on longer tonight?
