Hello Stefan.
I just start my RX now, hunting at your signal.
I’ll test the both antennas K9AY (in the 4 possible directions) and the 2
els out of phase verticals, to see the diferences. On day time your signal is
stable + / – 1 dB.
So, more info in the evening.
Hello
Andy, MF/LF,
Very good!! I see you also like playing in the garden ;-)
And i like to see that my daytime signal is of some use for
others.
Interesting results.
Now, how do the 2 verticals perform
compared to the K9AY?
Is there a significant gain (better S/N!) compared to a
single vertical?
Do you have even more space in the garden to get some more
spacing than 0.05 Lambda? :-)
Yesterday i have been at my parents QTH,
now my car is full of stuff, wires, coils, ferrite cores, heavy ground rods, a
sledge hammer, cord, batteries, RG58, adapters........
I guess i will also
need about 1 mH to resonate the small RX antenna to MF. This will be the first
test. I willl use an air coil and do some TX tests on that small RX antenna,
just to check that it is accurately resonated and matched to 50 Ohm.
I will
go to the garden now and play until late afternoon. Maybe you will see a weak
signal on MF :-)
