Hi Stefan :-))))
soon Paul will ask for a bandplan: it is becoming so crowded there!
sms from both sides of the ponds hihi
I fear to think what people who live in the last floor
of my building if they had to hear my coil singing nighttime ;-)
Be careful Stefan, going dow before or later Captain Nemo will knock at
your door ;-)

Hi Marco, Chris,
Greetings from the lower end of the spectrum. It is quite silent down
here, no contests, no band plans, not even complaints about key
clicks!!!! (so relaxing), no pile ups, just the nature is speaking to
me
from time to time. And ZEVS is whispering but i can't hear it so far.
I'm envious, up on the microwaves with just a few km of wavelength you
have so much bandwidth, you can tune down by 1 kHz and more, whereas i
would crash into the DC wall when attempting to try that. Also your
coils are so small, the antenna current so high, the voltages so low,
the ERP so high, and there are so many people daily.
However my phase is so stable down here and so reproducable :-) So i
can
can talk very slowly or say just one word per day. And i'm diving
below
the switch mode power supply QRM and inbetween the mains hum :-)
It all has its pros and cons. Anyway we have a nice hobby on the real
low frequencies.
I'll visit you again in the near future on 137 kHz. Maybe we can try
something like JT9 or QRSS?
73, Stefan
