Yesterday I raised the far end of the low RL in an effort to get the
voltage and inductance down and the ERP up, but instead managed only to
fry a coil. I'll keep the carrier on and think about the next steps such
as using phase feedback and building better coils. In the mean time I'm
grateful for the reports and discussion. There are many interesting
things to try with SL and lexan and copper and halyards on a tower.
Paul mentioned 2.4 and 1.6 electrons on the E probe last spring.
Are these numbers per photon?

Yes Stefan I agree, the small peaks are no more than a vague indication and not
yet near a proof of reception. Hope they are anyway encouraging.
Joe are you now using the higher antenna, or perhaps both in parallel?
Employing phase feedback from a local E-field probe will make the transmitted
phase repeatable, even with modifications to the antenna or matching circuit.
I'm afraid 16K25 may be too hard for my computer.

PS: What is the quantum efficiency of Paul's antenna, how many photons are
needed to drive one electron?

Hm, we need evidence for claiming such distances i find. From my spectrogram i
can see no clear trace on the exact frequency.
I'm running another spectrogram in the background, not displayed on the grabber
but now in the attachment. It runs at 24 uHz. But even there i can see no clear
trace.
I thought about stacking carrier transmissions and try to get EbNaut '*'
messages in 16K25A or so, but not yet tried...
When the phase changes between the different days it gets difficult...
But i think decoding a 5 character message is certainly realistic in 3...6
days, if the phase is stable...

Joe, VLF,
it looks like VO1NA might have made it into Germany.
The DL0AO earth-antenna in Amberg shows small peaks both in 31.4 and 9.3 uHz
(attached. Note that the 30 hours of the narrower FFT have only been partially
filled last night). Also the 47 uHz spectrogram from Stefan's tree in
Heidelberg may have picked up some energy on 8720.0075 Hz.

Hi VLF,
There was a phase glitch at 1700-1800 ut today. It was a nice day for
aerial work and so hopefully the ERP has improved a bit on 8.2700075 kHz.
It is hoped to launch a few hundred billion VLF photons farther
east for Stefan and Markus in particular.
