Good idea. When do you want to do that? Is the equipment available already?
We could make a sked at night :-)
No, i have to order an audio injector card, and find a way to reliably
connect to the internet (whis is not easy in this location).
This is a project for vacation.
Pity that so few OMs are interested. The signal is 100x stronger than from my
E field antenna...
Yes, pity. Maybe you could run some tests at 8270Hz, so that more people
could receive it.
More stations would be interesting, because i think that the ground dipole
pattern is not what you would expect (the null might not be where it is in
a dipole, which would be absurd btw):
During your previous tests on 8270Hz i had a very good signal compared to
Paul, even though the dipole location should favor Paul. Looking from your
location Paul and i am almost 90 degrees apart, and the distance is
similar.
During our tests in Gdynia we also wanted to orient the antenna to favor
Paul, but it turned out that it was rotated 90 degrees. The null should be
in Paul's direction, and maximum signal in my direction, but Paul received
the signal and i didn't at 1/3 of the distance (of course Paul has a great
rx setup, but maybe this is not the only factor).
More rx stations could give a better idea how the antenna pattern looks
like.
PS: My E field is coming from the forest too. But you need to be on the top
of a tree or you need much C (wire) in a region with low tree-density.
Not doable unless i put a 20m antenna tower there (which i won't). And
there is no region with low tree density.
