Hi all,

It is a fine day here today in Wellington, so there is little doubt that we
will have ZL6QH running on LF from this afternoon.  The DFCW emission will
use 137.7896/137.7900 kHz, with 120 second dot length, sending QQQQ.... from
earlier than 0700 UTC till after 1700 UTC (equivalent to Saturday night New
Zealand time, overnight and with some light periods evening and morning as
well).

If LF propagation is suitable with Steve VE7SL (he has twice before received
ZL6QH on LF) , then ZL6QH will decrease the dot length to 20 seconds or so
to attempt a cross-band contact, LF to HF.  This attempt could occur over
the time frame of 1400 - 1530 UTC, in the pre-dawn period for VE7.  This
happens to be in the pre-pre-dawn period for ZL6QH and may be conducive to
watching eyelids rather than S meters, however if that happens it will
explain the change of signal format for other DX listeners, during that
period.  All other times ZL6QH will stick to 120 second dot length
transmission.

73, Bob ZL2CA

Is Wolfgang also transmitting QRSS on HF?

Thinking about the local mains distribution, I wonder how easy it would be
for an evildoer to go in for (non)wire tapping?

Hi All
Email and other digital communications plagued with various
contamination, satellite systems although
  using  FDM and TDM modulation the baseband data is primarily digital.
It is just a matter of time before the whole DIGITAL system grinds all
of modern communications to a halt.
The remedy is back to analogue and the man with a backpack tx/rx using
hand sent CW will win in the end.
Although digital systems do have advantages of flexibility over
analogue, their weakness is also  digital destruction. Analogue is not a
structured system and therefore less vunerable to tampering.
History does repeat it self and the wheel often turns full circle. You
achieve something on one hand and lose it on the other. Like the
vunerability of solid state devices, a lightening strike and all is
lost.
Transistors and chip devices zapped.
The valve of yesteryears will live on and is virtually imune to such
destruction.
Digital systems becomming more  sophisticated but so are the viruses to
neutralize the advances and in the end the virus could win. What sort of
progess is this ??

Dear LF Group,

Transmitted QRSS beacon sigs on 72.4018kHz again last night (29th/30th Nov) 
from about 2330 until 0610. Won't be QRV tonight, because I will be 
preparing to try and receive ZL6QH' s signals (and VA3LK if he is still 
transmitting) - good luck to all involved.

Cheers, Jim Moritz

I have just uploaded Spectran V1 build 107.
It has no new functions, but rather a couple of bug fixes,
together with some modifications to make it to try harder
to support some difficult sound cards.

The two bugs corrected were :

- When specifying an offset frequency in the Spectran Controls
   panel, the dB level of the peak in the spectrum pane was
   computed incorrectly.  Fixed.

- Again, when specifying an offset frequency, some too big
   values, or malformed values, could cause the program
   to crash.   Fixed.

Please download this version, and trash the previous, tnx.
Thanks to Claudio IK2PII and Johan Bodin SM6LKM
for spotting the bugs.

Hi LF-ers...

	During the weekend 15-16.12.2001 I'll be in my "two towers" QTH and
I'll try my first T/A test on 136kHz. During the daytime I'll be on CW and
maybe QRSS3 (137.700kHz) too.

T/A frequncies will be:

135.963kHz QRSS10
and
135.922kHz QRSS30/60/120

QSX 14065kHz or 3577kHz.

Skeds are welcome.

More informations later...

73 and best regards de Rich OM2TW

Larry's virus mail was instantly spotted and deleted, like all the others I have
received from various sources in the past few days - around 2-3 each time I download.
It really is nasty work.

Tip for Outlook Express (and Outlook) - enable showing of file size in your inbox
(View/columns and tick the size box).  Now the virus sticks out like a sore thumb, it
is 40k in size.  Just right click and delete, DO NOT open it at all.  Even with the
MS patch installed I am not convinced it is safe.

Note also that the email address of the sender is prefixed by an underscore _ so that
dsergeant@btinternet.com appears as _dsergeant@btinternet.com.  Possibly one could
set up a filter using this.

Apparantly this virus is being stopped in the commercial world by their firewalls,
most appear to be coming from domestic users.

Laurie,

I published the times in UTC.  The timing is for the UK sunrise on Sat 1
December, and the sunset.  Most of the western European area only has the
sunset phase, on Saturday 1 December.  By then, it is breakfast time for me
at Quartz Hill, on Sunday morning local time!

73, Bob ZL2CA

Not a problem Larry
I very nearly opened it as
this one does give a txt that
kinda made sense. Checked to
see if it was off the list or direct
and as a direct note realized something
was not proper. Not much use
for a pif file either  Hi

> Hi Larry, I hate to be the harbinger of what could be bad news.

Don't be so dammed polite!  This is a hell of a mess.  For those who need
help with this go to the following.....

http://www.microsoft.com/technet/security/bulletin/MS01-020.asp for a
patch
for IE5.

I run Microsoft stuff because my partner requests that I do so for
business
reasons.  We will now revisit this decision.  I am grateful, I unplugged
the
LAN before I signed on, standard procedure, so it only got this one
machine.

To all I have sent bad things to I apologize.  I got the stuff from ZL,
obviously not sent intentionally, and I sincerely regret getting caught.

Dave Sargent, G3YMC thank you for being ready for it with your earlier

Hi dear All

The QRPpp beacon is now on the air again with improved stability.
Frequency is derived from the OCXO in my GPS disciplined freq.
standard but the GPS antenna is down at the moment so the absolute
freq. is unknown... However, the beacon shouldn't drift very much now.

Frequency: 3593 kHz
Modulation: QRSS3

The power is temporarily QROed up to 10mW output. Operators with
a decent degree of CW skill, and tall towers, should have no problem
copying the beacon signal by ear at 1000km distance, at least... :-)

What does the beacon say?

Ethernet Over Mains
29 November 2001

"A new base for a Welsh company which is developing technology
likely to revolutionise communications in the home and in the
small firms sector is being officially opened this week at
Imperial Park, Newport.

LANergy Ltd. intends to double its existing workforce of some 13
scientists as it begins production of hardware and software,
which will allow small and medium sized firms and private homes
easy access to the astonishing potential offered by broadband
communications.

The company was created earlier this year with the backing of a
£1.35 million investment syndicate which was led by Finance
Wales' Innovation Fund and which included Welsh technology
entrepreneur Terry Matthews together with Jon Moulton of Alchemy
Partners and venture capital company 'Wales Fund Managers'

Essentially, LANergy's pioneering technology removes the need to
wire every device in the home or office into a new network to use
high speed, broadband voice, video and data.

The cost of doing has so far deterred most SME's from installing
new networking links and enjoying the huge business benefits of
broadband communications.

But LANergy's technology will use existing electrical circuits to
allow homes and business to connect personal computers, TVs,
telephones and other devices without the need to install any new
wiring.

It will also mean that many more people in future will find it
easier to work from home

LANergy's new headquarters at Imperial Park was jointly declared
opened today by the company's newly appointed Chairman David Dey,
formerly Chairman of British Telecom and of Energis, and by
Finance Wales' Chief Executive Colin Mitten.

Said David Dey: " We have some tremendously exciting technology
which is on the verge of coming to market. Looking forward, we
plan to grow the company and become a significant,
technology-based employer in the Newport region. These are very
exciting times for LANergy."

Hi all,
someone was asking about dsp-filtering by soundcard and phone-output. There is an excellent freeware available:

http://www.qsl.net/mmhamsoft/index.html

(makoto mori, JE3HHT) 

for example:

smallest filter is 64 Hz BW without any echoeffects
-3dB/ -60dB = 1:5; midfreq. is adjustable from 100 to 3 kHz

This is the essential question.  Like Jim, I still have some concerns that 
the effect could be from "sensory crosstalk," although there have been 
recordings made of what are said to be sounds resulting from grass, pine 
needles, etc., responding to electric fields.

Now, I don't doubt that people are hearing what they report.  But I'd be more 
of a believer in the electrophonic explanation if I could find experimental 
confirmation that the purported VLF waves themselves are actually being 
generated.

There is some reason to believe the EMP from a nearby lightning flash is, in 
fact, perceived as sound by direct reception within the human nervous system. 
 In most such cases, though, the click or chirp is swamped by the acoustic 
clicks, crackles and snaps taking place in the hearer's immediate vicinity.  
A pretty substantial field is required to do this; it isn't perceived at more 
than a few score meters from the strike, if I remember correctly.

The option to omit redundant gaps is one of the changes. 
Another change if the possibility to drive the TX via the printer port.
This might be usefull for those wanting to use an older notbook where the
(only) serial port is occupied by the mouse.
Using (or better said abusing) the printer port under windows is not an
easy task, but thanks to some help from Alberto and Wolf I got it working ... 
Before I release the new version I would prefer to have the printer port
option tested, so I am looking for some 'victims'. If you want to help and
test the printer port option on your PC please give me a short notice
(direct - not via the reflector), I will send you a beta version of QRS 3.10.

Hi All,
Rik has produced a modified QRS  DFCW program which omits
the gaps when there is a frequency change.This should enable a small
increase in message speed and I should like to try it out.
I will be testing this afternoon and will run the beacon tonight
from about 22.30 utc. The frequency will be 72,401.2/3 ie 0.1Hz shift. Best
display is with ARGO set to 90sec. dots but use 120 sec. for better S/N.
All reports welcome.   73s Laurie.

Dear LF Group,

Some sort of crosstalk between auditory and visual centres in the brain? I 
know some people experience sensations of colour when hearing certain 
sounds, and other senses can get cross-connected too. I suppose the way to 
tell would be to shut you eyes and see if the sound went away.

...If there was sufficient field strength to produce sound by the mechanism 
hypothesized to explain the phenomenon, these electrophonic meteors should 
have produced very strong noise bursts on whistler receivers...

If such an effect were caused by VLF somehow being perceived, or for other 
reasons, would you not notice similar sounds occurring when there was 
lightning near by?

Cheers, Jim Moritz

I'm glad this subject has cropped up, even if off topic of LF.   Two years
ago, when the Leonids shower was going to be particularly good in the UK,
with clear skies, I went out meteor spotting in the early hours of the
morning to a local hilltop site in the dark countryside.    There was one
particularly large meteor that flashed right across the sky - a very
spectacular streak of green/blue light with a visible aftertrace that lasted
nearly 15 minutes.  I was very convinced I heard it "swoosh" by at the time,
but being a level headed skeptical sort of person, knew it wasn't possible
to have heard the actual meteor entry itself.  I put the apparant sound down
to phychological effects (quiet, lonely environment, cold, late at night etc
etc.)

Now it appears that others have heard similar sounds, and more to the point
come up with a  reasonable explanation, I presumably did actually hear
something then.

Now the question remains, what is the mechanism that turns low frequency RF
fields into audible sounds ?  And is the energy contained in a larger meteor
flash enough to produce sound at 100km  distance considering that the EM
field to sound conversion efficiency cannot be particularly high ?

I have never heard meteors as they flash by, but one cold, crisp night in
the early 1960s the Fire Brigade (complete with rotating blue lights) called
at the farm next door.  I went outside to see what was happening. There were
no streetlights in the village, no moon and no fire, so the only strong
light came from the fire appliances. Every time one of the lights pointed in
my direction there was a clicking sound. I wonder if this is a related
phenomenon?

Hi All, 
I listened/watched with Spectran on 15kHz, for the IMAGE Radio Plasma Imager satellite on 21/24/27th, but nothing seen at all. 

Thanks to Peter G8AFN, I eventually tracked down a more informative web page at: 
http://image.gsfc.nasa.gov/campaign/whistler_campaign.html. 

It appears that the satellite is transmitting with an average power of 30.8 watts in order to measure the
plasma resonance frequencies characteristic of the Earth's magnetophere (3 kHz to 3 MHz). 
The RPI instrument consists of an electronics enclosure, four 250 m wire antennae with 
deployers (including switches and couplers), and a z-axis boom canister containing two 
10 m lattice boom antennae and two preamplifiers. 

The mean period is about 854 minutes, so the mean radius of the orbit is 18,566 miles (29879 km) with an apogee at about 8 Earth Radii and the perigee over the southern hemisphere polar. When IMAGE is near perigee, either inside the plasmasphere or at low altitudes, some of the signals launched between 3 kHz and about 500 kHz may propagate in the whistler mode. An outstanding problem to be investigated under these conditions concerns whistler-mode propagation from an in situ source to the ground. It is not expected that detection of RPI signals on the ground will be a common occurrence, and the conditions under which such detection may occur will be of great scientific interest. 

On that web page a table is given showing where and when to listen for it. This table seems to give different longitudes to those from the Locator page, so I am a little puzzled. However it gives more precise times for the start of the VLF transmissions. For the 27th of November it gave turn-on time as 20.16 and longitude as 359.36, and one location as England. 

In fact on the 27th I listened from 19.30 till 20.47, which was when the transmission was scheduled to end, and despite using longer and longer integration times, saw absolutely nothing. Apparently the radio path was then 1.45 radii, so nearly 6000 miles above my head. Presumably 30 watts is not enough for that distance. 

There is one more opportunity for those of us in Europe : On the 30th November starting at 19.26 UT, it should be over Italy. 

One useful thing that came out of this effort, was a better understanding of the latest version of Spectran, especially the Band pass filter and other filters, which seems to be absolutely excellent, not ringing until one gets down to just a few Hz. It is amazing how it makes it possible to hear signals, that with Argo one can only watch. 

73, John, G4CNN

Maybe a LDE (long delayed echo) signal?  See:

I figured Stewart may want to analyze the wav file so I uploaded it to:

www.qsl.net/w4dex/73.6kHzRTTY28nov01.wav

It's close 1 MB in size.

The RTTY signal I recorded a few days ago is now extremely strong in
North Carolina at 2300 UTC.  As Stewart told me the shift is 75 Hz.  I

This is one of the things we alerted people to on the home page at lwca.org 
before the Leonid shower.  If there was sufficient field strength to produce 
sound by the mechanism hypothesized to explain the phenomenon, these 
electrophonic meteors should have produced very strong noise bursts on 
whistler receivers.  Still no reports of such reception from this side of the 
pond, alas!  Anyone on the other side encounter anything like it?

AMRAD types of the LF persuasion might like to read up on HAARP's use
in generating sub-5 kHz ELF signals at:

http://w3.nrl.navy.mil/projects/haarp/elfhrp.html

Mmm, "interaction with the naturally occurring currents flowing at
auroral latitudes", Tesla would be proud. :-)

Apparently some folks heard meteors as they flashed by. The link is to a
NASA article which is light and yet technical. For the time impaired I
will sum up; The cause could be very low frequency radio generated by
turbulence in the ionized tail. The wave were strong enough to vibrate
nearby objects at audio frequencies.

I leave the R-75 internal preamps off, as they pick up some "birdies" within the

serious LF work. This was the setup that I used last week to copy G3AQC on 73

Hello Laurie,
    I sent you a message a couple of days ago on this subject. Your message
didn't make it trough the reflector, but you had copied  me too.
Please tell me if you have received my reply, and the test version of Spectran.
If not, I will resend.

Hi Martin,
maybe it is not exactly the page you are looking for but
on my pages, at http://www.qsl.net/in3otd/indcalc.html ,
you can find an interactive form for computing the inductance 
of a single-layer circular coil (I posted a mail about a month
ago about this).
There are also other pages, computing the inductance of a two-coil
variometer and the distributed capacitance of a coil using just 
two resonance measurements, among other things; please take a look
at http://www.qsl.net/in3otd/programs.html .
Hope this helps,

                    73 de Claudio, IN3OTD

I have tried to ask for help but the reflector does not like this !
Thanks Peter for the explanation.
So here goes again:
I  downloaded Spectran and tried to run the sound card set up
program.Unfortunately this attempt resulted in the gain being reduced so
much that I cannot now run Argo or any program which requires an external
sound input. I seem to remember this problem from some time back but all my
efforts to recover the situation have failed. So I am now quite "blind" and
would
appreciate any help with this problem. Thanks es 73s Laurie.

Haaaa... that explains my three failed attempts... thanks Peter.
So, here it comes my previous message :

----

I have been asked by some if the help file of Spectran were
available or when it would be.
While the true help file is not ready yet, waiting for Vittorio to
complete it, I wrote down some quick-and-dirty notes to
explain how to use the program.
If you need it, it can be downloaded from :
http://www.weaksignals.com/bin/specv1doc.zip

When you expand the ZIP file, you obtain spectran.doc,
a Word 2000 document (guaranteed virus-free :-)
Only three pages, but maybe enough to get started.

Dear LF Group,

I monitored VLF frequencies between 5 and 15kHz last night in an attempt to 
detect signals from the IMAGE satellite, but nothing was heard or seen that 
could have been it. The Alpha beacons were back on, (operators found some 
coins for the meter?) and clearly audible.

However, this morning I had the computer on for other purposes at around 
1000 this morning, and thought I would check to see if there was any 
difference between night and daytime reception on these frequencies. I was 
using Spectrum Lab's "software receiver" facility to convert the Alpha 
beacon just below 15kHz down to audio, when I heard a strong carrier tuning 
up on the frequency, followed by some minutes of tests and transmissions in 
some digital mode. I thought this might be an intermod or alias from higher 
frequencies at first, but was able to receive the same signal on my RA1792 
with tuned loop - this revealed that the signal was actually on 13.3kHz, 
the "audio image" response of the Spectrum lab receiver as I had it 
configured. A small piece of the spectrogram is attached, showing the 
carrier and a burst of the modulation. The bandwidth shown is about 280Hz, 
and the separation between spectral lines is about 25Hz. The weaker trace 
is the alpha beacon. I have not seen a data transmission this low in 
frequency before, and the strength was not far short of that from GBR, so 
must have been fairly local. The modulation looks a little like what CFH 
was testing at one time last winter. Any ideas?

Cheers, Jim Moritz

<DIV><STRONG>Dear OM,</STRONG></DIV>
<DIV>&nbsp;</DIV>
<DIV><STRONG>On second thought the simple method of measuring Q of a coil 
described by James Moritz can even be performed when the internal resistance of 
the signal generator is unknown. If you don't possess a signal generator you 
could&nbsp;even use your 136kHz or 73kHz transmitter, provided its output can be 
adjusted to a low value and the harmonic content of the output signal is 
low.</STRONG></DIV>
<DIV>&nbsp;</DIV>
<DIV><STRONG>First connect the coil in series with a variable capacitor to the 
signal generator, which is tuned to 137kHz . Read the output voltage of the 
generator with a&nbsp;voltmeter or oscilloscope. Carefully tune the 
circuit&nbsp;for series resonance where&nbsp;the voltage reaches a minimum. 
Record that value. Now replace coil and capacitor by&nbsp;a low value variable 
resistor.&nbsp;Adjust the resistor until the&nbsp;voltage has the 
same&nbsp;value as the&nbsp;one recorded before.&nbsp;Next measure the value of 
the variable resistor, for instance with a digital multimeter. The value so 
found is equal to the series resistance Rs of the coil.</STRONG></DIV>
<DIV><STRONG></STRONG>&nbsp;</DIV>
<DIV><STRONG>The&nbsp;inductance of the coil&nbsp;must be known. If not it must 
be measured. You could also measure the value of the variable capacitor that 
resonated the coil on 137kHz. Calculate the reactance of the coil: XL = 2 
*&nbsp;pi * f * L  (or of the capacitor: XC = 1/(2 * pi * f * C) with f = 
137kHz.&nbsp;</STRONG></DIV>
<DIV><STRONG></STRONG>&nbsp;</DIV>
<DIV><STRONG>Now find Q = XL/Rs or XC/Rs.</STRONG></DIV>
<DIV><STRONG></STRONG>&nbsp;</DIV>
<DIV><STRONG>This substitution method has another advantage, apart from the fact 
there is no need to know the internal resistance of the generator. The voltmeter 
or oscilloscope is only used as an <EM>indicator </EM>to set the voltage with 
the variable resistor to the same value as&nbsp;the one&nbsp;with the coil + 
capacitor at resonance. So there is no need for calibration, good linearity or a 
high resistance. Even a simple diode, followed by a multimeter could&nbsp;do the 
job, provided the voltages to be indicated are sufficiently large to provide a 
reliable indication using&nbsp;that simple arrangement.

In the past three days I have sent twice a message to this
reflector regarding the help file of Spectran, but I haven't
seen it passing through. What's happening with the reflector ?
Anybody other noticed problems ? Or is it just my mail
server ? Let's see if this message makes it.

The charm of the M0MBU method is that the only critical part is a signal
generator with a well defined internal resistance; the actual value of that
resistance could be 50, 75 or whatever ohms, as long as it is known.

If you are not sure about the source resistance you could insert a resistive
pad of, say, 20dB or so to obtain a well defined value.
Another nice feature of Jim's method is that loading of the circuit by the
voltmeter hardly plays a role as it is in parallel with some tens of ohms at
the most.

Q is rather dependent on frequency so a measurement at a frequency different
from 137kHz may not be meaningful.

A new virus W95/Badtrans.B@mm (see
http://www.f-prot.com/f-prot/virusinfo/badtrb.html), appears to be spreading fast.  I
have just received a copy from I believe a reflector subscriber.  Point to note is
that it was only detected last Saturday, and updated signature files came out on
Sunday - AFTER several of my colleagues had already
received (and spread) copies.  It looks like a losing battle against these virus
people.

Also this virus will run even if you open the mail or preview it in the preview
pane - see
http://www.microsoft.com/technet/security/bulletin/MS01-020.asp for a patch for IE5.

Take care.

LF conditions must have been excellent the night I heard the Rugby
signal so well.  I haven't had good audiable copy since.  Tonight there
is a lot of QRN and I don't hear Rugby at all but Spectran pickes it out
very well.  A screen shot can be seen at:

Very interesting indeed. Your method is quite a standard method of making
level measurements if the meter on the receiver is not accurate and I can
see no fault in it.

You need some S/W that can record signal level ( I think some has already
been suggested) so that it can be left unattended once the attenuation level
had been established.
I have heard that CFH may also be on, or near, 73.3kHz. Are you able to
confirm that it is really Rugby that you are hearing? I guess that with your
directional loop antenna you will have that question already resolved.
Once you have some data it can be compared with Alan's propagation info to
see if anything of interest emerges.

Your three Q measurements indicate that your measurement techniques are
sound - unlike mine!
It occurs to me that I could use my HP vector impedance meter to measure Q
using the series resonant method. Unfortunately it only goes down to 500kHz
so cannot measure Q at the operating frequency. If I did the measurement at
a higher frequency would the reactance of the series resonating capacitor be
significant and give a higher value of perceived resistance?
I could also use my 3M bridge (page 86 of LF book), which can measure R at
the operating frequency (136kHz and 73kHz). The resonance curve could then
be plotted using the S/W shown on Fig 6.12.
More experimenting to be done when the weather gets dryer.

Peter, G3LDO

and my setup here shows that you enter gray line at 0710 utc tonight, three
minutes later on Friday.  If we have a peak at grayline onset, which I often
see here on DCF39, then maybe we have a chance of seeing you.  The best
thing is I often see what I would like to call "two carriers" from DCF39,
about .05 Hz or less apart, the lower one eventually fades down and the
upper one gets stronger.  When I see both signals simultaneously I know I
will have a good evening of DCF39 signals when I only see the upper one I
will have an average evening.

I retuned everything here today, so hope you have a chance to hear me as
well.

Hi all L.F. ers,

I wonder if anyone on the reflector can steer me towards some technical
information on a LORAN Receiver. It is manufactured by Impulse Electronics
( U.S.A. ) with the model number 2830.  A good friend is attempting to make
this thing operate ... he can see that the receiver is decoding 9 pulses,
but just keeps searching.  Any help or tips would be much appreciated.

I have spent a lot of effort putting another 15 meters of  22 m.m. copper
pipe vertically into the ground, so I hope to be back on 136 and 73 kHz very
soon with an improved signal (maybe)!

Many Thanks,

73 de Graham B. Phillips.  G3XTZ.

Its just that I have never met a G3J over the past 40 plus years that
cannot send/receive normal hand sent cw. It is not sniping its FACT. I am
sure there is a good reason for it.
Your QRS signal this afternoon was 25 db above the noise floor, not sure

Dear Wolf, LF Group,

I did listen for the IMAGE satellite on 24th, but although I was able to 
get rid of most mains QRM above 6kHz, also heard nothing, apart from very 
loud QRN and related peculiar noises. I could not see or hear the Alpha 
beacons, which had been clearly audible the previous day, so not sure if 
just very noisy conditions, or these off the air too.

On the basis that 73kHz propagation seems to be in the doldrums at the 
moment, I will not run the beacon tonight, and wait until the 73.25kHz 
Rugby signal has picked up again on the other side of the pond.

Re: monitoring the signal levels around 73k - I am something of a fan of 
DL4YHF's Spectrum Lab - the spectrum analyser display gives you a direct 
measure in dB of the signal ampltude. If you set up the colour scale for 
the waterfall display to something that you like, varying the "brightness" 
and "contrast" sliders vary the display from an Argo-like high contrast 
good for reading QRSS to a low contast, multi coloured display that is 
better for looking at relative signal levels.

Cheers, Jim Moritz

Well, to be correct to the last bit, I think to have been the first to use it,
but not in Argo, rather in the latest version of Spectran. Under the main
menu choice 'Mode', you can load a few preset modes, i.e. QRSS3,
QRSS10, etc. I chose this naming convention to save space on the menu...

Mal,

A lot of us would welcome your "critisism" far more if you stuck to 
technicalities and cut out the cheap sniping at anyone who doesn't see 
things your way.

The Siemens Datatrak signals you're finding are from transmitters in 
Argentina (Buenos Aires).

Hello David,

On 136kHz the loss resistance you encounter is often much more than just
groundloss. Any obstacles (trees, buildings etc...) that are relatively
close to the antenna will contribute and increase the loss.
I got stuck with a loss that varies from 120 Ohm in winter to 150 Ohm in
summer, because of the many trees surrounding my antenna. Improving the
ground system wasn't any help, doubling the radial system made the loss
drop no more than a few Ohm.
I'm running 450W and never got more than 2 amp through the system (typicaly
1.9A in winter, and 1.7A in summer).

73, Rik  ON7YD

I started pondering ways to make useful measurements of 70-75 kHz commercial
signals coming from across the pond. My receiver has a useless S-meter, so
we'll skip that approach. Here's one possibility with a surprising result:

The following was done between 0130 and 0200 tonight. My loop preamp is not
at the antenna, but rather in the shack. I put a variable 50 ohm attenuator
between the output of the preamp and my receiver. Tuning to 75.0 kHz, I
heard what I assume to be HBG. I started ARGO, with the 3 sec/dot screen
(basically because I want instant results). I found that it took 65 dB of
attenuation to remove the HBG line from the screen. Dropping down to 73.30
kHz, it took 60 dB of attenuation to kill the rather broad line from the FSK
signal. Considering that the Rugby station's power is spread over 100 Hz
(though concentrated at 73.2 and 73.3 from the look of it), that seems
reasonable. In any case, that's a lot of attenuation.

Of course, there's a lot to be gained by narrowing the BW, so I ran ARGO at
60 sec/dot, and had to crank in another 13 dB to kill HBG. There's a
considerable time lag in making such measurements, so fading sets some
limits on accuracy. But I did end up barely being able to see the signal
at -77 dB. Interesting, eh?

One possible objection to the method is that the absolute value of the
attenuation is probably in error due to the output impedance of the preamp
and the input impedance of the receiver not being 50 ohms. While that's
true, at least the changes in attenuation needed to kill the signal under
various band conditions would still be valid. This will enable me to track
things on a day-to-day basis.

Thoughts and criticisms would be appreciated.

John Andrews, W1TAG

And in the spirit of humble confession, I later realized that I had been
seeing it on my Argo screen courtesy of Alberto di Bene. Sort of like
subliminal advertising, I guess.

It is now Alberto's turn to either claim authorship or make his own
confession. Having unburdened myself, I feel positively at peace with the
world.

Andy,

> What was the frequency ?  

Somewhere in the vicinity of the 80 meter band, probably....
It is drifting a few Hz around 3593.55 kHz.
A mixer/BPF/PA is on the workbench. It will eventually
become GPS disciplined.

Didn't you see the screenshot of a mysterious signal that

Hi Jim,

thanks for the report!

The TX is not fuzzy, just drifting slowly. What you saw was probably spectral
spreading caused by the evil Mr. Doppler who is shaking the ionospheric
mirrors.

LF is more "phase stable".

Walter,

> Interesting! Is that RADIATED power or DC input?

It is output power. The beacon TX feeds 1mW into the coax.
The output voltage from the signal generator is 1Vp-p and there
is a -4dB attenuator between the generator and the antenna
feedline. The antenna is a dipole at about 8m height with approx.
20m RG58 feedline. The antenna appears to be well matched at
this frequency, close to 50+j0 ohms at the TX end of the coax.

The actual radiated power is less than 1mW due to the well known
"garden loss" (although I doubt that this beacon will heat the soil
enough to make the carrots grow faster and bigger :-)

> My 0.5 mW (radiated) on 136 kHz has only made 300 kms so far.
> (1W RF into antenna coil)

The atmospheric noise level is MUCH worse on 136kHz.

Right.
It is interesting to look at the carriers from various broadcasting powerhouses
on HF. Sometimes they spread out 10-20Hz or so, sometimes the same
stations produce a thin line on the spectrogram. Longer paths seems to
produce wider traces, as expected. It all depends on the mood of Mr. Doppler
who seems to depend on the mood of the Sun.

Mike,

Yes. It is not my idea. I got it from the Lowfer mail reflector a week or
two ago. I think Les Rayburn, N1LF, "invented" it but I am not sure.
(I lost all my old email when "downgrading" to a new web browser a
few days ago...)

James Moritz described in  his e-mail of 21 November 2001 at 13.38 hrs. a
method of measuring Q of a coil that was new to me. Jim wrote:

I used this method and two other ones to measure the Q of my loading coil.
The coil can be seen on page 62  and on the cover of the LF Handbook (the
caption of Fig. 4.17 at page 62 describes the coil on the cover).

With a 47nF 2% capacitor in parallel the coil resonates at 11.56kHz. From
this follows an inductance of 4033 microhenry (the large value of the
capacitor eliminates the influence of the unknown self-capacitance of the
coil). At 137kHz the inductive reactance of the coil is 3470 ohms.

Using Jim's method I found a resistance of 9.17 ohms for the coil. This
yields a Q of 3470/9.11 = 378.

I also measured the resistance at 137kHz of the series resonant circuit,
consisting of coil and vacuum capacitor,  using an admittance bridge.  I
found the resistance to be 9.11 ohms. From this follows a Q of 381.

I finally made a parallel resonant circuit at 137kHz, again using the vacuum
capacitor. The bandwidth between the -3dB frequencies was 340Hz. This yields
a Q of 137000/340 = 403. To avoid damping of the circuit by the tracking
generator and selective voltmeter I excited the coil with a single turn
loop, located 36cm below the bottom end of the coil. I connected a 1:10
oscilloscope probe to the voltmeter and clipped it on the insulation of the
top end of the coil.

The Q values found of 378, 381 and 403 are within 4% of the average value of
387. This result is not too bad I think.

73, Dick, PA0SE

Hi Trond ...

Besides 132.24 and 146.40 kHz signals, now I´m shure that there´s TWO
DATATRAK signals on 146.4KHz. One is very strong here (now peaking 15dBuV)
and the other is weak. Different timings btw.

Tomorrow I´ll RDF them, at least to have a bearing + ambiguity.

Hello David.
You are the strongest signal that I have heard for a long time from the South
with your 2 amps antenna current. Others with 4 amps plus are well down on your
signal. Look out for smoke on the horizon. Lots of coils have gone up in flames
before and no doubt many more will go again. Big coil fires and mosfet PA
zapping is a persuit down South !!!!

CAN'T a word that you have left out is more appropriate. Andy it is never too
late to learn the code and listen to some slow morse transmissions to get you
going. I have heard via the grape vine that you appreciate my constructive

Its a pity David you did not let some of us know that you were going. I
would also have put out a signal for you and maybe worked xband. Maybe
next time !!

Dear LF Group,

Won't be running the 73kHz beacon tonight due to other commitments. Will be 
QRV again tomorrow, if conditions seem reasonable.

>From monitoring of overseas beacons and LF standard frequency and time
signals, with significant skywave component in the DX paths (signal strength
is much higher at night time), I have not seen evidence of frequency shift
from the assumed stable frequency of the transmitter.  If there is Doppler
shift, it would seem to have limits of no more than 0.1 Hz for carriers
around 200 kHz, and is probably proportionally less for lower frequencies.

Dear David, LF Group,

 From my own investigations and those of others,  amateur 136k antenna loss 
resistance can vary between 10-20 ohms at minimum to as much as a few 
hundred ohms, so yours appears to be at the upper end of the spectrum. Much 
bigger, commercial antennas have loss resistances of a few ohms.

The resistance introduced by the actual ground system itself appears not to 
be the dominant factor in most cases - several people have found that once 
a certain point has been reached, improving the ground system further makes 
little difference. The most likely explanation for this seems at the moment 
to be that most of the antenna resistance is due to dielectric losses in 
objects in the field close to the antenna, such as buildings, trees, and 
the ground itself. There seem to be 3 practical approaches to reducing losses:

Increasing antenna height
Increasing the separation from surrounding "lossy" objects
Increasing the amount of top loading.

These three things are obviously interdependent - it is hard to increase 
the length of top loading wires and at the same time increase separation 
from other objects, so experimentation to find the best compromise is 
needed. The most effective measure is to increase height, since this also 
increases the radiated power for a given antenna current, but there are 
usually practical restrictions on this.

For example, I was able to reduce losses in my antenna substantially by 
eliminating the parts of wires closest to the ground, moving the remaining 
wire away from trees and building, and as a side effect increasing the 
height slightly because of the reduced sagging in the wire. On the other 
hand, G3AQC was able to obtain a substantial improvement by increasing the 
area covered by the top loading wires of his antenna. It seems each 
individual location will have a unique solution to what is the best antenna 
to minimise losses.

Good luck with your antenna, and hope to see you on the air soon,

Cheers, Jim Moritz

see http://a108.adsl.nextgen.net.mt/marl/info/licence.htm

Couldn't find wether Malta allows 136kHz operation, but in case someone is

Hi ...

The same FSK, 100Hz shift, was received at 23°S/46°W at 4:30 UTC aprox,
centered at 73.25KHz. Sometimes audible, but most of the time only detected
on Spectran.

Other signals:

DCF77 (77.5K) detected
WWVB (60.0K) very weak
DCFXX (129.1K) nil
DATATRAK (133.24) huge signal (20dBuv)
DATATRAK (146.40) huge signal (15dBuv) - there's another Datatrak station on
146.4, weaker.

Seems that the path at 70KHz was good to Europe and bad for NA. On 130KHz
and above not so good. BCs had its normal fs. Those Datatrak seems Argentina
and South Africa. One of them is a daytimer here (forgot which one).

Same report from North Carolina.  Caught a lot of teasers on Laurie's
frequency but they just won't cooperate and line up.  Doppler shift
maybe :)

Read the article on Dopplergrams by G3PLX in RadCom three or four years ago
...
There is likely to be several Hz of Doppler shift on that frequency at night
time.

Guess who forgot that simple fact last night !

John,

I'm using a square loop, 2 meters on a side, 14 turns, with the turns spaced
2.5 cm. The wire is 12 gauge, and the loop is series-tuned into a coupling
transformer. There is no ground connection on the loop side of the
transformer, and I've taken pains to keep things balanced. The transformer
presently has a 2:1 ratio, with the "2" side connected to coax that runs
back to the shack. Tuning of the loop is done with relay-switched capacitors
in increments of 50 pf (a 1-2-4-8... sequence with 8 relays). At 73 kHz,
about 6400 pf is in use. I'll need finer tuning than that if I want to
increase the turns ratio of the transformer, so I'll probably be adding a
motor-driven variable cap. The preamp has an honest 50 ohm input (grounded
base), and about 30 dB of gain.

I don't think there's anything unusual here, but it does work. My QTH is in
a residential area just outside a mid-sized city. It's not an RF-quiet spot.

I'll be experimenting with ways to track the signal strength on 73.25. My
receiver's s-meter is probably the least useful thing in the whole setup!

John Andrews, W1TAG

It is at least 60dB up on amateur transmissions. Jim is about 10km from me 
and he is S9 when Rugby is 9+60. Rugby is 150km away!

Laurie, Jim:

Nothing seen on 72 kHz last night. It was a bit stormy in this area, and the
noise levels were up. However, no fragments of your signals could be seen,
indicating that propagation may have indeed slipped.

Dear LF Group,

Transmitted on 72.4018kHz from about 2315 until 0505 last night, with QRSS120.

I also saw SM6LKM's 80m signals, about 5-6 Hz above the nominal frequency, 
between about 2130 and 2300. Copy was "M" to "O" (see attachment) - I found 
better results were obtained using somewhat wider bandwidth spectrogram 
settings than usual -  Using Spectrum Lab, about 0.3Hz resolution, and Argo 
on 3s dots, slow speed, seemed to be optimum. If higher resolution was 
used, the lines were quite fuzzy, whether due to propagation or TX I don't 
know. RX was RA1792, and the antenna was my LF TX wire. This could be an 
interesting way of monitoring HF propagation; It hardly takes up any 
bandwidth, and does not require an elaborate TX or antenna to get a few mW ERP.

Cheers, Jim Moritz

Johan,

Is QRSS10 a way of saying QRSS with 10s dots? If so, this is the first time I 
have seen this but it is a really good way of describing it. I was the inventor 
of the term QRSS and take an interest in any modifications to it! I suppose 
DFCW30 would work, too with the number describing the element length.

Hi John,
That is it! Your picture shows exactly what I see on 73.3kHz. It is not RTTY
but 100Hz wide FSK centred on 73.25.
You evidently have a very good antenna for this direction. I would very much
appreciate some details please.
73, John, G4CNN

I saw nothing, but may have gone for too narrow a bandwidth on the
monitoring system - Argo in this case - and missed the signal.
What was the frequency ?  

QRSS would be an interesting way for those of us who don't and won't use CW
to cross the Atlantic on topband.  No comments from Scarborough please !

Interesting! Is that RADIATED power or DC input?
My 0.5 mW (radiated) on 136 kHz has only made 300 kms so far.

ZL LF DX TESTING ON 1 DECEMBER

Two ZL LF stations will be transmitting on September 1 December.  Separate
frequencies are allocated to each participating station, as summarised in
the following table:

FREQUENCY SCHEDULE FOR TRANSPAC TESTING

FREQUENCY  STATION   LOCATION
  kHz
137.7898          ZL6QH     Near Wellington
182.000            ZL3VN     Christchurch

SIGNAL FORMATS
ZL6QH will send QQQQQ... with dual frequency CW, using plus and minus 0.2 Hz
shift, 120 second dot length.  Q will be encoded as 137.7900, 137.7900,
137.7896, 137.7900 kHz, and then a 120 second gap before starting the next
Q.  The ten minute sequences will be nominally synchronised with the hour
(there could be some minor slippage in the control software).  ZL6QH will
transmit from well before ZL sunset to well after ZL sunrise, which is
approximately over the period 0700 to 1800 UTC on 1 December.

ZL2VN will send ZL3VN ZL3VN ... with single frequency QRSS CW, using 3
second dot length, for a 30 minute period, then send VN VN ... using 20
second dot length.  Sequences will nominally commence on the hour and half
hour.

Reception reports can be emailed to vernall@xtra.co.nz or else posted to the
reflector.

Good luck to all prospective listeners.

73, Bob ZL2CA

Larry,

Yes, I likely can have a signal on air by 0700 UTC.  It is well before local
sunset at ZL6QH, however, I'll take any DX that comes ...

Hi Uwe,

*many!!!* thanks for the report! The screen shot speaks for itself!
Where are you located?

Multipath fading, Doppler shift and other ionospheric evilness works
against us but nevertheless, QRSS seems to work on HF too!

My current beacon uses a sloppy "can oscillator" which is drifting several
Hz on 80m but I am working on a new beacon using a frequency standard
that is much better than a piece of rock... Stay tuned...


Jim:
>Re: QRSS on 80m - Sounds like fun, I will try to receive it later on.

It is fun! I managed to receive 15s dot QRSS from SM0AOM (who also
is on this list, BTW, hej Karl-Arne!) on 40m some months ago. He
transmitted a 0.75uW (microwatt) signal and I got a solid copy on the
Argo screen with surprisingly little "spectral smearing". Distance is
approx. 400km. The F-layer must have been acting as a perfect mirror
that day. This worked on the very first attempt so, statistically, either -
we had luck - or - this is indeed workable! Low dipoles were used at
both ends (NVIS?).


The beacon will continue to run through the night (QRSS10 on 3593.546-ish...).

Sorry for the off-topic/off-band message..

QTH Camberley, Surrey.

Thanks for the report - it looks like my efforts in putting down more
radials is paying dividends.

I've now got almost a kilometre of 2.5mm^2 wire in my ground system, but my
system losses (including the loading coil) are still well over 100 ohms and
consequently I've having difficulties in getting the antenna current up to
much over a couple of amps.

The one thing which I've never seen in any amateur text books is what are
the value of the ground and system losses normally achievable? I know this
is akin to asking how long is a piece of string, but there must be some
typical examples?

Hello
Its a pity we cannot get more acty going from Southern and Eastern EU. I
have been heard in Malta and and other locations in Southern Spain and
Eastern EU but no one seems to be getting enthusastic about transmitting
for a two way qso. I also know others have been heard in these places.
Maybe the band will never become popular because of the very low band
occupancy and having gone to a lot of trouble there is not the quantity
of activity to justify the effort. This is the feed back that I am
getting when I speak to others around EU and beyond.
I think they could be right. I had the antenna towers already installed
and although there was effort involved to modify the system for LF it
probably was not worth the effort.
This weekend due to the contest all HF bands were completely congested,
cw is certainly not on the way out, one could hardly find a slot all the
way from 160 - 10 metres, 10 metres was swamped with acty world wide, so
for a very modest antenna 8 ft vertical, the qso yield was enormous.
Compare this to 136 khz where I managed to have 3 qso all weekend,
OK1DTN, ON7ZO and G6RO.
Room for thought!!

Hi Bob,

guess we have to go one step further: looking back from the antenna into the 
loadingcoil. 

I f.e. have to adjust the variometer of the loadingcoil (searching maximum of 
rx-voltage or antamp peak with an hitzdraht ampmeter)
1. if switching from rx to tx 10W output
and newly
2. if switching from rx to tx 100W output (test)
and
3. if switching from rx to tx 500W output (test).

the adjust degrees at the variometer differ vy little switching the tx from 10W 
to 100W to 500W. the bridge shows no difference, but the hitzdraht ampmeter 
(peak) does.

from rx (FT1000) to tx  10W (Z 50ohm) it is abt 10ohm (!) up.

regards
Uwe/dj8wx

Dear Dexter, Peter, LF Group,

Can't remember what the ERP for the 73.25k Rugby transmission was when I 
measured it last, but I think it was in the 10s of kW. With amateur signals 
of the order of 100mW or so, the difference in ERP is more like 50 to 60dB. 
No wonder the noise sidebands are such a pain for amateur operation in the UK!

Incidentally, I find that the 25Hz filter on the SPM19 selective level 
meter I have rings rather badly with thunderstorm QRN, so often better 
results can often be had using a wider filter, even with narrow band signals.

Cheers, Jim Moritz,
73 de M0BMU

<DIV>I need to do some more detective work, but I have a strong signal here in 
Massachusetts, from 73.2 to 73.3 kHz. There have been listings of CFH on 73.6, 
but perhaps they have moved down to 73.25. In any case, it makes it very hard to 
read a signal on 73.3. This shot was taken at 11 AM local time:</DIV>

<DIV>I will look again tonight, but I doubt that 73.3 will be much of an 
indicator from here.</DIV>

Dear LF Group,

Re: QRSS on 80m - Sounds like fun, I will try to receive it later on. 
Earlier in the year I was able to copy Bill Ashlock's WA, one of the US 
"Hifer" beacons around 13.555MHz, running similar power levels and 3s/dot QRSS.

Re: Measuring antenna Q - as has been pointed out, you would need to know 
the source impedance of the TX; for many transmitters, as well as not being 
known at the outset this is probably non-linear (ie. varies depending on 
load), so if you wanted to do it this way, some kind of attenuating pad 
between TX output and antenna would be advisable. This would also reduce 
the amount of distress the TX is subjected to.

Re: 73kHz - I note there has been another almost X-class flare today, 
however the geomagnetic storm seems to have died down, and Alan has 
convinced me that propagation will definitely be marvellous, so I will give 
the beacon another go tonight. It will be on QRSS120, 72.4018kHz again.

Cheers, Jim Moritz

Excellent! This can be the basis for monitoring 73kHz T/A propagation.
Expect ham radio signals to be about 30 - 35 dB down on this! (anyone who
would like to correct this figure - please do).
Propagation studies on  136kHz were done by Alan, G3NYK, who monitored the
Canadian Naval station CFH in Nova Scotia. See www.qsl.net/on7yd/ for
details.

This could be a good Lowfer project in the USA

I lost all signal from the 73.3 kHz RTTY station by 0100 UT last
evening.  QRN was very high so the signal could have been just below my
noise level.  Relative signal strength logged are as follows:

2100 UT -52   dbm
2300 UT -48   dbm
0000 UT -47.5 dbm
0100 UT  undetectable
0200 UT      "
0300 UT      "
0400 UT      "

Bob, K3DJC, in Pa. also was hearing the signal.

I will be looking for the signal again.  I don't recall hearing it
before but when listening for G3AQC the receiver was in 20 Hz IF mode so
I would not have heard the RTTY.

73,
Dexter

Bob:

I have been digging into my programs here and I show your grayline starting
about 0720 utc on December 1st.

Is it possible for you to start transmitting at 07 utc, or even a bit
earlier Please.

I have also arranged for my friends with their mobile clocks to go by here
late on the 30th so I will be freshly calibrated in frequency for the tests
on the 1st.

I have also installed Internet service here in the remote site so I will
have real time monitoring as well as Internet if there is any interest in
that.  I will have the usual telephone lines, if you want the number for a
voice line in here let me know, it will be different than for the TA tests
last year.

Yes, that can be done, Actually that was how I measured the earth resistance
at my QTH as a function of frequency.  I first measured the total resistance
of aerial + coil. Then the resistance of the coil was measured separately
and this value was subtracted from the first reading. That gave the earth
resistance.
The resistance of the aerial wires and the radiation resistance were
neglected because they are a very small part of the total resistance in the
system.

I reported my findings on the reflector and I now repeat part of the text of
that message.

"I used a Wayne Kerr admittance bridge that shows the admittance as a
conductance in millimhos (now called millisiemens) in parallel with a
capacitance in pF.
I left the C-control at zero because the aerial resistance was measured at
resonance. Jim, M0BMU, has clearly explained why this is the better way.
As source and detector I used a Wandel & Goltermann signal generator SP-12
and selective level meter SPM-12. They can be interconnected so the SPM-12
also controls the frequency of the SP-12. Because in this way source and
detector are always tuned to exactly the same frequency I could use the
SPM-12 at its 25Hz bandwidth position which helped to avoid strong signals
and noise received by the aerial polluting the measurements.

The coil has taps after every ten turns. I shortcircuited increasing parts
of the coil using those taps. (I also tried leaving the unused part open.
But as the used part became smaller and the unused part larger the voltage
at the top end of the coil increased more and more, rendering the system
extremely sensitive to hand capacitance effect).
At each tap the frequency for resonance was sought and the conductance read
from the bridge.

The resistance of the coil at each tap was found by replacing the aerial by
a variable vacuum capacitor. The capacitor was adjusted until resonance was
obtained. The high Q of the coil made tuning extremely critical; in fact
hand capacitance made it impossible to tune precisely to the resonance
frequency. Fortunately the frequency of the PS-12/SPM-12 combination can be
adjusted in very small steps and this was used to tune exactly to the
resonance frequency. "

Many thanks, Dexter, for the great puzzle.  Unfortunately, I failed
miserably trying to solve it.  Although this is an FSK signal,
I don't think it is RTTY in the usual sense.  Does anyone know the
format (or at least the source)?

The apparent baud rate is 74.99; of course this is affected by the
sampling rate of Dexter's sound card.  The frequency shift is also
very close to 75 Hz, but I don't believe that it's precisely one
carrier cycle per bit time, because attempts at coherent detection
were unsuccessful.  However, even with a time-between-zero-crossings
detector, the S/N was quite good (with aggressive predetect filtering).
I considered a bit questionable when its frequency offset was less
than 40% of average; only one of 1142 bits failed this test.
So I'm confident that the data is nearly correct.  Unfortunately,
I couldn't find any start or stop bits, any sign of a character
length, any repeating patterns, or any other indication that it
is anything but random.  I suspect that this data is compressed,
encrypted, uses ECC, or perhaps all of the above.

If you can make any sense of the message below, let us know. "X"

Gave a listen and will start to monitor
Signal at York Pa is not as loud but good copy
at 0025 UTC

posting to the net is a good idea.

Mal,

thank you for report, but no rx at moment in my new (and cold) shack.
I'm waiting for a baby, so no more room for radio in my home, only in
the field.
I made some transmission test for Italian  sations(IK7-IS0) interested
in developing 136 kHz activity.

Hi All,

there is a QRSS10 beacon on 3593.539 kHz (give or take a Hz or two).

What does it say?

Power is 1 mW into a dipole 8m above GND.

Peter,

At 2100 hrs I am receiving a good RTTY signal on 73.3 kHz.  Since this
is the first time I have listened for this transmission I have no
reference to judge it's current signal strength.  It sounds strong
enough I almost believe it would print here if the static crashes were
absent.

Last night was a complete wipe out for my 73 kHz reception due to
thunder storms in the area.  Tonight will be even worse but the much
needed rain is well welcomed.

Dexter, W4DEX

Hi all, John stole the march on me I had not looked at the charts until
after flying the last message (This the the MS Outook Exp. send before
receive). As he rightly says the CME arrived nearly 24 hours early (on
normal calculations) and the Kp hit 9 early today. This one will last a long
time, but the LF propagation should not start to decline before Tuesday.
What could be a problem is noise levels in Canada and the US if there are
widespread aurora. Enhanced daytime reception is the 'giveaway' if you
monitor any stations regularly. Its still worth a couple more nights!!

Walter,

I have not been reading all messages on this thread, but I have some
comments on your item:

> If you measured the bandwidth of an entire antenna system, (earth-tuning

It is prudent to call them "all other losses" and that includes equivalent
earth loss.  One factor that is easy to overlook is loss within the
transmitter (the source resistance looking back into the transmitter).  This
is fairly hard to measure as it is easy to fry test gear.  I do know from
operation of my own LF PA that the source resistance changes depending on
power level.  Even though the transmitter is optimised for 50 ohm loading
(low pass filter and coupling designed for 50 ohm interconnection), that
does not mean it is 50 ohms looking back into the transmitter.  The more
efficient the transmitter, the lower the effective source resistance (the
idea is to get maximum power in the load).  Transmitter efficiency is a
rough indication of trend, with highest efficiency having lowest resistance.
Hard switching finals likely have much lower source resistance than finals
that are linear amplifiers.

If the same antenna is used for receiving, then it could be that the
receiver presents a good 50 ohm load, in which case the antenna system Q
would be lower than when transmitting (where the transmitter is a low source
resistance).

There are parallel cases with high Q HF transmitting antennas, where antenna
tuners have separate optimum adjustments for tx and rx.  I believe the
explanation is in the differing resistances (or impedances with differing R
component) of the transmitter output and receiver input.

73, Bob ZL2CA

Hi Guys, dont give up just yet...... The CME is due (late 25th or 26th maybe
even later...this was only and X1.0 though it was preceded by an M4.0 so the
plasma 'glob' will be quite big ) but the injected ions (electrons) take
about another 3 days to start to have radio effects at these lattitudes. It
seems to take time for them to diffuse down to the D layer and out from the
magnetic poles. There is a big proton event at the moment and these 'seem'
to coincide somethimes with good conditions. Don't write conditions off
until Wednesday night at the earliest..... in fact it could be getting
better.

Many thanks for your efforts that end. Would it be possible for as many
stations on your side of the Atlantic to monitor the RTTY station at Rugby
on 73.3kHz during the CME disturbance - we have very little knowledge of
T/A propagation on this band.

In view of what you say I will not beacon of 73kHz tonight but might try
135.99kHz if anyone is interested.

Peter, G3LDO

Easy : it was a "proficient CW operator", only using "hand sent morse"  :-)

If you measured the bandwidth of an entire antenna system, (earth-tuning 
coil-antenna), then measured the bandwidth of the coil itself alone, could 
this be used to get some idea of earth losses?  Could it be assumed the 
ohmic losses in the system are negligible compared with earth?

Dear LF Group,

The 73kHz TX ran OK between about 2230 and 0550 last night; thanks to those 
who watched for it and to DF6NM for the report. I also took the opportunity 
to do some more field strength measurements - I have not done the 
calculations yet, but the FS values look roughly in line with my estimate 
of 80mW ERP.

Looking at the space weather, it seems to be stormy weather in the 
ionosphere at the moment, so I will give it a rest tonight, and perhaps try 
again tomorrow night.

Cheers, Jim Moritz

John said "Well I guess it had to end------ "
Yes I guess it did but it was fun,so thanks for listening John, Dex
and the others,thanks for the reports and pics from far and near.
I have been looking at various solar numbers during the tests
and far from predicting when propagation will be OK I can at least say when
it wont !  During Wednesday night 21/22 Nov the Sun Spot number dropped from
160 to 132, the Kp index was 1-2 and the Boulder A index was 7. On thursday
all these numbers began to rise, and by last night S.Spot was 144, Kp was3
and Boulder A10. Today these no's are still rising.So I shall continue to
look for the low no's.  See you all again on136 or 73.  73s Laurie.

Well, I guess it had to end. Absolutely nothing was visible from Laurie or
Jim on 72 kHz last night. I kept the screen on 120 sec dots, which precluded
being able to see Peter.

A CME is due to arrive in the next day, so I suppose that will muck things
up for a while. Anyway, thanks to all who participated and encouraged. And
particularly to Laurie, who must be owed a few quid for his AC supplier!

Hi Jim and LF Group

Jim Said
> My 136k Loading coil has 80 odd turns of Decca litz wire on a sectional
> manhole former. L is about 4mH, and Rseries about 5ohms, making Q around
> 700.

My 136kHz coil is a rewound Decca coil with two layers of coil and the
original variometer, which was also rewound. This gives a coil with an
inductance variation of 1.7mH to 2.2mH.

> For 73k, another sectional manhole is stacked on top, wound with about

with

I am using a sectional manhole former for the the 73kHz coil wound exactly
as Jim describes but using the yellow 2mm Litz wire. It uses around 98 turns
(7turns per slot) to give an inductance of around 6.8mH (forgot to make a
note of that L measurment and the figure is from memory). When the two coils
were stacked the inductance was 10mH and 9.2 when the variometer was set to
minimum.

> So G3LDO's Qs of less
> than 200 suggest either poor inductor performance or Q measurement errors.

Using Jim's coil construction as a standard of comparison I would have
expected a coil of similar construction but using less turns per section,
and using Litz wire, to have a Q something in excess of 300. My
measurements, using the method that I have already described was still less
than 200 no matter how much care I took reducing the coupling to the
measuring instruments. I feel that this method of measuring Q is OK for
loaded Q as in a filter and that other methods described by Jim and Ha Jo
DJ1ZB are more appropriate for hi Q measurements.

> My main reason for winding big loading coils was to stop the
> things melting!

Well thats it. I had a coil catch fire when the windings slipped and an arc
occured through the plastic insulation.
Thanks to everyone who offered suggestions on this subject. I will but a
synopsis of this discussion on the Web page when I get it together.

Peter, G3LDO

Many thanks for the report Markus. From picture you sent it would seem
better if I moved up in frequency to 73.4005 for the next test.
I ran the transmitter all night with 4amps to the antenna. Two cells in the
UPS pack got a bit hot but everything else ran cool. I must get a couple of
replacement cells on my next trip to Crawley (have you any left Derek?).

Just caught up with the excellent work this last week - well done to Laurie
and John in particular, but also the others in NA who were receiving and the
guys in UK transmitting.

It makes our efforts to extend our usage on this band, back in 2000, all
worthwhile.

Hi All,
Well I have achieved what I set out to do,so would be happy to stop the
beacon now if anyone wants to have a go. But I am aware that there are
others who were looking for my signal, Dex for example.Also there
propagation issues to investigate ,for example why did'nt Dex see the
signal,and will conditions hold up much longer. So I am quite happy to
beacon again for a night or two,unless anyone has any other ideas ?
Thanks for all the messages   73s  Laurie..

Dear Dexter,

your question has not yet been answered here:

No, the complete antenna system is also damped by the ground loss resistance which usually is much higher than the coil series loss resistance itself, therefore bandwidth of the complete antenna system will be much larger.

Thanks for the clarification, Larry.  That's most enlightening.

I must say, I hadn't thought of the PL application for the 1000Hz tone.  Last 
time I had any contact with such a network was a quarter century ago when I 
hung around our local auto salvage yard quite a bit, and they would poll 
other yards around the Southeast trying to find bits and pieces to keep my 
Triumph GT-6 on the road.  The most self-contradictory collection of 
mechanical systems ever assembled into one vehicle, it was no trivial task to 
keep roadworthy, I can tell you.  It was also my first introduction to the 
concept of dimensional transcendentalism, years before Dr. Who was available 
over here.  But a haunted sports car whose interior contents would vanish 
into some other continuum and return at random is rather off topic for this 
reflector, I suspect....

73,

The transmission has been on since 2300 and the power is good (4amps into
the antenna) and the power supply looks stable.
I think I will go to bed and leave the transmission running

Jim, Laurie and Peter,

nice signals from your transatlantic triumvirate: BMU and AQC about equal 
strength here, LDO some 2 dB weaker around midnight UTC. Yesterday, QRN was 
lower and signals were quite audible beating against each other, with Peter 
about 3 dB down on Laurie.

Best of luck to all of you
de Markus, DF6NM

Hi John et al,

John, W1TAG said,

>My wife has reminded me of a social obligation tonight. If anyone is
running, I will start the recording before >we leave, and hopefully can
check it by 0200. The wx forecast is fine for here, but will again by stormy
in the >south central U.S.

I will transmit with more power but for a shorter period (2300 until 0100)
for the reasons described earlier.

I will transmit QRSS 60 second dots on 72.3994kHz

Regards,
Peter, G3LDO

Jim & Laurie,

I will have my gear running and recording by 2230, but won't be able to
provide any reports until at least 0130, as I will be socially occupied (per
my wife's very insistent instructions).

Jim, I assume you will be using CW, rather than DFCW. Correct?

John Andrews, W1TAG

Hello  Jim
That was a nice shot of my signal you took last night just below 136
khz.
The speed was 2 wpm, the slowest that I can go with the auto keyer. I
was expecting a report from the USA !!!!!!!!!!!!!! but am satisfied with
yours for the time being !!
It is not computer generated and not in the same category as most of the
other very slow morse about. Like you I heard IK5ZPV at S8 very strong
but he did not appear to be listening for a qso.
I have worked him many times before. Good luck with your new loop.
I was also doing a soak test last night at the low speed to check for
heating, fires etc !! fortunately the PA and associated coils were
barely warm. It looks promising for the very very slow cw if I have to
QRS further hi

Dear LF Group,

Hope to be QRV on 73k from around 2300 this evening. I shall try 72.4018kHz 
with 120s dots.

Back a while ago I got my foot firmly into my mouth re 20/1000 ringing
induction on the POTS telephone network in this age.  My apology to all.

20/1000 was used extensively in the old analogue network, the toll
transmission part of the system.  It was also used extensively in private
line systems such as air traffic control and weather circuits where the line
was monitored full time by a speaker system.  The 20 Hz rang the bells, the
1000 hz woke up those who were audio monitoring.  When you lifted the
handset the speaker was cut off, so if the handset was sitting on the desk
the bells rang, or the 1000 Hz would wake the dead through the speaker.

The ringing generators, a number of types, but in this case were made by the
Holtzer Cabot
Co. of Boston and examples are on display of the 20/1000 generators in a
number of museums, mainly in the USA.

Why I was convinced that this was used on the POTS network I am not sure.  I
have now checked
a number of line cards used in both ESS and DMS switches and find that it is
not even an option anymore.

Again my apology to all.

Larry

Hi all, I have not made any measurements on signals as low as 73kHz, but it
looks from John's results on Laurie's signal, as though the effects of the
big geomagnetic storm have not affected the lower frequency for as long as
its effects at 136. The normal final stages of the storms's effects on long
distance paths is first the show lots of very rapid fading (10 to 15 mins
peak to trough) . Over the next nights the fading period then seems to
lengthen. At 136kHz the normal pattern was often of two main peaks one about
midnight and other often better peak occuring about 60 to 90mins before dawn
in the UK. I have often seen a long dip between about 0200z and 0330z in the
137kHz path from CFH. It is a useful approximation to remember that the
shadow at 100kms altitude (Bottom of E-layer) is about about 1000 to 1200
miles further west of the shadow at ground level. The signal decays as the
sunlight ionises the region below, and the absorbtion produced wipes out the
path to the 'first reflection' point of a 2-hop path  (about 1/4 of the
transatlantic path length). In some respects I am not surprised about the
lack of other successes. I have found that conditions on 136kHz can vary
quite markedly over just 20 to 30 miles, and there were at time quite
considerable differences between the the signals I recorded, and Laurie
captured on his chart recorder. I suppose it all depends on the happy
conincidences of path-lengths and signal phases from different interfering
'rays'.

Thus the three observations from John W1TAG, seem to follow a pattern. It
goes to show you have great difficultly in predicting good nights, althouh
to be fair to the ol' rabbit's paw I did say things should be improving. The
longer wavelength at 73kHz possibly means it is not so badly affected by the
multipath fading conditions as 136kHz. and paths recover quickly. These
conditions could be an enhancement on 'normal flat conditions' as it is
possible that there was some multipath operating in Laurie and John's
favour. We have seen 6 to 10dB enhancement on 137kHz in similar conditions.
It just goes to show....never mind the theory, get on and try it !!  Dead
flat, quiet, solar conditions may not be the best, it is seeming to suggest
that the last gasp of a big geomagnetic event could just provide the boost
we need.

Well done all, keep the momentum up....we are still really just stumbling
around in the dark.

Cheers de Alan G3NYK

I heard IK5ZPV testing on 136 khz last evening at 2212 utc with a very
strong signal S8. He did not appear to be listening, no cq etc. Condx
seemed very good last night and some of the commercial stations were
around 6db above normal around the 136 khz freq area. Perhaps 136 would
have been a better bet last night for transatlantic rather than 73 khz.

Andy,

such creatures exist! For example UCN5895A.

MOS input, bipolar output, 50V (NPN emitter follower, unfortunately, you'll
lose 1.2V @ 120mA)

See also 5890 and 5891 for higher currents.

I just viewed last nights results.  No signals detected in North
Carolina.  QRN steadily increased overnight.  Storms are now 600 km
south west of my QTH and are moving closer. A good shower of rain would
be about as exciting as receiving a 73 kHz signal.  It's been over 6
weeks since we've had rain.  Congratulations again John.

Does anyone know of a chip that does the following function :

A serially loaded high-sided driver several outputs, with outpult voltage
rating greater than 15V and current > 100mA.   The sort of function that
would normally be met by a latched shift register plus a handful of medium
current PNP devices or P channel FETs.

The only ones I can find are the UCN5810/1/2 or UCN6809-1868.   family and
they are only rated at 25mA.due to Vce drop across emitter follower NPN
drivers.  Are there any in the 100 to 500mA rating ?

I'm sure there must be a huge number of designers who want this in a single
chip, and it can hardly be a difficult IC fabrication task.  It is surely
possible to fabricate medium current PNP transistors on the same die as NPN.
There are quintillions of the NPN equivalent low sided switch - just about
every micro controller to relay interface uses one !

(Needed to automatically switch power rails to a range of VCO modules
depending on frequency, in a wide band synthesizer under computer controll)

<DIV>Rik, Laurie, et al,</DIV>
<DIV>&nbsp;</DIV>
<DIV>Things eventually did improve last night. This was recorded from 0430 - 
0545 UTC:</DIV>
<DIV><IMG align=baseline alt="" border=0 hspace=0 
src="cid:001b01c1741b$7a659060$0300a8c0@charter.net"></DIV>
<DIV>&nbsp;</DIV>
<DIV>Argo was set for 120 sec dots, and as with the previous evening, there was 
some difficulty in separating successive characters on the same line. My cure in 
the earlier session was to use the 90 second screen, which worked fine under the 
better conditions. Last night, since I'd had trouble seeing anything useful on 
that screen, I left it at 120 seconds.</DIV>
<DIV>&nbsp;</DIV>
<DIV>I believe Laurie said that the off-time was 40 seconds. Perhaps even 60 
seconds would have made&nbsp;a difference.&nbsp;In the above case, the message 
was well known, and easily figured out.</DIV>
<DIV>&nbsp;</DIV>
<DIV>I saw some fragments in the early recording that <EM>might</EM> have been 
from Peter, but there was no way to tell.</DIV>
<DIV>&nbsp;</DIV>
<DIV>My wife has reminded me of a social obligation tonight. If anyone is 
running, I will start the recording before we leave, and hopefully can check it 
by 0200. The wx forecast is fine for here, but will again by stormy in the south 
central U.S.</DIV>
<DIV>&nbsp;</DIV>
<DIV>John Andrews, W1TAG</DIV></BODY></HTML>

Dear LF Group,

I was able to get reasonable field strength measurements of the two 73k 
beacons last night-

G3AQC -93dBuV/m, 22uV/m
G3LDO -95dBuV/m, 18uV/m

Don't have distance info to hand, but if you have d in km, E in uV/m, ERP 
is (E^2.d^2)/(49x10^6). You would have to add in any effects of ground wave 
losses also. My QTH is in IO91VR.

Also, when I got home last night just after 2200, heard a nice 559 "test" 
signal from IK5ZPV on a new RX loop I had left set up for testing. Not sure 
if this indicates good loop performance, or good propagation or both.

Ther was also a new QRSS signal I have not seen before, a little below 
136.0 kHz, just after 2300 (see attachment). Dot length was about 1second - 
can anyone identify ? :-)

Cheers, Jim Moritz

I have been so busy the last 48 hours I hadn't even time to check e-mail,
so with some delay my congrtas to Laurie & John for their fine achievement.

I'll have a look at that. But in fact these gaps are just there to make
things a bit convenient (and to give the TX a break), in principle one
could do without it is the dotlength in known by the RX.
Since 'time is money' - even in QRSS mode - things go fastest if you just
leave out the gaps. An alternative would be to have small frequency jump
(much smaller than the dot-dash jump) for 2 succesive dots/dashes.

Eg : Assume 120 sec/dot and a 1Hz dot/dash shift. If Argo is set at 90 or
120 sec. one can easily see a 0.1Hz jump, so if 2 succesive dots or dashes
occur we would have a 0.1Hz jump. No chance to confuse it with the 1Hz
dot/dash jump.
But this assumes a rather flexible VFO (PLL), so the question is if the
efford is worth the advantage ?

What say ?

73, Rik  ON7YD

May I also add my congratulations to Laurie and the rest - the screenshots this time
leave little doubt to the fact it happened!  As Mal says, they show that under the
right conditions it should be possible with lower power, faster keying etc - and even
normal cw, who knows.

Interestingly I can only just copy Laurie and/or Peter, their signals are way down on
Rugby.  But the only antenna I have for 73 these days is a 60ft long wire so entirely
my own fault.

Very little activity on 136 these days, only one or two stalwarts still at it I am
afraid.

Hello,

The TT22 is another 6L6 derived beam tetrode pretty much like the 807,
but with higher ratings and 11 mA/V slope,
anode dissipation 45 W ICAS and anode voltage 1,25 kV. The TT21 is more
common,
and differs only by the filament voltage 6,3 V, the TT22 has 12,6 V. The
KT88 of audiphile fame is a close relative

>From 6 TT22's you should have at least 500 W CW output on 500/2182 kHz
if the power supply allows.

Take a look at:

http://frank.pocnet.net/sheets/126/t/TT21.pdf

Hope this helps and 73/

Many thanks to those who sent signal level and frequency reports and
pictures.

Got the 73kHz transmitter fired up at around 2130UTC after the loading coil
problems had been fixed. The main limitation to beaconing is the power
supply. My PSU comprises a 70V home made unit, which gives a maximum of
10amps. This supply is stiffened with a bank of UPS computer batteries. This
works fine for limited sessions on full power or long sessions at reduced
power. It was fine for the T/A 136kHz QSO that only lasted 55mins. For this
reason I shut the transmitter down at 0100 last night.

I will have to get into propagation studies!

Regards,
Peter, G3LDO

Hi folks,

One of the local amateurs detected a MF transmitter on a scrapyard.
It is equipped with 6 T22 tubes from GEC, but we can not find any details
for that tube.
Any info available somewhere ?

I am logging 72.399 to 72.402 tonight.  Noise is higher than last
night.  Probably from the same thunder storm activity John mentioned. 
So far no signal detected.

I was watching last night and received nil here, same tonight so far.
Receiver is an Icom IC-746 with TCXO, antenna is 1 meter active whip at 40
feet.  I also have a K9AY 2 loop system but my preamp is optimized for the
US allocations at LF.  My QTH is about 65 miles south east of John in
Plymouth, Massachusetts FN41qw, on the sea coast.  The Icom/1 meter whip
performed remarkably well last year on the 136 khz TA tests.
It hasn't surprised me in the least that John alone received this signal as
he constantly hears better than I.  He has logged many US "LOWFERS" that I
yet have been able to log.

73,
Jon W1JHJ

Hi Guys make the best of it while it lasts, there is an X-Class flare in
progress at the moment ( 0100z Fri) according to NOAA and the CME from that
will probably arrive in about 2-3 daystime with the LF effects bring felt on
propagation about 3 days after that. So dont expect anything too clever
after about Thurs 29th...more later.

At 0100, still no sign of any signals. The static crashes are quite loud,
and are wiping out the Loran lines. The only T-storm activity appears to be
over 1600 miles away, but in a direct line off the back of the loop. Will
leave the recording running on G3AQC.

About an hour ago (2240), I had clearly received a "G" and part of a "3" on
Laurie's frequency. The signal disappeared, and I've seen nothing since.
Interesting.

G3LDO  72  399.45                -10.0 dB

Only 0.7 dB difference here so if one is seen the other should be as well.

Peter,

That's 72.399, correct?

Not seeing anything there yet, but appear to be in the middle of Laurie's
first "G".

Up and running on 72.339kHz on QRSS, 30 sec dots right now 2130UTC Thursday.
No problems except for the usual one on 73kHz - no matter how many turns you
put on a coil former you never seem to have enough inductance .

Hi Laurie,  My sunset is around 2000.  That is usually a good time here with
no 60 Hz .problems for 2 hours.  I hope  you can start then in future.  I
think i saw you last night but not as well as John did . Congratulations .  I
was looking for freq shift of one Hz from 401 to 402.  CUL 73 de John VE1ZJ

Strangely enough G3AQC is not a strong signal with me either on 136 khz
or 73 khz.
Perhaps the distance between us is critical, or unusual propogation at
the times I have heard his transmission.
Some German and Belgium stations from the Continent are stronger and
much further away, so it does surprise me that he is so strong across
the Atlantic.
I would be interested to hear what sort of antennas both he and John
have been using for their experiments to bridge the Atlantic. Were
others listening or watching and what were their observations?

John asks for details of the Tx set up here:-

This consists of a PLL synthesiser driven by a VXO which can be pulled
enough to produce 1-2 cycles frequency shift by a small capacitor and relay.
This feeds a Decca transmitter producing about 1000W. This is transformer
coupled to a  loading coil and variometer with a max inductance of
6.5mH.which resonates the Ant. The Ant is an inv L with a vert. section 50ft
high and 600ft of top load (not in a straight line) This is all hung up in
trees which tend to absorb about half the power,so the 1000W from the Decca
produces about 400mW at the Ant. and about 200mW is radiated.
 I use QRS by Rik Strobbe to produce the DFCW information.
Hope this helps. 73s Laurie.

I will run the beacon from here tonight on the same freq. ie 72.401.5khz.
Lets see what happens to the propagation.

I will transmit tonight on 73kHz provided I can get my act together. I have
spent the day winding a second booster coil for 73kHz but as yet it is
untested. From previous experience I don't anticipate too many problems -
and I have several hours before 2300. If any unforeseen problems arise I
will post on this reflector.

With Argo set to 30 second dots the screen bandwidth is 72.397kHz to
72.403kHz if Laurie's signal is in the centre at 72.401kHz. I have allocated
myself the frequency of 72.399kHz and I will be using 30 second dots on QRSS
(not DFCW). There is plenty of space in the screen bandwidth for anyone else
who wants to join.

Peter, G3LDO

Dear LF Group,

I would like to try for a T/A signal on 73k, but am somewhat handicapped at 
the moment because I don't have the cherry picker I have been using to hold 
my antenna up. The temporary mast I used the other week is significantly 
lower, and I reckon the ERP I could get is only about 80mW at best. Having 
said that, this is only 4dB down on what Laurie estimates his signal to be, 
and the SNR on W1TAG's spectrograms looks quite good, so might well be in 
with a chance.

I won't be around tonight, but if anyone is interested, I can be QRV 
tomorrow night and over the weekend. Please let me know.

Cheers, Jim Moritz

 The signals did not make it to northern Va. I just got back from checking 
last nights ARGO files with no luck. I did not start until about 01:30Z 
after seeing messages on the reflector.
 John dont feel bad. I still dont understand how my 18 inch long active 
antenna on top of an office building full of computers can work as well as 
it does.

John,

Thanks for the explanation.  You have always been able to explain deep
technical topics in a way I can understand.  Now can any Hoover be
utilized for this application or do I need to purchase one from
RonCoMatic?

You'd hate it! I am as totally perplexed about this as I can be. This is a
very ordinary location, about 0.3 mile from the Worcester city line (2nd
largest city in MA). It's a residential area - 1/2 acre lot, and IT'S NOISY!
I see all these reports from the Lowfer gang about their receptions during
the evening hours, and I get nothing but garbage. After midnight, things do
calm down, and I've done pretty well with unattended overnight recordings.

But here I was last night, copying Laurie like he was just down the road, at
7 PM local time! I expected similar reports from up and down the east coast
of the U.S. Nothing.

So, you're welcome to pitch tents in the limited space, but there are more
pieces to this puzzle than we've found yet.

John Andrews, W1TAG

Shades of the old black & white film "Our Man in Havana" with Alec Guiness?

Heartiest congratulations to John W1TAG and Laurie G3AQC for a fantastic

John, can the AMRAD gang come and camp in your backyard, or shall we all have to

You were visible last night from my start at 2300 to about 0500. The best
period of copy was the second one that I posted, roughly centered on 0100,
and there were "ups and downs" all evening. But the amazing thing was that
you never faded out until 0500. All of the IDs were copyable during the
whole session. I suppose that barring any unusual solar activity, this might
continue for a while.

I will be around during my evening hours through next Monday, and would be
happy to post a message around 0000 as to whether you are visible here, as
an aid to others who may wish to try. I'll just follow your posts about
whether you are operating.

And a couple of the guys over here have asked about your transmitting setup
on 73 kHz. If you could provide that info, I'll pass it on.

John Andrews, W1TAG

Hi All,
Well I have achieved what I set out to do,so would be happy to stop the
beacon now if anyone wants to have a go. But I am aware that there are
others who were looking for my signal, Dex for example.Also there
propagation issues to investigate ,for example why did'nt Dex see the
signal,and will conditions hold up much longer. So I am quite happy to
beacon again for a night or two,unless anyone has any other ideas ?
Thanks for all the messages   73s  Laurie..

I'm sorry (and somewhat perplexed) that you didn't hear anything.

On the other hand, you have come quite close to finding out my method.
Actually, my LF receiving antenna is manufactured by a company called
"Hoover." Think of it as a collection system for very low energy photons.
They are removed from the ether in much the same way that you would remove
dust from a carpet. In fact, to continue the analogy, the bag fills mostly
with things that you want to throw away. But mixed in with them are some
absolutely precious items. The chore is then to dump the bag out and pick up
the good stuff. I have found that when I point my collection system toward
the U.K. on a cold night, I get a higher percentage of that material. An
ingenious fellow in Italy wrote a computer program that allows me to do the
sorting, and it displays the results on a screen as little tracks that look
like they were left by a bird. I then put letters on the screen to identify
which bird made the tracks.

But to answer your question, I think the motor in my collection system is
too big, and none of the photons are making it past Massachusetts. I
apologize for that, and will shop for a smaller motor.

And if you will excuse me, it's time to empty the bag again. It's full of
some junk called "Loran."

I just reviewed my overnight screen captures of Laurie's frequency. 
Absolutely nothing received here in North Carolina.  John, are you using
one of those wave magnets antennas I have seen advertised on TV?  I
suspect so since you seem to be sucking up most of Laurie's signal that
makes it across.

Well done Laurie and John and full marks for Perseverance, it paid off
and I did say in the past it was just a matter of time on both 73 khz
and 136khz, when others were saying it was not possible, and 73 khz in
particular was only any good for very local qso's. Again I would say it
can also be done on normal hand sent CW at a sensible speed of a few
wpm, favourable propagation and the max permitted power. A little more
power like the ZL 5 watts might make it a regular occurance to make a
contact across the Atlantic and beyond.
Sitting up all night every night could be the biggest problem!!!!!!!!!
It might be worth trying during daytime or early evening.

This is really one for the record books!
It certainly justifies the retention of 73kHz and even the professionals are
probably learning something from it.
The chances of making it from ZL to EU having suddenly increased.
IMO we still have a lot to learn about what is possible at LF and it sure is
fun finding out.
If we went to even longer dot lengths, would global transmission become
possible even during daylight hours?
To speed things up simultaneous transmissions could be made on different
frequencies of segments of the message.
Congrats to John and Laurie.
John, G4CNN

Congratulations to John and Laurie. Anyone who has tried 73kHz will tell you 
how much more difficult it is than 136kHz so this is a superb achievement.

It was a product of teamwork, perseverance and skill. What's more, they just 
went out and did it - rather than debate theory. This should be an inspiration 
to us all.

How about some new stations running 136kHz tests this winter? Last 
season 12 European stations made it across the Atlantic. Even I managed it 
with just 125mW ERP. There's plenty of scope for more activity on both 
sides of the pond. I am happy to coordinate frequencies as last year if that is 
needed.

Go for it!

I would like to add my congratulations to the others - nice work Laurie and
John!

Although this feat could not of course have been achieved with normal speed
CW at anywhere near our permitted ERP levels, from the clarity of the copy
at John's end I am now wondering how much ERP would actually be required to
cross the pond under "absolutely ideal" conditions - although having the
persistence to wait for these is another matter altogether! I suspect that
condx would have to have been near-ideal for this attempt anyway.

So, how about 136kHz transatlantic attempts using progressively lower
powers? Just an idle thought :-)

Regards,

Kevin G1HDQ.

Laurie,<br>
<br>
My congrats, too.<br>
Might like to see what your sig&nbsp; looked like &quot;locally&quot; -
I'm only 63 kms from you.<br>
Taken this a.m. just as you switched off at 0712.&nbsp; Time span of
graph about 2 hours.<br>
Spectran gave peak freqs of 797.32 and 797.38 so frequency shift was 0.06
Hz.<br>
This close you were easily audible and sig was S9+10 on main rx whatever
that means.<br>
Rugby TTY on 73.5 was 9+40 for comparison.<br>
Main Rx set to 72 299.0 Hz;&nbsp; 250 Hz bw.&nbsp; CW note set to 900 Hz
exactly<br>
so this would make ur freq 72 401.68/62 Hz<br>

Hello Laurie

congratulations to you and John! I remember that some time ago everybody
were surprised that 73 kHz signals made it over to the continent ... and
now accross the pnd! Great ... (does that give us some hope that our tiny
little German 8900 Hz signals one day will make it further than a couple of
kilometers ...?)!

By the way, despite the fact that your antenna was pointing to the U.S.,
(hi), I copied your 72.401 kHz signal pretty well tonight here ein Germany,
very close to be able to hear them. I would love to conduct a crossband 73
kHz/136 kHz Slow-CW QSO with you soon, 3 second dots would do. 

Best 73

Geri, DK8KW (W1KW)

<DIV>Below is a screen shot of G3AQC on 72.4013 kHz taken at W1TAG on 21Nov01 
from about 0025 to 0120 UTC. This is from ARGO, in 90 sec/dot mode. I tried 120 
sec/dot, but there was blurring between successive elements on a line. The 90 
sec version is much clearer, though there isn't as much vertical separation 
between the dots and dashes. The "799.5" line represents 72.4015 kHz. Dashes are 
0.1 Hz higher in frequency than dots.</DIV>

Dex asks  "is there any blank time between dashes and dots "
the answer is yes, the actual element (dash or dot ) is 120 sec long and the
gap or blank time is 40 secs. The FFT program tends to blur this so that it
looks like a fade down then up. I could make it longer but the trade off is
between readability and transmission time. I think its just about right at a
third ie 40 secs.Actually it doesnt matter when there is a freq transition
ie between a dash and a dot ,the shift in position is enough to separate the
elements, its the gap between two dots or two dashes that is the problem.
One refinement would be for the program (QRS) to leave out the gap when
there is a freq. transition, this would speed things up a bit . I will have
to talk to Rik ON7YD who wrote it.  Thanks for listening.  73s Laurie.

Can the -3db bandwidth measurement of the complete antenna system be
used to determine the Q of the coil?

Congratulations to John es Laurie.   Last night had severe 60 troubles.
Saw nil
     Laurie I can change receive freq in about 60 sec so no trouble to
monitor 136 es 73 bands.  A problem though the version of Argo I'm
using  has 30 sec dots max so I will copy with that
  Peter I saw your email too late will  look for you also tonight

Congratulations John and Laurie.  I have been watching Laurie's 72 KHz
signal also.  Last night I saw nothing.  On previous nights several
times I saw a 120 second line on 72.4014 (dash frequency) but I never
saw anything on the dot frequency.  Is there any blank time between the
dashes and dots?  Will be watching again tonight.

Dexter

Hi John and all.
I will transmit again tonight using 120sec dot DFCW starting at
2300utc.Freq. down a bit ,about 72.4012/3. This time I will be sending full
call sign so lets hope for  decent condx. Would appreciate all reports.  73s
Laurie.

Hi OM
Like I said many times before , one has to rely on past knowledge and
experience
themselves, and on LF learn from commercial operators who have done it
all
before. I have not found anything useful in the COMIC, in fact articles
published predicted that only a couple of miles or less if you were
lucky could
be covered on 73 and 136 khz. Others thought different and have proved
the
point.
For experienced proficient radio operators all that is required is a
good
antenna suitable for the frequency, good operating procedures and be
expert at
CW and appropriate rf output for the distance to be covered.
The coil to which you refer seems to have a very low Q. With 3mm litz
wire on a
suitable former I would expect at least twice the value you quote.

Well done John & Laurie. I know just how much effort (and loss of sleep)
Laurie has put into this project and I am really pleased that it has paid
off. The amount of effort on the USA side of the link must have also been
considerable.
Congratulations to you both.
It would be interesting if this siting could be correlated with some
propagation information.
Is John able to monitor the high power RTTY station at Rugby with some sort
of signal level record, such as Alan uses?

Hi All,
Having gone to the trouble to find out when to listen for these transmissions, I thought I would share the results with those who might be interested to listen for the transmissions on VLF and perhaps on 130 kHz. Though whether we have any chance of hearing the latter in Europe I rather doubt.

Times when the IMAGE satellite starts to descend from 50 deg North (when VLF Tx turned on), within a Longitude range of +/- 30 degrees. (Sri if you are outside Europe, you will have to go to  http://sscweb.gsfc.nasa.gov/cgi-bin/sscweb/Locator.cgi and work it out for yourselves)

      Time           GEO     
yy/mm/dd hh:mm   Lat    Long 
01/11/21 21:14  50.25   -5.73
01/11/24 20:24  50.40    3.86
01/11/27 19:34  50.55   13.43
01/11/30 18:44  50.66   23.00

The VLF transmissions will be 0.125 seconds on, 0.375 seconds off, at 5, 7, 9, 11, 13, and 15 kHz, repeated over and over. 


Times of closest approach to South Pole. 4 mins before this the VLF Tx will be turned off and transmission will start on 130 and 380 kHz for 8 minutes.

Stick with the 120 sec elements. If you are going to send the complete call,
I will probably shift to ARGO's 120 sec mode to allow more info on the
screen. As I recall, the 90 sec screen has the same frequency spread, with
just a slower time scale.

Would it not be better to use 90 or even 120sec Argo at your end to ensure
maximum SNR.Alternately I could shorten my dots, that way we could get more
through in a given time .Best to have the same conditions at both ends  73s

Many thanks for the congratulations. It has been a long haul involving 3
transmitters,and many nights.My power last night using the Crawley club
Decca 200mW !
I transmitted AQC only since I thought that would be good enough for
positive identification,however if necessesary I will go to the complete
call.
Andy my locator IO90nt, NGR- SU818019, hope this helps.

Well, Jose,  ,, ,

We need a little more info, , , , ,
, , , , , , , , ,
What kind of antenna are you using?
What tuner are you using?

I ran into the same problem on 40 meters,
and discovered that I was running a high
VSWR.
When I solved the vswr problem, I solved
the RFI problem.
I also had a problem on my neighbors
cable TV when I ran two meters.
I called the cable company, they replaced
the cable drop, and problem solved.

Not a bad point. Conditions were such that a full call sign should have been
possible. Perhaps Laurie should give that a try. I was running half-hour
screen captures with ARGO set for 60 sec. dots, and that gave some overlap
between screens to keep from splitting the IDs.

Laurie,

Conditions were considerably better last night on 72 kHz than anything I've
seen so far this season. Hopefully, if we can stay away from unusual solar
activity, we may be able to continue the trend for a while. I started the
receiver about 2230, and checked it just after 2300 before going out to a
meeting. It was obvious by then that I was seeing more detail through the
noise than I had on all the earlier attempts.

And I do want to point out to the North American guys that my receiving
location is hardly ideal. Others should be able to better this distance if
conditions hold up.

Anyway, I'd like to thank you, Laurie, for sticking with the transmitting,
hardly a glorious endeavor (whoops, endeavour). There's no great scientific
accomplishment here, but it definitely is fun!

John Andrews, W1TAG

Congratulations John, I dont think that there is any doubt that the sig's
you captured are mine. My dash freq was 72.4013 which compared to your
measured freq of 72.4014 is well within the
limits of my measurment capability.The times at which the signal peaked tie
up very well with Alans earlier plots of CFH, and the fact that two elements
ie "A" are clear indicate that the peaks are very short,the time to send a
two element character about 5 mins.
This of course must be an amateur distance record for 73kHz
can anyone work out the distance for us please?
I will continue with the tests tonight since the sunspot No. and Kp index
seem to be dropping so best to make use of the opportunity.   73s and thanks
Laurie.

Dear all,

I have measured the loss of my aerial variometer with the same resistive bridge which I use to measure the feedpoint resistance of my LF arial (two resistors 150 ohms from the feed point to the "measuring diagonale" (containing a diode circuit), below that one 220 ohms potentiometer and the "unknown" terminal). The bridge is fed by a 3 watts lf transmitter (PA = TBA810AS). The "unknown" terminal is connnected to the variometer and an 500 pF air variable capacitor in series.

At various settings of the variable capacitor (to see the influence of the inner turnable coil on Q) the bridge is balanced by tuning the variometer and the 220 ohms potentiometer. The potentiometer reading then gives the series resonant loss R of the variometer (assuming that the Q of the air variable capacitor is much higher). Then the L of the variometer is measured, and then Q = XL/R.

(in my case 3160 ohms/18 ohms = 175). The main coil of my variometer has a diameter of 160 mm, length 180 mm, wire 1 mm dia enameled wire, close wound). The inner turnable tuning coil is much smaller. As my ground loss is still around 70 ohms the variometer loss is tolerable.

With this procedure there is no need to determine a 3 dB bandwidth or care for any form of loose coupling. If the loss resistance of the variometer is expected to be lower, the resistors of the bridge should also be lowered correspondingly.

HW?

Congratulations to John and Laurie. I make this a new world one-way record 
for the 73kHz band at about 5300km (I will calculate the exact distance 
tonight).

Dear Peter, LF Group,

This is one of the well-known techniques for measuring Q; as Rik pointed 
out, the important thing is to minimise coupling between generator and 
detector and the tuned circuit under test, to ensure the Q is not being 
decreased by loading by the test gear. The way to check is to reduce the 
coupling so the signal amplitude is reduced, say by about half, and measure 
the Q again - if it is significantly different, there is significant 
loading. You need to do this with both generator and detector, since either 
one can cause loading. With very high Q coils, the coupling must be very 
small; the equivalent parallel resistance of a high Q LF loading coil can 
easily exceed a megohm, so almost anything actually connected to, or even 
anywhere near a high potential point in the circuit will really clobber the Q.

What you really want to know is the equivalent series resistance of the 
coil. I usually do this as follows: Connect generator to meter and measure 
ampliude V1. Then connect a series resonant circuit using the coil to be 
tested in series with a suitable resonating capacitor across the generator 
terminals, and tune for a null in meter reading, ie. series resonance, and 
measure voltage V2. At resonance, the reactance of L and C cancel, and the 
remaining Rseries forms a potential divider with the paralleled source 
resistance of the generator (Rs) and load resistance (RL) of the meter. If 
you know what Rs and RL are, you can calculate Rseries:

Rseries = (RsRL/[Rs+RL])*1/([V1/V2]-1)

Typically, The meter needs to measure a reduction in voltage of  10 - 30dB, 
which should not be a problem for a level meter, or a scope. The main 
problem with this method is that harmonics of the generator signal will not 
be nulled out, and will produce an increase in apparent Rseries if that 
resistance is very low. However, this is not a problem if the generator 
output is clean (harmonics < 1%), or if a selective level meter is used to 
measure the voltages. It works well for series resistances less than the 
generator source impedances, which they should normally be. There is no 
other connection to the junction of L and C, which is the sensitive, high 
potential point in the circuit, and provided you know what it is, the 
source and generator impedance does not cause errors. A selective voltmeter 
with tracking generator is the ideal tool for this job.

Once you have Rseries, Q = XL/Rseries, = 2pi*f*L/Rseries

The resonant frequency of  the coil for the large coils we are using will 
depend on stray C between windings and connecting leads, so the apparent L 
will wary with frequency, as will Rseries. So again I agree with Rik and 
Andy that it is important to measure at close to the desired operating 
frequency. There will always be variations in stray capacitance between 
measurement of Q and connection to antenna, so the effective L will be 
somewhat variable. Also, with large diameter coils, nearby conducting 
objects will absorb energy from the coil, and again affect Rseries and L. 
So keep coil as far as possible from ground, metallic objects, walls etc. 
both when measuring and in use.

My 136k Loading coil has 80 odd turns of Decca litz wire on a sectional 
manhole former. L is about 4mH, and Rseries about 5ohms, making Q around 
700. For 73k, another sectional manhole is stacked on top, wound with about 
120 turns of 19/0.25 Teflon insulated stranded wire, which gives a total L 
of about 15mH, and a Q of around 300. The coils are wound in sections, with 
the total turns divided fairly evenly between the 14 slots on the former 
The required number of turns wound in to each slot before moving to the 
next, with the aim of minimising inter-winding C and maximising breakdown 
voltage, rather like the old-fashioned RF chokes. So G3LDO's Qs of less 
than 200 suggest either poor inductor performance or Q measurement errors. 
Having said that, with most combinations of antenna and loading coil, even 
reducing loading coil losses to zero would only lead to modest 10-20% 
increases in antenna current, because losses are dominated by the antenna 
itself. Other effects, like how wet the weather is, will produce similar 
variations. My main reason for winding big loading coils was to stop the 
things melting!

Q measuring seems to have gone out of fashion in the last few decades - all 
the major test gear companies have stopped making Q meters, which is a pity 
because the impedance meters which have replaced them do not cope well with 
measurements on high-Q circuits. Older textbooks, like Scroggie's "Wireless 
Laboratory Handbook", discuss Q measurement at some length.

Cheers, Jim Moritz

I did copy Laurie's 72.401 kHz transmission last night, with parts of the
signal being visible from 2330 to 0700 Z. There were half hour periods with
and without recognizable characters. The best copy was from 0022-0052 and
from 0452-0522 Z. For some reason, I got a lot of very clear "A's." The
"Q's" were more difficult!

I make the dash frequency as 72.4014 kHz. I have sent screen shots directly
to Laurie -- not sure if this reflector would allow them.

QTH is Holden, Massachusetts (FN42ch), about 80 km west of Boston.

Hi Jose,
I used to have this problem in the house and cured it by winding the phone
lead through a ferrite core  about 6 turns should do it.

Further to Peters experience, I have used the same method:-
ie lightly couple a sig gen into the coil (I use a single turn of wire )
resonate to the required freq. and find the 3db points with an oscilloscope
again lightly coupled.I get very similar results with all my loading coils
Q=150 to 200 only.I have also tried the same technique with small inductors
for filters and here find it very difficult to measure anything above 250.
One point with the large inductoras is that nearby objects reduce the Q
considerably I try to keep the coil at least one diameter from all objects
including the bench or table.
Like Peter I have been dissapointed with the figures I obtain especially
when I have seen figures like 600 mentioned.
There was a technique of measurment in an article in QEX Sept/Oct 2001 The
Art of Making and Measuring LF coils by IW2ACD and IK2WAQ which claims Qs up
to 600 and they use a measuring technique which series resonates the coil
and drives it from a very low impedance source through a transformer.I have
yet to try the technique but can recomend the article.
There is another article in the same QEX which deals with the Q of coils in
a mathematical way.   73s Laurie.

Hi Nick,

In theory, yes, but there are multiple nulls of varying depth and you 
probably don't know which direction they're in.. Accurate phase shifting to 
do it is a problem, also. Much easier to use a loop!

Would the steerable attenuation be more useful for nulling out interference than
the gain itself?

Hello Peter,

your method seems be OK, the losser (more loss ?) the coupling is the more
accurate the Q-measurement.
But keep in mind the the Q of a coil is frequency dependent, due to
skin-effect, proximity effect, inter-winding capacitance etc...
So it is best to choose a C that gives you a resonance close to 136kHz.

73, Rik  ON7YD

If you use a larger capacitance resonance will naturally be at a lower
frequency so you will be measuring the Q there instead.  Selectivity will be
higher, but when the bandwidth at the 3dB points is divided into the centre
frequency the Q will still come out at the right value, albeit at this new,
lower, freq.

Incidently, when measuring low Qs you should use the geometric centre
frequency in this calculation rather than the mid point between the two 3dB
points.  ie.   Fc = SQRT(Fu * Fl)  where Fl and Fu are the 3dB frequencies.
It won't make much difference when the Q is in the hundreds, but will be
noticable when used on small coils.

Recently I described some experiments with multilayer coils based on a Decca
coil.
The resultant coil is now similar to that shown in the LF book, page 13 (See
the second coil back) except my coil has two layers, double wound. I had
been advised by some of you that the Q of a multi-layer coil is low compared
with a single layer solenoid. The question is just how much lower is the Q
and how significant is it in practice.
The coil is at this moment being tested with a full kW on a T/A test and I
get just as good results as I did with the single solenoid although the
single solenoid was a much smaller coil wound with thinner wire.
To progress I need to measure Q.

It is quite surprising how little  there is in general Ham literature on
measuring
 Q. I found something in the 'ARRL Electronics Data Book' and Wes Hayward's
 'Radio Frequency Design', although the latter is related to filters and
 measuring loaded Q.

 I made a test rig up using a signal generator (with frequency counter) and
 the Pegelmesser D2155 level meter set on wide band.
 I connected the coil under test with a parallel air-spaced capacitor to the
 signal generator via a variable capacitor. I coupled the coil to the level
 meter with with just a clip on the insulation of the coil. I reduced the
coupling to the signal generator with the variable capacitor to minimum
while maintaining a good signal on the level meter.
 The parallel capacitor caused the coil to resonate at 182kHz . Using the
3dB B/W points (down from resonance) on the meter I measured the Q as 185.
With the variometer in the coil set to minimum the coil resonated at 209kHz
and the measured Q was 167.

Is this the right way of going about it? If I use a larger capacitor across
the coil won't this give a sharper selectivity and improved apparent Q?

Peter, G3LDO

Laurie,

It appears that I've at least got pieces of "AQC" on screen captures from
this evening. Will evaluate in the morning (U.S. time), and let you know.
It's been a long day!

That's good news - glad to see you back again John.

I will hopefully transmit on 135.991 using standard QRSS between 2300 and
the need to hit the sack
I will also monitor 14.043MHz  +/- QRM for any possible feedback.

This is not probably much DX related and I really
apologise for that.
I just find out today that in freq. below 28 Mhz 
(when using highpower <above 100 watt>) I make
a terrible telephone line interference in my neighbours
telephones, they can't hear a thing only my voice in the
phone.
I would really apreciate your help and advice concerning
this problem, mostly if you already had a similar situation
and what you made to solve it.

Looking for a reply.

    Hello Jim and others
Ref your long message and detail. I am struggling to get one amp to the
antenna but I am measuring at the tx 50 ohm output. Why is my signal the
strongest from the UK bar MM0ALM in Scotland.
I am using very modest power compared to the big Decca Jeeps around
especially in the South of England. Perhaps if I measured at the top of
the 400 microH loading coil it could be 20 amps.
That is why I asked where in the system others were measuring the RF
amperage.
I agree there is nothing magical about 50 ohms except one has a standard
for measurements, swr etc. I have always designed and tested at 50 ohms
and NEVER to date blown a MOSFET !!!!!!
Like you say some tuning for max SMOKE with no swr indication have
literally seen SMOKE!!
Again the big Amperage boys are not putting out the biggest signals, can
you explain this?

Pity such a distinguished gentleman did not get his FACTS RIGHT before putting fingers to keys implying that I was only hearing 7 other LF operators because of lack of knowledge or facilities.
It pays to do some research before making a judgement about others.
Now you have the facts straight from the source, publish the details in the said magazine.

John,

My QRO station is currently still dismantled after redecoration, but will be
operational very soon. I will then be able to send QRSS for you.

Dear Mal, LF Group,

At 09:52 20/11/2001 +0000, you wrote:

...What method and where in the system is the RF being measured,
ie top of coil, cold end of coil, at the tx output etc...

It seems to be conventional to measure RF current at the current maximum 
point of the antenna which, in the case of virtually all LF antennas tuned 
against ground and less than lambda/4 long, will be the point where 
downleads are connected to the loading coil. I have my ammeter there, and 
this is where my quoted antenna currents have all been measured - the 
current is also almost the same at the cold end of the loading coil in most 
cases. If there is any impedance matching between TX output and antenna, 
one would not generally expect the TX output current to be the same as the 
antenna current.

...I have seen rf measured at different points in a system and all the 
readings
are different with a thermo couple RF ammeter...

This is to be expected - the current will vary from maximum at some point 
to zero at the un-connected ends of the antenna wires.

.....Some systems are not designed for 50 ohms, and the antenna tapped
  up and down a PA coil for maximum SMOKE regardless of SWR...

There is nothing magic about 50ohms, it is just convenient for making 
cables and things. There is also nothing magic about 1:1 SWR apart from the 
transmitter liking it, and transmission line losses being minimised. Most 
antennas do not have (50 + j0) ohms impedance, but it is how much power you 
get into a given antenna which governs the amount of signal radiated and 
lost. This is effectively what measuring the current determines, together 
with knowing the radiation resistance and loss resistance of the antenna.

...I have also seen matched 50 ohm systems indicate more RF current output 
when detuned from resonance...

No reason why they shouldn't - it has been a common misconception for 
several decades that an amplifier designed to deliver its rated output into 
50 ohms actually has a source impedance of 50 ohms. This generally is not 
even approximately true. For example, Class D designs usually have a very 
low source impedance, perhaps a few ohms, and so reducing the load 
impedance seen by the PA will increase the output - which is why many 
designs have multiple taps on the output transformer to vary output power. 
There may also be a significant reactive component in the PA source 
impedance, and so de-tuning the antenna from resonance can cancel this, and 
lead to increased output. The downside is of course that increasing output 
in these ways may well overstress output devices and PSUs, and will indeed 
lead to maximum SMOKE!

...It would appear that the thermo couple ammeter must be getting
enhancement current (more heat) from the higher SWR...

Provided it is screened from the effects of RF fields and protected from 
other sources of error, an ammeter measures current and nothing else. SWR 
is a function of currents and voltages; so an ammeter will not be affected 
by it.

...Those using other devices other than thermo-couple rf ammeters
might not see this effect...

Thermocouple ammeters have the advantage of being true RMS responding. But 
in this application, where the signal is a good approximation to a sine 
wave (you've got real problems if it isn't), any RF current measuring 
device that is appropriately calibrated will give the same result. This 
includes rectifier-based instruments, and shunt resistors and current 
transformers in conjunction with RF voltmeters, power meters, scopes, 
analysers etc.

The efficiency of an LF antenna is essentially the ratio of the radiation 
resistance to the loss resistance of the antenna - you may also wish to 
include the matching components. The radiation resistance Rrad is set by 
the geometry of the antenna, primarily described by the "effective height". 
Loss resistance Rloss is determined by resistive, dielectric, and magnetic 
losses in the materials of the antenna and all it's surroundings. For LF 
amateurs, the loss resistance is invariably much larger than the radiation 
resistance, and so the antenna current I which can be achieved with 
transmitter power P is just I = sqrt(P/Rloss). In my case, P is about 
1200W, Rloss on a good day is about 40ohms in total, so I should get about 
5.5A, which is about right.

If someone is running the same TX power as you, but getting higher antenna 
current, there is no tricks or magic, it just means the Rloss of their 
antenna is less than yours. This does not mean that their antenna is more 
efficient than yours, since this depends also on what the radiation 
resistance of the other ant is. So for example they might be getting double 
the antenna current, but have less than 1/4 the radiation resistance, in 
which case their ERP would be less than yours, and in the end this is what 
counts.

But once you have got the maximum practical effective height for your 
antenna, improving efficiency can only be achieved by reducing losses. The 
discussions on this reflector show many factors determine losses, and so 
experimentation is needed to find the causes of loss and devise solutions.

In the light of mine and other's experience with smaller antennas than the 
one at G3KEV, I would be disappointed if I were Mal on finding that my 
antenna had a loss resistance of 50ohms. Experience shows that lower losses 
than this can be achieved with relatively tiny antennas, and making an 
antenna bigger will usually reduce its losses, so there must be some major 
source of loss that Mal has not identified. Since Mal does not give a 
complete description of his antenna, transmitter power, method of measuring 
Rloss, any matching devices apart from the loading coil, and so on, so it 
is difficult to make suggestions, but I imagine major improvement must be 
possible.

...so you never know really where you are with measurements, they are just 
relative...

Everything is relative, as physicists have understood for some time. There 
is a maxim in engineering which says "any measurement is better than no 
measurement at all"; certainly I find measurements more reliable than tarot 
cards, asking a bloke in the pub, or discussions on 80m SSB. No measurement 
is ever perfect, but without some sort of measurements, we know nothing.

Cheers, Jim Moritz

Hi Kevin,
Here, Here!
Actually though, you seem to have been away, during a period of quite low "flak level", which regrettably seems to have returned.
My solution for what it is worth, is to rigourously prune the list before reading, removing all input from known negative sources. Unfortunately this doesn't always help, because others tend to reply to it. It can be very tempting to reply (as I also have done in the past) but IMO it is best to simply ignore it and to concentrate on enjoying the hobby. There is a lot of very good stuff and help available on the reflector.
73, John, G4CNN

Dear LF and Natural Radio Observers,

INSPIRE has arranged to perform experiments to test propagation to the ground from the Radio Plasma Imager 
instrument on the IMAGE Satellite over two weeks starting on November 21, 2001. A table at the end gives the 
times for the experiments.

There will be two sets of experiments, at 5-15 kHz (VLF) and at 130 and 380 kHz. The 5-15 kHz experiments will be
performed on the incoming (towards perigee), southward traveling part of every orbit, starting at about the point where
the magnetic field line through the satellite is at about 50 degrees N latitude. They will continue until the the 130 and 
380 kHz experiment begins. The 130 and 380 kHz transmissions will begin when the satellite is four minutes before the
closest approach to the South Pole, and continue four minutes past closest approach.
You could be prime observers for the VLF experiments!

The VLF transmissions will be 0.125 seconds on, 0.375 seconds off, at 5, 7, 9, 11, 13, and 15 kHz, repeated over and
over.

Details of the satellite orbit, both graphical and tabular, may be found at the Satellite Situation Center web site:

http://sscweb.gsfc.nasa.gov/cgi-bin/sscweb/Locator.cgi

and

If I remember my English literature, I believe the expression "Look upon my works and despair" was supposed to have been found on a ruins.

Walter
I did say for space diversity that the more space for antennas the
better but I have seen this technique used in a confined space for the
lower frequencies where one antenna was vertically polarised and the
other horizontal and it was quite remarkable to see the rise and fall of
signals as they faded then recovered etc from each antenna and then
combined. It was totally random of course but effective.
On LF it is more difficult without miles of real estate but for those
with a few acres, and some have,
then combining 2 antennas as above one horizontal and one vertical might
offer a slight advantage.
For small back gardens dont try it, they antennas would be so close that
they might even cancel the signal out!!!!!!!!!!
I agree with your observations in the rest of your message.

THE FACTS are that I have worked 21 countries on 136 khz two way qso,s. and
several EU dx xband with my signal on 136 khz. My reports are generally at least
2 S POINTS up on any other station from England, and include many Firsts
between  the rest of EU and England.
To date I have made a few hundred contacts two way on 136 khz.
Currently the activity on LF is very low around EU and I doubt if any more than
7 stations are active at present.
These results have been achieved using normal hand sent/received CW and not
computer aided visual methods.
I am now CURIOUS about your achievements on LF please enlighten me.

Rik.
I know all of this, you did not answer the question. What method and where in
the system is the RF being measured, ie top of coil, cold end of coil, at the
tx output etc.
I have seen rf measured at different points in a system and all the readings
are different with a thermo couple RF ammeter.
Some systems are not designed for 50 ohms, and the antenna tapped up and down a
PA coil for maximum SMOKE regardless of SWR, so you never know really where you
are with measurements, they are just relative. I have also seen matched 50 ohm
systems indicate more RF current output when detuned from resonance. It would
appear that the thermo couple ammeter must be getting enhancement current (more
heat) from the higher SWR.
I know for a fact that some are using both the above methods and that is why I
asked what methods are being  used by some that are getting such high amperage
for low power.
Those using other devices other than thermo-couple rf ammeters might not see
this effect.
You missed the point completely about what I was asking, and it can only be
answered by those getting these very high rf currents to the antenna, except of
course they are running a lot more power than they admit. I suppose with all
the Decca Jeeps about there must be a lot of high power stations on the air on
LF.

I dont know wether anyone responded to Johns offer to listen last night ?
the message came through too late for me to monitor (gone to bed Hi ) But I
shoild very much like for him to look for my 73kHz signal,however it seems
very arduous for him to have to change  band every 30mins or so. Perhaps I
could suggest that we adopt an alternate night schedule using 30sec dots on
136 and the close spaced freqs we used last season. On 73kHz I would prefer
to use 120sec dots DFCW and perhaps we could cluster close to my 72.401.5Khz
freq which seems quite clear see W4DEX screenshot. Any comments ?     73s
Laurie.

Greetings all,

Sorry if this post is a little off-topic for the list but I felt something
needed to be said. Apologies if it sounds like a lecture, my intention was
simply to offer some constructive criticism on the subject of list postings
and I hope it will be seen as such.

I rejoined this list very recently, after deciding to leave it many months
ago due to what I saw as an unacceptably high level of "flaming" by one or
two people in particular. This, coupled with an apparent reluctance on the
part of some to accept that others may have different technical opinions to
their own.

Having received a couple of days postings since I rejoined, it has, sadly,
become all too apparent that nothing has changed. I see that the sniping is
still going on, and that some are still having to justify themselves in the
face of the technical bigotry / pedantry / apparent unfriendliness of
others. Unfortunately, this phenomenon does seem to be increasingly
prevalent within the amateur radio "community" (I now use that term
advisedly) in the UK in particular.

Technology marches on, and with it the number of different avenues for
exploration - all of which are equally valid, since this is meant to be a
hobby. As such, individuals should be free to explore whatever takes their
fancy without having to endure censure, disapproval or constraint from
anyone else. Indeed, anyone who would seek to discourage such self-training
and investigation does not deserve the privilege of a radio amateur licence,
IMHO. There are many aspects of the hobby which do not interest me at all,
but I would never seek to dissuade others from taking them up.

My impression (somewhat reinforced by talking to one or two acquaintances
who happen to be professional psychologists) is that this apparent penchant
for sniping at others is a particularly British "disease". Our American
friends in particular seem to suffer from it to a much lesser extent. This
seems to be borne out by the nature of the postings to various US-based
lists of which I am a member - even when discussions become heated, they are
almost always carried on in a spirit of friendliness and good humour. Or
perhaps it is just that I have missed something, or have simply failed to
appreciate the subtleties of wit and "drier" humour in this list?

Whatever happened to the spirit of amateur radio and the principle of
accepting someone else's viewpoint or interest as valid even if not
necessarily agreeing with it? IMO, if you can't offer constructive input to
a particular discussion then you should not post at all. Of course, I
realise that this post in itself may be seen as not very constructive, and
that I have therefore immediately broken my own rule - fair enough. I did
have reservations about posting it. Also, for that reason it will be my one
and only post on this subject. I am happy to reply to direct emails (so long
as they are reasonably constructive!) if anyone wants to continue this.

I fully expect to get flamed by somebody for daring to say something. In
such case it will simply reinforce my view and I will feel obliged to leave
this list for good. Some may see this as advantageous, of course....:-)

By way of some light relief, the following page is quite interesting:

http://www.qsl.net/vk2zto/ExpModes/beware.htm

(I put myself very definitely in the "Dreamer" category...)

Best regards to all in the spirit of amateur radio,

Kevin, G1HDQ.

I asked what this synchronous reception proposal was about because 
diversity reception and synchronous reception are two completely  different 
techniques and it seemed to me they were being confused.

Jim M0BMU said a lot of what I was going to say so won't repeat it again. 
But he missed out the very important point that no matter what you do at 
the Tx end the received sigs will be at random phase because they'll be 
skywave with varying and variable path lengths. So, prima facie, you cannot 
do synchronous reception at long range.  If you try a simple addition at 
base frequency (136/73) and they're 180 degs out of phase they'll cancel, 
not add, just like the QRN.  At a fixed site the phase coherency of skywave 
LF signals around 100-130 kHz only persists for a few minutes and even then 
only if it happens that one skywave mode is predominating. Averaging over 
an hour would produce nothing.

As for getting "beams", if you add together a lot of antennas on a long 
baseline (tens of kilometres) whether for Tx or Rx you will get what 
superficially look like multiple narrow "beams" with very deep (40-50 dB) 
nulls between them.  The longer the baseline or the more antennas you use 
the more "beams" and nulls you will get. In fact, an interferometer. The 
problem is that the "gain" in any one beam is miniscule, perhaps 0.5 
dB.  Example - three antennas on a 24 km base would produce something like 
16 "beams" and nulls.  You could steer these nulls by phasing the feeds to 
the antennas but who's going to go to all that trouble for virtually no 
result?  This technique has been used in the past for navigation aids - the 
four-course radiorange; the Consol system, the German "Wullenweber" but the 
object in all of them was to produce nulls and beams to give bearings, not 
to get antenna gain. Together with all the problems of maintaining absolute 
phase stability at the transmitters as well as at the receivers this is 
really a non-starter. No off-the-shelf ham gear is capable of this sort of 
performance even with allegedly "high-stability" options.

Diversity might have more going for it but you'd have to space the antennas 
by many kms, maybe even hundreds of kilometres.  Closely spaced antennas as 
suggested by 3KEV do nothing at these frequencies; they've got to be 
several wavelengths apart (one wavelength at 136 kHz = 2.2 kms) . However, 
if you want to experiment this is the way to go, as (I think it was) KK7A 
suggested.  Set up several Rxs 50-100 kms apart and combine the detected 
results in a summing program somebody would have to write, I don't know of 
any that would do this job right now.  Transfer the data by an MB7LF-like 
relay to get it in real time; internet far too slow for this job (and 
totally incoherent).

Incidentally the Loran timing somebody suggested would not work because the 
accuracy of Loran timing depends critically on maintaining ground-wave 
3rd-cycle selection which in turn means maintaining pulse shape via 
wide-band selection at the fundamental 100 kHz.  The Loran energy around 
136 is totally insufficient.  Peter Martinez G3PLX once synthesized a Loran 
pulse using only 136 kHz energy and it was 8 uS out.  Anyway what most 
people are seeing is skywave. You need a specialised Loran timing receiver 
but if you really need this sort of timng then buy a good GPS set instead - 
it'll be far better.  Fortunately, you don't for diversity.

Walter G3JKV.

It all depends on whether ones personal interest in amateur radio is
exchanging information that is more readily exchanged by phone
or on the Internet, or whether it is research in radio technology.

Presumably one is allowed to enjoy the latter, the former or both?

Hello Mal & group,

>Some LF operators are indicating that they are getting large RF amperage
>into their loading coil/antennas systems for very low power output to
>the antenna ie a few 100 watts.
The current you can push through your antenna system depends on the loss
resistance you encounter. And this is more than just the ground loss. There
is also the loss in the loadingcoil and in many cases also a considerable
loss in the 'environement' ie. objects such as trees and buildings near the
antenna.
Up to a certain level one can reduce the losses, by using a high-Q
loadingcoil and a good groundsystem (radials and earthpoles).
The loss resistance (on 136kHz) can go from a few Ohm (on a metal vessel at
sea) over a few tens Ohm (good conducting ground) to a few hundred Ohm
(poor soil, many obstacles near the antenna).
So this means that for 200W output power the antenna current can go from
10A (ie. on a metal vessel at sea) down to 1A (poor soil, many obstacles).
>From what I have read on this reflector the loss resistance for 'amateur
antenna systems' goes from 20 Ohm up to 150 Ohm.

>I am trying to figure out what procedure they are using to measure the
>rf amps and where all the rf is going because the signals heard on LF
>are low to average around the UK and in EU.
Antenna current is only one thing that determines your ERP, the other thing
is the radiation resistance of the antenna. For a 'pure vertical' (no
toploading) the rad. res. on 136kHz (in milli-Ohm) = 0.08 x h^2 (h =
antenna height in m). Toploading can quadruple the rad. res. (in you ave
infinite toploading), in practical cases toploading will double ... triple
the rad. res.

>My system is designed for 50 ohms throughout and matched accordingly at
>the base of the antenna via a coil with max of 400 microH.
Since the resistance you measure is for 99% (or more) the loss resistance I
would recommend to design the antenna for least resistance and match it to
50 Ohm using a transformer of L-C circuit.

>Maybe most are heating up the ground around the antenna, and the loading
>coil ,whereas my couple of amps are being radiated by the antenna.
Sorry to have to dissapoint you, but I'm afraid that also you use over 99%
of your power to heat the coil and soil. Even with a really big antenna
(lets' say 40m high and well toploaded) the rad. res. will not exceed a few
hundred milli-Ohms will you loss resistance most likely will be in the
range of several tens of ohms. A wild gues would be a rad. res of 0.3 Ohm
and a loss of 50 Ohm, meaning that only 0.6% of the power is radiated (and
thus 99.4% is heated).
But with the antenna system described here and a 400W TX (= 2.8A
antennacurrent) the ERP would be 4.4W, well exceeding CEPT limits ... to
stick to 1W ERP the TX power should be limited to 90W.

>Maybe someone knows the answer.
The above is only my limited knowledge

73, Rik

Hi all ,  I'm finally QRV to listen(look) again.  I feel more
comfortable at first on 139.9 kHz.  I wonder could  some transmit on
135.9 es others on 73 whatever.  That way I could gain confidence in my
receiving set up.
         Tonight 2300Z 19 november I will monitor 135.922 with 30 sec
dots since Laurie won't be on.  I suggest for other nights I will
monitor 73 on even hours es 135.9 on odd hours or else 73 first 30
minutes es 136 second 30 min of each hour .

      73 all de John VE1ZJ

Probably not many.  But in order to gain hands-on experience in aspects of 
the radio art?  Perhaps quite a few!  That is one of the well-established 
purposes of the Amateur Radio Service.

Could having only "all you need" possibly be the reason for not hearing more 
than 7 hams?  Just curious...  :-)

Amateur Radio has many aspects. If it only were to exchange a few 
details like a callsign and a report on LF, then nobody would use 
this reflector. There is no difference between LF-work, EME and 
meteor scatter or AO-40-operation: all need both, operator practice 
and technical knowledge and the fascination to get something work. 

If something has been used for years, it could die very fast. That  
happened this year in the meteor scatter area.  Joe Taylor published 
his "WeakSignal by K1JT" program (WSJT) this year.  My automatically 
written log on 144.370 MHz obtained with an omnidirectional antenna 
counted 24 heard DXCC countries on last sunday, all using FSK441.

What radio amateur is going to go to all this trouble for an occasionl
QSO. At present there are only 7 active radio amateurs on 136 khz. Get
real, learn the morse code, operating procedures, get the best antenna
installed on your property that you can manage and that is all you need.
The rest is just patience, listen and work what you can hear.
>>From the radio amateur point of view that is all that is required,
except you intend to shift vast volumes of radio traffic. The commercial
operators on LF have invented it all and RE-INVENTED it
Years ago the radio amateur was ahead in his garden shed but today he is
so far behind in the same shed, it seems some people never learn.

You have heard of the proverbial sledge hammer to crack a nut, well this
suggestion is like using a JCB to crack the same nut, and for what
purpose. To exchange a few details like a callsign and report amongst a
handful of radio hams on LF. If we were discussing transportation of
large volumes of radio traffic around the world then the suggestion
might have some merit.
All that is needed is some expertise as a radio operator using hand
sent/received CW or computer aided like very slow CW already in use by
some.
One other simple approach might be a crude but effective method of
spaced diversity like using say 3 antennas, one vertical, one horizontal
and one loop and combine the inputs. Which ever antenna is producing the
max signal at that instant would produce the best output to the
receiver.
This method has been used on HF for years and is old hat but very
effective, combining
a horizontal antenna and a vertical antenna. Not a lot of space is
required even on LF if  loaded
antennas are used, of course the more space the better.

Some LF operators are indicating that they are getting large RF amperage
into their loading coil/antennas systems for very low power output to
the antenna ie a few 100 watts.
I am trying to figure out what procedure they are using to measure the
rf amps and where all the rf is going because the signals heard on LF
are low to average around the UK and in EU.
I am running a few hundred watts also and get nothing like the rf
amperage that others are claiming.
My system is designed for 50 ohms throughout and matched accordingly at
the base of the antenna via a coil with max of 400 microH. Others must
have exceptional antenna and ground efficiency.
Maybe most are heating up the ground around the antenna, and the loading
coil ,whereas my couple of amps are being radiated by the antenna.
Maybe someone knows the answer.

Dear all,

nearly two years ago we had a discussion about Phased Arrays 
and Diversity on this reflector.  

Diversity is a method to choose the temporarily best signal 
from receivers that are many wavelength apart from each other.  
Especially when the antenna must be omnidirectional, this is 
advantageous.  The 10 m relay in Hamburg is a well known example. 

Phased Arrays combine several antennas coherently. For an 
acceptable antenna pattern the distances of the individual 
antennas should be about a quarter of a wavelength (as in a Yagi).

The combination can be done in several ways:

1. Direct combination of the antenna feeds as in Yagi-groups

2. Combination after preamplification

3. Combination after conversion 

The first way is not possible on LF because of the distances.
The third way needs coherent oscillators at all wide spread 
receiver frontends or a sufficiently strong pilot signal 
in the LF band that could be used later to make all converted 
signals coherent. Since, in any way, the signals must be combined 
from distances of some hundred meters to a few kilometers 
the optimum choice are IR-links that can transmit the 136 kHz 
bands directly to a central station (way 2.).

The combination at the central station can be done in two ways:

a. Delaying the individual signals appropriately to realize 
   one directional pattern, then adding them and receiving with 
   a conventional receiver.

b. Downconverting all signals in parallel using the same 
   oscillator (which in this case is no problem), digitize 
   the signals and implement delay patterns for all directions 
   you want in parallel by a DSP. This is equivalent to a 
   strongly directional antenna with high gain that simultaneously 
   looks in many directions.

73 de Klaus, DJ5HG

Dear LF Group,

Well, it works for radio astronomers and early warning radars, so why not 
on LF? Here are a few comments:

The basic idea seems to be to coherently add together receiver outputs from 
different locations; the signal amplitudes would add directly, whereas the 
non-correlated noise would only increase as the square root of the number 
of stations, so you would get 3dB more SNR for 2 receivers, 6dB for 4, etc. 
By doing this, one would also effectively obtain a strong directional pattern

The implicit assumption is that the noise at the different locations will 
come from different sources and so not be correlated, wheras the signal 
comes from the same source and will be. However, under reasonably good 
receiving conditions, most of the noise seems to come from atmospheric QRN, 
usually at great distances. So the receivers will probably all be hearing 
the same static crashes, and the noise at the different locations will be 
correlated to a significant degree. A lot of the local, artificial noise is 
connected in one way or another with the mains, which since it is all 
connected to the same national grid, will presumably be correlated to some 
extent too. So I suspect there will not be a great gain in SNR.

You could argue that distant sources of  noise could be rejected by 
synthesising a directional pattern with nulls in appropriate places, 
provided there was not a thunderstorm in the same direction as the desired 
signal. The nulls are effectively produced by cancelling the noise signals 
arriving at different receivers from the offending direction against each 
other. As well as needing accurate relative phase information to do this, 
accurate relative amplitude information is also required, needing some 
means of performing real-time gain calibration on all the receivers and 
antennas in the array. My recent experience of performing about 300 field 
strength measurements showed that a standard deviation of about 1dB in 
amplitude, with individual readings up to +/- 3dB out, occurred due to 
environmental factors, even though the same receiver and antenna was used 
at all locations. Although variations at different locations seemed to be 
fairly constant over a period of a couple of weeks, it is difficult to know 
what long-term variations might happen.

On HF, at various times diversity reception seems to have been popular. 
These systems basically had a number of ganged RXs with separate antennas, 
and summed the demodulated outputs so that whichever receiver was getting 
the strongest signal contributed the most to the overall output. Obviously 
not coherent in any way, but seems to have been quite effective against 
selective fading. Fading is also a problem on LF, especially for the very 
slow transmission modes, so might this cruder approach also work for LF? It 
would depend on fades occuring at different times at different receiving 
locations. I seem to remember we found this was the case during the group 
monitoring experiment we tried on the CFH signal last winter ( see 
http://www.qsl.net/on7yd/t181200.htm). If so it could be done for QRSS by 
simply superimposing spectrograms obtained with the same settings received 
at different locations; it would be a bit harder with something like Wolf, 
requiring accurate timing info to combine a number of recordings.

Cheers, Jim Moritz

Hi all, Judging from the DCF39 data from Brian CT1DRP, the daytime
conditions this weekend seemed to be up on the September average by about
10dB. Some of this might be due to the weaker autumn sun, not giving quite
so high a level of absorption in daytime as earlerier in the year. But I
suspect we still have the after-effects of the the recent geomagnetic storm
to thank. The night-time conditions look poor, with levels barely making the
average, and a great deal of very rapidly varying fading. I think this
probably signals the "beginning of the end" (as someone once famously said
!) of this event. If we do not get any more major storms the conditions
should be back to normal by about next weekend. You can't please everybody
and this probably means average daytime conditions and improved long
distance  (4000kms up) nightime conditions. Reports suggest that you have
been making good use of the conditions this weekend

I have not been activivly listening so I have appended a segment of the LF
spots for the last couple of weeks from my local DX Cluster.

My two-way QSO with VE1ZZ on the 13th Feb 01, with VE1ZJ acting as receive
station, took 55 minutes.

.
At the present time simple systems and weather eye open for optimum
propagation seem to have been the most successful with LF DX.

Hi All,
I have not been QRV for several months due to other commitments. Today I
returned to 136kHz and this is a report of the today's (Sunday) activity.
I had been experimenting with an ex-Decca loading/diplexer coil and have now
finishd up with a multi-layer coil that gives reasonable results - I will
give details in the near future on my web page. The antenna has been
refurbished with new connections and PA0SE insulators.

I borrowed a 73kHz Decca transmitter from the Crawley club and with their
permission passed this over to Laurie G3AQC so that he could continue his
73kHz T/A tests. Laurie has modified my transmitter so that it is a dual
band (73/136kHz) unit. I will give details on how he did this in the near
future.

Using only one module of the Decca transmitter I started the day with 1.8A
antenna current and after several hours of rejigging the winding arangement
of the multi-layer Decca coil and the matching coil taps managed 3.8A
antenna current.

I also did some listening experiments using the loop (shown on my web page)
and the transmitting antenna. I put out several automatic CQs during the
tests and heard nothing. I had been using the loop to null out the Loran and
when I switched the receiver to the transmitting antenna I found out were
all the action was. First of all I was called by F6BWO who was Q5 in spite
of heavy QRN. Later I heard HB9F?N trying to work C?1?RP and complaining of
QRN. The HB9 was R3 and the other station R2. Later I heard OK1DTN at around
S7 (1125) on the loop but he faded later. I did try a call but I was in the
middle of some coils adjustments and the transmitter/antenna was not working
all that well. I heard OK1DTN in QSO with G3AQC and PA0BWL.
Other stations heard DJ8WX and HB9ASB.

I don't quite understand what this proposal is about.

Try this:
The remote Tx sends a steady carrier for an hour:
Both rxs "hear" him for a few moments now and again but at both sites he is 
too weak to be detectable.
The two rxs are added together in the hope that some of those moments will 
coincide and give a 3 dB gain which might be sufficient to lift him out of 
the noise.
Is that the idea?

Re phased rx:

Unless I mistake what you're trying to do, you will have to use some sort 
of phase-coherent detection.  That's the usual reason for time-locking and 
baseline compensation.  This means the incoming signal would have to hold 
constant phase over the integration period. At the tx itself no ham stuff 
is good enough for this even if you didn't switch it so would-be DX-er's 
would have to build a special high-stability driver using constant-phase 
switching, not just plug in the mfr's allegedly "high-stability" 
option.  Then, the path itself is unstable at long ranges 
and  signal  phase would constantly wander as the path length drifted 
because of iono changes.  At relatively short ranges (1000-2000 kms) that 
might on occasion have a predominant single skywave mode you could possibly 
get away with it for five or ten minutes under the most favourable 
circumstances but no longer. At greater ranges there are always several 
modes and you will get almost random phase changes.  To see what I mean 
take a look (if you have the right gear) at a Loran-C pulse coming from 
these ranges at night. Not at the pulse  envelope but phase-track the 100 
kHz signal itself in wide-band (20 kHz) mode.
Also, there is no chance of forming a single "beam" at these frequencies. 
At best, if all the signal delays were properly compensated between rx 
antennas you would get multiple lobes with deep nulls in between, 
interferometer-style. On a 3 lambda baseline, about 24 nulls each side. 
Longer baselines would produce more and more nulls.
Incidentally, without special timing rxs the accuracy of 
time-synchronisation via GPS is not likely to be better than 1 uS. At 136 
kHz that's nearly 50 degs of phase so you could be an eighth-cycle out 
right away.
Sorry to be a "wet"!

Walter G3JKV.

<HTML><FONT FACE=arial,helvetica><FONT  SIZE=2>Hi group,
<BR>I received this from the Amrad LF mailing list, posted by Stewart KK7KA (sn@scgroup.com). Hope the HTM format is not a problem for your browser:
<BR>
<BR><BLOCKQUOTE TYPE=CITE style="BORDER-LEFT: #0000ff 2px solid; MARGIN-LEFT: 5px; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0px; PADDING-LEFT: 5px">Hi all,
<BR>
<BR>Jake's post is quite exciting; it would be great to try those techniques.
<BR>I'm presently in a very noisy location (Paris), but could possibly
<BR>contribute by writing some code to process recordings.
<BR>
<BR>Under ideal conditions, if both Rx locations experienced the same S/N,
<BR>the signals could be coherently added, and the noise was uncorrelated,
<BR>the combined S/N would be improved by 3 dB. &nbsp;Perhaps 2 dB is practically
<BR>realizable. &nbsp;While that's nothing to sneeze at, it's not a dramatic
<BR>improvement. &nbsp;LF is not like EME, where 2 dB of additional antenna gain
<BR>results in a big increase in the number of stations heard. &nbsp;A wide range
<BR>of ERPs, distances, and propagation conditions contribute to a huge
<BR>variation in incoming S/N. &nbsp;So, many stations can be heard with a single
<BR>antenna, but for most of those that can't, an extra 2 dB is not enough.
<BR>How often would it help? &nbsp;Of course, we won't know until we try it, but
<BR>here is an attempt at an optimistic estimate. &nbsp;Let's assume that the
<BR>S/N of incoming signals is normally distributed, with a standard deviation
<BR>of only 10 dB, and a mean 1 dB below our reception threshold. &nbsp;In that
<BR>case, we could receive about 46% of the signals using one antenna, and
<BR>about 54% of the signals using two. &nbsp;This means that only one in 12
<BR>experiments would be successful, if success is defined as decoding a
<BR>message which could not have been decoded using either station alone.
<BR>
<BR>I believe that the above effect could be mitigated by making SSB bandwidth
<BR>recordings at each station, so that the entire LF band is captured. &nbsp;Of
<BR>course, this requires receiving locations where there are no really strong
<BR>local signals to swamp the receiver. &nbsp;One could then search the recordings
<BR>for signals which can be detected, but not decoded. &nbsp;These would then be
<BR>further examined to see if decoding is possible by combining the signals.
<BR>If the original recordings had dozens of signals, the probability of a hit
<BR>should be pretty high. &nbsp;If we don't see any, we can try again using three
<BR>or more stations.
<BR>
<BR>Now for the good news: IMO it's possible, using suitable software, to
<BR>combine LF recordings made at different locations, with no need for GPS
<BR>locking or special references. &nbsp;That's because a superb reference is
<BR>already present: LORAN. &nbsp;Even if individual 'LORAN lines' are quite weak,
<BR>there are a couple of hundred such lines in SSB bandwidth, so from most
<BR>locations there should be no problem tracking the frequency and phase.
<BR>LORAN can also enable precise time alignment of the recordings. &nbsp;While not
<BR>time standards in the normal sense, all North American and NELS chains are
<BR>locked to UTC. &nbsp;This means that the master stations conceptually emitted
<BR>their first pulses on 1958/01/01 at 00:00 UTC. &nbsp;If a recording contains
<BR>pulses from a dual rated station, and the time is known within a few
<BR>seconds, then precise time stamps with sub millisecond accuracy can be
<BR>easily derived.
<BR>
<BR>Bob WA3WDR wrote "If we get a few transmitting stations running, we can also
<BR>try phase-synchronized transmitters beaming in a particular direction."
<BR>This has the possibility of delivering monstrous signals! &nbsp;Because not only
<BR>do we increase our antenna gain, we are also launching more power into the
<BR>air. &nbsp;Two stations of equal ERP, properly phased, will deliver 6 dB more
<BR>to a specified target than either station alone. &nbsp;If four stations are
<BR>used, we can gain up to 12 dB. &nbsp;I don't think that it is too hard to
<BR>achieve the required synchronization, if the transmitters are close enough
<BR>to hear each other via a reliable ground wave path. &nbsp;One transmitter is
<BR>designated master. &nbsp;The slaves stop transmitting for say, half a second
<BR>out of every ten. &nbsp;During that time they measure the apparent phase of the
<BR>master with their local receiver, and compare it with the measured phase
<BR>of their own signal. &nbsp;An adjustment is then made to maintain the desired
<BR>offset. &nbsp;If you have an SSB transmitter and a separate receiver, connected
<BR>to a PC sound card, it should be possible to implement this system with no
<BR>special hardware. &nbsp;Of course, transmitters locked to GPS would be even
<BR>better.
<BR>
<BR>Finally, I believe that these experiments can result in many benefits
<BR>unrelated to long baseline. &nbsp;For example, if you have a communication
<BR>link between two LF stations, one with a powerful transmitter and one
<BR>with a quiet receiving location, it's obvious that you can complete some
<BR>QSOs that would be impossible from either alone. &nbsp;Or, with multiple
<BR>receiving locations, there is a greater chance of copying a particular
<BR>signal; one location might be favored with good propagation or low noise.
<BR>And, if your equipment is all locked to GPS or LORAN or whatever, then
<BR>the improved stability will enable narrower bandwidths, and hence,
<BR>reception of weaker signals.
<BR>
<BR>All comments and flames welcome.
<BR>

I'll try this one again without the attachment. It didn't get through first 
time (too long? or was it the attachment?)
Anybody wants the attachment I'll send it privately.

Flg might be of interest , culled from an old Decca document:

Quote :

Propagation at Decca frequencies. (70-130 kHz)

Signals at DECCA frequencies are reflected by the ionosphere. At medium 
latitudes and distances in summer the reflection coefficient is small, 
about 2 per cent, and the effective reflection height is about 70 km. At 
night the effective reflection height increases, thereby increasing the 
attenuation because of the increased propagation path length, but this 
effect is not enough to balance the attenuation of the signals in the lower 
parts of the ionosphere in the day time. The sky wave is therefore stronger 
at night than in the day time at average and large distances. The 
reflection coefficient is about 25 per cent at 500 km of distance at night, 
and the effective reflection altitude is about 95 km . The range of a chain 
is usually defined with regard to the distance where the wave reflected 
from the ionosphere reaches the same level as the ground wave, which is 
about 440 km at night and about twice that value in the day time .

Measurements of ground waves have shown that their magnitudes are 
approximately Rayleigh distributed. Even if the ground wave and the sky 
wave have about the same magnitude at about 800 km distance from the 
transmitters at night, there may be strong and rapid fluctuations of the 
received signal at shorter ranges, when the two waves have opposite phases. 
This can cause lane slippage even when
a skywave has only half the power of the ground wave. This may happen about 
400 to 500 km from the transmitters. The range where the sky wave and the 
ground wave are about equal is about 500 to 1300 km from the transmitters. 
After 1300 km the sky wave dominates. The DECCA lines-of-position maps have 
been worked out based on the ground wave alone. Sky wave interference gives 
fluctuating phase errors because of amplitude and phase variations of the 
sky wave. This gives rise to complicated error functions in the position 
measurement because the slaves are phase-locked to the master. Therefore, 
there are three different sky waves with influence at each line-of-position
determination: master slave, master receiver and slave receiver. The 
statistical distribution of the errors can be predicted and, for example, 
be expressed as the part of the time the errors are below a certain value. 
The sky wave does not give rise to errors in lane counting until it 
dominates the ground  wave. This happens, as mentioned above no closer to 
the transmitters than 400 to 500 km at night (800 to 1000 km in the day time).

It was mentioned above that line-of-position deviations have turned out to 
have a Gaussian distribution. Approximately, this applies also at night 
even if the measured density function has turned out to have a slightly 
different shape as about 75 per cent of all measurements are found within 
one sigma (compared to 68 per cent for the Gaussian distribution) . This 
also implies that fewer measurement errors are found far from the average, 
compared to what can be expected according to the Gaussian distribution.

Extensive measurements of sky wave effects have been carried out  wherever 
DECCA chains are established, at different places within the chain coverage 
and at different times. Consequently, it has been possible to map 
variations as a function of time of year, atmospheric phenomena, 
geographical position and earth conductivity. In order to avoid too much 
influence by short time effects, the measurement series have been divided 
into time intervals of seven days.

The ionospheric effects are correlated to the sun spot activity which has a 
period of about 11 years. The uncertainty brought about by this activity is 
10 to 20 per cent around the average, which the error predictions are based 
on, and is greatest in winter. The DECCA errors are at a minimum when the 
activity is at a maximum, and this is due to the attenuation of the sky 
wave under such circumstances. The largest error sources within the 
coverage of the chain are irregular propagation and unfavourable aspect 
angles between lines of position. Maps have been published for the 
different chains showing accuracy contours  as a function of time of year 
and time of day.

(end of quote)

The maps referred to here were called "onion" maps (sample attached) and 
are quite interesting because they give the type of propagation to be 
expected hour-by-hour for every month of the year.

YES we have, but haven't done much about it yet!  :-)

As you probably know, we (AMRAD/DARC/RSGB) awarded the 1st "over the 
Atlantic" Peter Bobek Awards last month for a two-way communication 
that took several   _days_ to be completed (between England and Canada).

In addition, we also awarded a certificate to W4DEX for the longest path
reception of a British signal on 136 kHz.

There is nothing that says that we must integrate the reception from
several sites in  _real time_. After all we are talking about dot length
of one minute ...

Hence, if Ham Station A has a  precise time reference (from a GPS 
receiver), receives on a certain frequency for, say, one hour, and then 
ships the received data --through the internet, for instance-- 
to Ham Station B, then B should be able, with suitable amounts of 
DSP, to correlate both signals and eventually get the desired signal 
out of the crud.

Let's try it.  

Our 136.745 beacon (Front Royal, Virginia) is down right
now for antenna maintenance, but should be back on the air within 10
days.

We could then try and receive it from several places, and integrate /
correlate the received signals with time information.  That signal was
received regularly as far as London, Ontario.  By working on a known
signal first, and sharpening our techniques, we could then try and
receive invisible signals (i.e., lost in the noise), such as British 
Hams, etc.

Let's do it and see what happens.

Some thoughts from the USA

Jake,

Like Bob, I am also intrigued by your proposal.

When wavelengths exceed 7000 feet, it is hard to construct directional 
antennas inside a one tenth wavelength box except for a figure eight 
pattern loop or a cardioid variant when a loop and efield probe are
combined.

For directional antenna patterns like we are more used to at HF we need
to 
break out of the one tenth wavelength box.  We could for example, place 
several efield probes around the countryside and send the signal to a 
central point for beam forming processing and other post beam forming 
processing.

One way is to provide long cables to the connect the central point to
the 
remote antenna sites.  This would require a lot of cable and easements.

Another way is to transmit the individual remote antenna signals via
VHF, 
UHF or microwave.  If the system maintains phase integrity, the
individual 
remote antenna signals can be combined in a beam former.

I think your idea is focused on the details of doing the translation and 
transport process of getting the remote signals to the central beam
forming 
site.  Perhaps there are other approaches that could also be used.

In any event, with enough remote antennas spaced far enough apart, we
may 
be able to form some narrow beams that would reject noise and
interference 
off of the main lobe.  I am not sure I would call this gain in the same 
sense as a yagi beam antenna would exhibit.  With LF, directivity is
much 
more useful than raw gain.

Good thoughts and I am definitely not laughing.  Your ideas are
stimulating.

A while back I was interested in building a remote LF receiver that
could 
be tuned and listened to over an internet connection.  Perhaps this
could 
be a remote node for beamforming.  We were looking at using dumpster
grade 
computers and an RX320.  I got some good ideas here on this list.

Keep us informed of your thinking and work.

<BR>receiver, such as described by KK7B. &nbsp;We would use two or more
<BR>receivers, spaced at least several wavelengths apart. &nbsp;Suppose for a
<BR>minute that we manage to build an LO which we discipline to some
<BR>common reference, such as WWVB or GPS.
<BR>
<BR>Knowing the precise position of each active antenna (using DGPS), one
<BR>might be able to construct a long base-line array if all the receivers
<BR>were tuned to the same frequency. &nbsp;
<BR>
<BR>My initial thought was to have a local station (which both receivers
<BR>could hear) transmit an in-band signal with some sort of time mark on
<BR>it so that we could integrate the recordings from each site. &nbsp;
<BR>
<BR>A carrier with a +/-90 degree phase shift each second would do nicely.
<BR>Using this time mark, one could take the recordings from each of the
<BR>two stations and sum them together making a long baseline phased
<BR>array. &nbsp;
<BR>
<BR>I was thinking that if the station we were trying to receive were
<BR>maybe 1 kHz or so away from our reference transmitter, we ought to be
<BR>able to record the I and Q channels. Then, using a packages such as
<BR>Cool-Edit Pro, we ought to be able to sum them together with the
<BR>appropriate phases and time delays. &nbsp;
<BR>
<BR>Has anyone considered this? &nbsp;Is anyone interested in trying it?

Hi Everyone,
I have heard OK1DTN regularly during this week.
Is this a consequence of improved conditions or is Ruda running high power
or perhaps has a better antenna than most?
Otherwise the band has been pretty empty. Plenty of room for experiments
with modes other than CW.

For the weighting elements why not use a binary switched attenuator.  At low
frequencies, FET switches onto a tapped constant impedance resistor ladder
will give you constant impedance and exact attenuation steps and will have
good strong signal handling capability
You can get the precise sin/cos values from a look up table.   Use a
processor (which could be as simple as a PIC) to make the look up from
sin/cos data stored in EEPROM based on input from your interface - voltage
from a potentiometer, rotary shaft encoder or whatever you like.

Dear LF group

Does anyone have an idea how to design an electronic goniometer?

Imagine a "black box" that is fed with two signals from a pair of orthogonal
(for example N/S and E/W) untuned loop antennas, let's call them X and Y.
The output from the box should ideally be X * cos(A) + Y * sin(A) where A
is a control signal which could be a simple DC voltage, a digital control word
or whatever.. Such a "black box" could be very useful for direction finding
without the need to rotate a loop physically.

When combined with an omnidirectional antenna and a phasing circuit, the
resulting cardioid pattern can also be used to null out interference, just like
a K9AY antenna does, but better - with steerable, instead of  fixed, null
directions. My two loop / eight nulls (modified) K9AY is doing a nice job
but I miss the ability to put the null in ANY direction...

The "black box" could be a pair of attenuators with ability to switch the phase
180 deg's. In its simplest form it could be just two potentiometers and two
switches (and phase reversal transformers). This would be OK to manually
null out interference but to make accurate D.F. measurements, precise
sin/cos behaviour of the attenuators is required.


Any ideas? (besides making a "physical" goniometer)

A new one for me this evening OH1BS/Simo. In spite of the very heavy
qrn/static
we managed a solid qso, and he gave me 579. Band activity very low
recently but I do manage a few good EU qso's every week on LF and lots
of DX on the higher freqs. JA and other far East stations booming in day
and night on 7 mhz.
All the HF bands seem to be producing plenty of dx presently.
Someone recently asked how to improve sensitivity on a IC746 on LF. I
find the opposite with my antenna and have to use attenuation. If you
lack sensitivity on any rig on LF - improve the antenna and that will
solve your problem.

In practice we will be transmitting earlier and finishing later than our
local hours of darkness.  What was not spelt out is that the continuous
transmission caters for the Americas and Asia during the times that Europe
is in full daylight.

It is QRSS, using DFCW,taking 10 minutes to send a Q.  We feel that the
advantage of 120 second dot length and computer accessories for receiving,
are needed to pull anything out of the noise on such long paths.

If top band is anything to go by, the tests should be continued for at least an hour
after EU local sunrise, and similarly an hour before local sunset.  Band conditions
usually peak well after local dawn. I remember early October to be the best time for
the G-ZL path, which is when I worked ZL3GQ many years ago around my local dawn, but
openings were a few minutes only.

Assuming this exercise is on QRSS, I shall not be participating myself.

Is there a beacon contest going on. Keep hearing microwatt transmissions
at this qth.
G3JKV has been at it all day long just below 136 khz with his 1w,
workable if he could send/receive normal cw. Has anyone ever worked this
man on normal cw.
Recent news from our man Gould at rsgb, beacons are not useful any more,
there are enough commercial stns active around 136 khz without amateur
beacons.
What is the point?
I copy all of the beacons aurally without any visual aids. This is the
4th heard this past week or so,
they do not bother me but I am curious. Has this anything to do with the
Southern repeater, where one likes to hear ones self. Get a good LF
antenna installed and you can hear the  microboys
direct with out aids. Worked DK7SU this afternoon, he was very weak and
gave me 559. I doubt if the repeater relay even heard him.

Yes, putting a set of instructions on the reflector might be a very good
idea, even before the author has had a chance to edit his HELP files as
was indicated on the download site.  Cliff K7RR

Dick, could you copy me with your questions and replies, pse?
Or put them on this reflector?
Have some questions re Spectran myself and it might save Alberto's
time.

One filter is enough for me as even with two ears I can copy only one CW
signal at the time (I know there are (have been?) professionals who could
copy two signals simultaneously).

I do have Spectran and will have some direct e-mail discussion with Alberto
about some details how to use it.

Thanks to all that have responded to my request.

Hi Dick, hi Mike,

Spectran is ok if u are  contented with one filter.

I do use "SbFFT by KW5Q" when dxing on sw or looking for spurious. with SbFFT u 
can switch up to six individuel/independent filters. 

I don´t know any more where I did get that program. its amateur freeware
running on DOS level. windows or other Betriebssysteme should be off.

guess Ko/NL9222 knows where u can get the software. 

if not, let me know. I could compress it down to a 1,8MB ZIP and e-mail it 
direct.


regards
Uwe/dj8wx

Dick,

You probably mean the latest version of Spectran which has all of the usual 
waterfall stuff, plus a very easy to use CW filter. The frequency display 
shows the incoming signal, and also the edges of the filter which can be 
adjusted simply by left or right clicking the mouse. You can easily separate 
the wanted and interfering signal this way.

Dear LF Group,

Thanks for the reports on my signals for the weekend transatlantic test. I 
transmitted QRSS with 5s dots on 135.9250kHz (to avoid G0MRF's QRG), 
between about 2310 and 0350 utc. The QRN was strong, but as well as G0MRF, 
I could also see and hear DF6NM's DFCW signal at various times, so DX 
conditions must have been reasonable.

After a rather cold, wet evening spent in the garden, I managed to put up a 
temporary 13.5m high mast under the middle of my inverted L antenna - this 
made it into an inverted V, 13.5m in the middle, about 8.5m and 10.5m at 
the ends, and 40m long. Antenna current was 4.8A. Since I have not used the 
antenna  in this configuration before, I took the opportunity to do some 
field strength measurements while the tests were in progress.  The average 
of 21 measurements came out to -0.03dBW, or 0.993W(!) ERP. Using EZNEC, I 
calculated the radiation resistance at 0.033ohms, and so the ERP to be 
1.4W, so the difference between measured and calculated was 1.4dB. So it is 
possible to get 1W ERP with even this quite small antenna.

At the same time, In the spaces between my dots and dashes, I also got some 
rough FS measurements of G0MRF's signal - David's ERP worked out to about 0.5W.

I see that my signal showed up quite well on CT1DRP's automated receiving 
system - comparing this with G3NYK's DCF39 plot, there seems to be a 
reasonable correspondence, with both graphs showing a deep fade between 
midnight and 0100.

Cheers, Jim Moritz

Hi all, as the GIF plot got through the reflector, I will push my luck with
another one. Thanks again to Brian CT1DRP for his efforts in systematically
logging DCF39.

I did not say before, but the horizontal axis is 24 hours starting 0600z ,
and the legend for the plots is the date of the the extreme right-hand side
i.e 12/11 finishes at  0600z on the 12th Nov.
The X-axis only shows the first digit of the hours time (a function of the
number of points on the plot) so you will have to 'count them up'. The black
line is again an average calculated for about 15 'quiet' days in Spetember,
so the normal sunrise / sunset times do not align with the weekend plot.
Look only at the averge daytime and night-time levels.
Sunday (blue) was if anything a better day than Saturday as the enhancement
lasted longer. It is only a pity as Rich said that the static was so high.
Once again night-time conditions do not look too bad, but bear in mind this
(one hop path) does not relate well to two-hop trans-Atlantic paths where
the absorbtion with be 10 to 20dB greater.

Cheers de Alan G3NYK

The noise levels were very high over the weekend, especially on Saturday, 
and the QRN from the storms raging over Algeria was very bad indeed. In 
particular I noticed the evening Luxemburg effect on DCF39 spreading well 
into the band producing S9 noise over the QRSS section.

Managed QSOs with G6RO and G3OLB. Heard G3JKV and G3KEV.

Hi LF-ers...

	A lot of static during the weekend. I've worked only Christer SM6PXJ
and that's all. I heard some stations calling me, but the static level was
very high for weak signal reception. In 2-3 weeks I'll visit my second LF
"two towers" QTH again. I'll inform you about datails very soon.

73 and best regards...

Hi all, I was fairly busy and did not listen on Saturday, but I will risk a
hand slap and post the attached graph to the reflector as I think you will
be interested. The black line shows a average of about 15 'normal' days in
September when there were no disturbances (being that much earlier in the
year, it does align in sunrise / sunset times with the red graph for
Saturday ....just look at the typical daytime levels) The red graph show the
levels of DCF39 at CT1DRP on Saturday. You will notice nearly a 30 dB
enhancement over ' normal' daytime conditions, lasting about 2.5 hours, as
predicted earlier in the week. I have never seen the daytime signals so high
compared with the nightime levels.
I hope you all worked lots of DX.....or did it mean that the noise levels
were intolerable?
Cheers de Alan G3NYK

Hi all,

I just finished QSO on 136,5 kHz in CW with Reino/OH1TN. ok, that´s not 
exciting.

but this is: the distance of 1175 km has been managed with the 10 W HF predriver 
of my new (incomplete) trx.

the program TANT136 says 0,0W radiated power.

I did hear Reino RST 5 8 9 calling CQ . I responded and ..... BINGO !
he received my emission  RST 339.

guess the condx are vy good presently. but nothing from CFH to be seen.

regards
Uwe/dj8wx

Hi Uwe,
   thanks. It is reassuring to know that my receiver behaves
still well :-)  The preamp of my loop is in maintenance mode,
so I have used the 80m dipole, untuned, to receive Jim's
signals, and I couldn't be sure to have copied correctly the
call sign.

Hi Alberto, hi Dick,

I too saw Jim´s "0BMU" on 135925Hz. S/N: -46/-75dB.

On 135922Hz I caught (DF)6NM in DFCW. see attachment.

I also have received a signal, which could have been that of Jim, but I was using an untuned
string of wire (not even 'wet'...), so cannot be sure.
But I noticed that the QRG was 135.925 and not 135.922 as announced.
Is my receiver off by as much as three Hertz (I hope not...), was Jim transmitting
as a matter of facts at 135.925, or wasn't that the signal of Jim ?

The qrn this past couple of days has been severe S9 plus long crashes
and not good for weak signal reception, otherwise propogation looks
good.
Best dx this weekend so far OK1DTN worked through the qrn racket.
I did not transmit last night. There would be no chance of hearing a
weak transatlantic signal through the static if anthing developed.
I checked the band before midnight and again at 0200 but still bad but I
did hear a slow morse transmission around 135.85 khz at only S7. I did
not wait long enough to identify the signal, I would imagine this signal
would be difficult to copy in VE/W or SV8 if it was only S7 with me.
The static is as strong as ever this morning. I am getting my 16 ft dish
set up again for
AO 40. This satellite has great coverage throughout the world all day
and is qrn free with a round trip of approx 90,000 kilometres.
So its back to microwave technology again, pipe bending, helical feeds
and gasfet preamps.
I will soon be looking for xband qso,s LF and Satellite.

Thanks Marcus for the screenshot.Its the best I have seen and very
readable,the DFCW format certainly does reduce the time required to pass a
message,so there is hope for two way contacts over difficult paths. The pic.
also confirms that I have solved the freq. stability problem that showed up
with 120secdots even if I did have to rebuild part of the exciter to do it
Hi !
Looks like your simple coil/loop is working well also.  73s Laurie.

Here in ZL the line voltage (nominally 50) is reversed behind the low freq
ringing as well- lotsa PBXs use the line reversal these days and not the
actual low freq ringing signal- makes for faster call answering. So in total
one has a total transverse voltage of 50 plus peak ringing to contend with-
in our case nominally 80 vac ringing gives a total of just over 160 volts.
Since the A leg is basically at or near dc ground potential thats as bad as
it gets-within a few volts- using locally ground referenced test gear.

Hi Laurie,

nice DFCW signal here around 01:45 UT on 72401.26 / .33 Hz.  Between the 
static crashes, it's just audible on the indoor loop. Hope you make it across 
the pond...

Hello to all DX operators.
I will try and be active on normal cw around 4-10wpm from 2000z
10/11/01.
QRG 135.999 khz plus or minus other active stations to avoid qrm. Will
try and be on all during the night/early morning. All qso's or listener
reports appreciated.
I will also listen on 7030/14030 khz for xband or 2 way hf. QSK working,
just call if you hear me.
Band condx on LF very good at present apart from the odd local rain/snow
storm when the qrn/static gets bad.

Hi David.
<br>Did you have any response. I was interested. I was going to transmit
normal cw if anyone was listening VE/W. I do have a friend near Boston/USA
who is a professional Radio Officer and is getting set up to listen for
me.I have been heard on normal cw over a year ago by a /MM off the east
coast USA, unfortunately he does not sail the route often. Getting someone
at these dx locations seems difficult. The same applies easterly. I have
been heard in EA6 but that is not that far away.
<br>Have been trying to get a couple of amateurs in Cyprus to listen and
get active but because of the size of antennas required and the very low
activity on the band they are not too keen.
<br>I have contacts in other places also listening but they do not have
the antennas suitable or resonant
<br>for the job, so its pot luck being heard.

Dear LF group,

I find myself without a decent "transatlantic" antenna at the moment, due 
to someone having borrowed my cherry picker. However, I will try to put 
something together for the night of 10th/11th - will be interesting to see 
if transatlantic signals can be achieved with an even wetter bit of string 
than before. Does anyone have preferences for frequencies/modes? I suppose 
the bottom of the band around 135.92x kHz would be sensible.

Cheers, Jim Moritz

Well

In Pennsylvania Verizon The ring freq consists of 5 tones
to handle 5 party lines and or 10 party reverse side ringing
( No more ,,,not sure if we have any other than 2 party lines )
16, 25, 33, 50 ,66 cycles was the frequency. When it was Step X Step
mechanical the ring generators were 100 watt motor driven
today they use 25 watt generators and can divide the load between
many generators. Because of timed ringing schemes the small generator
could handle many 1000s of phone ringing, 



All I can think of that used 1000 Hz modulated at 10/20 cycles was pre in
band
signaling that used a tone like this to disconnect the far end of a trunk
ckt.
that was up for testing. I have a nice chrome plated whistle that was
blown into
the receiver and produces 1000 Hz at a 10/20 cycle modulated rate

the only standard is what the telco started out with 100 Years ago

Nice string even if off topic

Hi David,

Sorry to miss such a likely successful opportunity for a transatlantic hit,
but I'm going to be in, um, England.

        Cheers,

In the UK the standard capacitor is 1.8uF and maximum ringing load is 1000
ohms (REN = 4) based on old legacy system.  The actual ringing voltage is
'spiky' at a PRF of 25 Hz.  I'll have a look at its actual waveform tonight
and report back, but it certainly is not that spiky and made up of 1000 Hz
components over here.  

1.8uF has Xl = 3500 ohms at 25Hz  so on a 1k load will be somewhat lossy but
bearing in mind a cable of 0.5mm diameter trwin conductors has about 200
ohms / km DC resistance, there could be over 1k of resistance anyway on a
long underground line, so the ringing margin needs to be quite high.    The
old bells had inductive coils so this probably resonated with the 1.8uF
cancelling out a fair bit of the 'loss' due to reactance.   I have a modern
electronic phone that rings with only 10V on it.  It wet weather once, water
leaking into a phone connection in the garage shorted this capacitor (we
have a three wire system remember) and the phone spontaneously rang from the
DC present on the line,  waking me up in the middle of the night :-(

I notice a lot of (legal) phone accessories in this country now only use two
wires, so it looks as if the idea of a single DC blocking capacitor in the
junction box with a 3 wire local connection to each phone is going away.
The 4th wire used within phone installations here is redundant, but was used
once upon a time as an Earth lead for signalling on party line working.  It
was all a big mess in those days.

No wonder manufacturers of phone accessories tear their hair out over
international compatibility.
Don't we get onto some strange subjects on this reflector !

Hello LF Group,

it is interesting, that if you search an Internet search machine for
"telephone ringing voltage" you might end up at another ham radio operator.
For those of you who would like to know more about the (analog) world of
the telephone network, there is an article unter
http://www.egyed.com/phonework.html, written by Julian Macassey, N6ARE.

both these are wrong.  Go and get a scope and have a look.  The proper
designation of ringing induction from CO to Callee (a telephone term
differentiating Caller [the originator of a call] from the person receiving
the call) is "20/1000"  which is composed of a 20 cycle sine wave modulating
a 1000 Hz tone.

Remember as well the ringing induction can be from Tip to Ring (normal in
North America), from Tip to Ground, from Ring to Ground, - I do remember
that the standard in the UK is different than here.

I did not speak to the pseudo ringing tone provided to the Caller.

A quick reality check, think through the reactance of a DC blocking
capacitor at 20 Hz and 1000 Hz, when you rectify the AC through the
capacitor and power a small relay from the result you are not working with
much of the 20 Hz component.

Hi Peter,
There is a Litz Wire Guide on the site of WireTronic Inc. at

I came to LF from the upper HF bands (microwaves as far as 73kHz is
concerned). My first 2X 73kHz DX contact was with G4JNT on 23/8/97 using CW,
over a distance of 57km. No one down here came specifically from top band
and I had not operated on that band since 1959.

On a different subject does anyone know of the correct designations for Litz
wire. The wire that came from the Decca coils is 3mm diameter (4mm with
insulation) and has around 850 separate .2mm conductors. (the wire count is
an estimation).
Some other wire I have from the Crawley club is 1.5mm diameter (2.7 mm with
insulation) and has approximately 200 .2mm wires.
I am sure I have seen designations for Litz but I can't remember where.

Regards,
Peter, G3LDO

Same in the UK.  Ring voltage is a low frequency bipolar spike waveform of a
100V or so amplitude,  Originally designed to hit the bells firmly, the
waveform seems to have been kept for legacy reasons.  Modern phones rectify
the AC ringing voltage, after it has been separated by a capacitor from the
DC line voltage of 50V, and use this to supply the audio ringer.   Ring
tones are generated locally in response to the network signalling
instructions and returned to the caller.

I don't know how it is in Canada, but in the States, the 20Hz component is 
the only ringing voltage sent across the line to the telephone set, which can 
readily be confirmed by sticking a blocking capacitor and a bridging 
transformer acorss the line and looking at the result directly on an 
oscilloscope.  The modulated audio frequency tones are sent from the 
switching office back to the caller, not to the recipient.

Locally, the ringing voltage is 90V RMS, riding on the normal on-hook DC of 
about 50 volts.

73,
John

Well, that is a choice that individuals can make.  However, it would seem to
be rather polarised that it is "all or nothing" in any pursuit.  Most hams I
know have their own blend of bands, modes and operating preferences.

Oh My, another mistake in my dotage.

Yes, several are correct the ringing induction has a component of 20 Hz, but
it is a 20 Hz cycle of 1000 Hz that you get.  There are a lot of reasons for
this, but the critical; notion is that the ringing voltage peak is from the
120V Central Office battery, 120V and is AC at the 1.414 peak.

If you want put a scope on the ringing induction and take a look.  when you
put a .1 mfd cap in series with the line and rectify the ringing induction,
you are working on the 1000 Hz component, not the 20 Hz component hi.  The
1000 Hz component is what you hear when your listening on the line, the 20
Hz component makes the old mecanical bells jump hi.  The 20 Hz component can
also come in a number of variants.

Sorry I messed this up, very few understand how the ringing induction system
works, and i must put myself in the class of no longer having it down
pat....

I thought a lot of the early operators on 73kHz (long before this new
fangled high frequency 137kHz band arrived :-) came from the microwave bands
where a knowledge of how to build your own equipment, to really and properly
understand what you were actually doing, and carry out meaningful
measurements is essential.   The topbanders just followed along afterwards.


I've returned to microwaves for now, but if anyone wants to conduct some
serious experimentation into modern low bandwidth signalling techniques, get
in touch privately and we'll take it from there.

Hi all, thanks to John for pointing it out, but I got my timing a bit off in
the last report.  The leading edge from the CME associated with Sunday's
X-Class flare duly arrived early on the 6th but was preceded at 1800z on
Monday 5th by a storm (Kp=5) from another event that didnt make the
headlines. This was a little exceptional as it only took 48 hours to get
here where as the normal travel time for a CME is 56 to 72 hours. The result
was that the Kp index hit 8  on Tuesday and was over 5 for most of the day.
So expect this to affect LF propagation as early as
Saturday, and the effects may be fairly long lived.

It looks like conditions will stay interesting for a little while.

Cheers de Alan G3NYK

Bob's local QRM is obviously one of the reasons in his decision, but those of you who
have worked him over the past few weeks will know that he had largely solved that
with the help of a noise canceller.  I understand (though I have not spoken to him
direct) that the final straw was the appearance of various test transmissions
subsequent to MB7LF's establishment.  I suspect Bob is far too polite a chap to
have mentioned this reason on the air.  I also suspect that Bob would not be
interested in making any QSOs with the aid of a relay.

Please note these are not my own views, but the situation as I understand it.  It is
rather interesting to note that many of the early operators on 136 were ex top band
operators.  It seems most of these have now returned there.

I understand that he is in Bromely, which probably in MB7LF range. If you
think
that he would be interested in trying it and someone can provide me with
some
contact details I will move it on to a suitable band and mode for some
tests.

Looks like a good candidate for a  VHF/UHF link to a remote LF receiver at a
quiet site.

I found one of these things locally here once, got a wonderful 5 inch
diameter 80 m loading coil of aluminum tubing with a wire down the center
out of it.

Gentlemen:

Bob Reise says.....

> Make sure that you dont have anyone calling you when the phone line is
> connected to
> your computer as ring voltages can be as high at 140 volts AC

The AC is not 60 Cycle, it is 1000 Hz or a variant near by.  There are also
coded ringing systems that use different AC some as low as 850 Hz and some
as high as 1150 Hz or maybe more.  The peak AC voltage is 1.414 of the 120V
Battery.

ALSO

if you have ISDN (2B1Q coding)you will have up to 240 Volts DC, + 120
and -120 from tip to ring.  These voltages will also occur on some of the
ADSL and HDSL systems, where the terminal is line powered.  This means the
terminal in the home/business is powered from the Central Office.  These
voltages are not insignificant and can give you a real poke.

The 8 kHz to a power of n is interesting.  Note that many of the telco's now
TRANSCODE the regular 64 KBPS, which is really 56 KBPS into two 32 KBPS in a
64 KBPS as well as 16 KBPS for 4 in a 64 KBPS and some private line stuff is
actually 8 KBPS for 8 channels in a real 64 KBPS.  Now you know how those
really cheap LD carriers make their economics work hi.  You can hear in
North America the T1 internal line rates as far as a mile from a cable
carrying the old DC pair systems.

I know the 30 channel European system is different, completely different,
and much of the pairs in the UK are a 4 wire quad that is exceedingly
difficult to get much bit rate out of it because of the way they are twisted
together.

I had a QSO this evening with Bob G8RW on 1.8 MHz cw, and he gave the
reason for giving up 136 kHz as severe QRM from his neighbour's cable
TV.

Just as I think I start to understand all of this, I get more confused!
SpaceWeather.com is reporting that the CME from Sunday's flare arrived on
Nov. 6th (today) at 0150Z, that it was very fast moving, and was the source
of the widely observed aurora. Do you agree with that?

Hi all, there were lots of deep fades in the daytime DCF plot from Brian
CT1DRP for yesterday (5th Nov). The best day for daylight DX looks like it
might have been Sunday 4th with DCF39 levels at CT1DRP up some 15 to 20 dB
over normal.

The nightime levels on this path have not really  recovered yet but there
are short periods of quite reasonable strength. One should be cautious at
trying to relate these conditions to the Transatlantic path, because I
suspect that the DCF39<>CT1DRP path at 1950kms is one hop (i.e.one traverse
of the still absorbing D-layer) whilst the Eu to VE path is undoubtedly 2
hops so the signal must make two traverses through a very absorbing D-layer.
So peak levels will not be so good until later in the event.

There was a massive and still rising (0000z Monday) proton flux from
Sunday's Flare, and the CME from the previous event arrived at about 1800z
last night (Monday) producing very widely seen aurora. This CME will affect
the LF conditions on or around Thursday , but a big CME from Sunday's flare
should arrive by about Wednesday 7th and will start to have an effect on the
LF bands by about  Saturday or Sunday. It looks as though Sunday the 11th
could well be another good day for daytime DX. I suspect that the
transatlantic path will be generally indifferent during this period......BUT
the multipath that is produced when the absorption falls off can lead to
very high peaks but for rather shorter periods maybe 30 to 45 minutes. I
suggest during this period you could throw a little S/N away in order to get
call letters completed in 20 to 30 minutes. If its bad you wont be heard
(seen!) anyway but if it is good you will get all the call letters
over.....just a thought.
( I shall have to dunk the rabbits paw in paracetamol as its looking a bit
shell-shocked after that lot)

Happy hunting

Nothing heard last night. Condx fell completely apart during the evening, so
I'm not surprised!

Bob Vernall, Bob Riese and the group,
  thanks for the further explanations, which make a lot of sense.
I will pry my nose in my telephone line, to discover what 'horribilis' ghosts
are lurking there, hidden behind that reassuring and innocent tut-tut.
I will lightly couple the line with my new receiver, a JRC NRD-525, which,
BTW, seems to be very sensitive on LF, and should something unexpected
show up, it will be promptly captured and posted here.

Indeed a pity. I had some technical correspondence with Bob when he was
starting on LF.

But I really don't understand the fuss about MB7LF. I see it as just another
tool that is available to the LF amateur. It does not occupy any bandwidth
on LF.
And if you don't like it, don't use it.

As a positive effect I see that 2m listeners who happen to listen to  MB7LF
may get interested in LF and join our ranks.

This question has been posed before on the reflector and the answer is the
same: the gas pipe  is also used as safety earth for our electricity supply.
In case of a short circuit to earth tens of amps wil flow through
that pipe. As that is apparantly considered acceptable I don't worry about
my 1.8A of RF current.

They are sending me the figures. I had in mind doing my own checks on the

Just to say that I have heard from Steve GW4ALG that Bob G8RW has now given up
operation on 136 following the appearance of the MB7LF 'repeater' and associated
events.  This is yet one more loss to the band.

I notice that Walter G3JKV has been beaconing in QRSS for long periods the last
couple of days on 137.0, apparantly not interested in having QSOs.  Didn't I recall
we had a band plan?

Hi all,

Thanks to Bob Reise for pointing out that ringing voltage is a lot higher
than S9.  A high pass filter would be a useful precaution for connecting to
a telephone line.  For checking LF harmonic content it should be connected
to an LF receiver, not directly to a sound card.  Further, the higher
frequency content may propagate in unbalanced mode, rather than in
"pushpull", in which case radio sampling could be via a low value capacitor,
to either leg of the telephone line.

But the practical result is still there, that amateurs should avoid
multiples of 8 kHz for weak signal LF DX work.

73, Bob ZL2CA

Jon,

Any update on how we can "heal" our deaf Icom 746's? I'm
willing to try out any mod John might suggest.

Hi all,

It appears that the W95.Hybris.gen virus was posted here.

If you accidentally opened it, see
http://www.symantec.com/avcenter/venc/data/w95.hybris.gen.html

The machine it was sent from is in the UK and connected via
Pinnacle Internet.  Other clues in the header are that
the computer is called "233", presumably its speed,
and the IP address of 212.35.234.187 .  If that's you, check
the above link to clean your machine.

Sorry for the off topic post.

73,

Stewart

I found one of these Osma 'sectional manhole' units at the local builders
yard - they seem ideal LF coil formers and I wondered how I had missed them
before. I had hunted around all sorts of DIY and builders yards in the past.

What was the inductance of your 80 turn coil?

can you give details of the second coil?

Don't know about LF but they throw harmonics up into all the HF bands. I've 
had constant interference on 20, 15 and 10 from one thats about  500 metres 
away for the last five years. It consists of a length of wire wrapped 
around a copper water inlet pipe fed with an IC chopper output. How the AC 
gets through a copper pipe into the water beats me but the mfr says it does 
and it is then supposed to do miraculous things to the molecular structure 
of the water. The dear old lady who owns it believes it works and I haven't 
the heart to tell her she's wasted her money.  Our water here is neutral 
anyway so we don't need softeners.

I have seen these advertised but have little belief in there ability to
work. I should be interested to know if they do

see if there is any residual of 8 kHz harmonics. My lines are analogic,
but
in the central exchange they are, by sure, digitized at 8kHz rate... some
digital
buzz may leak out. 

The problem may be from Digital multi line systems. The trend is to
unload 
phone lines and replace analog cxr systems with a system that operates
at 56 K. This allows for 2 good voice grade lines on one cable pair. This
is a better deal for the TELCOs than running additional cables .They
recommend
locally to keep these systems out of the same sheath as other digital
systems.
They can cause mutual interference.
However there should be little leaking outside of the main multi cable.

Make sure that you dont have anyone calling you when the phone line is
connected to 
your computer as ring voltages can be as high at 140 volts AC

I am on such a system and have no problems other than a limit of 26 K.. I
net access

John, Tracy et al,

The advantage of being able to measure your own water hardness is that you 
can then determine if the electronic softener actually does anything more 
than flash some LED's on its front panel!

I bought one a few years ago and, as far as I could tell without damaging 
it, it appeared to contain nothing more than a bit of LED flashing 
electronics. I carefully reassembled it and took it back for a refund.

I do have fairly hard water and would like to believe that one of these 
electronic gizmos would do the trick, but I remain to be convinced.

Good luck and let us know how you get on.

Rob

That's puzzling me... I remeber discussing about those spectral lines three
years ago
on the reflector!

I will try to connect a spectrum analyzer (or an RX with Argo) to my phone
lines,
and see if there is any residual of 8 kHz harmonics. My lines are analogic, but
in the central exchange they are, by sure, digitized at 8kHz rate... some
digital
buzz may leak out. Differential or common mode? who knows...

Your water supplier should be able to tell you the hardness
of the water.

Digital networking has been around for some 20 years, with A/D and D/A
conversion at the exchange.  Interconnections between exchanges and the
"network" are entirely with digital format, with data rates of 2 to 156
Mbit/s.  Subscribers still think they have an analogue connection, but it is
only as far as the exchange.  The likes of ADSL or ISDN bring digital format
into the subcriber loop, but that is additional to what I was mentioning in
my earlier comments.

I suggest you "have a listen" to your phone line, using a suitably rated
audio isolation transformer (as per domestic modems) into your PC sound
card, and see what Argo indicates around 136 kHz, and other multiples of 8
or 64 kbit/s.

73, Bob

Laurie,

I've been listening, too. Nothing seen on Friday night or Sunday night. The
frequency is much better than the original, though. I will listen again
tonight, though that CME is reported to be taking the high speed express
from old Sol.

Many thanks Dex. for listening. Can you confirn that my freq.
72.402kHz is satisfactory ?
Conditions have been good so I will continue with the tests. I will however
go to 120sec dots for a bit more S/N. This shows up some instability in my
exciter when transmitting dots so I will transmit only  " AQC " this should
be didtinctive enough.
I will transmit tonight and tomorrow at least, hoping that Alans
predicted CME will stay away for a bit longer.     73s Laurie.

Hi Mike and all, I think it is proabably that there was some enhancement out
to 1700z, the flux did not drop below M1.0 before 1800 according the NOAA
Geos plot. propagation would normally have dropped by then and be just
beginning to think about rising with the onset of dusk.

Looking at Brian's plot for Sun / Mon the daytime path was considerably
enhanced (15-20dB) over normal for the last 3 days due to the recent
geomagnetic effects and the effect of the flare did not really show up
dramatically. It may have 'filled in' the normal dip in strength just before
dusk.

This could be due to the strange configuration, especially the central
heating system. This is connected to the gas pipe that carries the aerial
current to earth. But that system is also capacitively and inductively
coupled to the house wiring which in turn has its own capacitance to earth..

I also noticed the irregularities but they remained after repeated
measurements, so they are really there.

Yes, I did subtract the coil resistance.

Hello Bob,
   thanks for your message.
Yes, I had read that explanation on the reflector, but I am still puzzled, as I
live in a small village, and the local Telecom told me that  ADSL will be
available here not sooner than at least 6 months. And when they say 6 months,
they mean not less than 12....
I asked my neighbors, but nobody has an ISDN line here. Just plain old analog.
But ADSL and ISDN can be found in a nearby town, about 5 km from here.
Given that today all telephone lines are buried, I am a bit skeptical about the
possibility to receive the 17th harmonic of a signal passing in a buried line
five kilometers from here. But in my life I have learnt that often reality defies
intuition and reasoning...

Over the weekend, I called CQ a couple of times, but no takers.

DX heard on Sunday, 4 Nov, included HB9ASB (549), F6BWO (549), DK5PT (559) 
and IK5ZPV (a good signal at 559, calling CQ and QSX 3.5MHz). IK5ZPV was heard 
at about 1700 so was the good signal due to the flare reported by Alan above?

Fixed a minor fault on my antenna caused by a cable-tie becoming brittle and 
snapping - never use cable ties on LF antennas!

Hello all,

I just put Dick's data into excel, the trendline says R = 4568/F
Remarkable is that, while the previous data (M0BMU, ZL2CA) gave a very good
fit, there are a lot of 'bumps' in Dick's data.
This encourages my idea that the measure loss resistance is far more than
just the ground loss.

Question to Dick : do the given values include the coil-loss or did you
qlready subtract it ?

There was another X-Class (X1.0) flare at about 1600z today Sunday and also
a substantial Proton event following it. I wonder if this means a good night
for DX before the CME arrives in 56 to 72 hours time. Look out for aurora on
either Tuesday or Wednesday midnight.

The most plausible explanation, as already mentioned on the reflector, is
that the lines come from the sampling rate of 8 kHz used by digital
telephone systems.  There could be several telephone exchanges in a city and
while they likely have stable master oscillators, they are not necessarily
"locked".  Telephone systems still use a lot of copper pairs, covering
kilometres of distance, so it would be feasible for some radiation to occur
for any high frequency spectral content in the telephone signal.

The basic digital telephone circuit has a bit rate of 64 kbit/s (8 bit data
sampled at 8 kHz, analogue audio response to 4 kHz) so this also has
potential for "harmonic leakage" into the LF radio band.  64 kbit/s is still
related to the basic 8 kHz sampling rate, so it could be difficult to
distinguish which bit stream the harmonics are coming from.  Harmonics of
the 8 kHz sampling rate would not have modulation, but harmonics of 64
kbit/s would vary somewhat with baseband modulation.

No doubt the 136.00 kHz nominal lines have come up for discussion because
there are many amateurs tuning a narrow band for DX radio signals, and with
new tools like Argo it effectively gives bigger ears for detecting
sinusoidal types of emissions, even if they are below conventional noise
levels.  As others have suggested, there is probably a whole array of weak
LF lines that originate from digital telephony, and they would tend to be
worse in larger cities (highest number of telephone lines acting as
antennas, multiple exchanges, etc).

The practical application for DX radio testing is to avoid spot frequencies
that are multiples of 8 kHz !   Telephone exchanges are unlikely to respond
with QSL cards ;-)

Hi Uwe,
  yes, our spectra are quite different. And they seem also to differ from what Ko
has captured and sent to me. The only common factor is that at 136kHz there
seems to be a sort of clustering of spectral lines, albeit different from location
to location. I can only say that the spectrum at my location is time-invariant, sort of.
I have always seen those lines, night and day, winter and summer, with no signs
of modulation. Go figure...

<DIV><STRONG>Dear OM,</STRONG></DIV>
<DIV>&nbsp;</DIV>
<DIV><STRONG>After M0BMU, G3NYK and ZL2CA I also measured the resistance of my 
aerial/earth system.</STRONG></DIV>
<DIV>&nbsp;</DIV>
<DIV><STRONG>The aerial is a dipole of 2 x 20m with 11m open line feeder. See 
attachment. The two legs of the dipole slope down from 18m to about 14m 
at&nbsp;the ends and in the horizontal plane are at an&nbsp;angle of 100 degrees 
(it is a V-beam on 20m). For LF the feederlines are strapped together to convert 
the aerial into a T. The top is at 18m; the lower end of the feeder line at 7m 
(ending in the shack). There the aerial is connected to the loading/matching 
coil. Its bottom end is connected to the central heating system. The gas pipe 
feeding the boiler in the attic leads to the gas mains that is used as&nbsp; 
earth electrode. The gas pipe carries the full aerial current and so forms part 
of the radiating system. The capacitance of the aerial is 385pF at 136kHz.&nbsp; 
</STRONG></DIV>
<DIV><STRONG>The aerial without coil resonates at 1945kHz with a resistance of 
52.6 ohms. Would not be too bad for topband!</STRONG></DIV>
<DIV><STRONG>It is a rather complicated system due to the capacitance between 
the vertical part (the feeder lines) and the mast and because of the central 
heating system with its radiators and pipes around the house, connected to the 
gas pipe that acts as part of the radiating system. </STRONG></DIV>
<DIV><STRONG>&nbsp; </STRONG></DIV>
<DIV><STRONG>I used a Wayne Kerr admittance bridge that shows the admittance as 
a conductance&nbsp;in millimhos (now called millisiemens) in parallel with a 
capacitance in pF.</STRONG></DIV>
<DIV><STRONG>I left the C-control at zero because the aerial resistance was 
measured at resonance. Jim, M0BMU, has clearly explained why this is the better 
way.</STRONG></DIV>
<DIV><STRONG>As source and detector I used a Wandel &amp; Goltermann signal 
generator SP-12 and&nbsp;selective level meter SPM-12. They&nbsp;can be 
interconnected so the SPM-12 also controls the frequency of the 
SP-12.&nbsp;Because in this way source and detector are&nbsp;always tuned to 
exactly the same frequency I could use the SPM-12 at its&nbsp;25Hz bandwidth 
position which helped to avoid strong signals&nbsp;and noise received by the 
aerial&nbsp;polluting the measurements.&nbsp; </STRONG></DIV>
<DIV>&nbsp;</DIV>
<DIV><STRONG>The coil has taps after every ten turns. I shortcircuited 
increasing parts of the coil using those taps. (I also tried leaving the unused 
part open. But as the used part became smaller and the unused part larger the 
voltage at the top end of the coil increased more and more, rendering the system 
extremely sensitive to hand capacitance effect).</STRONG></DIV>
<DIV><STRONG>At each tap the frequency for resonance was sought and the 
conductance read from the bridge. </STRONG></DIV>
<DIV>&nbsp;</DIV>
<DIV><STRONG>The resistance of the coil at each tap was found by replacing the 
aerial by a variable vacuum capacitor. The capacitor was adjusted&nbsp;until 
resonance was obtained. The high Q of the coil made tuning extremely critical; 
in fact hand capacitance made it impossible to tune precisely&nbsp;to 
the&nbsp;resonance frequency. Fortunately the frequency of the PS-12/SPM-12 
combination can be adjusted in very small steps and this was used to tune 
exactly to the resonance frequency. </STRONG></DIV>
<DIV>&nbsp;</DIV>
<DIV><STRONG>The accuracy of the following R-values is limited because the 
aerial wires moved&nbsp;a bit in the wind which caused&nbsp;the needle of the 
detector to jump&nbsp;wildly about when the null of the bridge was 
approached.</STRONG></DIV>

After some tests I have decided to change to 90sec dots,this will give a few
more db S/N and looks better  on  60sec ARGO with the 0.1hZ shift.I will
transmit tonight on 72.402 from 23:00utc.
All reports welcome especially from T/A.   73s Laurie.

Bi Bob,
These are good frequencies for me and worked well for Larry's transmissions last season. The Luxembourg effect simply appears as white noise spots, which cause no problem.
The Window to Europe is probably going to be very small, so may be a problem to recognise sufficient characters, but best to start with very long dots.
A bearing would help, so that I can make sure my loop is pointing in the optimum direction.
Good luck.
John, G4CNN

The preference is for ZL6QH to transmit near the top of the band, with 120
second dots, 0.4 Hz shift DFCW, so the frequencies would be 137.7900 and
137.7896 kHz, with stability of better than 0.1 Hz.  Those frequencies are
just a little above those used by VA3LK.
Are there any comments from European potential listeners as to viability of
the nominated frequencies?
73, Bob ZL2CA

Bob,

In Western Eu we have a nasty 'Luxemburg effect' that produces broadcast
intermods at the very top of the band. I think you would be better using
something like 137.600. It depends, of course, on the time of day you will
be operating.

Mike, G3XDV

Hi Bob and team,
There is a strong carrier/spectral line here on the south coast on 137.46kHz
which de-sensitises my reciever. Its possible that others will have the same
problem. So I personally would prefer to see a lower frequency say down in
the DFCW/DATA region  137.4 to 137.6 kHz or even at the top of the CW area
now that CFH is not active.Having said  this I did manage to copy Larry
on 137.789.4 during last seasons T/A tests.
The other point I should like to make is that  the proposed shift of 0.4 Hz
seems rather large. I am using 0.1Hz and even this looks very wide on 120sec
dot Argo.
Best of luck with the tests, I will certainly be listening/watching.
73s Laurie.

Hi Jim, Brian, Wolf, Geri, Steward es All,

chaotic group of carriers just above 136.0 kHz here in jo43sv (SpecLab shot 
enclosed). 

qrg stable, strength fading (loran lines constant). 

ISDN ? nothing similar on 128kHz or 144kHz. no ISDN- or DSL-cables here 
around (countryside). distance to next ISDN-user: three km.
 
regards
Uwe/dj8wx

It was very unfortunate that Reino lost two masts
in a snow storm just a couple of days ago...
The masts just collapsed and as far as I know
this affects his LF band activity as well...
Regards from Vaino, OH2LX and ...Reino, of course

Jim M0BMU and other readers,

I don't think I have a "special antenna" but I have been thinking as to why
it is a low resistance system.

One possible reason for my low loss is that one part of the top loading is a
delta loop that goes over my house roof, and the roofing material is
corrugated iron.  Many years back I decided to bond adjacent sheets with
stainless steel self tapper screws, and earth the whole roof, so as to guard
against intermodulation and harmonics from HF transmitting with 400 watts
PEP.  The earthed iron sheets are far more conductive than soil, so under
that part of my top loading I probably approach "metal ground plane
conditions".  However, it also is very likely it gives me a significant
penalty in effective height.  The other side of my top loading is reasonably
in the clear, and has fairly good earth radials under it as they were easier
to run, as most of the ground is lawn.  At the time of the impedance
measurements I had a multi-wire fan, with 9 or 10 wires in the fan, to give
high capacitance and all wires were at good height.  However, it used the
street frontage pole originally put there for telephone and mains power
reticulation, but I found it very convenient to bang a nail in the top and
support LF top loading.  As I mentioned earlier, I received a "Dear John"
letter about my use of the pole, so I decided to remove my wire, which had a
drastic impact on my top loading.  Now my resistance increased with the
reduced top loading.

So in summary, I'm probably doing well on low losses because of the earthed
roof, but on the other hand I would rather have an antenna than a low loss
capacitor on the end of the transmitter, so there are swings and roundabouts
as to resistance and effective height.

73, Bob

Looking at the spectrum around 136 kHz, I noticed that in addition
to the three stronger carriers already mentioned, there are also
some more of weaker intensity.

I captured the spectrum from 135995 to 136007 at 21 mHz resolution,
at my QTH (Northern Italy), with an untuned 40m wire sloper,
this evening  November 2nd, 23:12 local time (UTC + 1)

<HTML><FONT FACE=arial,helvetica><FONT  SIZE=2>Hello Jim, Brian, Stewart and the group,
<BR>
<BR>First of all thanks to Stewart for the excellent explanation of the stable signals on 136.00 kHz (received it too late to check the next harmonic of 8kHz but I will do that later).
<BR>
<BR>I had the chance for some further investigations on 136.00X kHz on Thursday evening. Taking a closer look at one signal near 136.0 kHz, I found there where two frequencies again, about 63 millihertz apart (my 10MHz-OCXO was not on long enough, so no absolute accuracy). The separation between the two lines remained stable throughout a 30 min observation period (then it got too cold for in the shack at DF0WD). I could not find any combination of Loran lines and "harmonics" to explain this.
<BR>A small screenshot is attached. The slow drift if a result of my onheated OCXO. The frequency scale is inverted because the RX uses LSB when in "CW" position. 
<BR>
<BR>Question to the experts: What happens every 16 seconds (=1/63mHz) &nbsp;in an ISDN net or similar ? Is the carrier phase inverted regularly for some reason ? Or what else can be the cause of the 63mHz gap, which does not seem to be related to propagation effecs ("QSB") ?
<BR>
<BR>Well, not too urgent to solve this riddle; I guess we all can live with the simple fact that it is there, and -as Jim wrote- the carriers on 136.00X have been there since we started on LF.
<BR>
<BR>
<BR>Best regards, good hunting 
<BR> &nbsp;73 from Wolf DL4YHF.</FONT></HTML>

Dear LF group,

I left my PC running last night to record the spectrum of the signal 
on 136.0kHz. The attached image obtained using Spectrum Lab 
shows a few hours from early this morning, which is 
representative, but the spectrum changes slowly and continuously 
all the time.

The signal is received as LSB, and to get the actual frequency 
from the scale on the left, 
f(actual) = 136800 - f(scale) (Hz), accurate to within 0.1Hz

I found a similar group of carriers clustered around 144kHz, but 
other harmonics of 8kHz were too noisy at my QTH to get a 
convincing picture.

Cheers, Jim Moritz

Hi all, the latest plot of DCF39 from Brian (CT1DRP) indicates that as
forecast, that the daytime propagation on Thursday was very good. Levels of
DCF39 received at Porto (DX 1950 kms) where between 15 and 20dB higher than
average between dawn and about 1330z. There where a few deep fades, but in
general the levels were steady. The nightime signals were down on average
but not catastrophically. Expect deep rapid fades at night-time on longer
paths for the next few nights. The daytime enhancement may just last another
couple of days.

It looks like this period of disturbance is set to last for some days to
some. There was an increase in the general level of X-ray flux yesterday and
I would not be surprised to see another big X-Class flare soon.

Happy hunting

Cheers de Alan G3NYK

The beacon signal on normal cw 135.87 approx very strong and the slow cw
on 137.63 approx also strong. These signals have been copied and
identified aurally without any visual enhancements or computer aids.
Computer visual aids are not necessary to copy 3,10 or 500 second
transmissions at this qth.
Get yourself a proper antenna, a competent cw operator and the rest is
automatic.
No need for expensive computers and hours/days/weeks to complete a qso,
which is dubious anyway, considering that some of the participants
cannot remember their name from one day to the next !!!!!!!!

On the subject of large coils I agree with Mal, G3KEV. Back in the old days 
of Top Band (160M) mobile we base-loaded our  6ft (2M) whips with single-
-layer coils and put 3 or 4 taps on each of the lower turns. The resulting Q
was so high that opening the car door lowered the resonant frequency out
of the band. Multi-layered coils were tried but were nowhere close to the
single-layer performance.

Hi all,

136 kHz = 17 * 8 kHz.  Almost anything to do with telephony
has a frame rate of 8 kHz, including T1/E1, ISDN, and xDSL.
The old style carriers used multiples of 4 kHz.

So what you are seeing is not at all surprising.
It would be interesting, for confirmation, if you observed
similar signals at, say, 19 * 8 = 152 kHz (or another
such harmonic where the band is quiet).

73,

Shorted turns, turns left floating, coils within coils are not the way
to proceed,
althought this is a convenient method of resonating an antenna system.
Having experimented with the above methods to obtain resonance, measure
the inductance, then proceed to make a single layer coil that is exactly
resonant at the desired frequency of operation.
If it is found necessary to make a fine adjustment for a very precise
frequency then use a small variable coil in series with the main coil at
the cold end, and with a minimum of turns to achieve the object.
If you have a vertical antenna around 100 feet plus the above exercise
is not difficult, however with smaller vertical antennas where a lot of
L is required obtaining resonance and especially fine tuning could be
very critical, therefore one would possibly have to resort to the more
lossy approach of having coils with shorted turns, variometers or
shorted copper variable loops within the main inductor. One other
approach is to use a suitable ferrite core material, that does not
saturate, to fine tune, this is probably the most efficient method.
The inductance required at my station to resonate the antenna  is less
than 450 microH so I do not have any real problems. With a little effort
given time I could probably do away with the coil, by adding another
couple of inv L's at 32 m high and over 100 m horiz.

... I made the observation that whenever I use my ISDN phone line I have a
carrier on 136.000 kHz (I did not check the exact frequency, though).

Dear LF group, 

I too can hear this - it has always been there since I started on LF, 
and does sound like very weak CW, but is never readable. I can 
hear it at any time the noise level is fairly low, and it is normally 
always visible on spectrogram displays.

I had a look at it last night using Spectrum Lab and Argo at their 
higher resolutions, and it is not actually CW at all - it consists of a 
dozen or so carriers irregularly distributed between about 135.998 
and 136.001kHz. Some of these are rock steady, others were 
drifting up or down by a fraction of a hertz over the two hours I 
observed them. The different frequencies beating together gives 
the "CW" effect

The spread in frequencies and the amount of drift would be 
consistent with an assortment of crystal oscillators on the same 
nominal frequency - perhaps it is a harmonic of some popular baud 
rate or similar?

Cheers, Jim Moritz

Hi Mike,

I have asked about the signal on 136.000KHz a couple of times now.  I think
it was
Ko who said originally it consisted of three signals a fact I confirmed for
myself soon after.
One of the signals could easily be said to be bad morse.  At other times
there are a multitude
of signals in the same bandwidth which just switch on alltogether and
similarly disappear.
I have just put an Argogram on my web site under Field Strength Calibration
since this is
the signal I have used to do the calibration.   

If anyone who has good reception of this signal could swing their loop on
it I would be
very grateful.  At this location it is some 25 degrees North of DCF39.

73, Brian

The only thing previously recorded on 136.000kHz appears at first hearing to 
be sending Morse, but the 'dots' and 'dashes' are seemingly random. Several 
people have reported spending time trying to decode the 'Morse' before 
realising it was not intelligible.

Hi Walter,
Nothing listed, but there is an IMP on 136.04:
2xDCF49-DCF42 sounds like DBF39.
