Re: LF: VO1NA - Opera32 detections

[Rob Renoud <k3rwr@md.metrocast.net>]

Hi Joe and Markus,

It would be fun putting a pair of EbNaut beacons on 2200M from North America later this week if there are no objections.  If you use 137477, Joe, I’ll be glad to run on 137490.

My TX is a Hafler P3000 at 250 watts to a top loaded vertical (14m vertical, 141m top loading) with a HP3325 driver employing phase modulation.

73,

Hi Joe,

thanks for your fine signals, both on the "77"ies on LF, as well as perfectly persistent on VLF 8270.0075 Hz.

No objections from this end toward EbNaut in the opds band. For us it's comfortable to reuse an already running SpecLab instance with data Export. If you decide for a relatively short message and simple coding, my grabber PC is capable of running an autodecoder instance. Spot on 137500 is not good as there are carriers from Russian Loran (all multiples of 6.25 Hz), and it can also be prone to intermodulation from 60 + 77.5 kHz time signals. Better stick to your 137477 "home" QRG, or perhaps go to one of the unofficial EbNaut gathering spots, e.g. 137490.

Best 73,
Markus (DF6NM)

Thanks Bernd and Stefan.

Thanks also to Markus for his OPDS work and web site.

The TX is a 50W class E feeding the 100x20m rotated L. The Decca PA is
taking some time off, following more charred wood and fused halyards...
quite alarming!

An XOR BPSK modulator module is QRV for some EbNaut.  Is there any
objection to using 137.5 kHz to send an EbNaut message later this
week?
