Hi,

I reached OH8HTG WSPR, Â 1414, Â km with my earth electrode antenna! TX is M1GEO project, DDS RN3AUS, electrodes are 20 meters apart. Antenna is directly connected to 50 ohm tx filter with serial 2,2 nF capacitor. SWR is about 1,1 to 1.4 according to weather. Direction of the antenna is NE, 50 deg.

So far my WSPR was received in DL, OK, OE corner by DH5RAE,  DJ0ABR and  DC1RJJ, about 650 km far. Also closer by SP2OVY and SQ5KLN.

Who can help me estimate EIRP power? I declare now in WSPR beacon 5 mW.
