Re: LF: 1476 kHz AM

[Laurence KL7 L <hellozerohellozero@hotmail.com>]

Hi Makus - Its refd to GPS so pretty close...  I put on the HP3336B and checked against two gps disciplined 10MHz refs and both came up the same.  The LF carrier one is quite a "noisy" swing - so maybe we are looking at a different one - I should have switched beams to the West to see if it came up but was running out of darkness... 😊

ps running a JT9-2 slooow Rik OR7T rx instance on 475kHz and all well - its open with about 6 instances of WSJTX and plays well here.

cheers

Thanks Laurence - another long shot ;-) How accurate is your frequency readout? Seems like MW broadcasters are hardly ever exactly on frequency.

The "thermostat swinger" came in up about 1 Hz low in the evening

and now appears to have settled to a more irregular pattern between 0 and + 0.4 Hz above nominal. A local screenshot with hourly update is here:
