Hi Mike,

Thank-you for the report.  It's gratifying to see that the QRP sigs
are crossing the pond.  Evidently, the joys of LF TA are not
the exclusive domain of those with Decca amps and huge aerials.

Decodes were also seen on the TF3HZ OPDS site and evidence of the sigs
were seen on Markus' spectra at 137.555 kHz.  The opera will continue
tonight.

Thanks to those who provided reports of the QRSS100 QRP sigs and to
Henny in particular and to F1AFJ, Markus and Hartmut for their grabbers. Traces could be seen at times on the G4WGT grabber. I think there are some not mentioned. Sorry about that!

Very much enjoying your book, Mike. It was a Christmas present from G3LMD, Joe Sr.

I finally got OPDS working properly having replaced my sound
cards with Virtual Audio Cable - very difficult to set up
but worth it.

Last night's Opera Deep Search results included the usual
SV8CS and  RN3AGC, but also VO1NA (0208, 0243, 0648 and
0723UTC) and four transmissions by PA0OCD at 358km who was running
5mW. Neither of the last two were readable here on the
standard Opera software.

The OPDS software, by Markus, DF6NM, is really effective,
but it has taken me a few weeks to turn a good Opera set up
into a good OPDS set up, during which Markus has been most
helpful.

I am not able to transmit at present as the gales we are
having every two or three days have tangled my antenna wires
in a tree.

Mike, G3XDV
