You know, a few weeks back i've tested the readability of a signal at
-6 dB and -16 dB. -6 dB was fine for a normal speed (100 Bpm) CW QSO.
-16 dB was barely audible, not fine for a QSO, maybe a call can be
copied when repeated a few times. So i think that -12 dB should be fine
for a QSO at 60 Bpm and some concentration... But it was just a short
moment within 4 hours. Not sure if someone want to call CQ for such a
long time to make a "599tu" QSO then :-)
73, Stefan
PS: Could someone provide more statistical overview of last nights
results?

Hi Stefan,
-14 dB !!!
Virtually
with 10 dB extra power
you would get an
audible CW signal...at 9000 Km WOW.
