Hi Roger,

That's what i'm trying right now. But the frequency is not really stable, you know. So there is an optimum bandwidth. At 3.8 mHz it looks to blurry.
Attached is a spectrogram in 15 mHz, covering 1 hour. It looks not much more convincing :-)
My E field antenna still lacks of sensitivity in the ELF/SLF range but i already have plans to improve it in the near future.

For the Schumann resonances it is about the same. Something between 20...200 mHz FFT BW should be the optimum.

Yes, I can see it faintly.It would be good to look at 60Hz in a much narrower bandwidth?

Hi SLF friends,

Take a look at
http://www.iup.uni-heidelberg.de/schaefer_vlf/DK7FC_VLF_Grabber2.html
There, on the 4th image from the top you can see a faint but
concentrated trace at 60 Hz. This should be the 60 Hz grid frequency as
used in NA and SA. It has been detected in a smaller bandwidth in the
past, but from this location on the tree, it is the first time that i
see it in 45 mHz FFT bin width.
The QRN is very low these days, in that range!

PS: At 16 2/3 Hz you can see the German railway power grid changing its
colour, depending on where trains are currently driving.
