Hi Eric.
Fine.
So i will stay silent and stay for RX tonite as soon as the sun goes
down on your side. The highest probability between us seems to be
arround 1:30...3:00 UTC these days. The path can be open just
for 20 minutes. So it may be better to use a high duty cycle, like 50%
during that time. Stations from the UK or PA are in a preferred
location of course. Maybe many of them will take part in the night :-)
600W sounds suitable :-)
73, GL,

WG2XJM was
running about 300-350 transmitter output; antenna about 10-12% eff.
I'll try increasing power tonight. Can go up to 1kW, but while running
WSPR2 prefer to top out at 550-600W (amp = modified SB-1000 linear).
Switching mode amp would be more suitable...
Location: EN91, just south of Erie PA and 30 mi. from OH state line.

What about Bob or you, are there any stronger TX-stations active? I
would like to check my new RX with the RX-loop beaming into your
direction. Relative to my city RX-location the indicated SNR seems to
be at least 6 dB higher!
