Hello Markus,

also a clear trace with 30 mHz in the Oberpfalz:  S/(S+N) = 5 dB at a signal level of -148,6 dBm. RX Perseus at DL0AO (JN59VK53NK), ANT Beverage 200 m to South America - on VLF certainly a large lossy earthloop. The enclosed waterfall is evidentiary but rather short - I didn´t want to block our RX stn longer.

73 and good dreams,

Thank you Stefan! Yes indeed, I'm glad to see a solid trace on your EW tree-antenna. Having a sensitive grabber within reach is rather motivating.

Attached is a pic of the coil preparation, a temporary "ugly construction" with some chunks of ferrite inside. In the meantime the current has dropped to ~ 0.15 A due to self-heating of the thin wire but it seems to be stable now.

Best 73,

Hello Markus,

It looks like you are there!! Even in 424 uHz. Very good, my congrats! You are the second station transmitting on 58 km at all!
EbNaut should be no problem there, good luck.

73, Stefan

I've managed to tune to 5.17 kHz and am sending a straight carrier since 11:18 UT. Due to the high coil resistance the antenna current is only 0.18 A (as opposed to 0.4 A on 8.27 kHz, thus 11 dB less ERP). I wonder if the signal may show up in Heidelberg...

Best 73,
Markus
