Hi Mike,

I was checking the QRG -- thought I may have been on an OP QRG when
nobody replied!  That was probably the carrier. Thanks for the signal
report.  It seems conditions were not the best last night.  At least
the QRSS gave some gratification.

Joe,

Your signals were visible on my QRSS3 screen most of the time, but
only just detectable by ear with the selectivity very tight. I heard
the occasional letter, but nothing I could make sense of. I did see
what appeared to be an unmodulated carrier starting at 0056 and
ending at 0058UTC - was that you testing your QRSS100 before the
official end of the CW?

I missed your announcement of QRSS100 tests and instead tried
detecting VE7SL with a QRSS60 screen, but nothing seen. The VE7BDQ
transmission was a non-starter because of the very strong NDB carrier
on the same frequency.

An interesting test, nevertheless.

Hi Wolf,

Thanks for taking a listen.

I do not think you are alone in having trouble hearing the sigs.
As of 2317 I had 2 calls from local stations.  Since then,
just QRN on 80 and usb squeaks on 40m.

I will try for some QRSS100 at 0130 when the event is over.
Hope this is not too late for you.

Not a trace in the spectrogram on 477.7 kHz here yet ... but that
would have been very optimistic, considering the QRN.

Only "RP" (beacon) happily beeping away .

A minute-long continuous carrier later at night may have the chance
to get through and give us an idea about the signal level... and how
many dBs are missing for audible copy ;-)

Sorry Christian, that should have read 'In 4 minutes'.
The beacon has been on since 2130 and I've been listening
on 80 and 40 metres.

Merci Andy and all who reported.
Happy to hear that the sigs could actually be heard. We will have
to try for a 2 way in winter.

Will try some CW tonight on 477.7 kHz in preparation of
tomorrow night's event. Reports welcomed.

You see that this morning, 16 dB is great, and 569 by
ears. I was using my large K9AY as usual, without preamplifier
and the IC7200 with the common 50 Hz DSP filter. In center of my
large city, the local QRN is moderate on LF but high on MF..

About your CW test TM with the two other stations, 478.477 is a
good QRG. But for the x-band QSO, I am sorry : 3562 is in the
QRP segment, and 7062 is in the LSB segment. So Ill
cannot answer you. Sure your signal be audible on MF CW, as
usual here around 0300 TU.

Bet 73 and luck.

Andy F6CNI.

Thank-you Markus. The TX was running about 4 amps to the 100m
wire. Your summer antenna, rx and opds are working very well
indeed.

Has my oscillator drifted down a bit? The DDS is set for
137.477.

Cheers
Joe

Hi Joe,

of course we're watching! Think that I actually caught each of
your Op transmissions between midnight and 7:33 UT.
Average-power SNR's were in the minus fourties; might have
really been a bit better but I'm still on the low and noisy
"summer" RX antenna.

Best 73,
Markus (DF6NM)

Hi Graham,

Thanks for this and also the report from SV8RV. I was wondering
if anyone was listening to my opera... Anyway, I'm still
tinkering with the dds/ttl/cmos stuff and have a carrier on
478.477 which hopefully will be singing on the air after the CW
event tomorrow (TX 477.7 RX 3562 7062 starting 2130 utc).

The 2200m Opera is about to begin soon (2045 UTC).

Joe
