Hi MF
For a first night there is a nice list of reporting stations. Specially newcomers, which have been sourprised by the signal and then start
asking "how". So, getting interested in the low bands
Have been monitoring my signal over Europe using different Perseus SDRs. Thank you Roelof ! ;-)
The most outstanding is Mauritz, SM2BYC in Kukkolaforsen. North Sweden in the border with Finland and about 3400Km from here
After 23z the CW signal was loud and clear when QSB was rising. He is using a 2m long vertical whip 5m from the ground
70m buried line appart from the house and Mini Circuits PGA-103+
Observing SDRs have noticed that there is some QRM at 474.400 in the north sea and Scandinavia. So have QSY to 474.600
Not yet at reach of the modulated upper band of BIA but a bit closer
Second turn tonight
Hi MF
Following this tradition initiated by Stefan. A CW beacon (yes CW, the REAL thing)
will be on air at 474.400 from about 20 to 24 utc, starting tonight
Reporting stations will be added to the message, as usual
As you know. The aim is to provide a signal for hams which just by chance discover the band
even with suboptimal Rx
