Hello Roman,
The distance between RX and TX is 55.6 km in all these experiments, also
on 2970/2470/1970 Hz. The report for 1570 Hz (the 191 km band) will
follow today.
Unfortunately this loop has its minimum pointing to Russia and the ERP
is very low so it is most unlikely to receive a signal from this antenna.
But the ongoing transmissions on 17.4701 kHz could be received
relatively easily in 3000 km distance.
73, GD DX,
Stefan

GA Genosse Funkamateur Stefan!
Vielen dank!
MNY TNX for info!
Tell me pse, whats QRB on your DFCW-90 experiment and on 2970|1970 Hz?
Best DX in your experiments!
All russian LF looking to your experiments! -)
73!

Hello Genosse Roman,
Yes, i used the ground loop also on 2970 Hz (and on 2470 Hz and 1970
Hz). On sunday i also run a 2 hour long carrier on 1570 Hz starting
08:08 UTC. The post-processing is running. I will report later. Next i
will try 970 Hz but also 137 kHz!

Congrats Stefan!
Impressed by your DFCW TX a\t 8 kHz.
Do you use a ground ant at 2970 also too?

Here is a spectrogram showing the 2970 Hz signal in 3.8 mHz as received
on the tree. The carrier reached an S/N of 27.57 dB in 166.7 uHz, -10.22
dB in 1Hz, -44.20 dB in 2.5kHz

Hi Markus and Paul,
Thanks for the efforts to watch out for the signal. I'm surprised that
the signal appears at Bielefeld since the 900m ground loop antenna in
JN39WI does not really point there, it rather points directly to Paul.
No trace in Todmorden? The gain of the loop is on your side! :-)
Markus, can you decode a '*' message from the exportet FFT data? 8 dB
in 167 uHz could be fine.
It was an interesting test of the new equipment. After the 100 minutes
at 265 W power consumption from the battery, the display still shows
70 % rest capacity for the next experiment which will follow soon. The
H bridge PA stays cool during the transmission. The PA can work from
30 Hz to 9 kHz. I could add another 3 dB by running more power. Since
i have to 'wait' during the transmission i can't run a 24 hour
transmission :-) It will always be less than 2 hours but i can run
more power so we can search for the signal in a higher bandwidth which
could be an advantage.
73, Stefan

After cycling through some combinations of filter and
blanker settings, Bielefeld (DL4YHF) is now showing

About 3.8 sigma, needs another couple of dB.
