LF: 136kHz DX

["Mike Dennison" <mike.dennison@ntlworld.com>]

DX conditions on the 136kHz band have been good recently. 

Last night K3RWR's WSPR was received here six times between 0515 and 
0615 and again at 0738. 

A couple of days ago my daytime Opera32 transmissions were reported 
just after midday by EB8ARZ (Canaries, ~3000km) who appears to have 
an excellent receive set-up. A few nights earlier he reported my 0.4W 
ERP overnight signal peaking at -24dB S/N, some 20dB below Opera's 
reception threshold, ie anyone with an ERP of just 5mW would have got 
through easily.

I am active from time to time during each day and every evening, and 
shall continue overnight transmissions whenever the weather is calm 
and dry. 

Mike, G3XDV
