Hi Stefan !
no, i was just using the master/slave scheme from LORAN systems as an
analogy. As everybody on this reflector is familiar with it ;-)
I guess the "master station " should be selected from a view of
practicality. It needs a somewhat geographically centered position in EU
plus some technical advancedness.
Looks to me as if u are in the bowl :-)
And yes, the northamericanos are doing this activity thing quite nicely,
an european counterpart event would be a timely thing i guess.
The kite antenna is intriguing but it is not a normal installation and
requires lots of time and weather cooperation. I´d reserve that for TA
attempts. Just too much effort for a regular thing to happen.
The signals are so loud in EU on MF, even verticals of 10m height only
produce enormous signals. I guess a wide audience can play that game.
On the other hand . TGIF !!!!

Hi Wolf,
No no, i don't want to be a master station. And others are no slaves
at all. My signal may be one of the stronger ones :-) but this does
not rise me in a higher position.
Yes it would be interesting to see what is possible here in EU, an
activity day like the Canadians do :-) Also it would help to announce
it "officially", i.e. in the local radio magazines! But then this
requires some planning :-)
But it would be nice to do something with a kite again, when thinking
about events :-)

Hi Stefan !
well, maybe it would be nice if You can coin an idea about a special
activity hour on MF per week. It would be like in them ol` days when
coastal radio stns checked into a circuit.
Just for the fun of it.
This evening Dk1IS, IK2DED,IK2CLB all with S9+ signals whooping on
r-CW. No JT or WSPR needed by them ( no pun intended )
You could do the master station and call up "the slaves". Should be
an interesting picture to see how far European stations could hear
each other and what area can be covered.
