Hello Graham, Group

I'm using audio from OPERA 1.4.5 to modulate my USB exciter setted to dial 136.000 kHz . So QRG seems ok. I got,  during last night, three decodes from SV8RV and many others from Markus DF6NM in OPDS32. Many thanks to these receiving stations.

Tx power out  is 50 W and antenna is very small: so these results are more than expected for this season.

I will stop activities for a week. Planned an holiday week with family in PA, OR. I will reactivate the trasmitter at the end of August.

73 and good holidays to all.

Domenico, iz7slz

Ok Domenico 

 

I don't  see  any  decodes  from  sv8rv-1   , with  coverage to  LA , would  of expected sv8  no problem ?

 

assume  qrg  is ok ?  latest  Opera   uses  1500  Hz audio for  all  bands  , that  makes  137.500   +/-   carrier ,  how are  you  keying  the  tx  ?

Yes Graham,

thanks for observing my spots.

from the end of July i'm QRV on 2200m with a small transmitter.

Antenna is  inverted-L. Vertical radiator is 8 meter long surrounded  by a "cage" of 6 wires all connected in parallel.

This fat antenna, requires a coil of about 2.5 mH.

So far i got some wspr-15 spots from SV,D,LA e since yesterday i'm trying OPERA with the hope  to be received at least from SV.

73 to all  group
