Hi John,
    certainly DFCW is superior to straight CW for the reasons you mention.
About 7FSK, I said that I consider it not optimal, and, if decoded visually,
I agree that it can be confusing and not adding much value.
But the key stands in 'if decoded visually'. The greatest advantages of
m-ary FSK and PSK can be obtained when the decision is done algorithmically,
without subjective judgements. And, in addition, more robust coding schemes
could be adopted. But, in spite of this, I see favourably the introduction of
this mode, provided that some frequency discipline is adopted (an easy task),
as it marks the rescission of the umbilical cord with CW, at least for weak-signal
operations, where CW is not up to the task. For leisure QSOs, CW will
reign for many, many years to come, I am sure.

Over two years ago I reported on the Tesla coil as a radiator.
I was operating at radio station at Amberley Museum and was told that there
could be some QRM because of a Tesla group who had set up at the Electricity
Hall. I did not experience any QRM so after my operating stint I drove my
car near to where some of the larger coils were being tested. I was told by
the group that the frequencies in used depended on the size of the coil with
the large ones on about 130kHz and the one very big one on 70kHz.
These coils produced some very spectacular displays. I had my old 707 rig
with a converter with me and used a 2m length of wire as an antenna. The rig
was located about 100m from the coils. I tuned around the LF bands while
some of these monsters were being fired up and heard - nothing!
The receiver was working because I could hear the lager commercial stations
without difficulty.
It could be that all the energy was being dissipated the spark - but I would
have expected to receive something.
All these big coils were using the rotary spark gap method of firing the
primary coils - a spectacular display in themselves.

Hi David,

Yes.  The PWMs and latterly 'digital' modulation types put paid to the
Amplis and Doherty's and so forth.  The proliferation of Amplis and
Continentals came about as their original owners upgraded.

Sorry about what is now becoming an OT thread.


Steve said:-

> On reflection, the same could be achieved very much more simply nowadays.

But remember the Ampliphase dates back to a time before the advent of a
practical PWM modulator. Given the ability to control high voltages and
currents with solid state switches, I can't see the Ampliphase concept being
translated into a modern commercial design.

Although a solid state modulator would be vastly superior to the original
valve unit, it still needs a high degree of skill to keep it at peak
performance. Remember the Ampliphase was called "The Transmitter which
Broadcast Engineers loved to hate!".

However, having said that, I take my hat off to the originators of the
Ampliphase system for their "lateral thinking" to solve what was seen a
shortcoming in traditional AM transmitter designs of that era.

By the way, does anyone know of the current fate of the Ross Revenge?

Hi David, and all,

There have been a few 'wet' Amplis.
Big L, probably the most 'pro' of the sixties pirates, had a 'G'.   The most bizarre
was probably the 100kW version on RNI's 'Mebo II', which had two of the mondo
PA tubes per phase;  the rectifier stacks apparently weren't up to much so 40kW 
was a good day.  Of course, there was the 'H' on the Ross.  And one on the 
Nannell, which never saw light.  (Ahem.  I wonder which one you knew?  Anorak 
roulette. . .)

The worst part about them was the phase-modulator itself, which was a 24" rack
wide box full of dozens of tubes and tweaks, with inexorable, continual,  alignment 
creep evidently being the feature most striven for in its design.  Mercifully, 
someone came up with a solid-state replacement.  On reflection, the same could 
be achieved very much more simply nowadays.  But it wouldn't use 807s in the 
crystal oscillators(!);  no fun.

The two carriers were held 135 degrees apart at 'no modulation';  obviously
they swung to in-phase for maximum amplitude and to out-of-phase for 
minimum;  as to be expected the raw modulation linearity was, well, not very, 
but was corrected adequately by copious feedback, detected at the output.  I 
suspect that a measure of pre-distortion was contrived in the differential 
phase-modulator stages, too.

Still, the basic premise of two class-'C's being more efficient than a 'C' plus an 
'AB' was a good one. 

Even bog-standard plate-modulated senders had a hard time, especially on 558,
where the high Q of the antenna system (which made modulating high audio 
frequencies tough enough anyway) persisted in being high Q but definitely 
'somewhere else' in frequency as the boat leaned . . .  very audible on air, 
assuming the thing hadn't ker-chonked in disgust.

        Cheers,

                Steve        W3EEE

Why not using a copper pipe and circulating distilled water (or car antifreeze
fluid) inside it? The fluid MUST be non-conductive! I have seen a kW power
amplifier project for 23 cm in an ARLL Handbook using this cooling system.

What is the source of the jitter here - is it being introduced by the 
stabilisation circuit, or that due to the VCXO itself? Also, I can see that 
it would not matter much for long symbol lengths like Jason or you coherent 
PSK system, but would the jitter be a problem for something like WOLF, with 
it's 10 bits/s?

Hello All
Does anyone know what type of sound card is installed in the compaq
armada
1560D
It seems to handle QRS, JASON and ARGO so far but would like to know its
limitations. I have no handbook etc for the machine.

Thanks de Mal/G3KEV

Dear LF Group,

I have just had to replace a couple of the pass transistors in the Farnell 
H60/25 PSU that I normally run my LF TX from. They are TO3 NPN devices 
marked "TE1912", with Motorola branding, and also T8414, which I presume is 
the date code. I assumed they were some sort of up-rated 2N3055, but does 
anyone have any info?

Cheers, Jim Moritz

Wil.

It sounds like a similar problem to the one I had with my TS850.
As I rotated the "slope tune" controls I would get different unwanted tones
as well as the desired one.
The fault lay with the DDS chips on the "CAR" unit which generates all the
mix frequencies from the 20MHz master clock. You can listen to these outputs
on another receiver and see which one is faulty. You then need to replace
the appropriate Kenwood DDS chip and here's the bad news... they cost £30
each (50 Euro) from a Kenwood dealer and are surface mount!
They aren't the very small format surface-mount chips so they can be changed
with a steady hand and normal tools.
I have had to replace two of these chips in my radio so they are a point of
failure.

Sorry to bring bad news!

A Tesla coil and helical antenna have in common that they have a
'distributed' inductance, ie. the inductance is not located at a single
point as with a traditional short vertical monopole but distributed all
over the antenna.
When trying to model the helical antenna I assumed that it was a tall and
slim structure, where the distributed inductance does not create any
significant magnetic field but only improves the current distribution (and
thus radiation resistance) of the antenna. So even though it look like a
coil it is an 'electrical' antenna.
I assume that a typical tesla coil is a rather short and fat structure. I
am not sure that in this case the magnetic field can be ignored, compared
to the electric field. And since a Tesla coil has rather small dimensions -
compared to other LF transmitting antennas - I'm afraid that it will have a
very low efficiency.
BUT ... since you have the Tesla coil available I would certainly recommend
to do some tests (that's what all the fun is about).

Just returned from a holiday to find over 200 msgs on email and doubt if
I will have time to read them all except a few of the technical topics.
Fortunately the gales did not damage the antenna installation.
Not sure what is happening on the TA scene but will catch up on the news
later. Now off to plant some trees and emails and radio will have to
wait for later.

Dear group

I have problems listening on LF the last weeks.
My TS850s is providing me with "aurora"-like hissing sounds instead of clear
tones as I try to copy cw stations.
Using it for transmitting I get reports like 596 indicating that the
problems occurs also in transmitting mode.
I have been busy trying to find the problem but without success.
Is there anybody in the group who recognizes this description and has found
a solution for this problem?

Hi Rich, I am afraid that in my opinion the propagation conditions on 160m
and LF are completely different. There may be some features that are the
same but (and I may be wrong here) I believe that long distance 160m is
mainly propagated by F layer reflection whereas LF does not penetrate the
E-layer. Most LF propagation seems to be by 'reflection' from the bottom of
the E-layer (at night) or from the lower regions of enhanced ionisation in
the D-layer (daytime).

Since early December, there has been evident in Brian's (CT1DRP) plots of
DCF39 that there has been enhanced daytime signals (6 to 10dB above the
average for early September ), and depressed night-time signals. These have
been confirmed by occasional plots of CFH from my location, when It has
appeared. The usual cause of the conditions described has been ions injected
into to D-layer by the big geomagnetic storms. The after-effects of the
storm can last up to 20 days, before, I presume, these energetic ions decay.
The strange situation at present is that there has been little geomagnetic
activity since late November to early December and yet the conditions at
night has stayed depressed. There is a sign this morning that things are
getting back to normal as I logged a carrier on 137,010 or there abouts
which I assume is CFH. The overnight levels were better than they have been
recently but there is still a lot of deep fading. These condition usually
indicate the end of a propagation even and a return to 'normal' conditions.
The fact that the carrier is still strong here at 1000z suggests that we are
not fully clear of the ions that give enhanced day-time conditions yet. This
enhacement of ionisation in the D-layer would also give increased absorption
of 160m signals, but I guess the Hawaii station was talking about night-time
paths.

That just about sums it up.  A short fat monopole will give the sort of
performance of a ....well... a short fat monopole !  Better than a short
thin one, but still not very good.

I am always unconvinced when someone comes along and claims to have
reinvented or bettered something that has worked for years - simply by
juggling a few equations.  Could be skeptical and say it is because they
don't actually understand the real underlying theory, just the sqiggly maths
(*) behind it, but that would be very rude so I won't :-(

Andy  'JNT 

ps.  Squiggly Maths was a term coined by someone at work here to describe
the contents of the average communications theory text book, or any other
subject for that matter.   Full of curved lines, curly brackets, Greek
letters and little realism.

Jim,
    thanks for the explanation. I hadn't realized you were talking of
a bridge configuration. I thought that a single totem pole were used,
and so I could not figure how it was possible to drive it with 0 degrees
phase.

Hi Alberto,

Ask these guys what would be the dimensions of a 1% efficiency EH antenna,
maybe more convenient.
I'm sure most of us could live with 1% efficiency, meaning that you get 1
Watt ERP with no more than 100W TX power.
Apart from that I have serious doubts that a EH antenna works the way the
inventors claim (combining separately generated E and H fields to a
'radiating' EH field). Maybe it no more than a very funny looking short and
fat monopole.

Hi LF-ers...

	Info by Lee KH6BZF, well knowing expert for the conditions
forecast....between 30.1. and 2.2.2002 will be extremely good propagations
on 160m. It sounds good. Maybe the coherence between 160m and LF
propagations is possible.

You are right. I didn't think of that... I did a little trig math and came to the same
conclusion. Looking only at the first term of the Fourier series, the fundamental
frequency, the voltage difference between the totem pole midpoints is

cos(wt) - cos(wt+p)    (assuming a supply voltage of 1V...)

where w=2*pi*f and p is the phase difference between the totem poles.

Knowing that cos(a) - cos(b) = -2 * sin ((a+b)/2) * sin ((a-b)/2), I inserted
wt and wt+p and got

-2 * sin (wt + p/2) * sin (p/2)

The first sin(...) is the "oscillating part" and the second sin(...) is the amplitude.
It is evident from "wt + p/2" that the phase of the resulting signal is shifted
0..90 deg's as the totem pole phase diff' goes from 0..180 deg's (or perhaps
the other way around, I don't care about signs right now, phase is a relative
thing). The amplitude is indeed a function of sin (p/2) as Claudio, IN3OTD,
wrote yesterday. I can't see why an amplitude -> phase lookup table should
be such a nightmare? I think that this could work well if the series resonant
tank is given some more of vitamin Q, less C / more L.

I have the feeling that MOSFETs are probably better than bipolars in this case
since the transistors will (probably) be exposed to "backward currents"
somewhere in the cycle, even in the R+j0 tuned case. MOSFETs will happily
conduct backwards in the "ON state" while bipolar transistors in totem poles
need "antiparallel" diodes with increased losses as result.

(Yes, I am obsessed by the thought of 100% efficiency ;-)

Yes, keeping the sparks from flying  is one major concern i was having. I
had a primary coil that resonated very well at 138 KHz, but I never finished
making a secondary coil. Other than a Large globe atop a large secondary
coil, has anyone else found a way to keep it from arcing?

  Second question, should we try to drive it with high voltage (400 to 1200
volts and very little current) or should we drive it with low voltage (12 to
24 volts and 10 to 40 amps). The primary coil I was using would withstand 12
volts and 30 amps, I cooked it when I went to 37 amps.

  Third question, For all you LF antenna guru's. should I use stranded or
solid copper, steel, or aluminum wire. I know each one has good and bad, but
what have you all had better luck with?

  I have thought about keeping the primary coil in mineral oil for heat
dissipation, any suggestions about cooling of the primary? What do you all
use to keep your LF antennas cool?

Dear Tom, LF group,

Well, occasionally I have inadvertently used my LF antenna as a Tesla coil
:-) But seriously, The Tesla coil is essentially a helical antenna (see
ON7YD's LF antenna web pages  http://www.qsl.net/on7yd/136ant.htm ). So if
it is several metres tall, and you can persuade it to resonate on 136kHz,
it might make a usable LFantenna. Of course, you would want to avoid the

Dear Alberto, LF Group,

  "Totem pole" = 2 transistors in series with the top one connected to +ve 
supply rail, the bottom transistor connected to the -ve rail, and the 
output taken from the connection between the two transistors; also called 
complementary push-pull and similar things. Examples are TTL and CMOS 
outputs, most transistor audio PAs, and of course the Decca PAs

The discussion so far relates to a "full bridge" output stage, 2 totem 
poles with the load connected between the two outputs. As Alberto points 
out, both transistors in the same totem pole must not be switched on at the 
same time, or they will short out the supply, called cross-conduction or 
"shoot through". But provided in one totem pole, transistor 1 is always off 
while transistor 2 is on, and vice-versa, or both transistors are off, no 
shoot-through will occur. In the Decca, the two totem poles are always 
driven 180degrees out of phase from each other. However, the two totem 
poles could be driven with any relative phase because the impedance of the 
load limits the possible current flow between the two outputs, and this 
leaves several possible combinations of duty cycle and relative phase which 
could be used to vary the power going into the load.

interestingly, changing the phase to produce amplitude modulation was the
approach RCA followed in the 1960's with their "ampliphase" AM medium-wave and
short-wave transmitters

I am not familiar with that totem pole scheme, but, isn't it dangerous to
drive a totem pole with 0 degrees ? Wouldn't both the Fet (transistors,
whatever) be brought in conduction state at the same time ? Or is there
a current limiting device ?  Just curious...

Dear Tom, LF group,

Well, occasionally I have inadvertently used my LF antenna as a Tesla coil 
:-) But seriously, The Tesla coil is essentially a helical antenna (see 
ON7YD's LF antenna web pages  http://www.qsl.net/on7yd/136ant.htm ). So if 
it is several metres tall, and you can persuade it to resonate on 136kHz, 
it might make a usable LFantenna. Of course, you would want to avoid the 
discharges that occur in the normal Tesla coil mode of operation, since 
these generate QRM and absorb lots of RF power.

Dear Johan, LF Group,

Yes, It will - I hadn't thought of it quite like that before...If you have 
4 output devices in a bridge configuration, there are many different ways 
of driving them! Of course, any waveform that is symmetrical will have no 
even order harmonics.

It would take a little care to implement though; if the drive to only one 
of the totem poles was varied in phase, changing the output amplitude would 
also change the output phase, introducing up to 90 degrees unwanted 
additional phase modulation into the signal. This could be avoided by 
shifting the phase of both drive signals by equal and opposite amounts.

Hello,
  I have not experimented in a while with my partially built tesla coil, but
has anyone used their Tesla coil as an antenna for ELF or other Freqs? If we
try to use it for 137 KHz how do you determine ERP?

  I had one I was building a few years ago using a 555 timer as an
oscillator with a buffer. Followed by a Darlington pair diving a pair of
power transistors. never got past the primary coil, due to frying the
primary wire with too much current (i.e. too small of a current limiting
resister and too much drive).

I don't understand this... Perhaps I am missing something, but as far as I can see,
the waveform *will* be symmetrical if the drive to each totem pole has a 50/50 duty
cycle and the modulation is done only by varying the phase between the totem pole
drivers 0 - 180 degrees. For example, with 90 degrees shift it looks like this:

0, +1, 0, -1, 0, +1, 0, -1...

Curiousity made me write a simple program to simulate the signal. The program
generated an audio file containing the difference between two 50/50 square waves.
It starts with the two waves at 180 degrees. The phase difference is then gradually
reduced to zero at the end of the file.

The file was analysed whith Spectrogram - there was no sign of any even harmonic!

(This was easier than doing Fourier calculations :-)

As expected, the level of 3*F approaches that of 1*F when the phase shift
approaches zero.

As Andy mentioned, the fundamental voltage / phase ratio seems *very*
non-linear.

... I copied your signals perfectly her in Northern Germany. I myself was
not able to transmit due to the same reasons as Wolf, the storm caused
heavy movement of my antenne, pushing some of the top load radials against
other objects so that I could not tune properly. After the strom this night
it looks that I have to do some major repair work ... lots of radials and
guy wires are caught in places where they are not supposed to be ...

Dear LF Group,

Many thanks to DL4YHF for the speedy software update; I hope to do some 
tests on PSK31 some time in the next few days.

About using BPSK modulation with the Decca TX:-

The phase keying can easily be done using an EXOR gate in my case, or a 
system such as G0MRF/SM6LKM's DDS board. The problem here is of course that 
the abrupt phase transitions with a constant-amplitude output from a class 
D PA like the Decca cause horrendous key clicks, which when running ERP up 
to 1W would cause serious QRM over several hundred Hz of the band - I tried 
it with a low-level signal; it really is bad! To get round this, the TX is 
also amplitude modulated with a half-sinusoidal envelope which ramps the 
output down to zero before the phase transition occurs, then ramps it back 
up again, which gives a well defined bandwidth. The modulator is basically 
a big series linear regulator that controls the supply voltage to the PA. 
This sounds like a headache from the point of view of efficiency, but 
actually the regulator only dissipates about 150W with 1.2kW PEP BPSK 
output, and the overall efficiency is still around 80%.

The modulation envelope is generated by a circuit that looks for 
transitions in the PSK data, and when one occurs it generates a piecewise 
approximation to the sine envelope, which is filtered and used by the 
modulator/regulator as a reference voltage. The phase data is also delayed 
by half a symbol period before going into the EXOR modulator, so the 
amplitude has time to ramp down to zero before the phase transition occurs. 
The result is a very clean BPSK signal that I used successfully for 
COHERENT and WOLF mode tests last winter.

The envelope generator is a rather long-winded thing with about a dozen 
logic and linear IC's, but could easily be made using a PIC with D/A 
converter - or DL4YHF's suggestion of generating this on the sound card 
could be used. The Modulator/Regulator has 8 MOSFETs on a big heatsink - I 
also use it for CW keying, and it provides PSU overload protection too.

About other methods of generating BPSK:-

I tried some experiments with a scheme similar to that suggested by Johan - 
The problem with this is that, while the square wave output contains 
essentially no even harmonics, as soon as you change the duty cycle, or the 
relative phase of the two totem pole outputs, a strong second harmonic 
component appears. This is much more difficult to filter out of the TX 
output than the third and higher harmonics, requiring excessive high Q in 
the tank circuit and/or a low-pass filter with a very sharp and accurate 
cut-off. I think it is possible to use PWM to achieve output control, but 
the output waveform must be kept symmetrical.

You could of course use a separate PWM regulator to control the PA supply, 
but this would be quite a difficult project at the 1.2kW level, with 
significant noise and intermodulation problems possible, and the overall TX 
efficiency would not be that much better than the linear modulator. I think 
G4JNT has a PWM circuit in the LF Handbook.

Another approach is to use "variable phase" modulation, ie. ramping the 
phase slowly from 0 to 180 instead of an abrupt transition. This does 
certainly work, although I'm not sure if it would impair the performance of 
the signal under weak signal conditions. You can see my experimental 
variable phase modulator circuit on G3YXM's "features" web pages.

There is also a linear modulator circuit on 'YXM's site - this works 
perfectly well, but obviously requires a linear PA.

The conventional approach to generating BPSK is to use a DSP device such as 
a PC and sound card to generate the modulated signal with an audio carrier 
frequency, and then use an SSB TX to linearly translate this to 136k or 
wherever. However, poor sound card sampling rate accuracy caused a lot of 
problems with WOLF, and getting rid of the sound card altogether was a big 
improvement. Also, I didn't have a suitable SSB TX. The same undoubtedly 
applies to other "slow" digital modes, such as Andy's coherent PSK 
experiments. However, the timing requirements for PSK31 are much less 
critical, and so the sound card should be perfectly OK for this.

Cheers, Jim Moritz

Dear Alberto, LF group,

By the time my "guests" had gone and I had fixed the antenna, it was 1545 
on Sunday afternoon - I transmitted a Jason92 signal from then until about 
1815 on 137.500kHz, but I guess you must have been on the way home by 
then... Sorry about that, hope there will be other opportunities soon.

Hi all, I have had some more recent discussions with Vaino, OH2LX, on the
effect and have several maps of his observations, which centre mainly around
a high power Polish LF station. Victim stations seem to be located with a
bearing passing as far as 50kM from the offending station. Since BC stations
radiate from vertical masts, I naively thought there would be no effect from
a bearing straight throught the  'causing' station. This is not true, I
guess due to the disturbance at an elevation of 60 degrees or so in front
and behind.

I often hear the 'signature tune' with the two 'gong' tones that Peter G3PLX
mentioned. One more recent subjective observation (as a result of my
propagation observations) is that the Ionospheric Cross Modulation (ICM) is
always noticable (worse??) when there has been a geomagnetic storm (usually
peak radio effects are 3 to 4 days after the storm), and significant
disruption to LF propagation. I suppose this is reasonable as these events
inject high levels of ions (electrons) into the D-Layer. So there is more
material to 'work' with.  There has not been a major storm for some time but
for some reason there is a large reservoir of absorbing ions in the D-layer
which does not seem to be decaying very rapidly. One good point is that
these have led to good daytime conditions on 136 recently, though night-time
conditions have not yielded their normal high signal levels.

Cheers de Alan G3NYK
alan.melia@btinternet.com


Unfortunately Vaino is not fit enough to join in with the discussion, but I
am sure he is following it with interest.

Hi Wolf and the group,
  I asked those guys what their computations would give for an EH antenna for 137
kHz...
The answer was that the diameter would have to be a bit less than one meter, but the
length around 17 meters .... this for a computed (by them) efficiency of greater than
90 %...
I imagine what my neighbours would think of me should I erect such a monster in
my backyard... so, even if the EH antenna were a serious thing, that would not be
a viable solution for many.

Hi all,

I retrieved some messages by Peter Bobek, Andre' Kesteloot,
Peter Martinez, Johan Bodin, and Dave G3YMC from August-
September 1998 talking about the Luxembourg effect. Then I
zipped them to shorten the message. I counted about  120
messages in my archive of RSGB_LF_GROUP containing
"Luxembourg". Probably not all the current subscribers to this
list were there three years ago, so I hope this may be useful.

[to read the discussions dating back to 1998 about spurious
signals and Loran-C lines was quite interesting. If someone
wants the full collection of RSGB_LF from Aug, 1998 please
let me know !]

HI Wolf, I extimated that an EH antenna for 136 kHz may have about 5 meters of
diameter, if this giant tank irradiate RF in the space is another question.

I couldn't find the e-mail from Andre', but I have found a very detailed
explaination put forward by Peter, G3PLX, when the topic was discussed on
this list in 1998.   This e-mail is on an earlier mail application that I am
currently using, so I have had to copy and paste. Attached is a more recent
e-mail from Markus, DF6NM, on the subject.

73 John, G3WKL

>From Peter Martinez G3PLX Kendal Cumbria  (1st Sept 1998)

I listened to 139 kHz last night too, with a separate BC receiver to
check the identity of any crossmod.
For me, there were at least two programs audible. I identified one as
France Entere (Is that how you spell it?) on 162 kHz. There was another
with a very characteristic Interval signal consisting of a two-note
rising-third (musical notes B and E), but I couldn't find the source of
it on the LW band or MW bands during the 5 minutes it was sending this
up to 2100utc.

The theory of D-layer modulation which results in this effect needs the
D-layer electron temperature to change in sympathy with the AM
modulation. The thermal time-constant of the D-layer varies, but is
about 60uS at a height of 75km and 600uS at a height of 85km. This
should mean that as the night approaches and the reflection height
increases, the cross-modulation should get progressively more ""top-cut"
to it. 600uS means a 3dB top-cut of about 260Hz. I wonder if anyone is
getting a strong enough cross-modulation audio to tell if it does have
this "top-cut" effect and if it varies during the evening?

The cross-modulation may be 180 degrees out of phase with the original
audio at the point in the D-layer where the effect occurs, but the
signal from the original transmitter, if it's a medium-wave one, will
probably arrive by E and F layer at night, a longer path than the LF
transmitter via the D-layer (at about 90km height). There will probably
be two other effects which will swing the phase of the cross-modulation.
The D-layer modulation will probably have a phase-modulation component
itself, and in addition, since there will be a lot of surface-wave from
the 139 kHz signal, the resultant received signal will arrive by two
paths and so the cross-mmodulation may even be phase-modulated or end up
in phase with the priginal audio. I plan to try using the stereo DSP
here to study this. It should be possible to integrate-up the faint
effect and cancel out the noise and static over a period of time. There
is no severe frequency stability problem doing this as there was
integrating the LORAN noise.

The wobble on the 183kHz transmitter is a burst of +/-90 degree phase
modulation sending a 24-bit 010101 pattern at 125 bauds, repeated at
intervals of 192mS. My guess is that it's a test pattern intended to see
if listeners are disturbed by it, preparatory to introducing a data
broadcast on it, as is done on several other LW broadcasts. On these
others, the phase deviation is usually only 30 degrees.

Hi Marco,
you are right. here in the northerm part of Germany it is the
modulation from the DLF on 153kHz. it is daily abt an hour at
sun-set ZOA (maybe at dawn too).

Marco, I`m vy interested in that massage from Andre.

<BR>As G0MRF wrote:
<BR>&gt; With half the supply rail (lets say 6 Volts) on the pin, the RF output is zero.

<BR>
<BR>
<BR>Thanks for the explanation David. I have already sent Jim the information about a new 'two channel' output for PSKxx (implemented in Spectrum Lab) which uses the soundcard for this:
<BR>Left channel = Standard PSK signal with phase modulation and envelope shaping
<BR>Right channel = On/Off-keyed "audio carrier", ON for 180°, OFF for 0°
<BR>The AF carrier is required because the soundcard's output is not "DC" coupled.
<BR>
<BR>I hope with two rectifier diodes and a simple lowpass filter, these signals are sufficient to drive Jim's transmitter for PSK31 with amplitude shaping. If not, the program could be easily adapted to produce different audio amplitudes similiar to the scheme you described. 
<BR>So, if someone wants to try this with the &nbsp;SM6LKM/G0MRF DDS board just ask for an update. 
<BR>
<BR>&gt; A potentially good idea when we designed it, but lacking an application. 
<BR>
<BR> &nbsp;&nbsp;Maybe there's an application soon.

<HTML><FONT FACE=arial,helvetica><FONT  SIZE=2>Hello Alberto,
<BR>
<BR>Thanks for the report about the hamfest near Milano.
<BR>As we all desperately seeking for the ultimate miracle antenna, couldn't you convince the EH guy to offer his wonder thing for a bargain price to the LF community ?
<BR>I'd prefer the 2-meter long broomstick covering 135..138 kHz with no need to retune, efficiency &gt;= 90%, &nbsp;poynting vector built into a plexiglass tube at the bottom, and a flux compensator at the top. Any offers welcome....
<BR>
<BR>Apart from that: The QRM here was also quite heavy here in northern DL, but good enough for a Jason QSO with Dave G3YXM.
<BR>Now we are looking forward for an opportunity to demonstrate Jason's capabilities for real weak signal work ! Perhaps with an EH antenna fed with a few microwatts from the TX mixer ? ;-)

Yes, possibly.  But reception of MSF here is marred by local interference
which kills the ability to keep to much better than 10^-9 even with a very
narrow PLL.  Trying to use the 1PPS output, which requires reception in a
significantly wider bandwidth would give quite bad jitter which would kill the
frequency locked loop I am using.   A conventional PLL would do this a lot
better, but we would necessarily have to go to ultra narrow bandwidths, so
requiring lock up times measured in days.

Also, the delay inherent in any commercial MSF receiver will upset its use for
accurate UTC determination for signalling.   With GPS you know that the rising
edge of the pulse is within a microsecond of UTC anywhere in the world.

A GPS receiver is such a  universally useful piece of kit to have in the
shack, that once you have one you'll wonder how you ever managed time and
freqeuncy calibration before !

Andy:

First, my thanks for not choosing a signal reference that is Eurocentric, 
DCF77, MSF etc.  That is appreciated very much.

Clarification.  What you have done is taken a crystal 4.1.... MHz, that is 
in fact 2^22, and made it into a VXO that is locked to the GPS.  This 4 
+Delta frequency is to be used as a reference for a DDS, say the AD9850.

The end result is a time and frequency coherency traceable to GPS.

I have the 9850 here making BPSK now, so all we would need is to be able to 
most efficiently demodulate the BPSK to have a most efficiently possible 
system that should take us a few more  dB into the noise.  This I am 
interested in very much.

Fabricating PC boards here is an extreme pain, but if your up to it, please 
let me have a look to see what would be involved.  I will not be 
transmitting from here for a while, until I can get up the tower and 
re-string the LF antenna and the new top hat wires.

Hi Marco,
you are right. here in the northerm part of Germany it is the 
modulation from the DLF on 153kHz. it is daily abt an hour at 
sun-set ZOA (maybe at dawn too).

Marco, I`m vy interested in that massage from Andre.

Probably the missing pulse every minute makes things more complicated...
But I leave to Andy to give the correct answer.

Andy

Maybe I am missing something here, (and I am certainly not trying
to detract from an excellent piece of work) but couldn't you also take
the one second markers from MSF using an AM receiver, and drive
your circuit with that?

Related to that you might also be able to source the 1 sec pulses
from a partially dissassembled MSF (or DCF77) clock.

Thanks & 73

Looking at frequency standards for LF, the requirements are slightly
different than for the higher frequencies.  For microwaves, where
instantaneous frequency (over a few seconds) needs to be very good to avoid
chirp on SSB or CW, a high stability oscillator has to be used as part of
the Phase Locked Loop, locked to a master reference source.  The master
source can be off air such as Droitwich or TV Sync pulses in which case loop
bandwidths can be made wide enough that lockup to a few parts in 10^-9 is
possible in minutes.  Both these are very good in the short term, but may
have glitches or anomalies if relied on for hours at a time.   Another
standard in use is that by Brooks Shera that locks a high quality VCXO to
1PPS from a GPS receiver - requiring hours to lock up and a very good VCXO.
In all cases long term accuracy is that of the standard used - typically
parts in 10^-10 or better.  Designs for all these have appeared in Amateur
publications over the last few years.

For LF, however, particularly where we are integrating over many seconds
worth of data, the requirement for short term stability goes away, provided
this period is significantly shorter than the signalling interval; long term
stability is now even more important.  So the requirement for the high
stability VCXO has gone, and all we need is a locking scheme that can
maintain phase to within a few degrees over a few seconds, and in the long
term remain perfectly locked to the master reference without cycle slippage.

Here a GPS receiver really excells itself.  Rather than try to phase lock an
oscilltor at a 1Hz reference frequency which would lead to inordinately long
lockup times, I have used a frequency locked loop, based very roughly on the
old Huff & Puff stabiliser published in the 1970s.  A sort of H & P
stabiliser Mark 3.   

The idea is this :

A VCXO runs at any frequency that is an exact multiple of 1Hz (I use
4.194304MHz ).  This directly clocks an 8 bit synchronous counter made up of
74HC161 chips.  The outputs of this are connected to an 8 bit latch,
74HC374, and the 1 Pulse per Second signal from a GPS receiver module
latches the count once per second.  The latch outputs then contain the
counter contents, updated very second.  For frequencies that are an exact
multiple of 256Hz, the reading should therefore not change.  For frequencies
that are not an exact multiple of 256, the count will increment each second
by (Frequency MOD 2565).  If the frequency deviates slightly from its
correct value, the count will increment each second by 1 for every 1Hz in
error.  By not resetting the counter, as is done in normal frequency
counters, the effect is more of a phase detector than a frequency counter as
any error leads to a cumulatively increasing count.

A PIC interrupted by the 1 PPS signal then reads this latched figure, and
calculates the error from a nominal mid value of 128.   Using a PIC here
allows a calculation to be made for any frequency, not just a multiple of
256Hz.   The direction and magnitude of the error count is then used to
drive a charge pump, which in turn drives the varicap diode of the VCXO.
The effect is to keep the VCXO precisely locked in the long term to the GPS
signal, although in the short term it's instantaneous phase is jittering,
and therefore the frequency is shifting by a Hz or two every second.  By
apropriate choice of charge pump R/C values, the jitter can be minimised.
When this source is subsequently divided down to LF, the phase shift is
reduced by the division factor.   The PIC includes an initiallisation
routine to force the charge pump to a mid voltage, which is close to that
needed for zero frequency error, so the loop can lock up in less than five
minutes.  In comparison, a conventional PLL with 1Hz reference would needs
over 20 minutes even if the capacitor can be precharged AND the two pulse
edges forced into synchronisation by allowing the GPS to reset the divider.

Results so far are encouraging.  The residual phase blip when divided down
from 4.194..MHz to 137kHz is about 10 - 20 degrees over a 1s period, and
when averaged out over a typical 30s signalling period amounts to less than
1 degree overall.  Long term, when compared locally to other frequency
standards available(Caesium, Droitwich, TV Sync) there is no overall phase
shift of the 137kHz signal visible after many hours of monitoring, other
than the propagation effects of the latter two standards themselves.

A GPS receiver may seem an extravagance, but its value for LF signalling
will be immense !  As well as providing the ultimate long term accuracy for
frequency, by timing PSK signalling to GPS pulses as well, the requirement
for data clock recovery is removed, so gaining many potential dB's in S/N
capability.  By defining the starting phase as being at particular time,
even the requirement for differential coding has gone, immediately giving a
factor of two reduction in error rate and removing the threshold effect wrt.
S/N seen with differential coding.

A GPS receiver also makes an ideal instrument for general purpose frequency
measurements (use it to drive a frequency counter) and a time standard as
well as giving your location !

For anyone who wants to have a go and duplicate the design, I will supply a
copy of the circuit, a PCB layout and the PIC software on request.  There
may be a bit of a delay however,  as the design was only 'frozen' this
weekend and easy-to-read documentation is almost non existant at the moment
!  TAPR still market the Garmin GPS25 receiver module as far as I know, see
their web at www.tapr.org

Well, I may be wrong, but the relationship between duty cycle and
fundamental harmonic of a rectangular signal should be of the sin(x)
kind ( sin(x)/x should be the relationship between the order of the 
harmonic and output voltage at the harmonic frequency); 
I tried once to vary the output voltage of my class D PA varying the 
drive duty cycle and, to have a straight relation between the DC 
level and the output, I fed the PWM comparator with a sinewave instead 
of a triangular wave; the relationship between DC input and duty cycle
in this case follow an arcsin(x) law, which compensates the sin(x) between
the duty cycle and the ouput voltage.
The main problem was that, as pointed out by Johan, at low duty cycles
the output waveform was a bit "spikey" and the ouput filter was not able
to restore a pure sine wave, maybe also beacause of some feedthrough of
the gate drive signal.

The interfering station will be different for every listener, since it
depends on the geometry of the phenomenon... it was widely
discussed on this reflector at the origins (three years ago...?)
when we were not sure it was Luxembourg effect; at the time
I presumed it was a defective emission from Europe 2 near
Saarbrucken on 183 kHz or so.

The modulation is wide, distorted and lacking high frequencies
because of the thermal time constant of the ionosphere... a curious
thing, that confirms that you are not hearing a spurious emission.
Also, at times more than one station may be received.

I may forward the relevant messages to anyone interested; I
remember a very good explanation by Andre' Kesteloot.

Hello Group,
    we had two nice days at the hamfest of Novegro, near Milano.
Firstly, the weather was good, sunny, not even too cold, about
7 - 8 degrees Celsius.  Lot of people at the fair, and to our boot.
We were side by side with those demonstrating the first commercial
version of the EH antenna, so many of the visitors, after having
heard how well it performed, and how it generates the Poynting
vector, blatantly defying a couple of Maxwell equations, then
came to us asking what those funny shapes on the screen stood
for. "Is it PSK31 ?" - "No sir, it is a way of communicating on the
LF using very slow CW, with dot length of 3 seconds and more,
up to 60" - "Oh, I see.... but why so ? Even Marconi, when he sent
his famous three dots, used a faster speed..."
At this point, we had two choices : convincing him that he was the
perfect buyer for the EH antenna, and that he could not do without one,
or starting a long and boring explanation about S/N ratios, frequency
analysis, time and resolution dualism, etc.
We used one or the other approach after having "smelled" a little who
we had in front of us. We hope to have in the two days gained a few
new adepts for the "under the noise" world. Time will tell....

The QRN was tremendous... Friday afternoon Claudio IK2PII had
installed a loop outside the fair building, in the open, and he told me
that evening that the noise level was quite acceptable.
Not so on Saturday and Sunday... with hundreds of PCs and monitors
switched on, we were unable to copy Giulio  IK2DED, who transmitted
with 100W from his QTH less than 100km away. So it is remarkable
that we copied, Saturday with T report and Sunday with M- report,
Laurie G3AQC ! We copied also Valerio IK5ZPV, but his QRO
station usually produces an aurally copyable signal at my QTH.

To put an end to this long message, we are satisfied of the affluence,
and we thank Laurie, Jim, Wolf, Valerio, Cesare, Giulio and in general
all those who put a signal on the air during the weekend.

73  Alberto  I2PHD

Yes, I heard it too. I thought it was caused by the Luxembourg effect,
so didn't give it much attention. But now I will check if the language,
supposing I can hear it clear enough, is something similar to Czech..
(which translates into checking that for me it is double Dutch...:-)

Varying the drive duty cycle to change the RF level does not give the result
expected at first sight.   While the DC level does vary proportional to the
duty cycle, the RF carrier, which is revealed via the second term of the
Fourier expansion of a rectangular waveform does not.  Instead, there is a
SIN(X) / X  component in the waveform which gives a horribly non linear
relationship between duty cycle and RF out.  It may be possible to
pre-distort the drive waveform to work over a limited range of amplitudes,
but I hate to think what the lookup table would contain ! 
The only real way to alter the amplitude is to change the power supply to
the PA stage and a PWM modulator, ie. a switch mode PSU working open loop is
not too complicated a beast to make if it really is necessary to adjust
amplitude.   

But is it really worthwhile going to these lengths just to operate PSK31.
There are several other schemes already in use with equally good signalling
capabiliies that work with constant amplitude - ie JASON, Coherent (by
VE2IQ) and a host of externally synchronised coherent PSK schemes as yet
barely tried.   No one has looked at MSK yet either.  That is constant
anmmplitude, and with a bit of imagination could be generated from a DDS as
well as from the ubiquitous soundcard.

Yes and yes.

I meant square wave drive (class D).

My idea was to combine the modulator and the P.A. in the same stage.
This would eliminate the need for a separate PWM modulator in the
P.A. power supply.

The switching waveform will look a bit "spikey" at low output power. Worst
case
is when the output power is close to zero, the signal will look like a train
of impulses
with alternating polarity. I guess the spectrum will then contain all odd
harmonics
at the same amplitude as the fundamental, limited only by the switching
times.

Assuming a Q of 6 in the series resonant output circuit (typical value, I
think), this
circuit alone would attenuate the 3f component by 24dB. Not too bad.

hallo group,
hallo Rich,

since a few weeks i have the same problem. am signal from a broadcast
station in the upper part of the lf band depending on the daytime. i could
not figure out what kind or what country. i tried with bandpass filters, but
there was no improvement. my be there is an intermodulation on the tx side.

Betreff: LF: Strange signal on 135 kHz... 

Hi LF-ers...

	During the weekend I had a lot of QRM on the band. It looks like
crossmodulation from AM broadcast. I switched the radio in AM mode and I
have heard Czech Radio 1. This radio is on 270 kHz, but now with very strong
wide AM signal on 135 kHz. First I thought that something is wrong with my
radio, but I have tested it with lowpass filter and bandpassfilter in front
of my receiver. Something has been wrong on the other side. Ruda OK1DTN told
me, that he have the same problem. I was nearly unpossible to hear something
on 136 kHz. Anybody have the same problem this weekend ?

Yes and yes.

I meant square wave drive (class D).

My idea was to combine the modulator and the P.A. in the same stage.
This would eliminate the need for a separate PWM modulator in the
P.A. power supply.

The switching waveform will look a bit "spikey" at low output power. Worst case
is when the output power is close to zero, the signal will look like a train of impulses
with alternating polarity. I guess the spectrum will then contain all odd harmonics
at the same amplitude as the fundamental, limited only by the switching times.

Assuming a Q of 6 in the series resonant output circuit (typical value, I think), this
circuit alone would attenuate the 3f component by 24dB. Not too bad.

<BR>I have modified the PSK31 core in Spectrum Lab a bit so it can now produce an on/off keyed "audio carrier" with a few kHz which only needs to be rectified to have the raw phase keying information.

<BR>What I did not understand completely is how Jim produces the amplitude shaping. I think the PA supply voltage is variable, but where does the "envelope" signal come from ? One could (with a bit more programming work and more CPU power) deliver the "pulse shaping envelope" on the second channel of a stereo card.

<BR>Hello Wolf.
<BR>
<BR>Not sure about Jim's system. Best let him answer.
<BR>However, The SM6LKM/G0MRF DDS has an input pin that allows a DC voltage to control the output level and phase. ( A balanced modulator using 2 diodes)
<BR>With half the supply rail (lets say 6 Volts) on the pin, the RF output is zero.
<BR>As the voltage is increased towards 12V the output increases in proportion.
<BR>If the voltage is decreased from 6V towards zero then the RF output also increases in proportion, but with the opposite phase.
<BR>
<BR>So 6V = no output.
<BR>&gt; 6 V = &nbsp;phase 0 degrees
<BR>&lt; 6V &nbsp;= &nbsp;-180 degrees
<BR>
<BR>A potentially good idea when we designed it, but lacking an application.

Interesting idea, Johan, but I believe you'll find that if you drive the 
amplifiers with a sinewave, there is an efficiency penalty; whereas, if you 
drive them with a square wave, you actually have made a PWM modulator.

Another way to control the output power is to vary the phase
of the driving signal to one of the sides of a full bridge amp'.

Any ideas for a digtally (or otherwise) controlled 0-180 phase
shifter?

<HTML><FONT FACE=arial,helvetica><FONT  SIZE=2>Hello Jim and David,
<BR>
<BR>I have modified the PSK31 core in Spectrum Lab a bit so it can now produce an on/off keyed "audio carrier" with a few kHz which only needs to be rectified to have the raw phase keying information.
<BR>
<BR>What I did not understand completely is how Jim produces the amplitude shaping. I think the PA supply voltage is variable, but where does the "envelope" signal come from ? One could (with a bit more programming work and more CPU power) deliver the "pulse shaping envelope" on the second channel of a stereo card.

<HTML><FONT FACE=arial,helvetica><FONT  SIZE=2>Hi all,
<BR>
<BR>During a nice QSO in Jason mode today, and thinking about this and that, a crazy idea went through my brain. Maybe it's only good for the waste bin but how about this:
<BR>
<BR>Let the PC produce a digital control word for a DDS &nbsp;VIA THE SOUNDCARD ?
<BR>
<BR>A DDS like the AD9832 needs a special serial control word, which is generated by a PIC processor in most cases. Three digital lines are required. How about "producing" the control word for the DDS via the SOUNDCARD ? We could either use a stereo output for clock+data (producing digital signals) , a few clamping diodes, two or three transistors and possibly a monoflop for the FSYNC signal (a third control line from PC to PIC). An alternative would be using different levels for the FSYNC, but proper level adjustment and clamping would be required because most audio outputs are only "AC coupled".
<BR>
<BR>Johan (SM6LKM) has written a routine in "C" for PIC controllers which I have adapted to run under DOS, using the parallel port. But it's complicated to do this under windoze, especially if the DDS shall be controlled in a highly "synchronous" way through the parallel port. 
<BR>
<BR>
<BR>What would be the benefit of using the soundcard to drive a DDS ? 
<BR>- you wouldn't need a programmed PIC processor acting as an interface between PC and DDS.
<BR>- you wouldn't need a LPT interface which is tricky to access under Windoze NT + XP.
<BR>- you wouldn't need a serial interface which does not exist on some cheap notebooks.
<BR>- no need to fool around with USB programming
<BR>- The serial control word for the DDS chip can be timed very precisely under windoze. A 
<BR>continuous output (with update the DDS every 100 ms or so) is possible. 
<BR>
<BR>
<BR>Disadvantages:
<BR>- It's not a 'stand-alone' solution. A PC (or at least one of these tiny PDA's) is always needed. But which of the "modern modes" runs without a PC ?
<BR>- To implement this, basic knowledge of Windoze API programming is required. But I know at least one other reader of this reflector who has.. ;-)
<BR>
<BR>
<BR>If this sounds interesting, let me know and I'll do some more "research". The result could be a routine which produces raw 16-bit analogue samples to drive an AD9832 (which is the only DDS I have at the moment). 
<BR>

<BR>Hi Jim.
<BR>
<BR>I did try and chase this with some of the PSK31 authors as the SM6LKM/G0MRF DDS has a phase shift input for exactly that application. But in this world of analogue soundcards they thought an output of this type was not required.
<BR>It is possible to use some hardware and recover the phase data from the audio envelope, but it's hard work.

Hello LF folk,

Does anyone out there have a circuit diagram for a Manson EP925 Power
Supply (now known as the Palstar PS30)? This is the 3-15V @ 25/30 amp
unit and mine has developed an intermittent fault on the regulator which
causes the voltage to wander up and down.

73, Tom G3OLB

Yes please.  I haven't got round to using any of my '628s yet, but had heard a
few vibes that things were not as they seem

Geri,

Great article! I also thought the WWVB propagation plots were very
interesting. The amout of day/night increase in signal depends to a great
degree on the distance from the transmitter (farthest being the most
dramatic of course), but two listening locations approx the same distance
away from the transmitter do not experience the same db increase.

We are experiencing some very unusual daytime skip conditions in the
400-500mi range on the Lowfer band right now which may go along with this
data. There's also the possibility that my TX loop antenna may take better
advantage of these condition - having a much larger range of possible
radiation angles to bounce-in on the various receiving sites, compared to a
monopole.

Have any of you guys experienced these effects?

BTW: Didn't see any mention of the WWVB ground system used. Any info on
this?

Hello LF-friends,

I think the most interesting aspect about that paper on the WWVB LF article
was for me to learn that those guys seemed to have the same problems to
find suitable parts as we have. The way they described how the recovered
some old coils and litz wire from de-commissioned stations reminded me
pretty much of some "expeditions" that were described here on the reflector
earlier. Also the problems that changing weather conditions makes re-tuning
necessary is something I observe with my small-scale LF station as well.
Interesting stuff ...

Best 73

Hi Laurie.

Very high noise floor at Hamfest in Novegro (Milano), I think about 20 dB more
noise toward my home.

Received your DFCW signal with T report with direct convertion receiver and
suned loop antenna. Also copyed IK5ZPF calling CQ in QRSS with strong O signal
(as usually!). No signals received from IK2DED.

TNX from "Milano LF team": IK2PII (Claudio), I2PHD (Alberto), IK2CZL (Vittorio),
I2SG (Gianfranco).

<HTML><FONT FACE=arial,helvetica><FONT  SIZE=2>Hi Alberto and group,
<BR>
<BR>I tried to get QRV in Jason from the club station DF0WD this afternoon but only made two "local" QSOs in fast CW with Fabian (DJ1YFK) and Fred (DJ5DI). 
<BR>Also heard PA0VBR who would have been a new one, but WX conditions got too bad for another contact.
<BR>The storm was too heavy for longer transmissions: antenna wire dangling around, SWR running wild, mismatch protection in the TX made the output power go up and down. 
<BR>
<BR>If the weather permits &nbsp;and the antenna still exists, the next test in Jason will be tomorrow afternoon - around 137.52 if the frequency is clear. Only 50 mW ERP in Jason here, but I'm looking forward for my 2nd two-way contact in "V 0.92" mode. Thanks Alberto for the new program, hope you have better WX at your hamfest.
<BR>
<BR>Greetings,

Greetings:

I have for some days been struggling with achieving consistent and accurate 
serial port operation, especially when the Interrupts are being hit at a 
high rate.  The APNOTE from MICROCHIP does not work most of the time and 
never worked properly.  However a fine piece of work by Tom McGahee, 
PICUART.ASM for the 16C74A should be adaptable to the 16F628.

It was adaptable and works like a charm.  I have now tried this with the 
following Oscillator configurations.  For the 16F628, the Internal 4 MHz, 
an external 4 MHz crystal, a 1.8432 MHz crystal and with a high speed 
16F628 it ran just fine with a 21.7 MHz crystal.

I will send any and all who ask a copy of this ASM file, which I happen to 
call PIC8_4B.ASM, configured to run on a 4 MHz crystal or 4 MHz internal 
oscillator by just compiling it with MPASM.

I will decline to express my thoughts about Microchip documentation and 
product support.  It is suffice to say that my first copy of CPM-80, the 
one with both handwritten and typewritten documentation from Gary Kendall 
about 1976/7 was of higher quality and vastly more accurate than what I 
have received from Microchip for the 16F628.

Dear LF Group,

Unfortunately, a couple of problems have cropped up - First, my antenna has 
blown down in the gale last night. Not difficult to fix, but ... Second, My 
brother has invited himself and his wife and some friends to stay at my 
house for the weekend - no doubt they will call me antisocial If I play 
with radios!

I hope to persuade them all to leave by Sunday afternoon, but I am sorry to 
say almost definitely no Jason signals tonight - I hope to put some sigs 
out before Alberto's fair ends tomorrow.

Cheers, Jim Moritz

I have often wondered what many of the QST articles are that look like that 
article.  I suspect that many of them are Masters Engineering program 
projects.  So often I see this type of article and I have a feeling that 
the author is not really current in what is going on of just doesn't care.

Just my opinion of course.

Hello LF-friends,

I think the most interesting aspect about that paper on the WWVB LF article
was for me to learn that those guys seemed to have the same problems to
find suitable parts as we have. The way they described how the recovered
some old coils and litz wire from de-commissioned stations reminded me
pretty much of some "expeditions" that were described here on the reflector
earlier. Also the problems that changing weather conditions makes re-tuning
necessary is something I observe with my small-scale LF station as well.
Interesting stuff ...

Best 73

Geri, DK8KW (W1KW)

Dear Jim and group,
    the fair opens at 08:00 UTC and closes at 18:00 UTC both Saturday and
Sunday... if any of you is willing to try to send anything during this periods
that would be appreciated. Just tell us approximately when and where you
will be. I do realize that during day time the chances are feeble, but....

Thanks

I thought that the paper below on the update of the WWVB LF transmitter

Thanks for erudite replies Jim and Rik, very interesting but I don't
think they change my proposition.<br><br>
Now, here's a follow-on. This is an extract from the two-volume 1400-page
&quot;Handbook of Antenna Design&quot; (pub. by IEE in 1982)<br>
Chapter 15 - VLF, LF and MF Antennas edited by J. S. Belrose.&nbsp; My
italics.<br><br>
Quote:<br>
15.2.1<x-tab>&nbsp;&nbsp;</x-tab>Characteristics of vertical
antennas<br>
If the vertical dipole is some distance above the earth, its impedance
and radiation characteristics are identical with a free-space dipole.
However, vertical antennas at VLF, LF and MF are usually not far removed
from the ground, and generally the antenna is fed against the ground
plane as a monopole radiator. Such an antenna is said to be base-fed or
series-fed, or base-loaded in the case of electrically short antennas.
For the purposes of analysis, <i>neglecting losses in the ground</i>, the
monopole can be considered as a dipole whose lower half has been cut off
and replaced by its image in the ground. For some purposes, the concept
of the monopole radiator and its image is useful. The currents on the
vertical parts of the radiator and on its image flow in the same
direction i.e. the currents are in phase. The currents on the horizontal
parts of the radiator and its image are out of phase. <i>If the height of
the antenna is small compared with the wavelength, radiation due to
current flowing on the horizontal part of the antenna is almost exactly
cancelled by that due to the oppositely phased current on its image, and
the antenna is described as having a 'non-radiating' top load.</i> The
equivalent length of the monopole, and its input impedance, is one-half
that of the corresponding dipole antenna. The power gain of the
'grounded' monopole antenna is, however, 3 dB greater that a dipole
antenna in free space,this is because, for a grounded antenna, all the
power is radiated into a hemisphere, rather than a sphere.<br><br>
end quote.<br><br>
So, another effect of the very lossy ground is that radiation from the
horizontal top loading wires is NOT cancelled out and they will radiate.
Unfortunately, in all the eight different volumes I have on LF antenna
design, there is not one mention of what effect this horizontal radiation
might have. The assumption by all the authors seems to be that no LF
antenna designer worth his salt would dream of NOT installing the most
efficient ground he could and therefore this situation does not occur in
practice.<br><br>

Ciao Alberto,

bella la storiella dell'"error writer"!

Non vengo a Novegro, troppo stanco, questa settimana ho dovuto fare cose 
che odio (tagliare due teste in ditta) e sono emotivamente proprio stanco. 
Penso che dormiro' due giorni - almeno spero, ho avuto quattro notti quasi 
insonni. Che bello fare l'imprenditore!

Ti spedisco l'oscillatore in settimana.

73 - Marco

Dear Alberto,

What Time? I think it will have to be after dark to receive my sigs - will 
you still be around ?

Hi Zim,

To be fair to TI, their intention is that these amplifiers be used in self-powered
speakers, where the speaker wire length is inches (sorry, cems) at worst.
For the last few weeks I've had a couple of these driving a pair of whacking 
great JBLs in my office, and they sound better than they have any right to.
Big welly from something about the same size as an op-amp.  Amazing.
Better yet, they've passed the headache test (long-term listening fatigue)
which many amplifiers haven't.

We're designing them into a product for someone now, which incidentally
  -  and highly relevant to your point  -  like any other commercial product 
is going to have to pass Part 15 and CE emissions testing . . .  
Anyway; I'll drag one outside and plonk it under the antenna and see what
happens.
 
Your local friendly LF pollutant,

        Steve        W3EEE

Hello Group,
  as the subject of this message says, I am gently reminding
you to put some signals (QRSS, DFCW, Jason...) on the
LF band for our hamfest of Saturday and Sunday, whenever
you have the opportunity to do it.

A posting here communicating frequency, schedule and mode
would be much appreciated, TNX.

Dear Walter, LF Group,

Not sure if I'm an expert, but...

I think the losses that the signal is subject to between transmitter output 
and receiver antenna can basically be divided into 2 types:

Firstly, the losses that are incurred in producing a current in the antenna 
in the first place. In the case of a vertical it is necessary to generate a 
huge voltage gradient between the antenna element and earth in order to get 
useful current to flow, and this field gives rises to large losses in 
materials in that field; the earth itself, buildings, trees; the antenna 
wire and it's immediate environment can be modelled as a lossy capacitor. 
The theorists say that it is the RF current in the wire that is actually 
causing the propagating E and H fields, so the losses due to the electric 
field are not really "radiation" losses and make up the "e" part of the 
gain formula. These are the losses which make the feed point resistance of 
the antenna greater than the radiation resistance - the power dissipated by 
the radiation resistance is that part which is being radiated away, and 
wether it is absorbed or carries on propagating, it does not come back and 
affect the impedance of the antenna

Given that a particular current is produced in a wire of a particular 
geometry, the radiation pattern (and so the "D" part of the formula) can be 
calculated either analytically or a numerical result obtained using NEC or 
something similar. "Image" currents in a ground plane are taken into 
account. The radiation pattern for a monopole over lossy ground uses a 
model for the ground which, as I understand it, is a plane surface with a 
reflection coefficient of magnitude < 1 to account for the energy "radiated 
into the ground". This type of modelling is one way of producing ground 
loss curves. As PA0SE pointed out some time ago, The lossy ground model 
produces different radiation patterns at different distances from the 
antenna. The default radiation pattern displayed by EZNEC and shown in the 
text books is the "far field" pattern, mathematically the radiation pattern 
at a distance tending to infinity. For lossy grounds this inevitably has a 
null at ground level, because over very large distance, the ground wave 
will be attenuated very much more than the signal propagating through 
space, while a monopole over perfect ground has maximum signal at zero 
elevation. However, as the distance decreases, the attenuation of the 
ground wave is reduced, until at short distances, where the excess loss due 
to ground losses is negligible, it turns out that the monopole over lossy 
ground has much the same radiation pattern and D as the perfect ground case.

This actually seems to be close to the truth - calculating the field 
strength produced by my piece of wet string with a certain current in it by 
using a NEC model consisting of perfectly conducting wire over a perfect 
ground gives results that are within a few dB (usually a few dB higher) of 
reality, over distances between 1 - 10km. It seems reasonable that the few 
dB's additional "site loss" that occurs could be explained by the obstacles 
close to the antenna which the radiated signal runs into - since higher 
antennas that reach above this local clutter have reduced site loss, at 
least on the basis of the very limited data that is available.

So in summary: There are "antenna" losses, the power dissipated by the 
antenna and its near environment whilst a certain current is flowing, which 
are responsible for the efficiency "e" part of the gain formula, and which 
determine the loss resistance of the antenna.. The directivity D is 
affected by the distance from the antenna - close in, D is much the same as 
an ideal monopole, far away the ground losses modify the radiation pattern. 
Due to the very low values of e for all amateur antennas, G will always be 
a large negative number of dB, however. Calculating the radiation 
resistance and measuring the antenna current is the best easily done way of 
determining what ERP is being radiated, since it does not require knowledge 
of the antenna losses, only D, which is much the same for any electrically 
small vertical antenna, ie. 1.8 relative to a dipole in free space. So ERP 
= D.Iant^2.Rrad. In practice, the actual ERP may be lower by a few dBs 
"site loss"

There are lots of loose ends to this - it means that the radiation pattern, 
gain, and so by definition the value of ERP, depends on the distance 
at  which it is measured where ground losses are significant. Also, 
modelling the ground as a 2 dimensional plane is not very satisfactory - 
currents and fields exist within the ground, as the cave radio guys well 
know! Significant LF radiation from "earth" antennas has been demonstrated. 
NEC just does not seem to model real grounds well where one part of the 
antenna actually has a ground connection. More work needs doing on the 
"site loss". The lobed radiation pattern of verticals shown in the 
textbooks is fine at HF, but at LF the "upwards" components of the radiated 
signal will be bumping into the ionosphere and coming back down long before 
the ground wave has decayed. One could spend a whole lifetime on this sort 
of thing...

Cheers, Jim Moritz

Klaus,
    thanks for the Matlab files, I saw a lot of German text
in them.... I must enlist the aid of my wife to understand
what you wrote...

There is still a question I have. Probably the answer is
in what you sent me, if so, please bear with me.
You said that the lengths of the sincos tables must be coprime,
fine. The product of their lengths, together with the
sampling frequency, is what determines the minimum
resolution, fine. But, given that the above constraints
are respected, is it immaterial what lengths I choose,
or are there some other things you didn't say us yet ? :-)

Hi

Version 1.0 of the new Jason software for G0MRF's DDS is now
available.

I found some time to test and debug the program on real hardware.
It appears to work very well now.

The frequency range has been extended to cover 10Hz - 200kHz.
I am not sure if the hardware (filters etc.) will handle this range though...

I will be happy to e-mail the program to anyone interested.

Correct, only I use a Bartlett window, to reduce the width of the main lobe.
The Gibbs phenomenon is of no much annoyance here.

Yes, a version of Jason locked to a GPS could be done, but the problem is,
how many have the needed hardware to use it ? Besides non-coherent detection,
another factor contributes to reduce the S/N performance : character sync.
I don't know when a tone switching occurs or should occur. So I compute the
statistical 'mode' of the FFT peaks to detect this event. It is my feeling that an
integration done on the signal exactly on the interval where you 'know' that
a single tone is to be found, would give much better results.

In the States, the W4DEX beacon with 1 W (RF power, not ERP) has been
received at 1000 km distance, though not 100% error free. This is not to say
that m-ary FSK, non-coherently detected, is better than BPSK (it isn't), but the
diagrams on the Tom McDermott's book
"Wireless Digital Communications: Design and Theory"  ISBN: 0-9644707-2-1
giving the BER at very low S/N ratios look promising.

It would be interesting if the same comparison could be done using a PC
with Jason in "normal" mode. The  "slow" mode is a compromise, sort of,
where some statistic gatherings are traded of for a reduced CPU useage.
This could change the day I will stop computing a 2^17 points FFT ten
times per second, in favour of a zero-IF approach, as Johan Bodin
suggested in a private note. After all, Jason needs to keep his eyes only
on a few Hz of band...
But, as I told to Johan, I was too eager (and lazy) to release the program,
and I had some routines ready in my "software junkbox"...

Dear LF Group,

I copied G3JKV's 2W Jason beacon signal without problems last night - The 
signal was S6 here, so no great difficulty!

After that, I had a CW QSO with OH1TN. Reino remarked that he had been 
trying out different modes including PSK31 and Jason. A little later, I was 
playing around with the "Digimode terminal" part of DL4YHF's Spectrum Lab 
software in PSK31 mode, and was quite surprised to see a CQ call appear on 
the screen from Reino again (disguised as OH5UFO this time) - my RX just 
happened to be on the right frequency. So we had a CW/PSK31 cross-mode QSO, 
with good copy both ways.

Reino also spent some time transmitting a Jason beacon signal around 
135.8something; however, I was unable to copy it due to the amount of drift 
- the drift could clearly be seen on individual dots in the waterfall 
display - so no usable results here.

Cheers, Jim Moritz

Hello Walter,

You are raising a question I have been thinking about for quite some time.
Even after discussion with some antenna specialists I didn't come to a
conclusion.
You are right stating that the gain figures you mention for a short
vertical (4.77dBi or 2.62dBd) is based on the directivity (as for any gain
from any antenna). And this directivity is caused by interference of the
signal radiated 'into the air' and reflected by the (perfect) ground.
In fact a vertical monopole can not radiate without some form of
'counterweight', wether it is the ground, some form of radial system or
even just the shielding of the coaxcable it is fed through.

Some time ago I did a simple test : I built a small battery operated xtal
oscillator, using a CMOS gate (7400) and a 3.579MHz xtal running on a 9V
battery. I did put the whole thing a a small plastic (not metal !) box,
connected a 1m piece of wire (= antenna) to the oscillator output and hung
it on the brach of a tree (few m high) at about 100m from the shack. Using
my TS440 and a 1m wire antenna I could barely hear the signal. Next I cut
50cm of wire from the oscillator's antenna and connected it to the minus of
the battery and hanging down, as counterweight (in fact making a kind short
vertical dipole).
Now the signal was very clear, I assume at least 10-20dB stronger. Changing
the position of the counterweight wire from vertical to horizontal made the
signal sleightly weaker (few dB) and adding a number of additional
horizontal counterweight wires increased the signal again.

I believe this confirms the fact that a vertical monopole is not much of a
radiator without a counterweight.

Now returning to your question : what is the gain (directivity) of a 'real
world' short vertical monopole ?
As you mention only a very small part of the transmitter power is radiated
(typical between 1% and 0.01% of the power for amateur sized antennas). 
But this means that the part that is radiated 'sees' some kind of
counterweight. Unfortunately is it impossible to know the shape and
dimension of this counterweight and I believe that the directivity of the
antenna just depends on this.
For example : assume you have a full size (half wave) vertical dipole. This
antenna will have a gain of 0dBd (obvious) or 2.15dBi. Further assume that
the lower half of the dipole is a multi-strand wire and you 'untwist' all
the strands. Now you get a lot of parallel wires, but nothing will change
on the antenna behaviour. Next you start to tilt all the parallel wires,
creating a kind of Ground Plane antenna. Assuming the number of wires would
be endless the antenna directivity would slowly increase from 0dBd/ 2.15dBi
(all wires vertical) to 3dBd /5.15dBi (all wires horizontal). This last is
the gain of a quarter wave monopole.
So in practice the directivity of a short vertical monopole over an
imperfect ground will be somewhere between the gain of a short vertical
dipole (1.77dBi / -0.39dBd) and the gain of a short vertical monopole over
perfect ground (4.77dBd / 2.62dBd).

That's the way I see it, no claims to be 100% correct. But I hope it helps.

73, Rik  ON7YD

Hi,

Those of you interested in digital transmitters might take a look at the
new(ish) TPA3000D1 from TI.

www.ti.com/sc/tpa3000d1

It's a class D audio amp capable of 17 Watts audio. It has a switching speed
around 200 Khz.

I figure it's a "good news" and "bad news" story.

The good news is that it could possibly be used as a basis for a simple qrp
VLF TX
(I figure that the RC osc could be over-driven by an Xtal osc...)

The bad news is that they are seriously proposing that these things be used
in consumer equipment without any form of output filter....

I've just built a PIC controlled DDS using the AD9832 using a similar technique.  I stuck the chip to a small piece of copper mounted along the middle and between the pins of an 18 pin DIL header and used very thin ecw to extend the legs to the header pins.  I bent the chips' legs very slightly to allow easier access to them with the soldering iron.

Now here are some top tips!

When I got to the 14th leg, the wretched thing fell off so try only to bend the legs once!

I managed to attach a wire to the stub of the leg by cutting a very sharp point onto a length of 22swg tinned copper wire, wrapping the wire around the soldering iron bit, tinning the end as soon as it was hot enough and then prodding the tinned end of a piece of ecw against the stub using the home made soldering bit.  I found it best not to swear too loudly whilst doing this - a steady hand is needed.

I potted the whole (very), ugly construction in epoxy resin and it's worked well ever since!

I used a watchmakers eyeglass (my Dad's an horologist), for the really tricky bits and although it didn't affect me too badly cross-eyed-wise, I suspect Andy's comments should be noted.

Regarding a board for various DDS chips, I have a friend who owns a PCB milling machine which will accept gerber files and will, apparently, cope with SMT devices.  He might be willing to run off a couple of boards if anyone would care to design one?  I haven't asked him by the way so he might not!

Could one of you experts help me with the following please:

A short vertical monopole antenna over perfect ground has a gain relative 
to isotropic of 4.8 dB.
A half-wave dipole in free space has a gain rel. isotropic of 2.15 dB
Therefore, a monopole should have a gain of 2.65 dB over a dipole.
So the theory goes............

But look at the qualifier on the short vertical gain - it has to be 
operating over "perfect ground". No amateur has "perfect ground"; at least 
not that I am aware of. I haven't heard of anyone laying out 36 radials 550 
metres long under his antenna (not even G3KEV.......yet!)

So nearly all the energy that goes into the ground is dissipated and does 
not return to the feedpoint.  Therefore it cannot reinforce the radiation 
pattern.  In that case, does the theoretical gain still hold?

Gain is only obtained from directivity.  Directivity can be calculated from 
physical considerations but the equation to obtain gain from directivity 
is  G = e*D , where G = power gain, D = directivity, and e = radiated 
power/total power.  The "gains" quoted above are actually theoretical 
directivity figures but they assume that e = 1, that is, that there are no 
ground losses (as the definition states) and that accordingly gain is the 
same as directivity.

Not so in an average amateur situation, where e = 1/1000 (1w radiated for 
1000w input) so G = 0.001*4.8 = .0048 dB. In other words, the average 
amateur LF antenna is no better than isotropic.

Or should I be ignoring earth losses and only counting copper losses?

Walter,

Received last nights'  2W tests 100% using my special 12 inch piece of wire fed into a deaf IC756 through 300 feet of coax complete with no pre-amp or pre-selection.  This plus my 166MHz PC must be more difficult than Holland or Germany :-)

I have my 2w pipsqueak running Jason successfully and would like to try it 
out on air.

Recent results with Jason indicate that it should be possible for my 
radiated 20 mW to reach Holland and Germany but it will be well below noise 
even on Argo/Spectran and only found by precise frequency setting clear of QRM.

Is there a frequency that has some chance of being heard outside the UK and 
does not compete with the high-power lads?
Possibly 137 100  or so?  Does this avoid the Loran lines in Germany?

Sorry to disappoint you, Mal, no kilowatts here in spite of being south of 
the Thames!

The same here!!!
Very good copy of M0BMU, with my tx antenna, and a IC 738 with Mini Circuit
DBM, the only problem is that i have switched on the OCXO 5 Mhz by
Oscilloquartz too late, so , it has take 1 hour to go in temperature, so
captured only the end of trasmission, but also with Gram 5.1 was perfectly
readable!
Now i'm using my IC 775 that is very good on LF, like the 738 with DBM
converter, but, i'm using not the original P.S.U. of 775 becouse the
original P.S.U. is a switching model, with switch frequency fo about 70 KHZ,
so is impossible to use the 775 in LF for the strong second armonic!!!!!!
About the Jason, i think that is a very original mode, don't need to look
the screen for many time to read the qrss or dfcw, but this last mode are
also very interesting.
About my test 2 days ago, when i was trasmitting, in the middle of
trasmission, with only 20 w with rain wx, 2 of the 3 wire at the top of
antenna that make the capacitive loading has fired and dropped down to the
vertical part of the antenna, so 20 W, rain, and antenna broken, the Jason
has worked well and reports of good reception from I5TGC was sended me, a
test with very poor Tx condition!!!
About the TX for Jason, i have used like exciter the IC 738 at 5.137 Mhz
with PC to mike input, OL 5 Mhz Oscilloquartz, Mini Circuit DBM , and two
transistor for amplifier the low signal from DBM, then the TX is a single
IRF 640 that deliver 100 W out at 17 Vcc.
But  the problem is that switching off on PC the Jason from TX to stand by,
the sound card give a noise signal to the TX that go into autooscillation,
so need to switch off all two togheter at the same time, i think that is
better  a DDS source, good also for dfcw!!

73 to all and saturday from 8.00 to 17.00 i'll tx on beacon mode for the
Milano - Novegro hamfest, at 137.520 in Jason, qrss 3, for this special
event!!

OK, I don't get these problems but then my eyesight is faulty and does not
combine the output of my eyes into stereo vision hence it is not an issue with
me.

That explains a lot.

Dear Andy, LF Group,

So, in principle, if one was looking at a spectrogram of a signal made up 
of dots of a certain length, with evenly distributed noise, it would not 
matter from the viewpoint of detecting them whether they were all in a line 
(QRSS) or distributed over 17 different frequencies (Jason), provided you 
knew what the 17 frequencies were. The Jason signal is equivalent to 17 
separate QRSS stations on different frequencies, using a funny type of code 
arranged so that only one station is transmitting at any one time. So the 
ability to detect this kind of signal with a given signal power and noise 
power spectral density only depends on the length of the dots and not at 
all on the number of frequencies used. But using a larger number of 
frequencies enables faster transmission of data because then a larger 
number of different codes can be made up from a given number of dots. So 
Jason should work with the same signal and noise levels as QRSS using 12s 
dots, but at the same time be 5 times quicker - is this correct?

I suppose there are practical restrictions on this - for example, you have 
to find 4Hz of bandwidth with no narrow band noise in it, like Loran lines, 
in order to make the scheme work.

I can believe that machines are better at detecting a small change in level 
of signal/noise than a human operator, but with the simple encoding schemes 
we are using, the human operator has the advantage in that they can quite 
often "guess" what the data should be when it is corrupted. But then you 
could argue that error correcting codes of one sort or another achieve 
similar results for machine decoding.

All three of these modes use the same basic technique, looking for the
presence or absence of a signal in a given bandwidth - in the case of JASON
doing this 17 times in parallel.  The bandwidth that matters is not the
total bandwidth of the whole signal, just that occupied by one of the tones,
and that is defined in the decoding software.   I think Alberto is using a
2^17 long FFT on an 11025 Hz sampling rate, so each FFT bin occupies
0.084Hz.  Windowing of the FFT data is usually done which widens the
effective bandwidth - a Hamming window gives a factor of 1.85 - so the Rx
bandwidth is now 0.16 Hz.  

What you are doing is trading off the ability to send 3 bits at a time
(actually 4 per symbol but one is used for framing) against total signal
bandwidth.  6 bits giving the full alphabet of 64 characters needs two
symbol lengths.  

QRSS sends characters using variable length coding but an average of
something like 10 dot intervals per character is probably not unreasonable
(E = 2, T = 4, J = 14, 0(zero) = 20 etc.)
DFCW shortens this by a factor of around 2, to 5 dot intervals per
character.

So, assuming equal symbol lengths :
QRSS 10 symbols / character
DFCW  5 symbols / charracter
JASON 2 symbols per character

So for a given signalling, or noise bandwidth, JASON is 5 times quicker than
QRSS, and DFCW twice as fast.  

All three assume a symbol can have the same arbitrary length, and can
therefore be received in the same signal (or noise) bandwidth.  The tone
spacing in Jason is set at three FFT bins to allow independdant (orthogonal)
detection, so for the 17 tone version total bandwidth is 16 units so
effective bandwidth of each of the modes is :

QRSS 1 unit of bandwidth * 10 symbols/character  = 10
DFCW 2 units of bandwidth * 5 symbols/character  = 10
JASON 16 units of bandwidth * 2 symbols/character = 32

So in terms of effective bandwidth CW and DFCW are roughly equal,  Jason is
worse by a factor of 3.  So there is the trade off.  Signalling speed vs.
effective bandwidth..........

But that is not even the whole story .....

A machine can decide on the presence or absence of a signal in a defined
bandwidth a lot better than a human eye can on a waterfall - it most
definitely can, believe it, its true, even if this fact makes you feel
uncomfortable :-((
How much better is debatable, but probably there is 3 - 6dB to be gained by
using a machine for decoding rather than the.   We are now into the realms
of the non linear relationship between error rate and signal to noise, so it
is more difficult to quantify this better decoding in terms of noise
bandwidth, but it is easy to believe the factor of 3 (= 5dB) could be
recovered, in the case of weak and marginal signalling even more so -
meaning JASON matches the performance of QRSS and DFCW for a given symbol
length.

Note, however, that as JASON fixes the symbol length at around 11 seconds,
so to compare like with like, we should only be comparing with 10s QRSS /
DFCW.

Hope that explains the process of how to compare these modes.  All rely on
the same fundamental decoding mechanism, incoherent detection of signal
power in a fixed bandwidth.  Now, if instead of power, we operate with known
phase and look for signal voltage we immediately gain another 6dB, but
that's another story.  Suffice to say,  G3PLX at 393km distance can get 100%
copy of my 30s BPSK transmissions when I am radiating less than 1W of RF,
equating to probably only 100-200 microwatts ERP

May I contribute to the discussion?

If you don't normally wear glasses, but are considering using them for IC
work, I suggest you consult an optician for advice on the most appropriate
form of vision enhancement.

I start from the opposite extreme to Andrew Talbot. I have to wear glasses
pretty well all the time as I have severe astigmatism. I also have an
alternating divergent squint which means that I do not in practice have
stereoscopic vision. Also my hands are not entirely steady.

Nevertheless, I have successfully assembled the GQRP surface mount kit using
my reading glasses (carefully cleaned) and an illuminated magnifier on an
Anglepoise-type mount.

Hi

An "pre-alpha" version of the program is now available for PIC16F84.
(not yet tested on hardware ;-) 

There wasn't room for both Jason and DFCW in the PIC16F84 so
DFCW had to go...

If there is interest, I can modify the program later to handle both Jason
and DFCW but that will call for a PIC16F628.

Is there anyone out there who has both the G0MRF DDS board and a
PIC programmer and would like to do the "big bang test" for me?
If it doesn't work, you can always pour the old code back into the PIC.

(I don't have the G0MRF DDS board and I don't have the time to build an
equivalent test circuit right now.)

PIC program and interface details are available on request.

Jim,

I did look for your 135.990 transmission last night.  I saw nothing but
didn't expect to.  There were heavy thunderstorms in the mid US and
another small group to my SE wiped out LF reception for me.

Lyle, KØLR, made some test comparing JASON with other modes.  Here is
his initial results:

>>>>>>>>>>
I was
trying to compare Jason and WOLF, using the same old noise recording
that
was the "standard" for comparisons of other weak-signal modes a while
back.
In those tests, 12 WPM CW was good down to about -18 dB and QRSS3 was
good
maybe to -27 dB. In today's tests, WOLF produced solid copy after 288
seconds at -35 dB. Jason seemed to be erratic at any signal level, so I
knew
something was wrong with my receiving setup. Turns out that my Pentium
233
MHz "ham" computer requires the slow mode setting (Jason won't run on my
900
MHz Pentium III). After switching to slow mode, it looked like Jason is
farily solid down to -30 dB, and gives partial copy at -33 dB. Results
could
be completely different under other combinations of QRN and QRM. Anyway,
with the right settings I might have had better results on your Jason
signal.

Unfortunately as far as I can tell both paths will require a Yahoo ID.
Being a moderator, the interface I see is different from other members so I
am not 100% sure of this - but nearly.  If the level of disclosure is more
than you are prepared to give then I'm afraid its a non-goer.    I share
your distaste for generally disclosing any info about myself, internet or
elsewhere, but the only thing I have any problem with here is disclosing my
age.   In my case it probably doesn't matter as you have probably figured
out that I'm "over the hill".   And you could always fudge it in either
direction if you wanted to :-)   All I can say is that I have had a Yahoo ID
for some considerable time now with no apparent ill effects.   In fact I
belong to a number of groups which require a similar level of disclosure
without problems.    So far in over 5 years I still haven't had any trouble
with spam.    Maybe I'm lucky.

Alberto,

HTML and attachments are not allowed for two reasons - security and freedom
from unsolicited posts of graphics.    A case of a picture is worth (costs)
a thousand words.  This is not a criticism of those who post graphics - it
was the concensus of the members on "lofexp"who responded to my question on
this point.    We have found that either an url to pictures or an invitation
to request direct emailing of pictures is entirely adequate.    This is not
a hard and fast ruling, just the preference of members at this time.

In short the "lofexp" reflector is designed to be as little a load as
possible on those without fast connections or are burdened with high
internet time costs.    Most of the time it succeeds.

Going on our holidays which were postponed due to the bushfires.     Back by

Dear LF Group,

Many thanks for the reports on the Jason beacon sigs last night from 
OE5EEP, SM6LKM, I2PHD, IK2PII, CT1DRP, and to anyone else who was listening 
. I started late, about 2015, after having trouble putting my antenna up  - 
but it went up in the end, so the ERP last night would have been close to 
1W. I transmitted on 135.910 from about 2015 - 2120, and on 135.990 from 
2300 - 0210. I transmitted the CW ID just by keying the TX on and off, 
without interrupting the Jason frequency shifts - provided the ID is fairly 
short, this did not seem to corrupt the Jason signal much, and the shifts 
of a few Hz makes little difference to the CW note.

Before starting, I saw QRSS from OH5UFO just below 136.0, and between the 
two transmissions I could see F6BWO active in the "T/A" slot. At this I 
also heard a faily weak "digital" signal around 135.8 - It had a bandwidth 
around 20Hz, didn't seem to be PSK31; maybe this is the signal Johan heard? 
Perhaps Reino again? I also thought I saw another weak Jason signal at 
about 135.885kHz, but although it looked about right on the waterfall 
display,  it would not decode, so perhaps just some jittery noise.

It is clear that Jason can be a useful LF mode. With 1W ERP, people are 
getting more or less perfect copy all over Europe; I expect it would 
increase the range of QRP stations in a similar way to QRSS. The bandwidth 
and transmitter requirements are nicely compatible with current LF 
practice, although the 100% duty cycle requires better than average 
heatsinks! The software is easy to install and use. It remains to be seen 
if in it's current form it is a "transatlantic" mode - The Lowfers seemed 
to be otherwise engaged last night, and listening conditions over there 
seemed to have been fairly poor anyway. However,  a shortfall in SNR could 
be made up by increasing the dot length, at the expense of speed of course. 
All in all, it seems to be very promising.

BTW, does anyone know how to compare the weak signal performance of Jason 
and QRSS or DFCW? It seems clear that the increased bandwidth must result 
in some loss of SNR, but there will also be gains because the data is being 
transmitted faster for a given dot length.

Cheers, Jim Moritz

Hi Arnie,

Nice to hear from you again

The latest Jason release from Alberto I2PHD, is to be found on
http://www.weaksignals.com.com/jason


>Or someone on this list could please send it to me as an e-mail attachment
?

If you have any problems I can do this.

Probably the best plan, in the first place, is to look for QRSS or DFCW from
Europe to see if propagation exists. It is technically much easier to do and
you can monitor a range of frequencies at once.
I feel that it should do as several EU stations have been seen by W4DEX in
North Carolina.
I take it that you have a copy of  Argo, also from Alberto, on the website
mentioned above.

I have been receiving your DXers Unlimited broadcasts from Radio Havana but
only the 13750kHz SSB seems to get through. Heavy QRM on 13750

I have my 2w pipsqueak running Jason successfully and would like to try it 
out on air.

Recent results with Jason indicate that it should be possible for my 
radiated 20 mW to reach Holland and Germany but it will be well below noise 
even on Argo/Spectran and only found by precise frequency setting clear of QRM.

Is there a frequency that has some chance of being heard outside the UK and 
does not compete with the high-power lads?
Possibly 137 100  or so?  Does this avoid the Loran lines in Germany?

Sorry to disappoint you, Mal, no kilowatts here in spite of being south of

Yes, this roughness is additional to the inevitable value 
quantization of the memory words which you mention further below.  
The effect of address quantization often is much greater.

Yes and no. See above. The quantization of the memory words remains. 
But the effort to get this smaller by longer words is linear in 
complexity.  That means, each further bit gives a gain of 6 dB. 
In contrast, the effort to get the effect of address quantization 
smaller is exponential.  To gain 6 dB, you have to double the memory.

Yes. But that is a severe limitation. And modern DDS chips often have 
implemented extra hardware for dithering which smoothes out the 
effect over ALL frequencies.  You cannot switch off that.

Yes, interpolation is the best way to reduce the error.  But linear 
interpolation is not sufficient.  Implementation of a Taylor 
approximation is easy since the derivations of sin are cos -sin -cos 
sin and so on.  So you have all the coefficients from your sine 
table.  But it requires an arithmetic unit.

> D/A Quantisation:
> -------------------
> 
> This is caused by the limit to the number of bits in each ROM location.

Yes, we mentioned that above.  When the phase step is chosen such 
that only a few memory words are addressed periodically, the spectrum 
of the periodical quantization error (that's not a sine!) 
concentrates the power into equidistant spikes, that are mirrored at 
half the sampling frequency and at 0 again and so on.  This also can 
be smoothed out by dithering. But a dither generally raises the noise 
level.


Now, let us review the method with the Chines Remainder Theorem:
We have no address quantization.  But we have value quantization 
of the memory words.  And additionally we have some rounding error 
of the arithmetic that computes the final result. That's the same 
if we use a Taylor-approximation.  I found that the DDS with the 
Chinese Remainders is easier to implement and much more efficient 
on a DSP than a classic DDS with interpolation.

NO NO NO !
I don't wear glasses, but tried these for IC work.  They were great for
magnifying, but the convergence was wrong and as soon as I took them off I
was cross eyed and could barely see for some minutes afterwards.  That was
quite alarming, and the glasses immediately went in the rubbish bin.  A
headband magnifier, eg RS Components  3x does a better job of maintaining a
flat plane and better stereoscopic vision and does not give the same after
effects.

This message is still being responded to with the Radiated Power subject
line :-(

A hint for the skinflints among us.

You can now buy 'non-prescription' reading glasses from places like Boots at
up
to 3 diopter for a very reasonable price.

Unless you already wear strong glasses and want the extra magnification
these
are every bit as good as a headband magnifier and more convenient to wear.

Just get the strongest they have and give them a try.

The AD9850 wants a (nominal) 0 - 5V squarewave waveform, the duty cycle is
not important.  You haven't specified the absolute voltage levels in your
diagram below, but if it is nominally a TTL type of signal it may work.  In
practice though, I've found the AD9850 will work with input waveforms a lot
worse than the specs call up. In some cases a 3Vpk-pk waveform will operate
it provided som DC bias is added.

The best way to correct an arbitrary shaped waveform to suitable levels is
to pass it through a buffer, such as a 74AC14 Schmitt trigger gate.  This
particular logic family will go to about 150MHz.  If you DC bias the input
at a point between its two hysteresis levels then AC couple the signal, the
buffer will respond to signals of less than 1V pk-pk.   For higher gain,
couple to a 74HC04 inverter, biassed into linear operation with a resistor
of a few 10s or 100s of k ohms between output and input.

In retrospect it would have been a good idea to add a clock buffer on that
DDS module, and space for a TTL oscillator module,

Subject: LF: Reference Osc. Waveform


Greetings All:

This discussion of DDS chips reminds me of a problem I have here.  I have 
two, very nice TOYOCOM TCO-512K oscillator modules.  I want to put these to 
work here.  The output waveform looks like this on the Scope I have here

x             x                x
  x            x  x            x
   x           x   x           x etc.The waveform looks almostexactly like a
right angle triangle.
    x          x    x          x
     xxxxxxx     xxxxxxx
       ^       ^        ^
The up arrows are the beginning of a cycle, the middle of the cycle, the 
end of the cycle.

What will this type of waveform do to the 9850?  Does the 9850 want a 50% 
duty cycle? or can I put this kind of wave form into the 9850 without risk?

These are very high quality units, they were the frequency determining 
elements in an early analogue cellular radio system (Swedish system), but I 
am at a loss to understand this waveform on the output.  I have tried 
different loadings on the output (10K to 50 ohms) and it seems to stay very 
close to the same,

If this waveform is not suitable is there a simple way to add something to 
make the waveform a square wave with 50% duty cycle?

Dear Klaus,

Thank you for your good humour and patience in answering my dumb questions.
It's embarrassing for me to show my ignorance in public, but it's worth it
if
I learn something useful.

For a long time now I've been trying to understand the practical trade-offs
in DDS design.

So let's see if I have this DDS Distortion thing right ...........

Memory Quantisation:
----------------------

If all of the bits in a DDS latch are used to drive the Sine ROM, then there
is NO problem with memory quantisation.

If the Latch has many bits (e.g. to get fine frequency steps) then the ROM
will have to be excessively large. If only the higher order bits are used to
drive the ROM, then the wave generated will have a degree of roughness.

In the special case where the low order (unused) bits do not change (e.g.
where the matching low order Increment bits are at zero), then there is also
no quantisation error (is this correct?).

Question: If we use a modern DDS chip, but limit the steps used to those
which only exercise the ROM address lines, does this give us a more pure
signal ?

In practical DDS design, there are various methods to increase the
resolution without increasing the ROM size. One method is to interpolate the
"missing" readings. The simplest would be to draw a straight line between
the two readings and then subdivide it into as many points as are required.

D/A Quantisation:
-------------------

This is caused by the limit to the number of bits in each ROM location.

Hi

Anyone else heard the strong multi-tone FSK signal?
It sounded like Piccolo or "High Speed Jason"...

Reminds me of the day I soldered a 32 core cable into a 32 pin plug,
then found that I'd forgotten to slide on the cover first...

All done in the dark sitting on an upturned waste-paper basket with a
torch in my mouth.

Just received M0BMU beacon with a minumum station!

This is a good test for the receiving station to be exposed the next week-end
in hamfest! I hope for some signal in the week-end for our show.

A tuned loop on my balcony, 100 meters of SAT-TV cable, homemade direct
conversion RX, an old savaged 100MHz Pentium with 16 Mb ram...

Yes, some errors but a very good Euro/error ratio!

some garbage...DE MBMU JASON92U0BMU JASON92 DE M0BMU M0BMU JASON92 DE M0BMU

Perfect copy in Italy Jim, no need this time to attach a screen capture.

Jim,

I heard your CW ID simultaneously with the Jason signal!? (outside the
"yellow lines" of course). Are you using a linear P.A. and add the CW
as audio to the Jason soundcard output?

135990 is clean here. I'll take a look 2300Z

Hello all,

I had solid copy of Jim, M0MBU, Jason V0.92, 135.910 on the spot between
2015Z - 2045Z. Screen capture available on request. My first copy of a
Jason signal!

I am surprised that my PII-350 works at the "normal" RX-Speed setting.
This must be a borderline case!

Thanks to Alberto for this great software!

73 Heinz, OE5EEP

Hi Jim,

>Any reports would be welcome.

Part of Jason screen is attached. Displayed time is UTC+1h.
Even the CW ID was "armchair copy" (aural) with SSB filter.

A hint for the skinflints among us.

You can now buy 'non-prescription' reading glasses from places like Boots at up
to 3 diopter for a very reasonable price.

Unless you already wear strong glasses and want the extra magnification these
are every bit as good as a headband magnifier and more convenient to wear.

Just get the strongest they have and give them a try.

If anyone cares, 
I'm signing off this list now. Too much nonsense.

I and most of it has nothing to do with LF, VLF. Just crap and personal
attacks. I am very disappointed... But not surprised. Here it also on Air.
And they talk about new stations and slag the Foundation license holders off

Dear LF Group,

I'll try to run the Jason beacon from about 2000utc until 2100 or so on 
135.910kHz, and from 2300 until 0100 or later on 135.990kHz,  just for a 
change and to see if this frequency is an improvement. The wind here seems 
to be getting up, so I may not be able to put up my mast, in which case the 
signal will be about 4dB down on normal. Any reports would be welcome.

Cheers, Jim Moritz

This reminds me of my first experiments with a uP board, one that, I am
sure, will awake many memories in our UK friends, the Nascom 1...
I bought it in London, in kit form, during a trip there.
It was Z80-based, 1 kB of RAM, and I hand-assembled the programs
for it, computing all the branch offsets by hand... imagine the joy when
you had to insert new instructions in the middle of the program...
but I managed to stuff an RTTY decoder in that 1 kB...
then I bought the 32 kB expansion, a luxury indeed,  the assembler
program, and the fun ended...:-)

I still have it, in my nostalgia department...

This is how I built my first Intel 4004 back in 1972.  My list of opcodes 
was a type written list and it took three months work to get this little 
darling to print out the first "A" on an ancient Chicago Teletype Corp 
Model 33 printer.  Three more months and some additional memory it was 
controlling the OSCAR    VI satellite for me (which I did for over 5 years 
hi).  We had raging debates in a local eatery on the use of the different 
opcodes.  We set the clock with 74121's with a scope and pots, with the two 
phase overlapping timing used to drift and eventually the thing would stop 
working at times.  Dead bug work here goes back a long way hi.

It takes a lot of courage to work for weeks and then turn it on to see if 
you "got it right"!!!!

Good News, glad u will try it, I like the VK board I just saw.....

The only real risk is if you get the soldering iron defocused and you stick 
it into your nose!  I did this a few times and it really stings, I put a 
wire shield over the work area such that the iron can not come UP, and if I 
touch the wire I can feel it and know I am going the wrong way hi.

The stings only last for a few days hi

Hi Jim,
I too saw your signal with Jason v0.92 last night. Of course it was perfect at this range so there didn't seem much point in giving a report.
Like you I saw nothing of IK2DED, but that might be because I had forgotten to change to the Slow Option, thinking that it was kept from run to run once it had been set. A 233 MHz Pentium is not fast enough for the Normal (fast) option unfortunately.
When Johan can get round to coding the new PIC software I will have a go at transmitting using my G0MRF DDS, but for now am keen to listen for some remote stations. Looks like the frequencies are agreed, we just need some schedules please?

Greetings,

I find the best tool for sticking down fine-pitch parts is an intern.
But that's cheating, really.  There is one truly gruesome,
cringe-worthy technique that I've used when pushed, and always
successfully, to stick dsps and fpgas down.  It takes a bit of nerve.

With best eyeballs, aided or otherwise, line up the chip onto the
pads; restrain it (g-cramp etc.) such that it won't budge.  With a
normal-sized iron (no need for a really teensy tip at this point)
solder all the pins along each side in turn down onto all the pads;
the result will be a solid bar of solder along each side of the chip,
engulfing the pins.  Naturally, don't go overboard, but all the
adjacent pins will be stuck to each other as well as the pins being
stuck to their appropriate pads.  Try not to panic or cry.

The next phase is to use solder-wick (the real stuff, not coax
braid) to drain off the excess solder;  gently slide the wick in line
with the pins, not sideways 'against the grain', methodically around
the chip.  Use a magnifying glass to peer between the pins for
sneaky bridges;  wick more if you have to.

Any human attempt at laying these things down will always result
in a long period of squinting, cleaning and picking between its teeth
with a scalpel, including this,  but it is amazing how well this horrible 
method works.  Never lost a device.  Oh, except for the dsp on which 
a mold ejection dimple was more prominent than the 'pin 1' marker, 
resulting in an 80-pin part glued on 180 degrees out . . .

        Cheers,

                Steve

The bare JNT PCB is available from HF Instruments.  I don't know if the chip
is pin-compatible.  You can solder it on with a steady hand and a fine
soldering iron (if you're careful).  Andy JNT managed it with a home-made
PCB!

Also, HF will be getting some more 9850s in about 2 weeks time.

Greetings All:

This discussion of DDS chips reminds me of a problem I have here.  I have 
two, very nice TOYOCOM TCO-512K oscillator modules.  I want to put these to 
work here.  The output waveform looks like this on the Scope I have here

x             x                x
  x            x  x            x
   x           x   x           x      etc.  The waveform looks almost 
exactly like a right angle triangle.
    x          x    x          x
     xxxxxxx     xxxxxxx
       ^       ^        ^
The up arrows are the beginning of a cycle, the middle of the cycle, the 
end of the cycle.

What will this type of waveform do to the 9850?  Does the 9850 want a 50% 
duty cycle? or can I put this kind of wave form into the 9850 without risk?

These are very high quality units, they were the frequency determining 
elements in an early analogue cellular radio system (Swedish system), but I 
am at a loss to understand this waveform on the output.  I have tried 
different loadings on the output (10K to 50 ohms) and it seems to stay very 
close to the same,

If this waveform is not suitable is there a simple way to add something to 
make the waveform a square wave with 50% duty cycle?

Dear Brian,

So if I transmit a beacon signal on 135.91 at around 2000utc this evening, 
would that be OK?

There was a techniques described a couple of years ago for using these chips
dead bug style.  Mount the chip upside down on a piece of unetched PCB.
Bend the grounding pins down and solder directly to the groundplane.  Then
get some 0805 chip capacitors and solder one end of these, standing upright,
to the groundplane as close to the power supply pins as possible.  Then
using thin wire - eg a single strand of multistranded wire - connect the
appropriate pins direct to the caps; then the signal pins to the rest of the
circuit.  This can give an RF layout every bit as good as a proper double
sided PCB.  It looks messy, but so what, it works !

No, sorry,  we had a lab wirebonder.  It always needed cleaning before use
as there was inevitably some individual that had left it in a dirty state
with the covers off.

No endorsement, but noticed this on one of the newsgroups a few weeks ago:

Larry and Andy,

  thanks for the encouragement. I think to have a steady hand, so will
buy one of those nice moveable round neon lamps with a magnifier inside,
an ultrafine tip for my Weller soldering station, and start practicing with
dead bugs, errr chips...

But one problem remain. I have produced myself some PCBs using
the photosensitive lacquer on the laminated copper, exposing, then
etching it. But this technique, coupled with the limited resolution of
the ink jet or laser printers that can be used to produce the master,
is not precise enough for such fine and closely spaced fingers...
Are you aware of any possibility to buy online a PCB ready made
for the AD9854 ? It would suffice a layout that brings all the pins
to more manageable pads where to connect the rest of the circuit.
I checked the Analog Devices site, but they have (for an outrageous
price...) only an evaluation board for the 9854, complete with the chip.

I hope you didn't do that with unaided hands... otherwise I will dub
you SuperMan..:-)

Jim,

I was watching your frequency last night but saw nothing identifiable. 
I have loran lines close to .910 that are strong enough to make JASON
copy difficult.  I spent some time moving up the band looking for a
better frequency.  For me 135.990 is about the best I found between
135.900 to 136.000 but even so that frequency isn't clear.  No need to
move on my account for tonight since there will probably be a lot of QRN
in my area.  I will continue to look at the band for a slot that is
clear here.

Now I've fallen into the trap and done it myself !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
:-((

We need to check the subject line of messages when posting to this
reflector.  There have been a whole string of interesting postings about
DDS's, all with the "Radiated power" subject line - which normally would get
deleted unread here.

Let's see how many postings have the subject   "Re:Subject : Subject lines"

Take the plunge. Get yourself a good headband magnifier and a fine bit for
your soldering iron.  The standard 1.27mm pin spacing SMT devices are then
no trouble.  But I have to admit the 0.635 spacing of these DDS chips does
need a steady hand.

In my last job I did a bit of chip and bond microwave circuitry.  Now that
really IS small !  Bonding 25 micron gold wire onto 0.1mm pads on bare
GaAsFET chips.  
Some amateurs are doing this now, (using surplus wire bonders), to get on
the 76GHz band.

Klaus,
      thanks for the explanations. Waiting for your promised post,
as I happen to have Matlab 5.0, I would like to receive your
interactive course on the subject. And please enclose also the Matlab
routine to solve the diophantine equation (shades of Fermat, I do
hope it won't require an homomorphism with the modular forms...:-)
to find the base step generators for the sin/cos tables.

Thanks

Alberto:

I had one of the kit G4JNT boards and I looked at it and nearly died with 
fright.  I have vision limitations here, and my stiff old fingers are not 
much good anymore....but I borrowed the some optics, from my local 
physician and I practiced on some dead MODEM and LAN Cards and I bought 
some special tiny tips for my Ungar soldering iron, some special tiny 
solder, some special liquid flux (for electronic work) and I managed to get 
the 9850 into the right place.  I put in several hours with the lamps 
moving them around inspecting the slots between the foils and the now 
soldered wire pins.  I found one bad one, and with  about half an hour I 
managed to do the trick of cleaning out the bridge.  I had zero problem 
getting the SMD parts into place after getting the 9850 stuck in the right 
place.  I had to use three different B&L eyepieces to see the 9850 stuff, 
and it took practice to miss the eyepiece and hit the 9850 wire pin with 
the soldering iron, but I did it and it works.

The biggest trick here, was to get the PC pads for the 9850 tinned and in 
place and then to hold the 9850 still while I got the three of the corners 
soldered down, once that was done it was smooth sailing so to speak.  The 
process is to setup a work facility, old plywood and drywall screws so the 
work is at the right height when I am sitting down and then to make up the 
bits and jigs to hold everything in place.  I made good use of my Dremmel 
tool to fabricate the little clamp bits etc.  One thing I did was make a 
place in the box I built for my table here was a place to put my chin so I 
could hold my head still.  This was very important for me.  Yes it was 
certainly not my choice of activity but I did get it done.

My sense is that if I can do it almost anyone can.  I used to watch a guy 
who did actual repairs to the dice in IC's.  He used to put spare gates and 
transistors around the outside of experimental IC's and then when an error 
was found he would "repair" the IC, now he had it rough.  I figured if he 
could pull that off I could repair anything built with those things hi.

Lets put it this way, if you try and succeed then you have an AD9854 with 
its I and Q outputs, and I would prefer you to have a 9854 with those 
capabilities hi.  Alternatively you could send the 54 to Andy and he would 
I am sure get it going, or as a last case you can send me the 54 and I will 
take a run at it.  You have options hi.

Dear Jim,

May I look at it the other way?  137.5xxx is an absolute mass of lines here.

I have already an Yahoo ID and tried to post to that group. Unfortunately
the post was rejected, being it in HTML (it contained a small captured image).
It is a vexata quaestio (latin for debated problem) whether HTML posts should
be allowed or not in discussion groups. My personal opinion is yes, but I can
understand the position of the nay-sayers. There is not an easy answer...

I have in my drawer an AD9854, obtained as sample from Analog Device.
Problem is, I am horrified at the very thought of having to produce a PCB
for it, let alone soldering it.... SMD make life difficult for the hobbyists, I am
afraid.....:-(

Dear LF Group,

Thanks to I2PHD, DJ8WX, NL9222, G3NYK for the reports and images, and to 
anybody else who was watching for my Jason v0.92 test sigs. I transmitted 
on 137.510 from about 2030 - 2210, and on 135.910 from about 2300 - 0200.

I also looked out for IK2DED from 2000 until 2030, but saw nothing - not 
surprising bearing in mind the message Alberto copied! F6BWO was active 
around 136.922 with QRSS10. I saw an unidentified "digital" signal on about 
136.8, which appeared as about 7 or 8 carriers spaced over about 100Hz - 
after a while, this reverted to a single carrier. Also saw another 
"digital" signal, presumably SXV on about 135.7 - this appeared as a large 
number of carriers spaced a few Hz and occupying about 100Hz bandwidth, 
sounding like a lot of RTTY signals having an argument.

I can run the beacon again tonight in anyone is interested - is 135.910kHz 
a good frequency, or is there a better one?

Cheers, Jim Moritz

The first URL seems to require getting a Yahoo ID and entering a lot of
information I'm not preparred to give - is this necessary ?

The second URL seems a lot easier - just asking for an EMail address.

If you can get the 51, grab it, if you can get the 52, 53 or 54 grab the 
highest number you can.  each one is better than my 9250.  The higher 
numbers let you use a lower reference frequency for controlling a higher 
output frequency , ie much greater than .45 of the reference frequency for 
the 9250.

Hello and thanks for the replies!

As a lecturer, I never present all that can be said, and when 
posting the idea of a DDS basing on the Chinese Remainder Theorem, 
I hoped to get response.  And it was my feeling, Alberto will ask, 
how to get the phase increment. He did it, and Zim contributed the 
example and a very useful link.  Thanks! That is encouragement 
to set my priorities new. 

My problem is lack of time.  So, what I shall do is:  first try to 
answer your questions here directly, and second, hopefully, post 
something in a readable form later somewhere.

Indeed, Chapter 12 of my course material on Digital Signal Processing 
is "Direct Digital Synthesis".  The material is completely made for 
interactive e-learning.  It is not public domain, but for private use 
in the ham-radio area, I have no problem to send it on request.  But 
it requires MATLAB (5.0 or higher, Student Edition works o.k.).  You 
will not be able to see the text or any of the graphs and movies or 
hear the audio or change anything interactively without MATLAB.  
The Chapter 12 alone containes nearly a hundred computer pages, all 
in German, sorry.  To press this into a stone-aged dead read-only 
paper is not so easy. 

Now to the question of Alberto:

Let  z(k)  (k=1,...,n)  be  n  different numbers that are used as 
length of cos/sin-tables and let p(k) be the natural phase increments 
within these tables.  No two of the z(k) should have any factor in 
common.  Prime numbers for p(k) are optimal for best SFDR, but not 
required.  For shortness, we set Z = product of all z(k). 

To get the p(k), two steps have to be done:

(1) Determine the p(k) for generation of the smallest possible 
    positive frequency, the frequency step  df = fs/Z  (fs = sampling 
    frequency).  We denote them  p1(k).

(2) Determine the p(k) for generation of frequency  f = m * df .

Let me start with the second (2). The  p(k)  are simply  m*p1(k). But 
m and p1(k) possibly are large, so the angles  m*p1(k) can be very 
large, i.e. many wrap-arounds in the table of length z(k) plus a 
remainder. We therefore only take the remainder:

p(k) = remainder of division ( m*p1(k) / z(k) )

Example:   n=3;  z(1)=29;  z(2)=83;  z(3)=599;  Z=1441793;
                p1(1)=8;  p1(2)=45; p1(3)=109;
           fs = 11025 Hz;   df = 11025/1441793 = 0.007647 Hz
            f = 800 Hz;      m = round(f/df) = 104620;
           p(1)= remainder of division  (  8 * 104620) / 29  =  20
           p(2)= remainder of division  ( 45 * 104620) / 83  =  57
           p(3)= remainder of division  (109 * 104620) /599  = 417

Proof:  The three individual tables yield with the computed increment 
the frequencies fs*20/29=7603.4; fs*57/83=7571.4; fs*417/599=7675.2 Hz
The sum of them modulo the sampling frequency fs is 800.000763 Hz. 
Because the signals are complex (cos + i*sin) there is no alias or 
mirror within the frequency interval  0 ... fs.
                 
The computation (1) of the  p1(k) is not so easy, but it has to be 
done only once.  The table k with the increment p1(k) yields the 
relative frequency  f1(k)/fs = p(k)/z(k).  The product of all complex 
(cos + i*sin)-waves gives the sum of all these frequencies.  This sum 
must be equal to the relative frequency step  df/fs = 1/Z.  
Multiplying the resulting equation by Z yields

         remainder of  ( sum of all  Z*p1(k)/z(k) ) / Z )  =  1 

This is an equation that is to be solved with natural numbers  p1(k). 
Equations of this type are called diophantine after Diophantos from 
Alexandria.  Zim found the link to a mathematical discussion of this 
problem by E.L. Lady.  I made a simple MATLAB-function that solves 
the problem. It is available on request.


And here the answer to John, G4CNN

My post surely was a bit cryptic and misunderstanding was probable. 
Indeed, the frequency is divided in steps of fs/29 by the first 
generator. But the others are in parallel, and not serial. So they 
generate fs/83 and fs/599 as their frequency steps, not a finer and 
finer division of the first.  Therefore the Chinese Remainder Theorem 
is required, but you are right, prime numbers are not necessary.

Sorry for the cryptic assembly program.  It performs the two complex 
multiplications and additions per otput sample and in parrallel the 
6 table look ups, the 3 phase increments, and the write into an 
output buffer with auto-increment of its address.  It is fascinating 
for me to see all the many parts of the old DSP-architecture 100% 
busy in every clock cycle, such that this processor can generate sin 
and cos up to an output frequency of 2.5 MHz with a processor clock 
of 40 MHz.


Now the question of Zim

No. In your case (and in that I posted) we use a phase accumulator 
that is used as address into a table without cutting away lower 
bits as it must be done in conventional DDS design in order to 
obtain both, small frequency step and resonably small table.

In your as in my case there is definitely no phase jitter. The 
SFDR only is produced by the quantization of the cos/sin-values 
in the table and by the arithmetic. And here is the advantage 
of primes for table lengths:  with any phase step the table is 
stepped through all values of the table thereby averaging the 
effect of quantization.  

(As an exercise design a DDS that requires less than 1k memory for 
fs = 44100 Hz  and  df = 1.000000 Hz)

The only difference is that Jason goes 5 times faster than QRSS (at same SNR).
Or if you want ho transmit a certain text within a certain timeframe, Jason
will produce a 7dB better SNR compared to QRSS.
To achieve 7dB improvement by just increasing power I would have to go from
the current 400W I'm running to 2kW, so Jason has clearly a big advantage
for me (and maybe I'm not the only one).

I really appreciate the work done by the software developers (such als
Alberto and Wolf) and those who often do the first tests and investigate
propagation (many at both sides of the pond ...). They pave the path that
other (such as xxx) can easily walk on afterward.

Dear Klaus,

Like John G4CNN, I have been thinking about your CRT DDS scheme..

Firstly, a rather long winded recap on DDS/NCO operation:

Assuming a simple DDS with an 8 bit latch and an 8192 Hz clock.

With the smallest possible increment (one), the counter goes through 256
steps before wrapping around the unit circle. At each step the Latch reading
is used to look up a value in the ROM. The ROM table contains one full cycle
of a Sine Wave.

With an Increment of one, the output goes through a full Sinewave every 256
clock pulses and thus (in our example) generates 32 Hz.

The maximum possible output frequency is where only two steps occur each
unit circle, thus the Max frequency is half the clock frequency (4096Hz).
This occurs at an increment of 128.

Intermediate steps thus give an output range from 32Hz to 4096Hz, with 128
steps
every 32Hz. (The frequency step size is given by dividing the Clock
frequency by the max latch count).

In the special case where the increment value is a power of two (1,2,4,8,16,
etc),
 the DDS steps land exactly on the minima and maxima of the wave (eg
includes counts of 0, 64, 128, 193, 256). At all other frequencies the
samples
miss the min/max/zero and thus the output contains some jitter
(unless considerable "Q" is available to act as a Flywheel).

The above is (I think) the Address Quantitisation which Klaus mentions.

I am guessing that Klaus has discovered a system where the effective
Latch size is changing for each different frequency, thus ensuring that
the generated wave always has samples at the peaks and troughs.

Is this correct so far Klaus ???

But then perhaps I am on the wrong track completely.

It is with regret that I must withdraw from the LF net.  My computer gets
choked up with far too many messages if I am away for even a short while. 
I remain at this email address for any personal messages.

> This power measuring game could throw up some surprises !!!!! especially

> many JEEPS about !!

Bang goes my New Year's resolution.
I did say that I would never get involved in this awful KEV stuff that is
polluting our reflector, but feel that I must say something. Otherwise you
get the situation (as history shows) where if a lie is told often enough it
becomes the 'truth'. Real truth is worth defending.

As regards transmitted power, as we are all aware (except for one) ERP is a
function of transmitted power and antenna size - the larger the antenna the
less power is required to reach the 1w ERP level. For a suburban sized
antenna you need a transmitter power greater than 1kW and several high power
transmitters were built. Two of these, one by G3KAU and the other by G3YXM
are shown in "The Low Frequency Experimenter's Handbook" pages 12 and 40. An
interesting design was shown in the "LF Experimenter's Source Book"
(forerunner of LFEH) by G3LNP which ran 4kV to the anode of a QYS-3000 to
produce 3kW O/P. He had calculated he needed that sort of power to get 1w
ERP from a simple vertical antenna.
By making the Decca transmitters available, G3JKV made a valuable
contribution to the LF community by showing us commercial design techniques,
such as the PA bridge configuration, tank circuit design and guard circuit
that were subsequently incorporated into the G4JNT high power transmitter.

I use a Decca transmitter but find it difficult to hit 1w ERP level. The
antenna is shown on page 57 of LFEH and has a calculated gain of -24dB1.
With 6.5amps I get a calculated 1.49w into the radiation resistance of the
antenna. However environmental effects such as trees reduce this by about a
half, which gives an ERP of around 800mW.  This sort of power is only
achieved when the weather is relatively dry.

G3KEV's antenna has been described many times but the power and the antenna
current have not. The antenna is described as:

"The antenna I have been using for the recent Transatlantic QSO'S consists
of 4 inverted L's supported by a lattice tower at 105 ft high. Each L is 105
ft vertical and each one has a horizontal top section of

 300 ft. The 4 vertical bottom ends converge to a common feed point 4 ft
above ground, connected to about 400 micro henry loading coil and has a
small series coil to ground used for resonating and fine tuning to get a 1:1
SWR.
Ground Radials consist of several 300 ft insulated wires, some connected  at
the far end to sheep fencing. All the wire for antennas and radials is 2.5
mm insulated. The 4 inv L's are spaced at 90 degrees from each other around
the tower."

This antenna has a calculated gain (assuming good ground) of -16.6dBi. I am
not sure what transmitter is being used but a couple of years ago it was
400w. If this were connected to the antenna it would result in antenna
current of 3.5A and a calculated 3.8w into the radiation resistance of the
antenna. However if there are tall trees around the site this could reduce
it to around 2w ERP.

G3KEV has recently discovered transatlantic QSOs using QRSS:

"Solid fast QRS qso with VE1ZJ at 2 sec dot, almost there on normal CW. The
xband QSO only took a few minutes 136/7025 kHz solid copy both ways. I
understand previous QSO's took hours and days to complete."

The only QSO that I am aware of that took place over days was the 136kHz 2
way between G3AQC and VA3LK.
My QSOs, according to the log are as follows:
29/9/00 VE1ZJ on 14.043kHz, G3LDO on QRSS3, QSO time around 20mins
13/2/01 VE1ZZ on QRSS3, G3LDO on QRSS10, 136kHz 2 way. (VE3ZJ receiver link
via 80m) QSO time 50mins
21/2/01 VE1ZZ on QRSS3 136kHz G3LDO on 3512kHz QSO time 15mins.

I am not getting involved in this stuff any more - I will go and join the
silent majority.

Regards,
Peter, G3LDO

Dear All,

now seems an appropriate time to repeat the invitation to join the "LF
Experimenters Group".    This group has been running for almost 3 years now
and has been very successful for exchanging information pertaining to LF,
including newbie help, discussions of new experimental efforts and
notification of test schedules.   It has a wide mix of subscribers from all
over the world.    The group runs under a strict "Freedom of Association"
policy requiring members to allow others to use the group without fear of
abuse, derision or petty jealousy exchanges.    This policy has been
respected without any need for intervention by all members for nearly three
years.   It has been proven that it can be done.

To subscribe go to:-

http://groups.yahoo.com/group/lofexp/

or

http://www.zeta.org.au/~ollaneg/lf/lofexp.htm

Interested parties might start by parallel posting and over time do a
comparison of speed and quality and freely make their own assessment.

So I'll take that as a tentative "yes" then? I'll try 135.910kHz +/- for a 
couple of hours at least starting from 2300.

During the day,  I use my 8m high, 40m long inverted L. At night, while the 
neighbors can't complain about aerials spoiling the view, I put up a 13m 
high mast under the middle of the top wire, raising it up into an inverted 
L configuration. This increases the radiated signal level by about 4dB over 
the daytime level. I'm sure most readers of this reflector heard quite 
enough about the 300+ field strength measurements I made on this antenna a 
few months ago to establish ERPs, losses, etc., but suffice it to say that 
on 136k, running my maximum 1200W, my "daytime" ERP is 400mW, and "night 
time" ERP is 1W. On wet days, these levels fall by a dB or two due to 
increased losses.

So what's your ERP?

Cheers, Jim Moritz

Dont swamp the QRS operators with 4hz B/W signal around 135.923 plus/minus, this
has happened
before with the 7 level fsk, and is not appreciated. To night there is also psk31
around this freq area.
If its going to be a free for all in this area I and others may as well try ,
Ptor,Packet and SSB.
Either stick to some sort of frequency plan or be prepared for the worst, and dont
forget Jim your signal at night time when you QRO or wind your antenna up, you are
nearly as strong here as
MM0ALM, except he does not work in this area and swamp others.
Pick another frequency up the band preferably above 137 khz and there should not
be a problem
using Jason. I cannot see any advantage using Jason with a 4 hz BW over QRS using
a fraction of this. For the appliance operator it is more convenient, you do not
have to struggle reading the dots and dashes off the screen.

Spot on Jim.
Ref your recent power measurements on the MM0ALM signal and observations.
I have measured you power and observed two readings. One set of figures during
daytime and weekend normal CW acty and another at night when you are on beacon
for TA tests on QRS and Measles mode.
You obviously keep the power down during normal CW but at night you are very
strong. I will not
declare here what the figures are but what measurements would you expect me to
get at this distance
I will tell you if you are correct. One thing I can say you are not far behind
MM0ALM at night time.
This power measuring game could throw up some surprises !!!!! especially with so
many JEEPS about !!

Hi Klaus,
I have been trying to understand your scheme and find that:
1) The Chinese Remainder Theorem is not necessary, since the scheme will work even if the divisions are not co-prime. What you are effectively doing is dividing the frequency range of 11025 Hz into 29 steps, then each of these into 83 smaller steps and then each of these into 599 even smaller steps and it is obvious that this will cover the range whatever the 3 numbers are, but it would be best if they were multiple factors of 11025 so as to give integral steps, e.g. 105 x 105 x 200 which would make the smallest steps 5mHz.
2) You say that the "analytical outputs" (whatever they are) are multiplied together, whereas I find that if you add the fractions from your table for Jason and multiply by 11025 (modulo 11025) you obtain the frequencies listed in the table. The table entries for column 1 advance 3 , for column 2 go back 9 and for column 3 advance 3 for each step (modulo the column step size), so it is clearly arithmetic.
3) The error column appears to be in error. All the entries are almost the same and not the difference between the calculated value and that required for Jason.
4) The little program at the end would not be so obscure if it were written in plain language.

If I am wrong you will surely tell me. The idea of using a Vernier though is a good one.
By the way, the reference from Graeme Zimmer concerning the Chinese Remainder Theorem is excellent, very well expressed. The only thing that is missing is the method of finding the solution other than just trial and error, which is Euclid's Algorithm. Since this is hardly the place for lessons in Number Theory, I will refrain from explaining it. Anyone who really feels he needs to know can email me privately.
Hope you find this helpful.

73 John,  G4CNN

Dear LF Group,

I successfully tested Jason 0.92 with 1.2kW TX out last night (If anyone 
was listening, at around 0400 - don't ask!). So I will give it a go tonight 
if anyone is interested. I will try and catch IK2DED on 137.52 - otherwise 
I'll try 137.510kHz. The frequency seems to be accurate within 1Hz or so, 
although it is a bit hard to tell. The waterfall display looks a lot 
clearer in the latest version, and the USB/LSB options checked out fb as well.

If any of the North American guys would like to try for trans-atlantic 
Jason reception, I could run a beacon signal for a few hours around 
midnight - frequency perhaps 135.910 (4Hz BW). Let me know if this is of 
any interest, and whether this frequency is any good at your end.

BTW, I think I asked before, but don't recall any responses - can anyone 
recommend PSK31 software that has the TX phase keying signal available as a 
logic level output? Since my TX will generate BPSK with appropriate 
envelope shaping I would like to try this mode; but a sound card output 
would be a bit messy - demodulate the audio signal, recover the phase data, 
feed into LF TX modulator... a bit of wire would be so much easier!

Cheers, Jim Moritz

Walter.
If you are so desperate to shoot the other man down please try and get
your
facts right, this is not the first time you got muddled figures. I
suggest with
your calculation there could be the usual
plus/minus 10 db tolerance, and therefore the person to whom you refer
would be
running the permitted power.
I do think one should stick to the permitted power but all amateur bands
must be
considered and not just LF. Why single out LF ?
The specification for the majority of RF amplifiers advertised are at
least
twice the permitted power.
and the Decca is no exception 1.2 kw plus output into a reasonable
antenna would
exceed the 1W
erp. If some are claiming to be running less ERP then the antennas and
ground
radial system must be
so inefficient and hardly worth the effort. I would not like to make a
judgement
about anyone and their power because it is so difficult to be accurate
at a
distance, theory and practical can be miles apart.
If it could be proved that some were running over the permitted power to
obtain
awards, they should be disqualified, and that applies to all amateur
bands, not
just LF.
Some claiming awards in the past on LF seem to set lower standards than
on other
bands. A qso is allowed to take days and weeks to complete by joining
bits and
pieces heard/seen each day until a full callsign is put together. It has
been
proved lately that this is not necessary and a qso TA for instance can
take
place in a very short space of time eg minutes and possibly a couple of
hours
for the slower QRS speeds. As far as I and other DXers that I speak to
privately
are concerned this extended qso business is not acceptable for any
award,
however if a group of persons want to make private rules and award each
other
presents then so be it, as long as others know there is another side to
the
story.

Hi all, Reino advises that he cannot work above about 136.8 due to the qrm
from Sylt Loran and Utility stations. He is regularly active on morse in the
early evening with a good signal, but does not seem to get many 'takers'.
This shows why we cannot have a 'set in stone' plan for the
band.....different areas have different problems.

And goes to 180MHz clock frequency rather than 120MHz for the AD9850.

The driver PIC software for the DDS module defaults to Multiplier Off, so
the 9851 can be used as a drop in replacement.  I can supply a version of
the PIC software that sets the x6 multiplier On if anyone wants this.

As W1TAG pointed out, a US colour (or should that be color :-) subcarrier
crystal at 3.579...MHz can be pulled to give 'nice' frequency steps.  When
used with the x6 multiplier option it will result in a clock frequency that
gives a DDS step interval of exactly 0.05Hz

They said the same to me, but they added that they have the AD9851
model, which is an AD9850 plus an internal clock multiplier.

Thank you Walter.  Living South of Staples Corner, I did consider finding out
if what was said amounted to more than common abuse, but what would
that have added to LF?  What does this constant bickering add?  A bit like
the tabloids, spice on the mornings e-mails if that is what is sought but
very annoying to some.

More to the point, my monitoring system has a rebuilt computer which
seems to be behaving so there is again a record of approximate field
strength of various signals including the T/A slot.  I am hoping to add
a few more slots.  I try to publish daily the last 24 hours recordings
and Alan G3NYK has the data on DCF39 for long term analysis.
Also for what it is worth there is a description of my station on the
same web pages and it has been there since the site was established.

Last but not least, if anybody has an AD9850 from HF Instruments
which is excess to their requirements please e-mail me directly.
Apparently HF Instruments have just sold their last unit.

Yes, according to a direct e-mail from Reino, this was a test transmission.

I also heard him testing Jason later in the evening. He was struggling with the
settings in Jason 0.92. He will try again tonight, hopefully with TX Mult. Factor = 1...
(He is using a -10MHz transverter).

20 LOG (V1/V2)= 20dB down 

About 10 Watts - but still a lot.

We all fall into that dB trap from time to time I bet !!!!!!!

Andy


An interesting number:

If Jim's measurement of MM0ALM's field strength is right, at 50 uV/m, and 
assuming the distance between them is 600 kms mainly over a standard 
medium-conductivity land path then :

According to the CCIR standard propagation curves (Vol 5, "Propagation in 
non-ionised media", Recommendation 368-4)  a radiated power of 1 kW at 136 
kHz  from a short vertically-polarised monopole would produce a field 
strength at Jim's distance  of 500 uV/m.

Jim measured 50 uV/m so MM0ALM's radiated power must be 10 dB below 1 kW - 
100 watts.  Jim's measurements I have found to be pretty accurate in the 
past but if anyone else can make accurate field strength measurements 
perhaps they would do so next time MM0ALM comes on.

Walter,

I would say 20dB below 1kW - 10 watts.

10dB less illegal but still too much...

Hello Walter,

Isn't 50uV/m 20dB down on 500uV/m ?
So if 500uV/m equals 1kW raditated power then 50uV/m equals 10 Watt
radiated power.

An interesting number:

If Jim's measurement of MM0ALM's field strength is right, at 50 uV/m, and 
assuming the distance between them is 600 kms mainly over a standard 
medium-conductivity land path then :

According to the CCIR standard propagation curves (Vol 5, "Propagation in 
non-ionised media", Recommendation 368-4)  a radiated power of 1 kW at 136 
kHz  from a short vertically-polarised monopole would produce a field 
strength at Jim's distance  of 500 uV/m.

Jim measured 50 uV/m so MM0ALM's radiated power must be 10 dB below 1 kW - 
100 watts.  Jim's measurements I have found to be pretty accurate in the 
past but if anyone else can make accurate field strength measurements 
perhaps they would do so next time MM0ALM comes on.

I've made my own measurements and they agree with Jim's. I've also measured 
field strengths of a number of "local" stations and knowing  exactly what 
they're using for transmitters and antenna systems the results tie up 
pretty closely (including, by the way, confirming G3AQC's statements about 
his power). NONE of the locals I measured were exceeding 1w radiated.

What people choose to radiate is up to them and the RA but let's not have 
any boasting about DX worked when they've been using illegal powers. They 
should note that, as per above, and unlike HF, it is not that difficult to 
estimate pretty closely what they're radiating -  one advantage of basing 
the licence on radiated and not "DC input" power. Of course, if MM0ALM 
holds a "high-power" NOV then good luck to him but he should declare it.

Might also be worth noting that any DX records made while using illegal 
powers are invalid and will not be recorded.

Perhaps anyone who thinks he's being slandered would publish full details 
of his transmitter, antenna and earth system and let others make their own 
judgements. Far better than just hurling insults around.

Walter G3JKV.

Hello group,
   I have just received a message from Giulio IK2DED, a
newcomer in the LF field, but well equipped, that this
evening (Tuesday) he will make a transmission using
Jason, from 20:00 to 20:30 UTC, at 137.520 kHz

He asks for reception reports.
Next Saturday and Sunday there will be an ham fair near
Milano, and we have there a boot where we will show to the
visitors the LF world (CW, QRSS, Jason, etc.)
We have arranged some test transmissions from Giulio
and maybe Cesare I5TGC, but you all are invited,
if you can, to make the band a bit active on Saturday
and Sunday using any Tx mode.   Thanks.

73 Alberto  I2PHD

I assume on this frequency it was a test transmission.  If he had been looking for a
QSO he would have operated in the data section (137.4-137.6).  See

Hi agn,

Reino just replied via LF PSK31 to my e-mail report!

Does this count as a valid QSO Malcolm?

(Probably not as he changed callsign from OH1TN to
OH5UFO in the middle of the QSO ;-)

Come on chaps.    Try to have a little compassion for petite mal.   What we
are witnessing here is a desperate attempt to throw up a smoke-screen from a
self-described lazy man's CW appliance Grade 3 operator.     Having proved
that petite mal is not big enough to acknowledge the foresight of those he
derided in the past and on whose hard work he is now riding to his own
advantage, he is a desperate man.    How about sparing a bit of your
abundant free time to do acknowledge those people, instead of trying to
through up a smoke screen to hide your red face petite mal ?

BTW, didn't get a reply to my "humour" petite mal.    Only like it when you
are giving it out ?   Surely you are not petite in that department as well
:-)

Expect to see the following "political" strategy from petite mal:-

1.    Droning on about how he is doing better than those in the past.   Over
here we have a mature respect for those that have gone before and done all
the hard work for us.   Not petite mal.    petite mal is quite happy to bag
anyone who dares to forge ahead of him in any endeavour, only to claim their
hard work for his own later.

2.    Droning on with the 53rd description of his antenna installation
(apparently free from any commercial input - must have admiration for
someone who has forged the steel pipe and hand-drawn the copper wire
himself, as well as using his own hand-made electronic components).

3.   Droning on deriding those not on the official petite mal approval list.

4.   Slow modification of the dividing line between "normal" CW and QRSS.
Was originally about 5 wpm,   slowly working its way downwards.    Expect to
see the final petite mal definition of "normal" CW to be whatever rate
petite mal uses.     Got to get himself out of the lazy man's CW appliance
Grade 3 operator (his own definition remember) category somehow.

So brace yourself for a long drawn out general harangue-driven smoke screen
from the Tullywiggan Twitterer, he has an ENORMOUS hole to dig himself out
of :-)    Should drone on for months yet :-)    Drag on the wellingtons to
keep your feet from getting soiled :-)

P.S.    petite mal - you seem so desperate to cover up your self-annointed
lazy man's CW appliance Grade 3 operator status.    What other "short
comings" are you trying to hide mate ? (;-o)

P.P.S.  Remember petite mal's broadcasts here are 99% political - I don't
know about elsewhere - but over here politicians are only one rung up on the
evolutionary ladder from earthworms, so petite mal's verbal sprays should be
view in a compassionate light :-)

Big signals received at my QTH in order.
1 MM0ALM
2 M0BMU - Jeep running well Jim, keep changing the oil hi
3 G3YMX

The rest even with their JEEPS flat out are but a whisper in the night,
I often wonder how they ever make it across the Pond, I expect that is
why it takes days and weeks to stitch the qso together.
Those keying the Decca via the transceiver(drive on/off) are generating
louder key clicks than signal.
It must be fun listening to all of this on the local LF/VHF repeater,
thankfully I am well out of range.

What was the name of the amateur somewhere in Canada VA something,  that
had his repeater in the middle of the Atlantic. Did that count as a
Fixed or /MM qso. Not heard him for a long time perhaps the repeater has
sunk or the wind and snow has swept it away.

Of course, any self-respecting, competent CW operator (well, allright, CW

I second that ! Really a clever idea. Thanks also to Zim for the pointer
to the Chinese Remainder Theorem.

Klaus, do you have any document that explains how to choose
the three prime numbers used for the length of the sin/cos tables, and how
to compute the phase increment for each, as a function of the wanted output
frequency.  Thanks.

More on Chinese Remainder Theorem .........

I found two different translations for  "The Song of Master Sun"

"3 men walk together for 70 miles 
5 plum trees blossom 21 branches 
7 persons reunion at June 15 
Circulating at a period of 105"

"Three septuagenarians walking together, 'tis rare!
Five plum trees with twenty one branches in flower,
Seven disciples gathering right by the half-moon,
One hundred and five taken away, lo the result shall appear!"

In DFCW it would be a length of 40 dots so :
DFCW3 = 2 min 0 sec
DFCW10 = 6 min 40 sec
DFCW60 = 40 min

If we simplify a bit and assume that SNR is only determined by the
dotlength we would have to compare Jason with QRSS12 or DFCW12 :
QRSS12 = 21 min 12 sec
DFCW12 = 8 min 0 sec
Jason = 4 min 24 sec (I count only 11 characters)

The other way arround, if we want to transmit the text at the same speed as
Jason we would need to use QRSS at 2.5 sec/dot or DFCW at 6.6 sec/dot.
This would make QRSS about 6.8dB and DFCW about 2.6dB inferior to Jason.
In the real world the differences will be a bit less since Jason is using a
larger bandwidth.

Solid fast QRS qso with VE1ZJ at 2 sec dot, almost there on normal CW.
The xband QSO only took a few minutes 136/7025 khz solid copy both ways.
I understand previous QSO'S took hours and days to complete.

There have always been BIG antennas around in Amateur circles, I could mention
20 Amateurs using Big installations that would rival any commercial station.

Ever since some Amateurs started using the DECCA JEEP (5501) transmitters at 1.2
- 1.5 kw rf output the 1W erp limit seemed not to apply. I believe everyone
south of Watford uses one.

You must lead a sheltered life.
The DECCA JEEP alias 5501 tx, is a brother of the MARCONI JEEP alias T1154.
Surprised you did not know this. Some say JEEP should read JUNK

MM0ALM was a very big signal here at the weekend; about 25uV/m near 
Hatfield, certainly impressive.

I heard OH5UFO calling CQ using QRSS3 late one night a week or so ago - 
also a strong signal. I called him, but got no response, so perhaps Reino 
had dozed off - a problem I have had myself more than once :-)

I put together a frequency-shifting device over the weekend; it takes a 
signal at about 5kHz from a sound card and shifts it into the 136kHz range. 
I hope to use it to do some tests using Jason 0.92 over the next couple of 
days - as soon as I remember what all those wires trailing around my shack 
do, and figure out a sensible way of connecting it all up!

Cheers, Jim Moritz

Digital Sin/Cos-Synthesis using the Chinese remainder theorem
=============================================================

A fundamental discussion upon the principles and drawbacks of 
Direct Digital Synthesis about one and a half year ago on this 
reflector inspired me to an investigation in this field. 
A number-theoretic approach led me to a new synthesis that 
in most cases is superior to classic DDS in three respects:
Spurious free dynamic range (SFDR), speed, and requirement of 
memory. 

This is not the place for a full discussion. But the principle 
is simple:
In place of one single sin-table of length equal a power of 2
take a few cos/sin-tables of different prime-number-lengths 
and use them for parallel cos/sin-generation with individual 
phase accumulators. The analytical outputs then are all 
multiplied.
The smallest frequency step is the sampling frequency divided 
by all the table lengths.  The Chinese Remainder Theorem 
guarantees that all multiples of the frequency step can be 
realized.

The Advantages are:
(1)  There is no address quantization as in classic DDS.
(2)  The table lengths is not a power of two which leads 
     to spurs in classic DDS at frequencies  m*2^-n times 
     the sampling frequency (small integers m,n).
(3)  The implementation on DSPs is extraordinary simple
     and fast.

Example: Generation of the 17 tones of Jason at fs = 11025 Hz.
My choice of three cos/sin table lengths is:   29,  83,  599.
The frequency step then is  11025/29/83/599 = 0.007647 Hz.

Phase Accu Step in Table    resulting   frequency    SFDR
    1       2       3       frequency     error       dB

On my old DSP56002 it takes 8 instructions per sample and 
requires  2*(29+83+599) = 1422 words of memory for the tables. 
The spurious free dynamic range (SFDR) for this implementation 
in 24-bit-arithmetic is given in the table. It increases with 
6 dB per additional bit to infinity because there is no 
approximation.  The kernel of the program to compute n4 
samples by two complex multiplications of three complex 
table lookups each is:

      do n4,loop
      mpy   x1,y1,a  ab,l:(r4)+
      mpy   x1,y0,b  y:(r0)+n0,x0
      macr -x0,y0,a  y:(r2),y0
      macr  x0,y1,b  a,x1
      mpy   x1,y0,b  b,x0 
      mpy  -x0,y0,a  x:(r2)+n2,y1
      macr  x1,y1,a  x:(r0),x1
      macr  x0,y1,b  l:(r1)+n1,y
loop

That's in short.

Been away in on a vacation to EA and came back to a pile of over 300 e-mails
and only just getting to the top of the heap.
A lot has happened
First of all G3KEV on T/A using QRSS - never thought I would see the day.
This mode, pioneered by G4JNT and G3PLX, had a detractor on both sides of
the Atlantic yet used with success in T/A. You would have expected some
'word eating', but not a bit of it.

Then there is that well established Italian S/W producer who has come up
with yet another winner for the benefit of the LF community. I downloaded
Jason onto a laptop and the main computer and had them talking to each other
within half an hour - well done and thanks Alberto.

Some big antenna installations around

> Mal G3KEV has a competitor for the biggest 136 sig in the UK. I heard

I hadn't realised that in my absence the RA had rescinded the maximum of 1w
erp requirement. Must look through the rest of my e-mails.

Yes it was!
Just in case it goes down the file is also at:
          http://home.wanadoo.nl/nl9222/programs/jason092.exe
   Or:  http://home.wanadoo.nl/nl9222/digisoft.htm

When I was with Decca I had a Decca car, and we certainly had Decca trucks, 
but we never had Jeeps, so what's this all about?

I agree, Dave as I have said before has the best installation in the UK, with
several lattice towers all in excess of 150 ft hight.

Yes this is real alias OH1TN with a special call.

Credit to MM0ALM, everything he has is home built, TX and his antenna
system, consisting of several lattice towers, all over 150 ft high as
far as I know and he is not in the Electronic/radio business, even more
credit.
My system, TX and associated equipment and antennas have been engineered
and built by myself
no commercial DECCA JEEPS needed to cross the POND.
Thanks to all for the observations and reports.

Hrd MM0ALM in QSO with F6BWO yday night and he was really strong, maybe
even stronger than KEV, and only few signals from german stations are
stronger here (dj9ie, df0wd, dk8kw, dk9dx).
There is a mp3-recording of his signal in Sept 2001 on my homepage
(www.qsl.net/dj1yfk/136.html), but yesterday he was even stronger!

OH5UFO = OH1TN, as far as I know..

Paul,
  the text scrolls up outside the top of the screen, and, no, it
cannot be recovered.

The timing is a letter every 24 seconds (roughly), for a throughput
of  2.5 characters per minute

Yes, it can be done, as it can be done a faster version for HF and up...
Whether there actually will be such a version, it's a bit too early to say.

Rik ON7YD is much expert than me in QRSS speed calculations, but let's try :
suppose I want to send   CQ DE I2PHD
Unless my computation is wrong, that amounts to a total of 106 dot lengths,
so the time needed is the following :
QRSS3     106 x 3   = 318 seconds, i.e.   5 minutes, 18 seconds
QRSS10   106 x 10 = 1060 seconds, i.e. 17 minutes, 40 seconds
QRSS60   106 x 60 = 6360 seconds, i.e. 1 hour, 46 minutes
Jason         12 characters / 2.5  =  4 minutes, 48 seconds

I leave to Rik the computation for DFCW...

Mal G3KEV has a competitor for the biggest 136 sig in the UK. I heard 
MM0ALM wkg DJ9IE yesterday and he was 8 dB stronger than 'KEV here although 
almost twice as far away.  Said he'd just had a steeplejack in to mend his 
antenna - apparently money well spent.
Is OH5UFO for real? Seems much too strong for a genuine OH.

I have just uploaded version 0.92 of Jason to
http://www.weaksignals.com/jason

Qsl.net seems to be again up to speed, so
downloading  should be easy.

The mods are :

- Ctrl-Z clears the reception screen
- The blooming of the waterfall trace has been fixed.
- There should be now much less garbled and repeated
   characters when receiving just noise
- The new 17-tone signalling scheme is implemented
- When using audio output, it is possible to apply a multiplying
   factor to the steps between the tones
- A beacon mode is implemented
- Selectable USB/LSB both for Rx and Tx

Regarding this last point, a few notes are in order :

On the transmitting side, the Tx and Jason must be set both
either on USB or LSB. There is no need to announce in advance
which mode the transmission will be, as long as the above
rule is adhered to.

The same holds for the receiving side. Keep both the Rx and Jason
either on USB or LSB, irrespective on how the setting is on the
transmitting side.

A last word about the beacon mode.
The text to be beaconed must be surrounded by braces :  {   }
When the opening brace is encountered, then the text found until
the closing brace is endlessly repeated.  As an example, suppose
the following is typed :

HELLO ALL { THIS IS A TEST}

What will be transmitted is:

HELLO ALL THIS IS A TEST THIS IS A TEST THIS IS A TEST.....
and so on.

Any text following the closing brace will be ignored.

As usual, any and all reports are welcome

P.S. Version 0.92 is, of course, incompatible with 0.9 and 0.91

Hello Dave, hello Wolf,

congrats on the first Jason QSO! I can imagine that it is a very relaxing
mode, similar to QRSS. You can easily take a shower in between ...

<HTML><FONT FACE=arial,helvetica><FONT  SIZE=2>Hello Dave and all,
<BR>
<BR>At least it was my first "on air" test with Jason, both for "RX" and "TX". So I'm very pleased to have received an instant answer from Dave who must have been lurking on the frequency - thanks !
<BR>
<BR>Also thanks to Alberto who must have a very busy time. A question: How can I see when the last character of my transmitted text string is "complete" ? Is the transmission complete when it disappears from the screen, or does it take another couple of seconds to make the transmission complete.
<BR>
<BR>I did the "RX"/"TX" changeover manually with a "PTT"-switch. For the soundcard output option, one could use the serial port to control the transmitter (like the PSK31 software does). But this should have low priority on Alberto's wish list !
<BR>
<BR>Unfortunately, it was too cold on the clubstation to stay there much longer. And the local QRM was very strong; but JASON did not seem to suffer from the crashes and bangs and all the drifting carriers. Well done ! Dave's signal was audible, but a regular CW QSO would not have been "armchair copy" as in the good old days when we started with less QRM.
<BR>
<BR>Apologies to the station who called me a bit later on 136.6 in regular CW. On a normal day without the heavy QRM, I could have pulled you through.
<BR>
<BR>Thanks again Dave &nbsp;(next time I'll also have a hot cup of tea at the club stn)
<BR> &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;and Alberto (keep up the good work !)
<BR>

Congratulations Dave and Wolf! As Mal wrote, this is probably a "first".
Perhaps also a "last" as Alberto is working on the more bandwidth efficient
17-tone version :-)

>very lazy way of working!

Mal coined "Lazy man's CW". Now we have "Lazy man's RTTY" too, hihi...

Yes, of course. It was just a thought, not a proposal. I was just dreaming.
A clear case of the proverb "It's better to keep your mouth shut and let people
think that you are an idiot that to open it and prove that you are one" :-)
I am not so good at translating my thoughts to english language...

Sounds interesting. Is it some kind of huff & puff? Would a simple GPS with
+/-1us 1PPS jitter be adequate?

Ha ha! I knew someone would ask! By the way, we drive on the right side of the
road here. In some other countries they drive on the wrong side ;-)

Copied a solid QSO today between G3YXM and DF0WD

Time 1405 - 1420 utc- very slow but solid

QSO details

DF0WD DE G3YXM K
G3YXM DF0WD TNX DAVE UR "O" = 50W = YXM 0WD K
I left the qso at this stage, was unable to capture the actual
presentation so the above info is the best I could do.
Good Luck to both and this is probably a First

 Alberto and group,

What happens to JASON when he has a screen full of data?

Does it scroll off the page?..
Can it be recovered?

Also had great fun last night copying some Dex's 1 watt transmission at 600
miles.

I can copy DEX at QRSS60 most every night, but to see his call sign takes
many minutes!!
JASON looks like it will print out at about a letter ever 10 seconds or so.

Alberto,,  will there be a version of this program with longer segment
length to allow for longer integration of the signal ?

Also might you explain to us how much faster in character speed this mode is
than QRSS 60?

Seems to be at least 10 times as fast maybe more.

Thank you for a great time and a great program!!!

Paulc

OOPS - Can't read exponential notation on a calculator properly.

The 4.194304MHz GPS - frequency locked loop seems to be going now.  Once
locked, it 'blips' within 1Hz at fundamental and in the long term stays spot
on.  Dividing down, at 262144Hz the mean phase stays constant but blipping
every second over abot 15 degrees.  So if the fundamental is used to drive a
DDS at 137kHz looks like better than 10 deg short term stability and GPS
standard in the long term.  Ideal for 30s BPSK but not much much good for
higher frequency work, 1Hz sidebands ought to be noticable as well.   Chip
count has gone up to five now unfortunately, One for the oscillator , two for
the binary counter, an 8 bit latch and PIC.  But all cheap, the unit does lock
up within a few minutes of turn on and does not need a high stability VCXO.

Just to see how it worked, I also knocked up a conventional PLL using divide
by 2^22 and 74HC4046 PLL chip.  Did manage to get it to lock to GPS 1pps
pulses eventually, but only after forcing the two signals into sync manually
then precharging the filter capacitor to give nearly the correct frequency.
That way it could be persuaded to lock up in 20 minutes.   If started from
cold and asked to lock itself, I estimate would take something like 5 - 8
hours !

Thanks for the source code. It explains everything.

Andy,

I think it's time for you to replace the batteries in your calculator.

> That's neat! But I make it 0.0083333 Hz resolution, 

I make it 0.00083333 Hz = 10.0000 mHz / 12.

Both are submultiples of 1Hz...

:-)

Thanks for the source code. It explains everything.

It's late, CU tomorrow.

Good thought. My only real goal in this case was to have the divisor remain
an integer down to 10 mHz intervals, as I was using an 8-bit controller with
display and keypad. For the moment, calibration against a well-calibrated
ARGO screen has been sufficient, but I would obviously need to tune the DDS
to some "magic" frequency to use more accurate methods.

Just to repeat a comment that I made last summer... I am using an AD9850
clocked with a 3579.545 kHz crystal pulled to 3579.1394 kHz. This allows
integer resolution to 10 mHz. The results have been excellent, once I
corrected a minor computational oversight!

Just to repeat a comment that I made last summer... I am using an AD9850
clocked with a 3579.545 kHz crystal pulled to 3579.1394 kHz. This allows
integer resolution to 10 mHz. The results have been excellent, once I
corrected a minor computational oversight!

This is too prescriptive.  For instance, I am looking at a simple GPS
locking scheme that will allow any frequency that is a multiple of 1Hz to be
locked giving very good long term stability, but poor short term over a few
seconds - suitable for long duration signalling purposes.  Using a
4.194304MHz is perfect for DDS synths as 'nice' frequencies occur
automatically.  The step is 1/1024Hz so 1Hz steps and its subdivisions are
exact

A Tx with a guard circuit such as the Decca one can survive such abuse - the
only real problems is an ethical one of switching sidebands - but a spike of
a few 100s of microseconds, a function of the antenna bandwidth, every few
10s of seconds isn't going to annoy too many people.

BTW, What's MPH in Sweden - or any other country outside the US/UK for that
matter ;-)

Thanks Andy!


A few questions:

> Q Followed by eight hex digits for the frequency command word

MSByte or LSByte first?


> P Followed by two hex digits for phase word and [cr]

You mentioned 5 bits (why not 8?) of phase data,
are they right justified in this byte?


> K Followed by 10 hex digits & [cr]. Read back user data, usually clock
> frequency

??? 10 hex digits in the command!?

It would be nice if we could agree on a standard format for the clock
frequency readback. BTW, I didn't see any "write user data" command,
is this data hard-coded?


> R Readback current data values in operation - not necessarily those in
> EEPROM

How is this data formatted?


Let's see if I got this right... All commands with hex argument, except
"Y<addr>", should be terminated by [cr] and there should be no [cr] after
single character commands. Ok?

OK. It looks like we already have a standard. Andy, can you describe your protocol?

If we all clock our DDS chips with 5 or 10MHz from frequency standards, we
will have common "channels" although the numbers will not be nice (a lot of
ugly decimals). The 10MHz guys (including me) will only have access to
half the number of "channels" because of the doubled step size... However,
901943 "channels" on the 136kHz band is enough for me :-)

Yes, I am thinking about a way to implement this in the new software for the
G0MRF DDS board. It is probably a good idea to make soft phase
transitions considering the huge reactive power that is circulating in the
antenna circuits at the QRO stations. Swiching phase 180 degrees
instantaneously in such a setup would be like throwing in the reverse gear
when driving forward at 100 MPH...

I've just acquired a Siemens D2008-K  Level Meter, 200Hz - 18MHz,
but I'm short of a manual for it.

Does anybody on the list have a manual that they could copy for
me or know where I could get hold of one from?

My DDS control protocol allows the 32 bit frequency word or 5 bit phase to
be sent as printable Ascii hex characters using a simple serial protocol
with simple handshaking, useable from any terminal or driver software, at
19200 baud.  Driver software reads back user data from the DDS controller to
let this know the clock frequency.  That way, the software can be
independant of any particular DDS unit it has to control. (Very useful when
you have five DDS modules in the shack operating from clocks ranging from 5
MHz up to 94.45 MHz and soon 4.194304MHz as well)  There is also a module
address facility built in (thanks to Larry for that idea) to allow multidrop
use where one serial line can control several DDS units, a-la Icom C-IV
interface.  Last option is a command that updates the frequency or phase in
the DDS only after an external trigger pulse.  This makes GPS timed PSK or
FSK straightforwrd, after the new value is sent to the DDS controller, the
new value will appear exactly 3.2us after the UTC timing pulse.

Summary of the DDS module commands :

------------------------------------
The first character sent is a Board Address which precedes all commands.
This is a single Hex character sent as ASCII  0 - F and potentially allows
up to 16 modules to be driven from the same COM port.  If correctly
addressed, the module responds with a Z [cr][lf] and this response sould be
waited for

The next character is a command which may have hex data following it.

Q	Followed by eight hex digits for the frequency command word
terminated by a  carriage return
P	Followed by two hex digits for phase word and [cr]
U	Writes the data sent above to the AD9850 DDS chip
T	Writes the data  to the AD9850 after the next 0/1 transition on the
external trigger input
W	As for U, but also stores the data in the PIC's non-volatile EEPROM
memory for switch on next time.
Y	Followed by one Hex digit, changes the board address and stores in
EEPROM.  No [cr] needed
K	Followed by 10 hex digits & [cr]. Read back user data, usually clock
frequency
R	Readback current data values in operation - not necessarily those in
EEPROM

So, to update the frequency (to one mentioned a lot on this reflector :-|
the following characters are sent assuming the board address is 7  The dot
.  means wait for a response :

7.Q06F58E8C[cr]
7.U

I would like to watch for your beacon but have no antenna due to a flood
last week taking my loading coil away. Perhaps early next week I will be in
action again. I think a couple of hours later than you were planning would
be better as sunset here is not till 2025 utc.
I am sure Bob ZL2CA would be keen to listen for you.

Please, for serial protocol just use what Andy has already done or do the 
exact same functions, Integer steps at the limits of the DDS chip.

With Andy's I can set the DDS to any INTEGER count, steps of 1.1 MilliHz 
and I can also go around and set the Clock frequency so that the DDS output 
can stay the same while the Reference frequency moves (read drifts hi) 
around etc.

This is all best done at high level as I see it.  The latest QST has 
another DDS design with 1 Hz steps that are not quite 1 Hz really, rather 
sad to see the impact of thinking that can only cope with 1 Hz increments hi.

The worst result for me would be doing something like 10 milliHz steps, 
which again would be not quite 10 milliHz for those with different 
Reference oscillator frequencies.  The use of a second DDS to make a nice 
round integer clock for a DDS would be the best solution but is overly 
costly at the moment.

The 16F628 is ideal for the new way to replace the 16F84.  The serial UART 
is nice to work with.  These devices are also now cheaper than the 16F84's, 
well at least they are at the moment by a small amount.  For my needs here, 
I would give up the rotary control and the LCD, just use a serial port to 
do it all.

I hope this finds you having fun....I am still stiff as a board so no 
climbing around here yet hi.

Larry
VA3LK

PS, one final point, I would implement a trigger input on the PIC as well 
so that one can easily make the whole DDS setup coherent to a 1 Second 
resource as well.  I have that here now on the BPSK and it could be used to 
squeeze a bit out of the system.....

Hello

I know there are some DDS users/programmers out there!

We have probably not seen the final variant of "sequential single tone
modulation" yet. So, in order to avoid unnecessary (and painful) PIC
software changes in the future, I'd suggest that we establish a standard.

It would be very nice if we could agree on a simple serial protocol
that would allow any PC program, be it DOS or Windoze, to take total
control over the DDS (I know that Andy G4JNT has done something
in this direction).

I am in the process of rewriting the PIC software for G0MRF's DDS
board, a serial input port is on the "todo" list.

If the DDS clock frequency, and possibly also a division ratio and offset
frequency, is known to the PC software (via a setup menu or whatever),
the math can be done in the PC, only the DDS phase increment has to be
sent to the DDS box.


Proposed serial protocol:

   9600 baud, 8N1.

   Only printable ASCII characters are used.

   '=' is used as "start-of-message" character.

   The '=' is followed by eight hexadecimal digits representing the 32-bit
      phase increment, MSB first! Example: "=0245FD4C3"

   The DDS box changes the output frequency if it receives 8 consecutive
      valid hex digits after the leading '='. In case of error, it will do nothing
      but continue putting out the old frequency and wait for a new
      '=' start character.

   A simple checksum byte (two hex characters) could be added at the
   end to prevent the TX from exploding if the frequency data should get
   corrupted from RF interference... Either "vertical parity" (just XOR the
   bytes) or a modulo 256 sum. CRC seems to be overkill...

(Alberto has indicated that he might add direct DDS TX control to Jason
if all DDS owners/programmers can agree on a serial protocol)


Please comment!

Dear Alberto,

I tried it on this PC at work (Windows 2000), and my laptop (Win 98), with 
identical results. I can't remember what the win98 version of task manager 
is called, but there is something which performs a similar function. But I 
tried it again just now (at work), and it worked perfectly! Hmmm - I'll try 
it again when I get home, but it looks like it must just have been "finger 
trouble" on my part - sorry for getting you going!

Cheers, Jim Moritz

Hi Jim,
   I have been unable to reproduce this behaviour... even if changing center
frequency while transmitting, everytime it worked ok. Of course the new
frequency is used at the next tone time, but no problems as far as the dialog
box is concerned.  You talk about Task Manager, so you must be using
either Win NT or Win 2000.  I tested Jason both with Win98 and Win 2000,
not with NT.  Could be this the culprit ?
Anybody else observed such phenomenon ?

Mal,
   there has been a misunderstanding, I am afraid.
I cannot transmit on the 136 kHz as I don't have a Tx, yet.
I was just referring to me listening for Dave's transmission.

Glad that you received Dave, maybe you can try now for Geri, already
set up, or, heaven forbids, for Dexter W4DEX, whose 1 W Jason beacon
has been copied twice in Maryland, 500+ km away.

Dear Jim,
   the sampling frequency used in Jason, both for input and output, is 11025 Hz.
I limited the choice of the center frequency in the Options menu from 50 to 5000 Hz.

Don't say this too loud.... my wife could be hearing....  ;-(

If I understand you well, this would mean that also when transmitting, the
'wraparound' on the 17 slots could go in one sense or the other, depending
on the option chosen. This would eliminate some confusion from the
receiving site, as you could always transmit either LSB or USB even without
this option, only the receivers should be set the opposite way, i.e. Jason set
to LSB when the Rx is set to USB and viceversa.
In the sake of 'user-friendliness' your proposal is hereby accepted, Sir  :-)

Dear Alberto,

A query -What range of sound card audio frequencies can be used by Jason?

Also, another "wouldn't it be nice if...." request to waste more of your 
valuable weekend - perhaps Jason could have the option to transmit LSB as 
well as USB - this would mean that, if using an SSB exciter with mediocre 
carrier and unwanted sideband suppression, the unwanted mixing products 
could be positioned at harmless frequencies, eg underneath DCF39! It would 
also cater for funny oscillator frequencies.

Cheers, Jim Moritz

Dear Alberto, LF group,

I tried version 0.91 of Jason on my 300MHz PC and also on a P133 - I was 
able to receive 'YXM on both, although only the "slow" mode worked on the 
133MHz machine as you would expect. I could not see any great difference in 
decoding between them, but with Dave's strong signal the comparison was 
probably not a good one. I also noticed the repeating characters phenomenon 
- it happens when receiving noise, but also repeated "extra" characters pop 
up in the decoded text when there is a marginal signal ( I got "the quick 
bbrown foox" at one point), which was suprising.

I found that trying to change the centre frequency caused the program to 
lock up - you could enter a new frequency OK, but it then seemed to be 
impossible to close the dialogue box - the only way to get out of it was to 
shut down the whole program using ctrl-alt-del and the task manager.

Looking forward to further developments!

Cheers, Jim Moritz

Hi Rik,
   the audio tones in Jason are generated using a software implementations
of a NCO (Numerical Controlled Oscillator), where a long sine table is
periodically sampled according to a phase accumulator whose increment
is a function of the wanted output frequency (among other things).

So, as long as the requirement is not to have a frequency resolution finer
than 0.084 Hz, which is a limit dictated by other constraints in Jason,
it is a matter of just changing a couple of values in the program to do
what you want.

What will take the greatest part of the time needed to do this, is the user
interfacing. There must be a new Options Menu choice, where you will be
able to specify, let' say, a multiplying factor which will correspond to the
division you will perform on the generated RF signal. And then a check must
be performed to see whether the resulting range is compatible with the
center ftrequency specified for Rx... negative frequencies exist only
in the analytical domain, not in the real world !
But it is a work of not more than one evening, maybe less.
So I think I will do it after the mod to the encoding method, to use the
17-slot format.

Hello Alberto
Will look for your Jason transmission. Have seen G3YXM with a big signal
on 137.52 khz.
Will try and decode both signals when I hear them again. Expect you are
using a similar freq.
With some modifications to Jason it looks promising, and would like to
compare it to QRS under poor propogation conditions.
I suppose one advantage is the direct print out of data but am surprised
no one developed a software package to print out the machine generated
QRS. Morse readers have been about for some time for normal cw,
especially auto generated cw.

Hi Dave and Geri,

copied your first qso with jason. 
Guess Johan Bodin is right, when he explained, that jason repeats the last character when the transmission stops. Hope the document will pass the refector.

Hello Alberto,

I just downloaded the 'slow PC' version of Jason and will try it over the
next weekend.
Meanwhile I am still thinking about an easy (= fast & cheap) way to
transmit Jason. Simplest way is to use my existing HF tranceiver and put
the soundcard output to the mike. Since my tranceiver (and probably most
other) won't transmit at 136kHz I either have to :
- transvert a HF signal down to 136kHz
- devide the HF signal down to 136kHz (only for non-linear modes, including
Jason)
I prefer the second option for several reasons :
- dividing by 100 will increase signal stability by 100 (and reduce any PLL
jitter by 100)
- diving by 100 will allow me to tune in 0.1Hz steps (transvering would
allow only 10Hz steps)
But ... this would require a 'Jason signal' using 25.2Hz steps instead of
0.252Hz steps (producing an audio signal of 800Hz +/- 400Hz instead of
800Hz +/- 4Hz). 
I don't know how hard this it to implement ? 
I know that you are spending a lot of time on Argo, Jason etc.. so it this
takes to much time just ignore this request.

73, Rik  ON7YD

PS : 
Divide by 100 would require a 13.57 - 13.78 MHz signal, advantage = easy
frequency reading, disadvantage = out of a ham band.
Alternative would be to divide by 104, that would require a signal of
14.1128 - 14.3312 MHz (within the 20 meter band) but disadvantage =
difficult frequency reading.

Dear Johan,
   yes, that's what I have observed too. I would like to beleive in your last
sentence, thinking that in the chaos there are some 'strange attractors'  :-)
but more realistically I think to have found in the decoding logic what could
explain that. During this coming weekend I will change the signalling format
to use the 17-slot method, and will do also some tests for the above.
Thanks for the report.

Oops, typing too fast : read sideband instead of bandwidth

Hello Alberto,

As bandwidth is important for :
1. reducing QRM to other to a minimum
2. finding a clear spot that covers the required bandwidth
I would vote pro.
I don't think that bandwidth indepency is of much importance, we just have
to agree on what bandwith is used. Or eventually Jason could have USB/LSB
switch.
Thanks for the good work,

Rik  ON7YD

Yesterday evening, testing Jason 091, I've received a test message, although 
with some errors, that I think was sent by G3YXM. I've mailed a screenshot but 
the message is not passed on reflector. Now I've reduced the file and hope it is 
OK. Note that I've received the test using only my loop antenna, so the signal 
was quite weak. My compliments to Alberto for the software and hope I will be 
very soon active with this mode. 73&nbsp; Cesare</FONT></DIV>

Dear Alberto,

> Also the problems of occasional double letters, and systematic
> errors are under scrutiny.

I have noticed that when the transmission stops and Jason is exposed
to noise, he (it?) usually repeats the last transmitted character.
Judging from the waterfall, Dave transmitted only a single K at the end of
his transmission but I got five K's on the screen! Statistically, that shouldn't
have happened unless Jason has some kind of unintentional "memory"...?

Even when receiving noise only, there are often  sequences of 2 to 5 equal
characters.

Maybe LF noise isn't random chaos after all... :-)

Dave and the group,
  first of all, thanks for your time.

Sorry to say that this evening I haven't been able
to receive anything from Dave. I even started Spectran,
but no traces were visible. This evening the propagation
is much worse than yesterday. So I can consider
lucky the choice of yesterday evening for the first test...

Moreover, at about 20:30 UTC a strong, stable,
unmodulated carrier showed up at an audio
frequency of 798.48 Hz, so the reception would
have been anyway ruined, even if the signals of
Dave were present here.

Any other reception report ?

I read Dave's message at 2000 UTC, downloaded Jason 0.91 from his
mirror site (qsl.net was dead...), checked my GPS frequency standard -
it was tracking 8 "vehicles" - phase error was negligible, connected the
standard to my CR-304 receiver, tuned to 135.3kHz, selected USB,
started Jason and typed 2220Hz as RX center frequency and selected
"slow speed" (350MHz steam PC). Then I clicked the RX button...

The attached picture tells it all...

This is too good to be true... I must be dreaming...

Thanks Alberto and thanks Dave!

Excellent Jason copy tonight, Dave and Alberto, on my 233 machine in normal 
mode.
Also had a 100 set up using Spectran in 0.042 Hz mode running on same audio.
Sigs looked much the same.

Rx antenna was just 1 foot of wire without preamp to try to get some noise
into your basically very strong sig.  Rx was 756PRO in CW using 100 Hz BW.
No audible sig.

Next time, I'll set up the 100 in Jason slow mode and run it in parallel
with the 233 in normal mode to see if any difference.

Walter G3JKV.

.. almost took place onight ...

Hello LF group, especially hello Alberto,

I called cq in Jason tonight and got a clear answer by Dave, G3YXM. After i
gave him "o" (what is the report system for Jason ;-), I completely lost
his signal. I have a nasty carrier right in the middle of the reception
window that might be the reason ...

Dave, I will give it another try later and first try to receive your 20.00
UTC transmission tonight.

Best 73, we will keep trying! Alberto: thanks for the software in general
and especially for the adjustable tones. It works fine with my EX-1001 SSB
Exciter from Hagenuk.

Geri, DK8KW (W1KW)

<HTML><FONT FACE=arial,helvetica><FONT  SIZE=2>Hi Alberto and group,
<BR>
<BR>Many thanks for the adjustable center frequency, especially for TX !
<BR>
<BR>I think it's important to use a quite high audio frequency, so that all harmonics of the AF signal are outside the transmitters passband. 
<BR>Also great to have a slow version now. I tried V0.9 on a 266MHz P2 and could not decode the signal, so will try to download V0.91 from Dave's site. Indeed, QSL.NET seems to have a hard time, it took 5 attempts to get Jason V0.9 (too busy distributing Jason ? :-)
<BR>
<BR>I will try to be QRV at the weekend. Time for a 2-way QSO ?
<BR>
<BR>Greetings, and hope to hear / see / read &nbsp;&nbsp;you later

Additional note:

Jason 0.91 works fine on my P100 laptop, it's a really crappy Compaq so any
decent machine should be OK.
It doesn't seem an awful lot slower either.
Well. done Alberto.

Dave,
   thanks, also for mirroring the software. Qsl.net seems to be rather slow
these days.

When you transmit, the Normal and Slow settings are perfectly equivalent.
The speed setting affects only the Rx side, as it reduces the number of FFTs
done each second. It would be interesting to receive at the same time the same
transmission, with two PCs, one set to Normal, and the other set to Slow,
to see if the decoding accuracy worsens with the Slow setting...

Alberto and all.

Yes I will transmit for one hour from 2000 utc on 137.520 using Jason 0.91
in "Slow" mode.
I have put the software on my web-site in case QSL.net is too busy.

Hello Dave,

  thanks for your offer. I am sure that, if this evening you will
transmit on the same frequency and time of yesterday evening,
I won't be the only one trying to receive you, testing also the
low speed version just uploaded.  TNX.

Just downloaded JASON, but my
machine does not seem to be able to handle it...
It is Pentium II running at 366 mHz
Celeron CPU with 128 megs of RAM
Any ideas ?
After going trough the conceptual approach or Señor Alberto 's JASON
program, I want to congratulate him for such a wonderfully well thought
approach to weak signal work !!!
As a VHF enthusiast I foresee very interesting applications for JASON in
that area too ...

Dear Jim and the group,

  exactly, with 17 tones, taking into account the sign as indicator
of 'wraparound', it is possible to encode the 16 deltas, with the
modulo operator. This is the alternate scheme.
It seems that the consensus is on reducing the bandwidth.
So please Johan, wait a little before modifying the PIC code that
drives the DDS...

Thanks for your input

Hello Group

   I have just uploaded the version 0.91 of Jason.
The mods are :

- The Options menu now allows to set the speed
   to Normal or Slow (for PCs in the 200 MHz class)

- The center frequencies both for reception and transmission
  (when using the audio output) are now user-selectable.

The problem of excessive blooming of the waterfall trace
is being investigated. Anyway it shouldn't affect the decoding,
as the AGC applied to the visual trace is not used elsewhere.

Also the problems of occasional double letters, and systematic
errors are under scrutiny.

Please test it in the Slow setting with a slow PC.
Before someone asks, the settings are not remembered.
It is one of the touches that will be added to the final version.

Dear Alberto, LF Group

At 14:30 16/01/2002 +0100, you wrote:
>So, what would all you judge more important, sideband independence,
>or bandwidth used ? Your vote will decide the final format for Jason.
Provided the software is able to cope with receiving the signal as either 
USB or LSB (for example. by having a user option to change the sign of the 
measured frequency differential), I don't think having to select the 
sideband would be any problem - I think reduced BW would be useful; it 
would make it easier to avoid QRM like Loran and make the signal slightly 
easier to generate.

Also, from your previous e-mail:

>This [eliminating the bit which defines the nibble as 1st or 2nd in the 
>character] would gain one bit each nibble, increasing the alphabet from 64

I was thinking more that this would mean 2 x 3 bits for each character 
instead of 2 x 4, reducing the number of tones required by 1/2, and so 
further halving the bandwidth. Or the "spare" bit could be used to include 
some sort of error correction, perhaps.

And, regarding the 16 tone encoding scheme:
>Hmmm, suppose I have just sent tone 13. Next, I have to send a delta
>of 16 (the deltas range from 1 to 16). 13 + 16 mod 16 = 13, so I would

>what you said ?

That would be no problem for 16 codes - you only need to re-define possible 
values of delta as 0 to 15 instead of 1 to 16. If it is important that two 
successive tones never have the same frequency, ie. there can be no delta = 
0, you would need 17 tones - then in the example it would be 13+16 mod 17 = 
12; perhaps this is something like what Stuart is suggesting?

... if the system would be depending on the sideband, could it be
internally switched from "normal" to "reverse" (I mean at a later version,
not the test version of course)? In this case I believe it would make sense
to save bandwidth and go for this algorithm.

I vote for the narrow 17 slot format!

To help those who can't switch sideband on their receivers, I would suggest
the addition of an USB/LSB button to Jason. I guess it shouldn't be too difficult to
toggle a minus sign, or something like that, somewhere in the Jason code.

Hi Jim and the group,

  yes, correct, that's how the information is encoded in Jason.
There is another possible format, which has pros and cons.
It has been also suggested by Stewart Nelson. I had initially,
when designing Jason, dismissed it, but now I am here asking
your collective opinion.

Presently only the absolute value of the frequency delta is used
to encode the information. If  I use also the sign, I have this results :

-Pros  The band occupied is nearly halved, from 32 slots, it goes
           down to 17 slots.

-Cons The system is no more sideband independent. Now it is
           immaterial whether the RX is set to LSB or USB.
           This would not be any more the case with the alternate scheme.

So, what would all you judge more important, sideband independence,
or bandwidth used ? Your vote will decide the final format for Jason.

Dear LF Group,

Was able to copy G3YXM's test signal last night - somewhat surprisingly 
using a 300MHz IBM laptop. Copy was perfect, with random letters appearing 
only when Dave was not transmitting - see attachment. Dave's signal was S9+ 
even at the reduced power level, and I found I had to reduce both the RX 
gain and the sound card input level control until the signal did not move 
the sig level bar graph to get good copy - even so, the waterfall display 
showed a very wide, overloaded looking trace - but it worked fine just the 
same, so a good start.

Reading Alberto's e-mail and looking at the spectrogram of the Jason signal 
last night, I had not correctly understood the Jason encoding scheme when I 
wrote before. Now I think I have it right - Each character is encoded as 
two 4-bit nibbles, each of which is transmitted as one of 16 difference 
frequencies between 2 successive tones. If the current tone is below the 
centre frequency of the signal, the frequency differential is added to the 
current tone frequency to get the next tone frequency. If the current tone 
is above the centre frequency, the frequency differential is subtracted 
from the current tone frequency. So the tone frequency will oscillate in an 
irregular way around the centre frequency with the magnitude of each 
frequency shift representing one 4-bit nibble. If the centre frequency is 
F, and the spacing between tones is f, the possible tone frequencies are F 
+/- (n-0.5)*f where n is an integer from 1...16. Therefore there are 32 
possible equally-spaced tone frequencies from F-15.5f to F+15.5f. Is this 
correct?

Cheers, Jim Moritz

Alberto

I have been enjoying trying Jason here between two PC's. A slow PC sounds
the tones over its speakers. A 500 MHz machine two rooms away picks up the
tones via microphone. Results have been quite good although QRSS would have
been O copy. A couple of observations: The errors tend to be consistent.
When an E is not decoded correctly a G is printed instead. Similarly a
missed A always becomes a Q. Is there AGC on the signal? It seems to take a
long time time to recover from strong signals.
Many thanks for another excellent easy to use programme Alberto. I am
looking forward to trying it on the air.

This is wonderful......  Where else but on LF could you find to guys who 
make contributions trying to pass the Thanks to the other guy!  I am 
grateful to both of you - bet a lot of other people are as well....

Lots of QRN here in North Carolina the past few nights.  Looks a lot
better tonight.  I am watching 135.921 to 135.924 now.  Sun is just now
setting here at 2230 UTC.  I'll start posting screen shots at:

http://www.gostanly.com/w4dex/135kHz.jpg

Will continue until about 0500 UTC.

What!? As far as I remember you did most of the hardware design and, what's
more important, you made kits and PCBs available to the LF community.
I only read the AD9832 data sheet and wrote a few lines of pic code!

Well, when I thought the transmission was over, and
<br>I was about to switch off the Rx, I checked again,
<br>and, sure, Dave was still transmitting !
<p>Strong QSB which at times wiped off your signal,
<br>but I was able to copy this :
<p><img SRC="cid:part1.3C44A02E.80CA9991@usa.net" height=44 width=579>
<p>When in the message there were errors, in the waterfall
<br>your signal was totally absent.
<p>Well, I am satisfied of this first true test on the air !
<br>Now, before going to bed, I will prepare the version
<br>with the option to slow it down. Tomorrow I will put it
<br>on the Web site.
<p>Good night to all, and thanks especially to Dave for
<br>his time and cooperation !

Hi John and the USA monitors. What time do you start to monitor. Have
heard a few transmitting early around 2130 - 2400 utc. I do not usually
stay up beyond these times, so not sure if anybody is
still going later than this at the present time. F6BWO is active at
these times, and a couple of others that I did not wait to identify.
What time do you all normally start to listen.

Yes, a Windoze vector scope would be a great tool/toy!

The soundcard clocks can be quite unstable. Therefore I would suggest a
second mode where both left and right inputs are used. The received signal
is fed into one of the channels and a reference frequency is fed into the other.
If the reference is a clean sine wave, a Hilbert transformer can be used to
split it into the quadrature L.O. needed for the half-complex input mixer
(real in - I/Q out).

Another approach could be to keep the NCO and use a software PLL to lock
the NCO "software clock" to the reference frequency. The reference doesn't
have to be a pure sine wave in this case, I think.

> One can play endlessly with such a tool !

I couldn't agree more!

Hello

I am planning to add Jason TX capability to the G0MRF DDS VFO.

The new program will not fit in the PIC16F84. There is a slight chance
that it can be squeezed in if the DFCW option is removed. I will probably
write the new program for a PIC16F628 anyway. This chip is pin compatible
and has twice as much program memory.

The smallest DFCW shift in the current version is 0.25Hz which seems
quite wide by todays standards. Is there anybody that actually uses the
DFCW function in this VFO?

I would like to use pin 3 (RA4) and perhaps also pin 4 (RA5) on the PIC
for Jason. Pin 3 is currently connected to the unused FSEL pin on the DDS
chip and has a pull-up resistor to +5V. Pin 4 is currently connected directly
to +5V.

* It would be interesting to know if it is easy to disconnect these pins
by cutting the tracks? (I don't have any G0MRF board to look at myself).

Life will be easier for me if you can live without DFCW. The already existing
DFCW switch can be used for Jason on/off and the DFCW keying input can
be used as serial input.

Any comments?

Hi Alberto,

Thank you and many congratulations again.  I have also transmitted audio
across the shack from computer to computer with 136 background noise
from the loudspeaker of a receiver.  May I add to Bernt's appeal for a
more flexible offset frequency when you are able.  I have offsets of
1400Hz and 1850Hz to add to the list!

73, Brian

So thank you for this wonderful software. May I wish to get a variable
center of the tone-window by the next version? my RX outputs 1kHz, another
2000Hz!Maybe you can install an offsetmode.

That's what we have all been trying to get across to you for years you silly
old duffer :-)    Blimey, you must have had your head stuck so far in your
own AR88 that you didn't hear.    Anyway, despite your past habit of
harassing others who are working in your best interests, I am sure that if
you blow us all a BIG KEV kiss, then all will be forgiven.     Just try and
not let yourself fall so far behind again.   Try to keep an open mind and
keep up the medication (I recently stopped taking my asthma medication and
nearly ended up in hospital so I know how important it is).

Happy New Year !!!! (2001)

Hello Alberto, hello Dave, hello group,

just at the moment I write this message I can perfectly copy Dave's signal.
Starting at 20.00 UTC I had adjusted my receiving equipment, could hear
Dave and had to turn everything down so that the signal was not detectable
by ear at all! Just saw the tone-signals in the waterfall window.

First I thought it would not work but then I was able to clearly read the
message:


-T!!!SSAGE FROM G3YXMGOOD EVENING FROM G3YXM TEST OF JASON DE G3YXM

on the screen (see attachment, taken in between).

Alberto: that thing works great!

I am using a Pentium III with 500 MHz. Looking forward to be able to
transmit myself! 


Best 73 and mni txn!

Geri, DK8KW (W1KW), in JO52BH, 826 km away from Dave ...

<br>Hi Dave and the group,
<p>&nbsp; very good reception of your transmission in Italy :
<p><img SRC="cid:part1.3C449112.D767F38D@usa.net" height=68 width=463>
<br>&nbsp;
<br>Your signal was rather weak here, and I had some QRN, which increased
suddenly
<br>at 20:20 UTC
<br>After some minutes the screen was this :
<p><img SRC="cid:part2.3C449112.D767F38D@usa.net" height=42 width=496>
<p>Thanks for your time and patience Dave !

put two PCs in different rooms and tried jason with great success. During the transmit I mixed some noise 
from the LF-Receiver, which was set to 136 kHz. There were a lot of strange tones. Nothing of this was seen on the waterfall as a distortion. So thank you for this wonderful software. May I wish to get a variable center of the tone-window by the next version? my RX outputs 1kHz, another 2000Hz!Maybe you can install an offsetmode.
BTW the lowspeed-PC(166MHz) was able to send, but not to decode.

Hi Jim and the group,
  probably 300 MHz will not be enough... at least until the slowed down
version is ready.

If you use a fixed "carrier" tone, you have to alternate it with the tones sent.
Don't forget that at any one time, a single tone is transmitted.
So, you transmit the carrier, then a tone. Their difference conveys information,
but when you retransmit again the carrier, this time no information is sent...

This would gain one bit each nibble, increasing the alphabet from 64 to 256
symbols. For keyboard-to-keyboard communication, I think 64 symbols
are enough.

Hmmm, suppose I have just sent tone 13. Next, I have to send a delta
of 16 (the deltas range from 1 to 16). 13 + 16 mod 16 = 13, so I would
end up sending the same tone, with a delta of 0.  Or maybe I misunderstood
what you said ?

No, sending would be at the same speed. Each tone sent is acting as a
reference for the next one, already in the present scheme.

I hope so. This evening will be listening at 137.520 nominal starting
from 20:00 UTC.

Dave, I think that your transmission will be such that 137.520 kHz
corrsponds to a note of 800 Hz, i.e. your transmitted range
will be 137516.089  <->  137523.911  Hz.
Can you confirm ?  TNX:

Hi Alan,
    no, the coding scheme relies only on the absolute value of the frequency
difference, so it's immaterial whether you are receiving LSB or USB...

Could your failure to decode attributed to the same initial problem of
Dave, i.e. CPU speed of the PC ? Until I produce a version a bit less
CPU-hungry, I reckon you need at least a 500 MHz CPU when receiving.
Dave did succeed when he switched from a 200 MHz PC to a 850 MHz one.

But probably tomorrow I will have ready a slowed-down version...

Alan / Alberto.

Sounds like the same problem I had, what speed is your processor?
I have now had good decode of a locally generated weak signal that would
have been "M" copy on 3sec QRSS and was decoding the signal I sent OK. (you
will need USB Alan as you suspect).
It is difficult to decode strong signals, you will have to reduce the gain
to almost zero or add noise until the signal is buried.
Alberto. Another thought for when you have a spare moment (!!) could some
mode be introduced that would stop the signal bleeding across when very
loud? On Argo, the "Lo" gain setting works well for monitoring your own
transmission.
The PSU stood the test (with the addition of some fans) so I can transmit
any time for tests.

Dear Alberto, Steve, Dave, LF group,

Thanks for producing this new mode - should be interesting to see what 
happens. A few thoughts cross my mind:

The fastest computer I have is 300MHz, so whether this is adequate remains 
to be seen. So I would certainly be interested in some tests from G3YXM 
this evening.

As for generating the signal, the interfacing options in "Jason" give 
plenty of possibilities - Since I don't currently have a suitable SSB 
exciter or DDS, I am thinking of using a VCXO, or even a VCO in a similar 
scheme to that I am using for 7FSK; the frequency stability requirement is 
relaxed, but since there are many more tones, greater tuning range and 
linearity is required - something like 1% linearity would seem necessary. 
So a bit of experimentation will be needed.

Perhaps silly questions, but why 2 different tone frequencies for each 
symbol? Would it not be possible to have 16 different tones with 1 fixed 
"carrier" tone, to generate the same 16 difference frequencies and roughly 
halve the BW? Also, is it necessary to have different symbols for the first 
and second 3 bits of each carrier? I realize this removes the ambiguity, 
but since a particular tone is either the beginning or the end, there are 
only 2 possible decodes, one of which will be garbage - both decodes could 
be displayed side by side, and it could be left to the operator to decide 
which was correct.

Another thought is a differential encoding scheme - suppose you have 16 
tones and 16 symbols, then the next tone would be the modulo 16 sum of the 
current tone frequency and the next symbol. For example, if tone 9 is 
currently being transmitted, and the next symbol is 5, the next tone will 
be 14. If the next symbol after that is 8, the next tone will be 6 (+16), 
and so on. The receiving software would still be looking for the difference 
frequency between successive tones - however, sending would be twice as 
fast because only 1 tone would be sent for each symbol, with the previous 
tone acting as the reference. I think I'm missing something, but I can't 
think what at the moment...

Cheers, Jim Moritz

Hi Dave,
ur signs somewhat stronger than the LORAN-C lines.

my rcv is calibr exactly on 137.520kHz, i.e. 137.520kHz = 800 Hz, 
the centre of the Jason spec.

received the signs: SRH?? (AAGGGGKKKKKKKK

if that is not what u transmitted, I have to meassure ur QRG the next turn.
pse transmit the centre carrier for a while beforehand.

Alberto, I guess u can rcv Davids signs without problems.they are vy 
strong in jo43sv.

regards
Uwe/dj8wx

Hi Alberto, It occurs to me that to decode correctly we will need to be
listening on upper-sideband otherwise we will get a frequency translation of
the tones and thus an incorrect decode.
I am 'enabled' on receive, and just missed a transmission from Dave this
morning due to being on the wrong sideband. By the time I had changed the
rx, he had gone.
A wish for the next version......a "Clear & Home" button for the RX window.


(addition before posting)

Dave G3YXM signal received at 1520 (ish) very strong. It was very difficult
to reduce the level such that a narrow line was seen in the waterfall. When
that was achieved the signal was total inaudible even with the speakers
turned full up. Despite seeing all the signal in the centre slot until 1530z
not a single sensible char was decoded. Very odd. The "thermometer" on the
left was totally off screen for a signal giving a clean line in the
waterfall, and only showed when the audio was producing a 'flared' 5mm wide
trace.

And the same in Massachusetts. It's been very quiet for the last week,

Uwe and Alan.

I don't know how often you get mail but I will transmit at 1500 for
30minutes (if my cheapo PSU will stand it!) and then listen.
I will get as close to 137.520 as I can, my old IC735 TX tunes in 10Hz steps
and is a little off frequency, so will be within 5Hz of 520.

If this proves successful I will transmit in the evening at 2000 for
30minutes or longer if required, same frequency.

73.
Dave G3YXM.

Rik,
   thanks. I suspected that, but could not be sure...
But Jason has been vaccinated, so no fear of such diseases :-)

Andy,
   it looks like you are implicitly addressing Wolf and me, amongst others  :-)
Personally, I can say that your proposal is quite interesting. Just I don't have
the time in this moment. The program you propose, while conceptually simple,
will need some time to be implemented properly, especially if the graphical
aspect has to be elegant (i.e. a radar-like round window, with a vector starting
from the center, whose modulus indicates the log-magnitude, and the angle
indicating the istantaneous phase, maybe leaving traces of the past positions).

But, if nobody else volunteers, I can put it on my
to-do log for the second half of this year (or maybe earlier, but I cannot
commit just now).

Just checked a dictionary, the correct English word is 'smallpox' (vaiolo
in Italian), Just as 'measles' (morbillo) it a kids-disease.

I have a 225MHz pentium in the shack, so I will await the 'poor-men'
version of Jason.

Hello Dave,
   thanks. Glad that it worked ! I was fearing that my successful tests were only
a dream, caused by too much Chianti wine :-)
If you agree, I will produce a slowed down version to test on your 200 MHz PC,
also to check how the decoding worsens with respect to the faster version.
I suspect that many OMs still have PCs in the 166 - 200 MHz range, so a version
for this kind of PC could be appropriate.

For the Loran lines, in principle I could implement a logical filter, where you click
on the spur line, and that frequency will then be ignored by the decoding algorithm.
But this would not work if the spur frequency coincides with one of the slots....
I don't see an easy solution, but am open to suggestions.

Well, if you want to make a test transmission this evening, I will check that frequency.
But maybe a low power beacon would not make it to Italy... let me know please if
and when you will transmit, thanks.

Hi Rik,
   in this moment I am in my office at work, and don't have here an English dictionary,
so don't exactly know what a 'pock' is... but, as Steve Olney said, there always will
be some 'argue-naughty' around.. :-) But they are easily handled : just ignore them ...  ;-)

Your proposals look interesting, and, if someone will build the hardware, I am
willing to add this new interfacing mode. Just let's agree on the details.

Hi Dave and Alberto,

1. Alberto tks for the IFK software support.the screen presentation: marvelous!

2. 800x600 is ok here.

3. Dave, I`m QRV from now until 1700UTC and from abt 2000UTC until .... 
   137.5kHz is good, but 137.52kHz would be better bec there are eight strong 
   LORAN-C lines on .500 +/- 17Hz. on .520  +/- 17Hz only two strong lines. 
   pse do announce the time u will transmitt.

regards
Uwe/dj8wx jo43sv

My last posting on this subject fell on deaf ears so here is a direct appeal
:-)

Would it be possible for one of the highly expereinced Soundcard / Win95+
programmers outhy there to produce a SB compatible vectorscope prog ?  This
whould then allow anyone to view low data rate coherent signal coding in
real time, adjust frequency very accurately etc. etc etc.  AS well as
providing a very useful piece of software to use as test equipment for
tuning, propagation monitoring etc.

What is needed is a Numerically Tuned Oscillator under operator control that
can be set in real time, by mouse or keyboard.  This mixes down the input
from one channel of the soundcard to zero frequency I/Q components.  These
are low pass filtered and decimated to lower rates, under operator control.
The I/Q pairs are then simply displayed on a polar plot.   Gain control, or
scaling, will be required.  Alternatively, a slightly more complicated
plotting routines that plots radius on a log scale (dB) but preserves X/Y
phase information might give a nicer looking display.

In addition a graphical display of phase and amplitude would add a finishing
touch

Some sort of calibration routine would be needed for use, either feeding in
a tone of exact known frequency and adjusting the NCO for a stationary
trace.

I suggest an NCO tuning range of 300 - 2800 Hz in as fine a resolution as
possible, decimation and filtering by factors of 4 / 8/ 16 / 32 / 64 / 128 /
256  and a suitable gain / amplitude scaling control range.  In my
vectorscope using the separate DSP card, the X/Y display shows the previous
N samples, where N is under operator control of 32/64/128/256/512.  The
optimum number depends on the noisiness of the trace and residual frequency
error.

One can play endlessly with such a tool !

Hello Alberto,

I just read the Jason documentation. It looks most interesting and
promising, although there is some chance that some will call it 'pocks' ...
as 7FSK was called 'measles' ;-)
For transmitting Jason I was thinking of an alternative path, using a PLL
and let Jason control the divider (via LPT of COM port).
Least complex would be a 27.2xx MHz PLL in 50Hz steps that is divided by
200, what would give a 136kHz signal in 0.250Hz steps. Since Jason uses
0.252Hz steps the error over 32 steps would be 0.064Hz (or 76% of a bin).
As I read from the documentation Jason can handle errors of +/- 1 bin,
would the 0.064Hz error be acceptable ?
An alternative (and a bit more complex) would be to make a 26.9xxMHz PLL in
50Hz steps and divide it by 198, resulting in a 0.2525252Hz step and
reducing the overall error to 0.0168Hz (20% of a bin). Jason would surely
have no problem to handle this error, but it would be a bit more complex to
read out the exact frequency at 136kHz (due to the odd step).
A second alternative would be to use a HF tranceiver (with transverter
output) on 13.6MHz and divide the signal by 100. As most modern HF
tranceivers can be controlled via the serial port and can be tuned in 10Hz
steps (= 0.01Hz on 136kHz) this might be a easy and low cost alternative.

Thanks Alberto.

I tried the 850MHz P3 laptop and it works fine. Obviously the 200MHz machine
is not good enough, I will have to upgrade the shack computer :-(
I made a very weak signal and listened to it on a live receiver so it was
against real band noise. A problem seems to be that there will always be a
Loran line in the window so the system has trouble decoding if the wanted
signal is weaker than the Loran line. We'll have to see how this works in
practice.
Thanks for the tip about the receive window, very useful!
My shack PC is in 800x600 with no problems .
I have made a few test transmissions at low power, so if anyone wants to try
it let me know and I'll send a beacon signal on 137.5.
Or even a QSO?

73.

Hi Dave,
   thanks for the tests and the report.
Well, I can tell you how I tested Jason. Maybe you could initially do a similar test,
to rule out any radio-related issue.
I had it generate the audio tones, running on a laptop, then I brought the laptop
upstairs, with the speaker volume adjusted for a low setting.
Then I started Jason in Rx mode on the PC in the shack, dowstairs, with input
coming from a microphone, which picked up the tones generated by the laptop.
In the shack the sound was so low that I was unable to hear it, but I had perfect
copy. I even switched on a radio tuned on an empty portion of the 144 MHz, SSB,
to have some sort of white audio noise in the room. Still perfect copy.

Please try the above, which do not require any radio (but needs two PCs), to see
what happens. Thanks.

About what you ask:
- Garbage : there is not a clear screen function. Hey, this is just an alpha version !  :-)
- There is no need to start the Tx and the Rx in a synchronized way. Of course it will
   take one or two characters to get in synch.
- If you put the program in Tx mode, without any text present on the lower input pane,
   it will transmit an idle sequence composed of the lower and the higher frequencies
   of the range. Their difference in frequency is outside the allowed range, so no
   decoding will occur, but you can use the traces to place them exactly between the
   two yellow lines.
- Each character takes about 24 seconds to show on the screen, for a throughput
   of roughly 2.5 characters per minute.

About tuning : the white lines on the spectrogram window related to the received
signal must entirely be within the two yellow lines. If the tuning steps of your Rx
are too coarse for this (many Rx have 10Hz as the minimum step, and this can not
be fine enough), you can position the receiving window with the mouse.
Just left-click with the mouse on the approximate center of the various white lines
of the signal. The receiving window will be moved so that the point you clicked on will
be positioned exactly half way between the two yellow lines.
Probably you will have to use this technique when testing with audio only, as described
above, due to the differences between sampling rate of different sound cards.

One last thing, about the CPU speed needed. I made all the tests with a 750 MHz Athlon,
and I observed that the CPU utilization was around 40 - 50 %.
To gather a good statistics of the signal, in Jason I do a 131072 points FFT 10 times per
second (roughly). Maybe this is too much for a 200 MHz CPU.  If this will prove to
be the case, it is a matter of changing some constants to slow it down.

Oh, still one final point  : I have a report that working at 800 x 600 resolution the program
displays incorrectly its screen. Probably this can be fixed.

[.....]

Yes, of course. I have already computed the DDS phase increment offsets for the
32 tones. My present guess of the delta-f is:

5512.5(standard Fs/2) * 3(FFT bins per step) / 0x10000(something with FFT & power
of two)... ? Please correct me if I am wrong.

By the way, what happens if a signal slides from one FFT bin to another?
Will it be a smooth transition so that the power is approximately -3dB in the bins
that surrounds the signal when the signal is in the middle? I guess there is a way
to get the correct total signal power even if the signal is not exactly on an FFT bin
(frequency wise)? I've had no experience with this windowing stuff, I've only read
a little about it... I'm just curious...

make Jason work across the room.
I am using sound-card TX mode as I have an SSB exciter on 136 kHz so I can
transmit Jason OK if anyone wants a test.
I adjusted audio level to get nice clear thin lines on the spectral display,
centered between the yellow lines.
Even when connecting audio direct from TX PC to RX PC I still can't get a
good copy.
I just get occasional wrong characters like / or ,


I have discovered:
It seems to work on every PC I've tried, no problems like with Spectran.
Even the 100Meg machine sends OK but I have yet to get a good decode.
My RX PC is a P200, is this fast enough?
Tomorrow I will try an 850Meg machine, if that doesn't work I will be very
confused...

Operational questions:
How do you clear garbage from the RX screen?
Do you need to start the TX after the RX is running or will it pick up a
signal half-way through a long message?
Is there a way of transmitting a long start tone (seems to be centre
frequency) for alignment purposes?
How long should it take to display a character on the screen?

Very exciting, I like to have new toys to play with!

73.
Dave.

Hello Group.

  I have just found another of the nice 'features' of Windows....
If you have your Windows set for 'Large Fonts', Jason is
totally unusable (as a matter of fact, you are unable even to
close it).

So, for the time being, until I find a workaround to this, please
be sure to have your Windows installation set to 'Small Fonts',
if you want to test Jason.    Thanks Bill...

Hi Johan,
   thanks for your nice words. Yes, the serial format is 9k6 8N1.
In the technical description I have been misleading about the use of the DDS.
Re-reading it, I see that one could infer from what I wrote that the DDS should generate
an audio frequency. This is not of course the case, as the DDS is used to generate
the carrier at 136kHz. The frequency values reported in that table are to be added
to the nominal value of the carrier generated by the DDS. Sorry for the confusion.

Another thing I forgot to say (but it could be derived from the other values) is
the throughput. Sending a nibble every (roughly) 12 seconds, means 2.5 full characters
per minute. Not a speed champion, but it must be compared with QRSS.....

I believe that some of you are using the DDS VFO designed by G0MRF?
If there is interest, I will write a new PIC program for it to support Jason.
The DFCW keying pin could be used as input for serial data from the PC.

BTW, Alberto, what is the serial format? 9k6 8N1? (the o'scope is not within reach :-)
The "user interface" is really a piece of art! Wow! I hope it will work as good as it looks.

Well done, Jim!  Wonder if ALL 400 kv lines emit similar sigs? I'll try the 
South Coast trunk line next time I get down there.  Could be that's what 
Laurie is hearing.
Have now calibrated the loop and it seems pretty accurate after all.  Got 
within two degs on all the amateur 136 sigs I've heard so far.

A first QSO to anywhere by any method means that a person was in the
right place at the right time and stayed up all night to achieve the
object, especially in the case of Transatlantic. I have had some firsts
and the same criteria applies, in some cases luck, then having seized
the opportunity expertise and skill play a part.
Recently some of us up and down the UK and in other parts of EU have
decided to sit up late and are now doing better than so called Firsts
and still using the same old transmitters, antennas and QRS mode varying
from 2 sec dots- 60 sec dots, DFCW and a recent Measles mode with spots
galore!!
Perhaps we should have stayed up later some years ago to become an
obsolete First.

I hope you get the cooperation you are asking for - and not a dreary saga of

I have downloaded Jason and hope to play this weekend.

Hello group,

   I have devised a novel coding scheme, and have written a new
software to support it.

I have named it Jason, from the name of the coxswain of the mythological
ship Argo, which was headed to Colchis by the Greek hero Jason.

The coding scheme of Jason is based on the ideas about IFK that can be found
on the Web site of Steve Olney, VK2ZTO.

I need your cooperation to test it. I have done some preliminary tests, which
have given very good results, but a true test on the LF hasn't been performed
yet.  Instead of cluttering this reflector with the gory technical details of Jason,
I invite you to visit this page :  http://www.weaksignals.com/jason

You can use Jason with a mosfet Class-D Tx, no need for a linear amp.
You can drive the Tx either using a DDS board connected via the parallel port or
the serial port, or up converting an audio signal generated by Jason.

I tested only the audio interfacing. I need someone who volunteers for testing
the interfacing via the DDS board (I haven't one), with true on-the-air tests.

Thanks for any cooperation

73  Alberto  I2PHD

Dear LF Group

Someone gave me a Christmas present of the excellent 'Low Frequency
Experimenter's Handbook' by Peter Dodd G3LDO which is full of technical
advice and practical construction articles for those interested in LF
work. Now I had already purchased a copy of this book some time ago so I
wondered what I should do with this spare copy that I now have.

I was going to send it to Big Kev as I know he has secretly yearned for
his own copy of Peter's book for a long time. Perhaps Big Kev would take
it as a small token of appreciation for all the selfless support he has
given to those on this reflector and in recognition of his own superior
technical and operating abilities, (on all modes).

Then I thought 'Sod it - why should I?'

So if anyone would like to contribute 50% of the book's current price
(16.14 pounds) to a charity of their choice, I will be glad to let them
have it.

73, Tom G3OLB.

John,
yes,i was transmitting. I started much later just around 5:30 UTC untill
6:30, so you copied only the beginning of my transmission.
The power i use is limited to 1,5 kW by corona discharge at the ends of
my T vertical 15 mt high, 100 mt long.

Thank you for the report John, hope for a x-band qso soon.

'73 IK5ZPV, Valerio

Have u been watching around 2200 utc onwards for any sigs around the usual
135.922 khz.
F6BWO has been on and I have been going on for short periods. I think others
have been on also from UK/EU.
Where can I get the email address for VE7SL and VE1ZZ. I never see any msgs
from them via the reflector. I prefer to email direct for their acty
details.

Dear LF Group,

Since it seemed the mystery carrier on 136.647kHz might be somewhere near 
Watford, only about 10 miles from my QTH, I went out on Sunday morning 
armed with a loop antenna and RX, a compass and my field strength measuring 
gear. After taking a few bearings, the source did indeed turn out to be 
near Watford - it comes from some overhead power lines.

Although there are many national grid lines in the area, I found that the 
signal clearly came from one particular line, which appears to be the main 
feed line for a sub-station at Patchett Green, beside the M1 motorway just 
east of Watford (next door to the Hare Krishna temple!), at 51 39' 39" N, 0 
20' 31" W. According to the ordnance survey map, it runs for about 32km, 
roughly on a bearing of 340degrees, terminating at a sub-station near 
Chalton, just north of Dunstable. The signal level underneath the lines was 
fairly constant up to 5km from the Watford end, so I assume it is actually 
propagating along the full length of line. The field strength is only of 
the order of 10mV/m directly under the wires, so there can't be much power 
involved - however, since it is several wavelengths long and on big pylons 
it is probably a reasonably efficient radiator. I suppose the ERP is of the 
order of milliwatts.

As to why there is a 136kHz signal going down a 400kV power line, I really 
don't know - could it be a power line signalling system like the ones used 
by utilities in the USA, which have been an obstacle for those campaigning 
for an LF amateur band there? I have never been able to detect any 
modulation on the signal, so it can't be used very much if it is.

Cheers, Jim Moritz

I found your 1 Hz DFCW quite comfortable, using slow scrolling and 0.34 Hz 
resolution (eg. Spectrogram at 5512 Hz sampling rate or 3s Argo).

Hello Dave,

thanks for the hint, also Fabian and Jeff have told me that 1 Hz shift for
DFCW might be not enough. I need to find another solution. Currently I
shift the 120 MHz main oscillator build into the DDS by varying the supply
voltage of the sealed chrystal oscillator, so 1 Hz is the maximum I can get
(actually I can vary between 0 and 1 Hz). Probably I need to build a
separate 120 Mhz oszillator with a larger variance, so that I get at least
3 or 4 Hz at 136 kHz ... 

Hope Fabian, DJ1YFK (our youngest LF operator in DL!) makes it over to you,
it is surprising how good his little 40 Watt tx works. By the way: QRSS
must be a real challenge for Fabian, he normall is a HSC guy ... 

Best 73

Geri, DK8KW (W1KW)

Fabian.

Please try again if you hear (see) me. I would have been able to copy if the
noise had stayed away. You also had a slight drift which took you across a
Loran line which didn't help!

Hi Dave,

It was me! I called u several times, first with QRSS3 then with QRSS5, but
it didn't work unfortunately. Your signals were great here (audible!). My
ERP is in the range of 10 mW, so I was very happy that you got the "YFK" at
least (see screenshot attached)...

Next weekend I will be QRV from our clubstation and use a 160m-Dipole @ 10m
which will certainly be a big improvement to my antenna at home (1/100
wavelength wire...) .
Hope to meet you then (in QRSS or norm-CW)

Hello Geri.

I saw you on DFCW today but with Argo set for 3 sec dots, your shift was too
small to read easily. My slow PC will not go fast enough to read it any
other way!
Who was the "1YFK" (I think) station you worked. I tried to work him but
bursts of noise took out his full call?

Cheers
Dave
G3YXM.

>Saw DK8KW qrssing with F6BWO today, so Geri seems to have fixed his TX.<

... that is true, but I don't dare to do any long transmissions currently,
because I fear to loose my PA again ... I need to find a better solution,
which is more resitant against the heat build-up during long-term
transmissions.

I surely will joint in to the T/A tests at a later stage.

Dear John,

Nope, my last TA slot transmission was Monday morning (Jan 7th). Had tried 
agn Tuesday but given up, no current due to the thick frost on the ant. I'll 
give it another go later tonight (135922.3/.4 DFCW, 100s on 33s off), which 
should still be in view alongside Valerio.

Saw DK8KW qrssing with F6BWO today, so Geri seems to have fixed his TX.

    Jeff/F6BWO will be looking for a TA qso/report most late evenings
around 2300
UTC onwards on a clear freq around 135.922 khz. He will be using the
norm 60 sec dots but will try various down to 10 sec dot.
He asked me to QSP this info when we had a QSO earlier on today on 136
khz cw. He will also be QRV on 7025 khz for possible xband.

Hi Brian  (and the Group) The only thing I received today was another e-mail
with an odd alphabet, so the subject shows up as 'odd' chars.....BUT it was
purported to have come from ME !! So anyone seeing anything like this from
my address (all small letters) ,dont open, delete immediately. I dont think
this is anything to do with Brian, but you never know. It is time-stamped
2019 this evening (Fri). I do get a steady stream of these type of messages
probably originating in Eastern Europe. The latest was 1kbyte and no
attachments.
Heigh-Ho the joys of the internet.
I will go back to using initial capitals for the time being (both work on
incomming).

Cheers de Alan G3NYK

Thanks, Jim and Geri.

After sending previous email DF'd on DCF49 (128.93 carrier) and got 092 deg 
so solved mystery.
Also DF'd on the multiple weak carriers around 136000 and found some were 
on the same
bearing as DCF39 and the others on DCF49's bearing. So are they 
intermodulation products?
If so why on 136000 give or take a few Hz?
I know we went over all this some years ago but I've lost the emails.

Walter G3JKV.

Walter,

>Apparent direction of sig on 136647 from here is 352/172 deg True. If
Jim's 
235 degs from Hertford is correct then it's located in Watford!
But I don't trust it too much. I get a bearing of 079 True for DCF which 
puts it in the Magdeburg area whereas I think it's near Frankfurt
which would be 093 deg.
Walter G3JKV.<

... your bearing is absolutely correct, DCF39 is in Burg near Magdeburg!

Dear Walter, LF Group,

DK8KW's web pages ( http://www.qru.de/dcf39-beacon.html ) have extensive 
info on DCF39, including that it IS located near Magdeburg - so maybe I 
should go snooping round Watford!

Cheers, Jim Moritz

May I start with apologies.

On switching on this morning the modem was called and connected
to the ISP before I called the e-mail programme.  Watching in open
mouthed amazement the system blasted goodness knows what into
"ether" of the www before I reacted and tore the modem cable out
of the wall socket.

The virus protection programme eventually told me it was

W32/MsInit.worm.b residing in Window/System/Wininit.exe

It would appear unlikely to have arrived as an attachment and 
probably was received while working with I_Link yesterday.
Computers with the "C" drive "share" open are said to be
vulnerable.  I sincerely hope I have not passed this menace
on to anybody and apologise again if I have.

Dear LF Group,

I noticed the signal from Rugby on 73.25kHz had gone QRT last night; This 
morning it was back on again, but transmitting an unmodulated carrier. If 
it stays like this for a while, it could be a good opportunity for 2 way 
73kHz activity. At about 2200 the band was otherwise quiet apart from an S9 
FSK signal on about 73.6, which I assume must have been CFH - first time I 
have been able to hear it on this frequency.

I also saw QRSS with various dot lengths from F6BWO around 135.922 - I 
think Jeff must be using a VFO since the signal was drifting up and down by 
a couple of Hz. This made the long dot lengths rather blurred on the 
waterfall display and probably not very effective for DX as a result. 
Shorter dot lengths were fine though.

Cheers, Jim Moritz

F6BWO hopes to TX tonight and possibly the next few nights on a clear
slot around 135.922 khz and would like the VE and W stations to look out
for him. He will be listening on 7025 khz for a xband QSO if possible.
Suggested times 2230 - 0100 utc.
I wish him luck.

Is that the best you can do ?    No denial that you are now a
self-proclaimed proficient lazy man's CW operator ? (oops - you can't do
that :-).    No denial that you are a self-proclaimed Grade 3 operator ?
(oops - you can't do that :-).     No denial that you cause QRM by running
60 second dots at high power ? (oops - you can't do that :-).    No denial
that you are just an appliance operator ? (oops - you can't do that :-).
All that would require you to disagree with yourself.   Must be confusing.

Saddest of all is there is no acknowledgement that you are riding on the
backs of the very pioneers you harangued in the past.    My worst fears have
been realised - apparently the only big thing about you is the artificial
erections you drone on about ad nauseam  (I thought I might try Latin as you
apparently have difficulty with your native tongue - even when you type it
yourself :-).

You have proved to at least my self that I was wrong.   I have been using
the very affectionate nickname "BIG KEV".     That is quite obviously
inappropriate as your failure to properly give due credit to the pioneers
proves.    I need to get realistic and change that to "small mal".    I
thought (because of your difficulty reading your native tongue) to utilise
other languages to represent that affectionate nickname.    For example "der
Kleine Mal" - this rhymes with "decliner Mal", but that was ambiguous as you
have certainly declined to credit those whose work you have used to your own
advantage, however, you didn't decline to harangue those same benefactors in
the past.   Another possibility was "il piccolo Mal" - but that is too
reminiscent of yet another mode which is off the official Mal approval list
(but keep checking - it may soon have the royal approval - like QRSS :-).

No, it will just have to chance my arm with your native language (which I am
assuming is English) and move forward with the use of the very affectionate
nickname of "petite mal".

Yours affectionately
Steve VK2ZTO

    The book published here today by a man from AUS could be a best
seller.
The Lazymans CW for LF
 It could rival the LF paperback already in circulation, and selling at
a big price.
The public would buy anything.

John,  try  www.microchip.com    microid section. download the rfid system

G'day Mal (alias BIG KEV),

Although you have brought some humorous technical arguments to this
reflector for the amusement of many, it is sad to chronicle the
deterioration of such a leading light as yourself.    By your own
definitions you have deteriorated into a lazy CW operator, nodding off to
sleep in QSOs, and have become a self-categorised Grade 3 operator (see
pronouncements from your own good self below).     By your own standards you
have become a nuisance using slow CW at high powers (see below).     By your
own pronouncements you have engaged in the sordid activity of getting
confirmations of a machine-generated mode from a digital receiving system
using computer means on a video monitor (see below).

I hope the deterioration has not reached a stage where you are incapable
through some infirmity to acknowledge the hard work done by others to blaze
a pioneering path (in the face of your harassment) which you now utilise for
your own aggrandisement.   That would be a sad spectacle.

But I am sure that someone who is apparently BIGGER in almost every aspect
is big enough to acknowledge that you are riding on the back's of the
pioneers and hard workers which you so roundly chastised in the past.
Then again I could be wrong - maybe the only thing big about you is the size
of your antennas, your real-estate or the amount of watts you pump into the
ether.  I hope not.

The world according to BIG KEV :-

"To date all qrss activity that I have seen could be
copied on normal aural cw at my qth. I suppose if one has a poor
antenna, low power and a noisy qth then maybe qrss is the only way if
you must work on 136 khz. Fortunately I do not have these problems.
73 de Mal/G3KEV"

"Qrss is discouraging experimenters from improving their antennas,
receivers and associated equipment to make a normal aural qso. It is also
encouraging nodding off (sleeping) during the hours that it takes to get a
MMM.
OOO, OXO etc
I hope the lazy mans cw will not prevail above 20 khz !!!
73 de Mal/G3KEV"

"Is the computer generated qrss send/receive mode recognised for DXCC
purposes, also where does xband qso's fit in. For those seeking glory
there could be a disappointment.
G3KEV"

"so that I can hear you
properly and not have to use LAZY MANS CW.

73 de G3KEV"

"Suggested awards for those long haul qso's across the atlantic.

Grade 1......
Grade 2.....
Grade 3
Those using .... and a sophisticated computer generated mode like very slow
cw,...
Good Luck de G3KEV"

"At present it seems to be the TAIL WAGGING THE DOG with the few trying to
convince the rest of us that we should go to psk, lazy mans cw generated and
displayed by a video monitor, or long long dashes on high power causing qrm
to the rest of potential users of the band
Critic/G3KEV"

"Beacons and slow cw are a
nuisence especally when using high power and going on for HOURS.
G3KEV"

"Considering the bandwith constraints on both 73 and 136 khz the most
efficient method is normal CW whether it be qrs or normal speed where
applicable.
...
My suggestion as previously stated it to learn and operate conventional
CW and know your appropriate Q codes and use QRS or normal speed as
appropriate.
73 De G3KEV"

"I tried some 60 sec dot qrs last night for a short time around 2330...

The old system worked very well when everyone was on QRS side by side
73 and Happy New Year to all de Mal/G3KEV"

"...or any advantage
over QRS which takes the minimum bandwith of all the modes to achieve the
object on a very narrow band.

the only suitable mode for this
band is CW, normal speed and QRS.
G3KEV"

"Thanks John for the confirmation that my signals were visible and readable
last
night.
I will be on tonight at the same time 2300 - 0200 approx same qrg 135.922
khz and
qrs 60 sec dots.
de Mal/G3KEV"

"Yes I would like the screen shots please.
de Mal/G3KEV"

Hi, John (G3WKL):

Texas Instruments RF-ID system specs should be found at
http://www.ti.com/tiris/main.htm

If you do a search for Specifications, it presents a
full page list of specs, which can be called up in
PDF form.

RF-ID is on LF, while TIRIS is UHF.

Motorola has a 125 kHz system; it has been used
in the grim task at the WTC, where employees
wore RF-ID badges.

Yes Rich, i agree with you, the problem that you have is like we have also
here in Italy, no activity from South, not many station in Central/ North,
except few I5, one I1, few I2, the Alps in North do the rest.
I am tryng now to made a station in 136, but the bigger problem is that
there are not activity to test the equipment, here we dont have the CW
activity like in DL and G centered at 136.5,  so the low activity on
saturday/sunday that we can receive here is only in qrss at 137.7, for
average station.
So, for me a beacon network  like the network that we have in 20 and upper
band, may be no bad, for example at 135.7, sweepping normal cw, qrss 3,
qrss10 dfcw etc.
In this way the hams may set the receiving side, and try the better way to
receive with the PC and software at different speed and mode of emission,
and later, to transmitt.
In other way is a very difficult band, not all the people may test the
station with the big signal from Ik5ZPV (599) or OM2TW (599+) at 135.922 in
the night!
I believe that soon i'll put in air a low power beacon here in I2, to help
the local hams in this band.

73 to all, and i hope to meet someone soon on the band (when i'll be ready,
yes!!)

Hello John.
You handled simultaneous QSO,S very well last night. I was running QRP
and
delighted that you were able to copy everything first time, hence the
speedy
QSO again.
If convenient, next time that we QSO I will gradually reduce the power
to a
few watts just to see how low I can get to maintain a QSO.
I am using my old home built fet PA that does not run much power anyway
even
flat out. I wonder
what the signal would be like if I had one of the DECCA JEEPS running
around
1.2 - 1.5 KW
output to the antenna. I have heard these are popular south of Watford.
I usually switch on the TX about 2130utc and you seem to hear me right
away.
I QRT usually between 2300 and Midnight and always QAP/QRV on 7025 khz
for
xband contacts to VE and W

73 and tnx agn de Mal/G3KEV

Hi Ko,

Laurie has explained the back-lite on the RA1792.  The BITE stands for
Built-In-Test-Equipmet and refers to a self-test software routine available
on some versions of RA1792.  I had about 60 of these receivers a few years
ago and found that the internal noise varied .. many of them had the pre-set
I.F. gain incorrectly set ... a quick adjustment cured most of them.  Some
models are fitted with Collins mechanical filters, and others with Crystal
ones. ( all at 455 Khz apart from a 16 kHz B.W. roofing filter )

Hope that is of use,

73 de Graham B. Phillips.  G3XTZ.

Inductive RFIDs that operate at 134.8kHz pose a possible treat in the future
to the noise floor in the 136kHz amateur band.  A paper is currently being
considered internationally that would allow an increase in the modulation
sidebands, falling in the 136kHz band and elsewhere, from the RFID system.

One item of detail omitted from the papers that are being reviewed is a
precise specification of the transmit spectrum from the RFID "readers" as
the interrogators are termed.   It is assumed that it is a flat spectrum
with constant spectral density.

Grateful if anyone can provide me with more detail of the system's
modulation scheme / transmit spectrum.

Subject: LF: 136kHz Guideline rather than Bandplan

I write this e-mail to help clarify the position and reduce the tension
caused by a RSGB draft guideline for 136kHz that has wrongly been termed a
"bandplan" by some users of this list.

Back in 1999 when the RSGB, DARC and other national societies discussed the
need for a Bandplan for 136kHz under IARU Region 1 auspices, a clear
resolution was made that a bandplan would be inappropriate for the new band.
Many of the reasons expressed in the recent e-mails to this list were given,
e.g. the need to promote experimentation and flexible usage of the narrow
band given to amateur usage.  IARU also agreed that permanent beacons would
not be promoted as in-band and transmissions near to the amateur allocation
could adequately server as propagation indicators.  Recognising that some
guidance would be helpful to users, particularly amateurs new to the band, a
Code of Practice was carried with 30 votes FOR, 6 votes AGAINST and 5
abstentions.  The code,  REC/99/LH/C4.6 is as follows:

a) No sub-division of the band 135.7137.8 kHz are made for local or DX
contacts or specific modes.

b) Taking the above into consideration, and that there are LORAN C spurii
present, that the 6.6 Hz segment centred on 136.45485 kHz is used for narrow
band transmissions.  Narrow band transmissions are also preferred above
137.6 kHz.

c) Stations should make use of a stable VFO or synthesiser to encourage the
acceptance of common frequency working.

d) Transmitter testing should be carried out below 136 kHz.

e) Weekend mornings should be avoided for long duration transmitter testing.

f) Where possible, a telephone number should be incorporated in beacon
messages.

Since 1999, the evolving nature of the experiments and successes on 136kHz
suggest that the guideline is appropriate for revision.  It is in this
spirit that some of the users of 136kHz band discussed proposals that I put
forward last October at the LF Forum of the RSGB HF/IOTA Convention.  The
Forum has become one of the gathering points for amateurs interested in the
band, hence it was appropriate to test the draft.  Taking account of the
majority views expressed at the Forum, the draft was amended and passed to
RSGB Board for submission to the IARU.  The detail of the proposal is
available on the RSGB HF Committee's web site at

http://www.g3wkl.freeserve.co.uk/lf/136kHz.html

When the IARU Region 1 discuss the RSGB proposals there will be ample
opportunity for differing views from other national societies and a majority
vote within Region 1 will be taken.  I am sure that the mood of the
discussion will be to avoid the regulation that many of us, including
myself, would consider inappropriate for the band. We certainly don't want
to damage the innovative technology and communication experiments that as
far as amateur radio is concerned are a differentiating feature of the band.

In the case of 136kHz the guideline / code of practice is merely a mechanism
for helping to optimise the use of the small band, amongst regular, new and
occasional users and experimenters when there are no specific prevailing
factors that define the operating frequency and practice.

As always I e-mail with some reluctance as I don't wish to encourage
inflamatory remarks, to me an unfortunate aspect of Internet usage

Hello Ko,

I have a RACAL 6790 GM and it also has "BITE"
In the case of this receiver it means :Built In Test Equipment"

When a special sequence of buttons are pushed the receiver will go through a
series of tests
to make sure it is operating properly.

If not it will return an error number on the screen which should aid in
troubleshhooting.

Dear LF group, 

Can anyone explain to me what "BACK LiTE & BiTE Fitted" means.
My 1950 dictionary doesn't show it and i might be to young to know.

BTW, is the RA1792 a Do or A don't?
Thanks in advance

Hi all Had two xband QSOs last night simultaneously.  G3KEV was on 60
sec dots G3AQC was on 30 sec dots with DFCW There was plenty of time to
interweave the reports es answers.
    Laurie I don't like this format you are transmitting with.  It is
harder to read and I don't think it gains much in the long run.
Sometimes you are transmitting on two frequencies es this buys very
little.  It means you are sending faster, but the elements you double up
on have only half the radiated power so it doesn't help when sigs are
weak

Dear Andy, LF Group,
I wouldn't be too surprised - even in 50Hz audio bandwidth, the signal was 
quite broken up by noise, and I doubt if I would have been able to copy the 
fast CW ID. In my experience with QRSS signals, a fast CW ID produces 
rather vague blobs at the sideband frequencies on the spectrogram even if 
it goes on for a long time - so since this CW ID would have been very 
short, and the FFT uses a 23s run of data to generate each pixel, the 
sidebands would be very faint and easily lost in the noise on this 
spectrogram. On the un-edited image, there are several blurs that could be 
the ID, but which might equally well be noise.

Cheers, Jim Moritz

I am surprised that no one has noticed that there is already a Bandplan
in operation on 136 khz.
All the QRS activity is centred around 135.920 khz and 137.650 khz plus
or minus some hz. Other modes like psk, and measles use adjacent
frequencies to the above.
Normal CW is usually spread between 136 - 137 khz.

Interesting that there appears to be no sign of the callsign ident.....

This was sent every 15.1 minutes approx (the .1 was the callsign itself) 24
WPM as on-off keying, completely independent of the PSK data - so is almost
guaranteed to be in there somewhere.  Timing of the ID CW signal was derived
from a ceramic resonator so is only within a percent of the right speed.

The sidebands of the high bandwidth keying will occur at multiples of the
keying rate, ie 10 Hz sidebands here with a few at 3.3 Hz due to the dashes.
Whatever, Jim's reception was in too narrow a bandwidth to be influenced by
this so he saw only the spreading caused by the phase transitions.  There
ought to be a slight reduction in strength during the keying ID sequence,
but the central trace is too saturated to make this out.

Dear LF group,

A number of people expressed an interest in my reception of G4JNT's PSK 
beacon, so here is 1/2 hour from the spectrogram from Monday night, 
hopefully edited down to a reasonable size for the reflector.

As you can see, the phase transitions show up as "beads" on the carrier ( 
with Spectrum Lab I used 11025 sample rate, divided by 4, and 65k FFT 
length to get 0.042Hz resolution - what I would usually use for 30sec 
dots). Note there is a time lag between the 30s markers and the phase 
transitions, presumably due to the time taken for the FFT to acquire 
samples. To find the data sequence, we know that the first logic level at 
the end of the period 21:00:00 to 21:00:30 is a 0; we can see a phase 
transition occurs at the beginning of the 21:00:30 to 21:01:00 period, so 
that the second data bit must be 1 - and so on for all 30 bit periods. If 
there is a phase transition at the beginning of a bit period, the data in 
that bit period is inverted from the previous data bit; if no transition, 
the data is the same as the previous period.

Cheers, Jim Moritz

------------------------------------
The original question, I believe, was for software that would show the phase
of received signal / audio tone based on an internally generated reference.
This would obviously have to be at a specified frequency, but could easily
be generated by software using a Numerically Controlled Oscillator (a DDS in
software).  The procedure is to generate COS and SIN waveforms at the
specified frequency, which are jusst two sinewaves in software 90 degrees
apart.   Multiplying each of these by the incoming signal gives two
products, I and Q components respectively, these are usually then passed
through a  (software) low pass filter.  When displayed on a graph such that
the I compont is on the horizontal axis and the Q component on the vertical
a good representation of the signal in vector space is seen.  Such a display
is usually called a Vectorscope.

A clean tone with no noise appears as a dot on the screen, whose distance
from the origin is the amplitude.  A frequency error between the tone and
internal reference causes the dot to rotate around a circle at the
difference frequency - anticlockwise for a frequency too low and clockwise
for too high.  So this is a very good way of measuring exact frequency.
Noise appears as a amorphous circle around the dot.   The instantaneous
phase (relative to the internal reference, Roger) of a signal can be
determined immediately just by its position on the vectorscope

Soundcards are usually too unstable for this - their internal clock sources
are notoriously drifty and innacurate.  However, for those who understand
Windoze programming (All Hail !) it is quite a simple piece of software to
write.  It needs a user defined NCO which can be tuned in very fine steps -
0.01 Hz error only takes 100 seconds to complete a whole revolution.
Amplitude needs to be controlled - you can have a log/dB display of
amplitude versus radius. An alternative would be to use the left channel as
the signal input and the right as a user supplied reference tone.  This
would not have the versatility of an NCO appraoch, but could ensure absolute
freqeuncy stability of the display.

A more advanced and better solution would be to use a reference input tone
to continuously determine the Soundcard sampling rate, then use this
calculated figure in setting the NCO.

I use the 56002EVM module with its clock locked to a freqeuncy standard to
do the downconversion of a signal sampled at 8kHz.  The NCO is set in steps
of 8000 / 2^24 Hz.  The zero frequency I/Q samples are filtered and
decimated (reduced in sampling rate) to values of 800 right down to 1.95
samples per second.  These are output to a PC via a serial link for further
processing.  This basic tuning / decimation / filtering routine for the EVM
forms the workhorse of just about everything I do in the DSP line these
days, splitting the processing between two boxes really makes for easy
writing of software using a 66 MHz 486 running in a DOS environment !

<BR>&gt; Another one worth mentioning is G3LDO and OH1TN's 73/136k QSO, which is

<BR>
<BR>Hi Jim
<BR>Surely a xband Transatlantic QSO between Canada/USA to the UK is more of an
<BR>achievement
<BR>and especially those of us that have made several and not just a ONE OFF,
<BR>than one just up the road. I frequently work OH1TN at 589/589 each way
<BR>daytime or night.
<BR>I consider this a local qso to the UK.
<BR>Why single this particular qso out.
<BR>Does one have to be a RSGB member to get a mention ?? if so this distorts
<BR>the reality of what is really happening on LF by those that are not
<BR>members.

Hi-ho

I am convinced that "Gentlemen's agreement" will work much
better than a band plan (provided that all involved are gentlemen...)
New modes evolves almost every day. Let them prosper!

The 2100Hz "wide" LF band does not need a band plan carved
in stone! There is only a handful of operators on the LF band.
Compare that to the >10e6 operators that are active on HF...

Most, if not ALL, of the LF operators are connected to this mail
reflector - it should be fairly easy to coordinate things - if the need
should ever arise...

Remember that occasional interferers on the band is only a
phonecall/e-mail away and you can easily stop them when you
have a very important message to convey via LF... :-)
Interfering signals escape with the speed of light... (3e8m/s)
Why bother about a band plan when it can be solved on a
day-to-day basis?

This mail reflector, on the other hand, seems to need some kind
of a "band plan"... The S/N ratio is getting worse...

What is most fun? Exploring radio or making rules (or perhaps
throwing flames on an email reflector)?

Hihi... <g> :-) etc..

"All the time" - as in 100%.   Surely an overstatement.

And there is the key.   CW IS allowed anywhere.

In all the discussion I don't see any opposition to bandplans which are
utilised in the manner for which they are intended - to **minimise**
interference.   The opposition comes from those who don't like the *mis-use*
of bandplans to keep one group out of another groups sandpit.   There have
been many instances where people has been harassed for daring to stray into
someone's sandpit.   This has turned bandplans in many cases into
un-gentleman's agreements.

Ok, it was decided *not* to be made.

Hang on - now it *is* to be made ???   que pasa ?

In any case, while I don't agree with some of your arguments, I am heartened
by the fact that you have presented your arguments in a clear, logical and
precise way.    If all the responses to those who have strayed into the
wrong segment were greeted with this kind of mature response, I wager that
there would be more people voting for a bandplan.

(P.S.   I wish I was presented with the problem of overcrowding here in VK -
at least I might have someone to QSO with in the 200km radius that I am able
to get a signal out on LF)

What exactly is the meaning of "actrivity".      Does it mean engaging in a
"trivial activity" ?

Not sure whether this is:-

a) a new word as above
b)a freudian slip
c)a typo

I have belatedly seen your queery about phase.  In the  abstract their is
no answer to your question for phase reqires a reference i.e the phase of
something relative to ....???     (i.e another part of the wave).   In the
limit the phase must always close;  Nature abhors odd bits of phase (see
papers in J. Inst Phs and M.N.R.A.S. by a chap called  Jennison, c1960) it
is now known as the principle of Phase Closure.

A dry washcloth should suffice, Paul.

You surmise correctly on your first question.  Earth currents can induce
noise into a loop.  Sometimes there's not too much effect, sometimes quite a
bit.  Moreover, the proximity of the partially-conducting earth affects such
things as the depth of null you can obtain with the loop.

Second question:  Yes, height of the loop can make a difference in signal
strength.  It's not a linear relationship, but a bit of height may either
get you away from sources of noise, or improve signal strength, or both.

Third question, though:  It is not effective to "shield" a loop in the
manner you describe.  Currents in the fence will couple either signal or
noise--or both--into the loop, and also adversely affect its directional
properties.  It could eliminate your ability to achieve nulls in crucial
directions.

There are other ways, though, to utilize a loop in a unidirectional
configuration rather than bidirectional.  If you combine the output of a
loop with the output of a whip, with provision for matching the signal
levels of the two antennas, you can achieve quite a nice cardioid pattern in
situations where that would be more useful than the two nulls of a
figure-eight.  To learn more about steerable nulls and phasing and matching
of two antennas, I recommend visiting www.lwca.org and scrolling down to the
lower half of the home page.  Click the link for "On The Art of NDB DXing,"
and go to Chapters 4 and 5 for some very useful ideas.

Hi Jim
Surely a xband Transatlantic QSO between Canada/USA to the UK is more of an
achievement
and especially those of us that have made several and not just a ONE OFF,
than one just up the road. I frequently work OH1TN at 589/589 each way
daytime or night.
I consider this a local qso to the UK.
Why single this particular qso out.
Does one have to be a RSGB member to get a mention ?? if so this distorts
the reality of what is really happening on LF by those that are not
members.

Gentlemen,
I have 3 sort of odd questions that have been on my mind for awhile
Has anyone ever used a multiturn air core loop for LF that was mounted very
close to the ground?

I have built a very nice loop that I can tune fron 210 Khz to 73 Khz very
nicely.  Right now it is mounted on a few inches above the ground.  Now I
know that when raised to its final resting position 5 feet or so above the
ground that it is likely to change freq. range sligthly.

Here are my questions

I know that I can illuminate(to some extent) a light bulb by connecting it
to the hot side of the mains and grounding it to the earth indicating that
there can be significant current flow in the earth at 50/60 Hz.

1) Can there also be significant flow at harmonic frequencies of the 50/60
Hz?  If so does this mean that an antenna low to the ground like mine, could
be picking up some of that energy that may be in the LF bands?
Would raising it to 5 feet help eliminate some of that noise?

2) Does raising a loop have any effect on the received signal strength other
moving the antennas resonance point?

3) Is it possible to shield one side of a loop antenna  with say wire
fencing a few feet away to  elimiinate noise coming from 1 direction and
thus making the unidirectional instead of bi-directional.

After all are not we playing the game of signal against noise.  To extend
the range of a given station should much consideration be given to
minimizing the undesirable noise, either man-made or natural ?   Isn;t the
noise the limiting factor here?

Please tell me if I am all wet...  I will go get a towel

Thank you for information on these topics

Dear Mal,

So what holds up the other ends of the 4 inv L's? Must be quite a local 
landmark, your antenna.

Thanks John for the information, not too many with a QSO xband to VE and
I think only myself to date to the USA. Surprised so few are attempting
a QSO across the Atlantic, it is certainly more
exciting having a real time qso than a beacon report. I hope you are
getting on with your 136 TX, looking forward to a two way with you soon
hi. I would like the USA boys to start up also on 136 TX then we could
have some real excitement.
I am already set up to RX QRS, DFCW, and normal CW at the appropriate
speeds.
I use the same antenna for both TX/RX this end, just waiting for the
signals from North America.
The antenna I have been using for the recent Transatlantic QSO'S
consists of 4 inverted L's supported by a lattice tower at 105 ft high.
Each L is 105 ft vertical and each one has a horizontal top section of
300 ft. The 4 vertical bottom ends converge to a common feed point 4 ft
above ground, connected to about 400 micro henry loading coil and has a
small series coil to ground used
for resonating and fine tuning to get a 1:1 SWR.
Ground Radials consist of several 300 ft insulated wires, some
connected  at the far end to sheep fencing. All the wire for antennas
and radials is 2.5 mm insulated. The 4 inv L's are spaced at
90 degrees from each other around the tower.

Dear LF Group,

Another one worth mentioning is G3LDO and OH1TN's 73/136k QSO, which is 
probably the record LF/LF cross band QSO.

Greetings Walter....

>............By all means let's have a RECOMMENDED bandplan but to start 
>moaning when somebody occupies the "wrong" slot  for an hour or two in an 
>otherwise empty band is a bit rich.

I used to have a rather benign reaction to band planning, now I am a great 
deal more sensitive to it.  I have watched the American FCC Riley H. 
seemingly bringing bandplanning forward as having official sanction the 
Gov't will enforce.  Now on a good day Gov't is barely acceptable here and 
when I see this going on the warning bells start going off in a very loud 
clammer.

My reaction is further enhanced when I look back on the Packet Radio when 
we started that back in the mid 1970's.  We had three different systems 
here in Canada some years before the TAPR crowd started the TNC-1 and later 
the TNC-2 with its variant of the X-25 protocol.  Right after that got 
rolling in the early 80's the "lets bring some standards and planning to 
this process" people entered the scene and what became the huge bubble of 
Packet Radio came and then very naturally died from lack of further 
innovation.  The innovation was killed by the "do gooders" and frankly I 
have very little time for that crowd.

Our three Canadian packet radio system were able to talk to each other, we 
even had a, what became later known as a Worm Hole, a satellite link from 
Ottawa to Vancouver interconnecting two very different packet radio 
systems, this was again, some years before TAPR had its brain wave for the 
TNC-1.

My position is quite simple, until I see that Band Planning is really 
benign I am basically against it, amateur radio is not in good health, we 
desperately need innovation.  Innovation is the only way forward for 
amateur radio as I see it, anything that gets in the way of innovation is 
just one more nail in the coffin.  Since the packet radio experience I have 
tended to move on quickly when the Standards and the Band Planners get into 
the act.  I hope there is room in LF for more innovation and not more 
regimentation.

<BR>Hi Mal.
<BR>
<BR>As most of this new communication technology is being invented as we go along, there are a lot of personal views about what is a QSO and what is not.
<BR>To apply the traditional values of CW contacts to QRSS, DFCW, MSK Low data rate PSK etc is difficult, perhaps even inappropriate.
<BR>When 136 was allocated, the Transatlantic Challenge in memory of the late Peter Bobek was created by The RSGB (UK) &nbsp;DARC (Germany) &nbsp;and Amrad (USA).
<BR>A long debate on QSO exchanges continued throughout the intervening period but eventually applications were made &nbsp;and accepted for some aspects of "The challenge". &nbsp;The details of the QSO claims were considered by representatives of the three organisations and their decision to accept or reject a particular claim now forms the basis of &nbsp;DX records on the LF bands.
<BR>
<BR>I believe Dave G3YXM has all the 'firsts' between countries available on his web site.
<BR>You may be able to locate details of one way distance records from G3XDV's site.
<BR>I don't think there are records for cross band contacts where the contact does not represent some other form of &nbsp;record.
<BR>
<BR>I recall that the 73k two way record is from Peter G3LDO to GI &nbsp;using standard CW.
<BR>Also from memory, 73k QSOs have been made from G GW GD GU. &nbsp;Not sure about GM. &nbsp;GJ has yet to be activated on 73 or 136.

Dear LF Group,

Got G4JNT's PSK signal sequence again, quite straightforward once I had 
figured out it was 30 bits long. The spectrogram method is definitely 
easier than the oscilloscope phase comparison since you don't have to watch 
it constantly. The phase transitions are quite clear so long as the signal 
is strong enough compared to the streaks caused by QRN - I used Spectrum 
Lab with a resolution of about 0.04Hz (ie what I would use for QRSS30 
reception). With this, the signal appears as a steady line with a series of 
"beads" on it corresponding to the phase transitions - think of a strong 
QRSS signal, then fill in the spaces between dots with a carrier and you 
get the idea. Wider resolution(ie shorter dot lengths) shows the 
transitions more sharply if the signal is strong enough, but higher 
resolution blurs the transitions too much.The display lags behind the 
actual phase transitions by about 10 or 15s - I suppose it takes this long 
for the FFT data to accumulate.

I also investigated the "south coast mystery signal" - I got a carrier on 
136646.7Hz, drifting perhaps 0.1Hz low overnight. The bearing obtained with 
a loop was roughly 55/235 degrees - which on my map is a line through my 
QTH passing through Lowestoft to the NE, and Dorchester to the SW. The 
signal level did not change by more than a couple of dB between night and 
morning, so probably not a DX signal.

For Heaven's sake there's enough regulation and self-appointed policemen in 
this world without burdening ourselves with even more! By all means let's 
have a RECOMMENDED bandplan but to start moaning when somebody occupies the 
"wrong" slot  for an hour or two in an otherwise empty band is a bit 
rich.  Like the guy in the "Fast Show" who's sitting completely alone in an 
empty football stadium and when somebody else comes in and sits down a few 
rows away tells him "Can't sit there, mate, it's taken".

Hi Andy,
Yes I should have realised that since it was 30 bits long, the start would be at the 15 min points, not at odd 7.5 minute points. However I saw your transmission start at about 18.53 (or was it 17.53) so perhaps you were a half-cycle out?? I didn't keep a record so I can't check.

I used Jim's method No. 1, using Argo and looking for the beads on the line. There is a small problem with timing however, since the FFT introduces a delay. This appeared to be of the order of 1 bit, which I thought I had allowed for, but perhaps it was 2 bits or approx 0 bits, hence my record slipping 1 bit. Of course if you don't start at the correct zero, the probability of inversion depends on the ratio of 1's to 0's in the sequence.

Anyway great fun. It is interesting that there are alternative simple ways of decoding modulations for which one does not have the standard equipment. This sounds like a new fun area.

Hi Johan,
I logged a carrier at 135.0 in January 2001. There was some sort of modulation but it was very weak.
Trying each of my two loop antennas (one E-W and one N-S) I found it to be stronger in the East West direction.
I wondered whether it was perhaps an IMP of MSF and HBG.

Hi LF-ers....

	I'm very often in northern Slovakia about 10km from Polish border,
so I have an interest for the LF activity from SP. I just received an E-mail
from HQ PZK (Polish Radioamateur Association). 136kHz is still not alowed in
Poland, but the request has been send to the Polish PTT and it's still in
process. I'm interesting to step up the LF activity in eastern Europe. As I
know, only few stations are active (YO2IS and HA6PC). 136kHz is alowed in
some countries (Croatia, Ukraine, Russia, Estonia) but still no activities.
In that reason I agree with Dave G3YXM "...Let's make Sunday, "CW actrivity
day", people listen then and if they hear nothing they won't bother to get
on the band.....". But to increase the activity in that part of Europe, you
must have a good CW signal around whole Europe. I'm in the central Europe,
but it's the corner of the LF activities. Most of the stations are from
Germany and UK and the majority of all my worked stations are more than
700km faraway. If you put the station in the air from UK, you may work a lot
of stations in range about 300km in a few days. But let's try here, I have
only 3 LF stations in around 250km ! I have some friends who are often on
136kHz and listening for the stations spoted in the DX-cluster. On the
average top band antenna they have a possibility to hear only a few stations
with a very good signal. I was a very active station on 160m and I know that
working DX stations with low power (100W and less) on top band is waste of
time. The same count here. The only way, how to increase the activity on the
band and bring some more hams between us, is the way of increasing the power
and growing our antennas.

Oh yes, forgot to say it was 30 bits long this time :-(  Transmitted from
1800z through to 0745z

The sequence I sent was  010100010110101001010101011101
Which is not what you received, but :

Inverting this sequence gives :
    101011101001010110101010100010.
Then slipping it by 14 bits (denoted here by the decimal point) and with
spaces added every 5 for clarity as you do :

01101 01010 10001 0.1010 11101 00101  

Which is spot on !

Considering I "Forgot" to mention the longer sequence, you presumably
synchronised to a (now non valid) 7.5 minute interval, getting the wrong
phase and sequence starting point.

An absolute classic demonstration of the necessity for precise timing and
coding information needed for fully coherent transmission !

How did you copy this - spectrum spread at transitions, or by absolute phase
indication ?

>From Dave G3YMC

Bandplans are an attempt to all users of a band to operate in harmony without causing
each other interference.  I would hope you would see these comments in that light!
For instance, on the hf bands it is difficult to have a CW QSO underneath an SSB one
(although some SSB ops seem quite happy to chat on totally oblivious to the CW QSO
beneath them (happens all the time on Top Band..).  Hence the historic division of
the bands into CW and SSB segments.  Although in the bandplans CW is allowed anywhere
in the band (to allow dual mode QSOs), in practice all CW activity is confined to the
CW only parts.  The original CW segments have narrowed over the years to accomodate
the incoming digital modes.  Incidently the announcement of a data beacon on 1843
(admittedly low power) raised consternation in Top Band qrp ops - 'why do they always
choose the QRP frequencies?'.

136 is of course an unusual case, primarily because of its narrow band.  Rightly or
wrongly therefore it has been decided that a hard and fast bandplan is not to be
made.  However the requirement to make it available to all users and (narrowband)
modes remains, and it is on that basis that it has been drawn up and submitted.

The biggest problem the CW users face on 136 is receiver bandwidth.  Many of us, and
certainly the casual listener we are trying to encourage to get interested in the
band, will have a 350Hz (or even wider) CW filter with not particularly sharp skirts.
Some operators have narrower CW filters and/or dsp filtering in their receivers - but
probably none of them have anything better than 50Hz with square edges!

With a simple split, CW in the lower section and other modes in the upper section,
this is not a problem - though clearly more bandwidth is required to fit the same
number of CW stations than their narrowband counterparts.  In general that split
works well, and with the Ropex around 136.55 has led to the current CW usage area.
However with typical receive filters the presence of strong QRSS stations at 135.922
ish limits the usable bandwidth, and if CFH is on on 137.0 there is a relatively
small segment in between that can be used.  I am prepared to accept the need to use
the lower segment for QRSS, but would be disappointed if activity moved any higher -
in fact when SXV is off (as it seems to be most of the time at present, but that may
change) there would be a case of moving back down.

I would suggest also that the bandplan data mode segment (137.4-137.6 as it was in
the original bandplan) is virtually unused.  Surely that could be put into use
(although presumably not for transatlantic - but there again CFH is not on much these
days). With most of these new modes requiring less than 1Hz of bandwidth (even the
seven dot measle stuff) there is plenty of room there.

Activity is perhaps not as low as some would suggest.  Among stations heard yesterday
(a weekday) included F6BWO, DF3FDO, OH1TN - Reino called CQ several times, failed to
hear me calling (understandable!) then went away. Last year he would have had a
pileup.  Also heard F6BWO on QRSS on 137.1.....

Hi

Tonight I found a strong signal around 135.0 kHz which I have never
noticed before. It has a strange "random flutter" sound as if it was
"soft PSK". There is a lot of Luxembourg effect on the signal, even
more than on the (much stronger) DCF39 carrier.

The strongest "ghost" modulation comes from Radio Sweden 1179
which makes me believe that the mystery signal is coming from
south or southwest (flying through Radio Swedens "modulator cloud")...

Does anyone know the origin of this signal?

G'day Mal,

I must admit you DO have a unique sense of humour !!!   Either that or the
virus program I run now has cleared the BIG KEV virus off my machine.   Up
until just recently any machine generated mode was referred to in all YOUR
posts as "lazy man's CW".   Apparently now your posts are not being
corrupted by the BIG KEV virus and no longer contain those "lazy man's CW"
references.   Or have you become "lazy" too ?     Perhaps I should refer to
you as BIG LAZY KEV :-)

G'day All,

As far as the bandplan for the UK band.   I can't comment on the technical
aspects of it as I live in a relatively unpolluted environment down-under RF
wise (but don't worry - we are working our way to world standard in this
regard).    However, I think I can comment on the attitude displayed on this
reflector.    I was going to say something like "come on girls!!!", but you
know I wouldn't do that as it is PI and besides, it insults the maturity of
that half of the population.

As far as I am concerned our bunch of people who inhabit these areas of
interest are no different from the general population in spite of the notion
by some that we are "special".    As such we are subject to the whole range
of attitudes, behaviours and follies of the general population (at least
that is my excuse for my behaviour :-).     There are the pioneers, the
curious, the experimenters, the casual passerbys, the detractors, the
nay-sayers, the certificate hunters, the smiley-stamp hunters, the
rule-makers and the self-appointed guardians of right.    Also there are
those who have the temerity to be overcome by the sheer fun of what we do
and wander into the nice neat world of others from time to time.

This kind of "turf war" bickering is infantile in a world where we are
subjected to all kinds of challenges to our beloved hobby from commercial
interests for spectrum space.    All the energy spent beating each other
over the head about where the line is drawn in the dirt in the playground
will all be wasted when we wake up and find there is no longer a playground.

My observation of "gentleman's agreements" is they have often been hijacked
be a vocal minority to further their own interests.   Last time I checked CW
has a free run to virtually all the spectrum space on the conventional HF
bands, while other modes are cramped into smaller sections.  Unless things
have changed drastically, the same large-scale occupation of the UK band
exists for CW now.  To suggest that CW proponents have been "run off the
band" is ludicrous.   I think it is more a case of the shoe being on the
other foot.    Of course, one response to others showing interest in other
modes other than your own favourite mode is to pack up your marbles and go
off in a huff.     Or you can harass, harangue and privately abuse (by
email) those who would dare to experiment with other less familiar modes
(until, of course, you have decided that the time is right for you to adopt
that mode).    This is standard procedure for the managerial or born-to-rule
types.   Pour scorn on the efforts of others when they are trying to develop
new ideas and then when you are good and ready, adopt the those same efforts
as your own discovery, and then pour scorn again.

In the submissions to gain access to these LF bands over there, did the
weight of argument lie with engaging in a mode which (for good reason) has
existed for ages, or did it lie with expressing a desire to experiment and
develop new modes (at least at an amateur level) ?    To get my
authorisation I had to argue that I was engaging in new work.    Ironically,
when I was pressed (I was refused authorisation initially), I didn't cite
the UK example to support my argument that new work could still be done - I
cited the US LowFers and Europeans as examples of the experimentation that
could be done.   This apparently won the day for me.

Interestingly, there have been those who have tried to hold back the
pioneers going off into the experimental wilderness giving all sorts of
reasons why those experimenters should not venture outside the nice neat
world which these nay-sayers are comfortable with.  After those pioneers
have weathered the trials of establishing a pathway, those same detractors
come along and drive full-speed down the pathway cleared for them by the
pioneers and now detract the pioneering efforts by saying "I did that
journey in half the time you did"  Huh???

In any case, I think in an experimental arena in which we are supposed to
operate, the ultimate criteria is "natural selection".   If a mode is
superior as judged by the majority of users then that mode will prevail to
such time as something else shows promise (or, heaven forbid, just be fun).
At the same time those who want to experiment with other modes should be
allowed to do this with mature tolerance.

I am sure I have an article somewhere which details, from memory,  the work
way back in 1997 of Andy (G4JNT) and Peter (G3PLX) using 25mHz BW on 73kHz.
They had apparently pioneered narrowband stuff and hopefully will continue
to pioneer in the future despite opposition from some quarters.

(P.S. you would think with having had bushfires on three sides for nigh on
two weeks I would be wary of throwing petrol onto the reflector fire - but
then I didn't ever claim to be smart :-)

Mal et al.

I have "The Matrix" on my web-site, it doesn't cater for 1-ways and I've not
added many cross-bands but it's supposed to be a record of the first QSO
between each pair of countries. If anyone knows of any that aren't recorded,
please let me know.

It's at http://www.wireless.org.uk/matrix.htm

By the way, my remark about Andy's transmission was "tongue in cheek", I
think a problem we have on this reflector is that people are too ready to
take things literally and go off on a wobbler....
Too many colloquialisms?

A new campaign!
Let's make Sunday, "CW actrivity day", people listen then and if they hear
nothing they won't bother to get on the band.....

73.

<HTML><FONT FACE=arial,helvetica><FONT  SIZE=2>Hi Alberto and Group,
<BR>
<BR>Only 800 Hz for CW, and that in the worst part of the band (QRM, Luxembourg Effect, DCF39, DLF splatter // intermod) ? 
<BR>
<BR>No thanks...
<BR>
<BR>If we needed an 'official band plan' at all, we could move the "edge frequency" between slow modes and regular CW from 136.0 to 136.3 (or so), but keep the 136.5 as "center of activity" for CW. 
<BR>There are a couple of dinosaurs like myself, enjouying steam radio as well as the "modern modes". 
<BR>Especially on saturday and sunday mornings there is still a lot of ''TWO WAY traffic' going on in DL (and also low-power stations not looking for the big DX can enjoy it). Though most DL stations have worked each other dozens of times it is still nice to have a 'talking' QSO.
<BR>
<BR>But please don't let us start a fruitless discussion about pro &amp; contra CW on this reflector. 
<BR>There should be enough room for a peaceful co-existence of all modes. No need to have a band plan nailed to the wall as long (or on someone's forehead).
<BR>
<BR>Instead of saying "No xxx on this frequency", lets put it this way:
<BR> &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;"xxx encouraged at the lower edge of the band" ... 
<BR> &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;"yyy preferably on 136.x kHz " ...
<BR> &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;"center of CW activity on 136.6 +- 400Hz " (thinking of those with 270 Hz IF filters)
<BR> &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;"prolonged beaconing should be avoided between ... and ..." (including time of day)
<BR> &nbsp;etc.
<BR>Note: This list is incomplete and worth less than a Cent - we ran out of them anyway.
<BR>
<BR>
<BR>Now back to stirring the tea,
<BR> &nbsp;Kind regards,
<BR> &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Wolf DL4YHF.
<BR>
<BR> &nbsp;--... ...-- &nbsp;</FONT></HTML>

Hi All
Is there anyone out there keeping any records about TA activity and
countries worked by LF operators. For instance:
1. Is there a  record of any two way qso's on 136 or 73 khz.
2. Xband qso's 136/HF real time.
3. Those using beacons on 136 khz and getting reports, which really
amount to short wave listeners reports.
These are 3 distinct categories and totally different in procedures
required for award purposes etc.
As far as I am concerned a 2 way qso or xband qso should take place at
one session and in the shortest time possible and not over days, weeks
putting bits and pieces of the callsign together to
claim a qso.
Some seem to be implying that being heard on beacon mode on 73 and 136 k
hz is the same as
a two way on the band or xband qso. Not as far as I am concerned.

Spot on Jim -

It will be going again tonight - and this time I've put on a CW ident at 15
minute (+ the ID itself) intervals to keep some people happy :-)

Hi Dave,
For my money everyone is welcome on the band, whatever mode they wish to use. The more the merrier. As I see it the problem is not over-usage but under-usage, and that applies to me too.
If the existing informal "band-plan" has indeed been submitted for ratification, I am surprised and sorry to hear it. The plan was discussed at Windsor last October, and there were a number of suggestions for revising it, but nothing was agreed. Sorry, because in my opinion it gives precedence to normal speed CW. I have nothing against CW, but this band is unique being at the LF end of the spectrum and very narrow. It gives amateurs an opportunity to experiment with  new (for us) techniques to meet the challenge of this interesting band. It shouldn't just be a retreat for CW enthusiasts.
Before any plan is fixed in stone, it should be properly discussed and thought out. For example in some regions there are commercial stations operating in the band and amateurs will need to avoid these in order not to cause interference and just to have a chance of hearing weak signals. Even when a plan is agreed, it should nevertheless come up for revision from time to time, perhaps every 2 years or even more frequently in the light of experience or changes in band conditions (we haven't been through a full solar cycle yet) or for technical reasons. Everyone with an interest in using the band should be allowed and indeed encouraged to make an input to this process.
I would prefer to see a positive approach of encouraging experimentation and a great degree of flexibility in any plan adopted. Unless a user is actually causing interference to another, we really shouldn't object.
The most important thing is to get along with one another and make all users feel welcome.
LF is a GREAT band and THE place to be. 
73, John, G4CNN

Dear LF Group,

Some reasons for the current band-plan:

The "Transatlantic" windows at the top and bottom of the band are there for 
good reasons- the bottom of the band is better for the North American 
receiving stations because there is greater frequency separation from CFH 
when it is operating. It makes sense for the European stations to try and 
receive signals at the other end of the band because that way they can 
avoid their receivers being overloaded by their neighbors trying to 
transmit to the DX stations.

The CW part of the band seems to have been designated so because that's 
where the CW activity was - trying to change it now would be awkward for 
those who are stuck on one frequency, such as those using Ropex TXs, who 
would then all have to pull their rigs apart and buy new crystals.

I am opposed to the idea of a rigid band plan for a couple of reasons. 
First, the use of the band is affected by the operating frequencies and 
schedules of government and commercial stations, and other forms of QRM - 
if they decide to change, they are hardly likely to inform us, let alone 
consult us, so we must be flexible enough to change with them. This 
happened when SXV changed frequency last winter, and uproar resulted when 
the transatlantic beacon signals had to shift from 135.7 to 135.9. A 
similar problem occurs if your station is affected by local QRM, which 
makes operation in parts of the band impossible for you. Second, many of 
the modes in use are of an experimental nature with there own peculiar 
requirements - I think it would be impossible to devise one band plan that 
accomodated every possible mode in such a way as to prevent mutual 
interference between incompatible modes. With the current band plan for 
example, where would SMT-Hell, or 7FSK, or the low-speed SSB transmissions 
that have been tried fit in? These modes are not data or CW.

Listening on the air, it is obvious that the band-plan infringements that 
have occurred generate much more noise on the LF reflector than they do on 
the band - At any time, it is rare to find the band close to being full up, 
and I think most people would welcome more signals of any type. A band plan 
makes operation easier in some ways because you can find the type of signal 
you want where you are expecting it - imagine trying to search the whole 
band for a 60s QRSS signal. In amateur radio, nobody exclusively owns a 
particular frequency, and it would be antisocial to "occupy" a frequency 
like the commercial stations do, transmitting idle signals for days and 
weeks on end, whether it complies with the band plan or not. But if someone 
wants to use part of the band for an unusual purpose for a while, and it 
isn't causing huge problems to everyone else, why shouldn't they? I think 
it just requires a bit of give and take on everybody's part.

Cheers, Jim Moritz

Hi Jim,
I have a carrier which I have logged on 136.655 that has been there all the time since I started to listen to the band. I have queried it in the past and it seems that not everyone hears it.
This may well be the same signal as Laurie hears on 136.647, I shall have to check the frequency more carefully. 136.5 is allocated to FYA36, St. Assise, France.
73, John, G4CNN

Rik,
   you touched the key issue... not only on the 136kHz band, but everywhere else
any aspect of the ham activity faces the problems generated by the hiatus between
the experimenters and the communicators... look e.g. at the diatribe generated
by the experimental use of MFSK at 14.080 MHz, the 'holy' frequency of the
RTTY DXers...

With respect, I do hope that such a band plan is for Region 1 ONLY, and 
will not be even considered, thought off, dreamt of, for other Regions.

Hello all,

I don't believe that I am wrong when I state that 136kHz is a band where
all kind of things are in fast evolution. New modes are developed and
tested, we learn about trans-atlantic and trans-pacific propagation etc...
New modes create the need for new bandspace, so I doubt that it is a good
thing to have a bandplan 'carved in stone'.
We must have some kind of agreement to allow a peacefull co-existance
between the 'experimenters' and 'QSOers'. But this agreement (or bandplan
if you prefer) should be subject to revision when needed and this will be
most likely more than once every 3 years at IARU R1 conferences. A 136kHz
bandplan that is a burden to experimentation is not a good bandplan.

Fortunately the RSGB proposal to the upcoming IARU Region 1 Conference
starts with :
"No rigid band plan is proposed, but amateurs are asked to work within the
following conventions, giving long-distance communication and
experimentation priority"

I am happy to notice that the RSGB HF committee has wise men who understand
that specifice nature of the 136kHz ham band (only 2.1kHz in an extreme
high noise part of the spectrum) makes it more an experimenter band than a
communicator band.

Who's using high power, I'm certainly not !  3-4 Watts of RF to a 7m high
Tee gives about 0dBm ERP
Or -30dBW, or 1mW, in other money.

Oh dear, dear, dear.
As it happens, the suggested bandplan (at
http://www.g3wkl.freeserve.co.uk/lf/136kHz.html) has now been submitted to IARU
region 1 for ratification.  There are aspects in it which many of us are not in total
agreement with, but it is has now been submitted so should be followed whereever
reasonable.  G4JNT has now explained his reasons for doing tests within the normal cw
portion, clearly indicating you can never find a compromise which will meet all
requirements. It might have helped if Andy had explained this beforehand, that it was
a special case justifying an out of bandplan operation.  I am afraid comments like
'So as far as we're concerned bandplans can go to the wall when this sort of
requirement rears its head !' are not helpful.  Neither does changing the bandplan if
it doesn't meet your requirements!

What has moved on since then is that those who use digital modes think they are now
the only band users, and anybody else like me who has no interest in those modes
whatsoever is not welcome, either on the band or on this reflector.  The band is for
all amateurs whatever their interests.  The bandplan was devised with that in mind.
Unfortunately many we used to have on the band have already lost interest in it
because of this attitude.  I can see the time very soon when the digital boys have
got their way and turned the whole band over to those modes - I may well have already
vacated the band myself by the time that happens.

Well done, you even spotted the c__k up, that period at 2250 is rather
embarassing - I hit the master switch on the test equipment rack intending
to leave just the radio equippment bench powered.  Trouble is, the GPS
receiver was powered as a piece of test equipment so it went off. I realised
almost immediately and started again at the next 7.5 minute interval
carrying on as if nothing had happened.  The RF never wavered so phase
coherence was maintained.

Haven't got a record of the sequence here, I'll have to check when I get
home, its recorded in the logbook (!!???!!),  but what you got looks right
from memory - there was certainly a 6 / 9 ratio of 0s and 1s. I typed the
sequence in almost at random, in a hurry to start it on one of the 7.5
minute boundaries before 1800z without having to sit and tumb twiddle for
too long.

Your second method is how I was hoping a few listeners would manage to
receive this signal - hence the reason I kept the transistions to minute /
hour boundaries to make manual decoding easy.

Will be interesting to see if Bill managed to make anything out of
integrating several hours worth.  At least the 2250z glitch shouldn't harm
his carrier integration, just a frame of data. 

Suppose I really ought to add a CW ID to be legal !  Should have a spare PIC
beacon keyer lying around which I can programme to send a callsign at 24WPM
every 15 minutes in OOK - that shouldn't upset the PSK signalling , although
it will generate widespread QRM in the CW part of the band - oh, sorry, it
will be CW won't it so that's Ok :-)

Yes Jim I have a permanent carrier (Loran line ?) on 136.647 by my
measurment  which I call the south coast mystery signal ! since people
further inland dont seem to hear it. I once tried to DF it and belive it
originates from E.France,but I could be wrong. It makes a good calibration
marker since the freq. is very constant. 73s Laurie.

Dear Andy, LF Group,

I copied the G4JNT PSK beacon last night; assuming I have the start 
times/polarity correct the sequence was:

011 010 111 001 011

I found two methods of demodulating the signal using general-purpose 
equipment - the first is simply to produce a spectrogram, using parameters 
for 30s dots. The "key clicks" produced by the phase transitions are 
visible as a spreading of the trace. Setting Spectrum Lab to produce 30s 
time markers made it fairly easy to identify the sequence. I noticed a 
period around 2250 when there were no phase transitions for several 
minutes, but then the sequence returned to normal.

The second method was to look at the phase directly - to do this I fed the 
RX audio into one channel of a 'scope, and fed a stable audio frequency 
equal to the BFO offset into the other channel. The frequency error of the 
RX and locally generated tone was small enough so that the phase difference 
between the two traces only changed a fraction of a cycle in several 
minutes, so it was easy to see an abrupt phase change when it occurred. Due 
to QRM/QRN, I found that to make the beacon signal clearly visible on the 
scope, a very narrow bandwidth audio filter (<10Hz) was required; this was 
also implemented using Spectrum Lab. Even then, the apparent phase of the 
signal bounced around by some 10s of degrees due to noise, and noise spikes 
could cause a temporary phase inversion, so a lot of concentration was 
required to get the sequence. With a strong signal, the traces are quite 
stable, so you could use this method to detect an abrupt phase change, or 
measure frequency to millihertz resolution quite easily.

Although good fun, neither of these methods is really viable for DX 
reception, since they don't integrate the signal over the whole bit period, 
let alone over several sequences - a bit like decoding QRSS by ear. Andy's 
signal was about S3 at my QTH, but hard to actually hear due to a permanent 
S6 carrier I get on about 136.65kHz, a real nuisance for manual CW 
operation - does anyone else hear this?

Cheers, Jim Moritz

Just to stir a bit the water, what about the following :
<p><b>135.7&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; -&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; 136.0</b>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
Long distance (TA or TP), weak-signal modes (QRSS, DFCW,etc.), no CW allowed
<br><b>136.0&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; -&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; 137.0</b>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
All digital modes + QRSS + DFCW , both for QSOs and experimentations, no
CW
<br><b>137.0&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; -&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; 137.8</b>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
CW only
<p>I am sure many will not agree :-) but it is just to provoke discussions....

Hi all,

I had no intention of making a comment either, BUT as one who was
blasted out of the water on my first transmission I have not done too
much transmitting since.  Now it appears I am still doing the wrong
thing.  Life is difficult.  Last October my temporary authorisation
to transmit time lapsed and has not yet been renewed so now I may
not transmit.

73, Brian

Hi All,
<br />
Do we need to stick with this bandplan? When it was devised it reflected interests at that time among a rather small group.
<br />
Things have moved on since then.
<br />
Most activity is in the miniscule TA slot or at the very top of the band. So isn't it time to revisit this plan, to make a more sensible distribution, reflecting the interests of everyone?<br />
<br />
Any proposals?
<br />

Hi Mal,

TIP107 = PNP, package = TOP66, Vcb = 60V, Vce = 60V, Veb = 5V, Ic = 8A, Pt
= 80W, Ft = 4MHz, Hfe = >1000 @ 3A, EU eqivalent = BD651

Connections : if you look at the bottom (pins) with the mounting surface
down the base is left, collector in the middle and emittor right.

73, Rik  ON7YD

PS : I still don't get how to transmit G3KEV plus ZJ (or TAG) plus a report
within 1 hour at 60 sec/dot CW. I assume you agree that the exchange of
your callsign, at least the suffix of the other call and a report is the
'minimum minimorum' for a QSO.
Bur as said ... even if it were 2 or 3 hours : congrats on the achievement

73, Rik

who prompted these PSK transmissions,&nbsp;is developing a very 
simple&nbsp;cheap and cheerful way of locking a receiver to the GPS 1PPS pulse, 
and at the moment he can only listen on frequencies that are equal to ( N + 1 / 
M) Hz &nbsp; where N and M are integers.&nbsp; Using my DDS source driven 
from&nbsp;the 5MHz frequency standard, the only frequency in the entire band 
that meets this criteria is 5MHz * 7 / 256&nbsp; = 136718.75.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; 
Arbitrary frequencies could have a frequency error as high as 561uHz, which is 
far too high for these tests at 4E-9 error - we need long term (several hours) 
accuracies of just a few parts in 10^-10</SPAN></FONT></DIV>

parallel longer term solution I'm looking at for this signalling is a standard 
locked to GPS&nbsp;with a frequency that is more 'DDS

4.194304MHz oscillator to be locked which with a 32 bit DDS will give all 
frequencies at multiples of&nbsp; 1/1024 Hz exactly.&nbsp;&nbsp; A big 
difference between traditional frequency standards and the requirements for low 
speed signalling here, is that the short term phase noise is less 
important.&nbsp;&nbsp; Where each PSK symbol is 30 seconds long, then phase 
jitter every second gets integrated out.&nbsp;&nbsp; If such a standard were 
used for HF to UHF then this would result in an unacceptable frequency 
blip.&nbsp; Another option for better phase noise will be to lock a 4.096MHz 
oscillator to the 5MHz standard (using 8kHz reference).&nbsp; Tis is not so good 
on a DDS but will give exact 1 Hz values every 125Hz, and so quarter Hz values 
every 31.25Hz&nbsp; - so I'm sure a few frequencies can be found in the proper 
part of the band with these multiples.</SPAN></FONT></DIV>

I wasn't going to comment, but I will.  The current bandplan may be unofficial and a
gentleman's agreement (as surely all bandplans are) but it gives a bad impression if
a key operator on the band blatantly ignores this like Andy has. The excuse that it
was a convenient crystal divide frequency is pretty feeble.

I may have heard Andy's transmission on Saturday evening, but with no CW ident it was
impossible to tell.  I thought a suitable ident was a requirement of the licence.

Unfortunately activity on the band seems to be at an all time low.  I have called CQ
frequently over the past week with little success, apart from a QSO with G3YXM
(thanks Dave).  I suspect most of the stations which were once active have been
driven off to other bands - I see Mal has resorted to 60 seconds key down beacon
mode.  Things are getting pretty bad.

Hi John and all LF-ers...

	I saw the gram from John VE1ZJ. I'm sure that this is a signal from
me. I'm very happy, it's the first step for the crossband QSO. I'm still
working on the tubes PA, so please wait until I'll finish the project. I'm
sure, you will receive a "O" signal.

Best regards...

>From : Derek Atter, G3GRO,  6th Jan 2002

To users of MB7LF in the Surrey, Sussex, and Kent area, please note that as
from today, the experimental remote 136kHz receiver relay on 144.985.7 Mhz
to 144.987.8 Mhz will be temporarily off air for a few days due to work in
progress on a major shack re-layout at the Crawley Club which affects all
the antenna cables including those for MB7LF. We hope to be back on-air
before the weekend.

                                    73,  de  Derek, G3GRO

Change of plan -
Tonight's transmission is 15 bits long, starting on the hour, so it repeats
every 7.5 minutes with 30 second symbols.  Again the starting bit of the
sequence is a '0'.  Frequency 136718.75000 Hz

Sorry, its only the low power Tx.  Various probelms with configuration / EMC
stop me using the big jobbie for these tests - anyway, it wouldn't be fair
would it, jamming all that wide band CW traffic  :-(

The GPS locked 30s element PSK transmission on 136718.75 was going all last
night.  Bill de Carle VE2IQ got part of the sequence and could definitely make
out that there were two phase states, but unfortunately could not decode all
of it correctly.  The actual sequence sent  was 01010011 and he got part of
the sequence correctly after integrating results over several hours.

Part way to Transatlatic on 0.001 Watt ERP maybe ?

The transmission will be going again tonight from around 1800z, on the same
frequency of 7/256 * 5MHz = 136718.75 Hz  but with a different 8 bit sequence
of data; 30s signalling elements synchronised to the hour.  Any change to this
schedule will be posted here.

Good evening dear TA watchers,

right now (23:40) I can see
 
- 924.02 G4FTC (qrss)
- 923.83 DJ2LF (qrss 60s)
- 922.30 /.40 DF6NM (dfcw, now 100s+33s)
- 920.88 IK5ZPV (qrss),

all of us just fitting into Argo's 3.4 Hz width.

Rich OM2TW and Geri DK8KW will probably not be QRV tonight.

Good luck es have a nice sunday

Hi All,

I've just started an overnight QRSS test on 135.924kHz using 60 second dots.
Due to the anticipated demands upon my available time from other
activities - such as work - this will probably be the last test for some
while.

Reports  and screenshots would be appreciated once again.

May I thank all those who have provided reports on my transmissions over the
recent Christmas and New Year period.

Hi all , believe I saw Rich OM2TW last night thanks from freq info from
Markus.  Tonight will be looking with 60 sec dots .  I want to see if I
can identify DJ2LF and IK5ZPV. They were both off my screen last night.

OOPS Sorry, Typing error
The exact frequency is 136718.75 Hz for the low power BPSK test transmission
(not .25 as stated earlier)
The frequency is exactly equal to   7 / 256 * 5 MHz

I will be radiating a low power (about 4 watts RF,   1mW ERP)  test
transmission this evening (Saturday) using 30s BPSK with the transitions
locked to GPS plus a few microseconds.   The data sequence is 8 bits long and
synchronised to the hour,  repeating every 4 minutes.

The exact frequency is 136718.25Hz  (to do with DDS resolution using a 5MHz
clock).  Accuracy is within 3*10^-10 which means that during the 4 minute
sequence interval, absolute phase should drift by no more than 4 degrees.

No prize, but kudos, to the first person to work out the data sequence.   To
resolve the phase ambiguity problem, assume the first bit sent at the
reference point is a '0'

Greetings,  Happy New Year to all,

I went looking for info on this some time ago in order to
bring some stability into my life and an old Eddystone.

This place is a treasure trove of nearly everything that's
been published on it:

        Cheers,

                Steve        W3EEE

Mal.

It's PNP silicon, VCEmax=100V, ICmax=8A, Diss 80W, Ft=4MHz, HFe 1000 (must
be a darlington) equiv to BD652 says Towers.
If you place the device heat-transferring surface downward, with the legs
facing you it goes BCE from left to right.

Cheers.

>From Dave G3YMC

Andy will find an updated version of the huff and puff, using a CD4013 counter, in
Technical Topics in the April 1978 issue.  This is a reprint of the version which
appeared in Ham Radio December 1977.  As Andy mentions, most of the articles on the
earlier version appeared in 1973-4 - I have those issues (I have every one since 1969
and quite a few before) but they are not immediately accessible.

Dear John 'ZJ,

on 2./3. of January, there were activities on
- 924.01 G4FTC (qrss)
- 923.78 DJ2LF (qrss 60s)
- 922.30 /.40 DF6NM (dfcw)
- 922.13 OM2TW (qrss 120s)
- 921.53 /.63 G3AQC (dfcw)
- 921.1 +-.02 IK5ZPV (qrss).

Last night (3./4.), I saw only Rich and myself transmitting, but I haven't 
looked during the early morning hours.

Tonight, up to now 
- 923.84 DJ2LF (since 21:46)
- 922.05 OM2TW
- 921.49 /.59 G3AQC (since 22:37)
- abt 920.98 IK5ZPV (since 21:40)
have shown up.

There is a Loran line on 135923.70, also visible in John 'TAG's and strong in 
Dexter's shots. On the captures you sent to me, the frequency ruler looked 
0.4 Hz high.

73 and best wishes
Markus, DF6NM

Mine is at:

...and it's up and running right now. My local sunset is at 2130 UTC.

Dex's is at:

I'm not sure if he will be running his gear tonight.

hi all , about last night.  Condx were not very good.   I am not sure of
my freq.  Last night I saw 0n 922.3 what looked like "d e s " on qrss
around 0100. To check freq, later I saw DF6NM on same freq.  Markus was
not as strong as other nights but He was "M" copy and I saw his signals
until 0744Z.
     At time when Markus was strongest , 05to 06 Z, there was another
station. It was 0.5Hz higher than Markus and could have been DFCW with
smaller offset than Markus.  If anyone wants, I have pictures.
     Tonight I will be looking for OM2TW with 120 sec dots 135.922.0  If
anyone sees Rich I would appreciate a   word on his freq
    73 de John VE1ZJ

Hello LF-Gang,

I lost a couple of e-mails. Can someone help me out: what are the URLs
where Dex and John post their screenshots?

Thanks

Hi all,
four days ago I observed an emission on 135,67kHz vy instable, little fading, 
mode FSK in high speed but only idle.it was hours ZOA and vy strong. the spurii 
made it impossible listening for AT signs. I hope it will never come back agn.
see attached pic.

regards
Uwe/dj8wx

Lieber Holger,
   bin erfreut, von Deiner Aktivität zu lesen. Aber zunächst alles Gute für
das neue (Euro-)-Jahr, Gesundheit und Reisen ohne Angst vor Terrorismus.
   Deine QRG 923.3 scheint aus meiner Sicht in Ordnung zu sein. Wir werden
dann nahe Nachbarn, bin auf 923.73 wenn der Generator kalt ist, d.h.
Zimmertemperatur. Durch die Eigenerwärmung wandert er leicht nach oben, zum
Glück weg von der Loran-Linie auf 923.7. Dann viel Erfolg. Wie bist Du denn
ausgerüstet? Meine Bildchen waren sowohl bei VE1ZJ als auch bei W1TAG bisher
nur zu ahnen.
73   Walter DJ2LF

Dear LF Group,

I seem to be the only station so far that has had some success with both 
WOLF BPSK and 7FSK modes over transatlantic paths, so here is my comparison:

W!TAG was able to get perfect copy on my WOLF signal, so BPSK definitely 
does work for DX communication; however, he remains the only transatlantic 
station to do so, in spite of weeks of trying. In part this can be put down 
to the varagies of propagation, but also many people struggled to get WOLF 
to work well. The reason for this seems to be mainly the requirement for 
accurate frequency and timing calibration (of the order of 1ppm), not a 
trivial problem to overcome since the equipment most people are using was 
not really designed with this in mind. Operation of the software and 
hardware is not intuitive like QRSS/spectrogram programs.Transmitting using 
this mode is relatively difficult too; although very simple QRP 
transmitters are possible, envelope shaping is required for higher powers 
to avoid causing unacceptable QRM, making high power transmitters 
significantly more complex. In the context of the European 136k band, the 
bandwidth of some 10s of Hz required by Wolf would be a problem if the mode 
was being used by several stations simultaneously. None of these are 
fundamental limitations - ingenious frequency calibration schemes have been 
devised, some success has been had with modified "variable phase" keying to 
control sidebands without amplitude modulation, it would be possible to use 
narrower bandwidths for BPSK too. However, BPSK does require significant 
time and effort on the technical side to get working.

I would not claim any great technical superiority of 7FSK over other modes, 
but from a pragmatic viewpoint it has several good points. It can be 
generated by a simple extension of existing DFCW techniques, and received 
using the spectrogram software that people are familiar with. The frequency 
accuracy required is much more relaxed (of the order of 10ppm on receive), 
and timing accuracy isn't really an issue. The bandwidth, although greater 
than that of QRSS, is small enough. In its short history, readable 7FSK has 
already been received by a number of transatlantic stations, so it 
definitely works too. The big advantage is of course in the increased speed 
compared to QRSS.

As for the SNR vs. bandwidth considerations, other subscribers to this 
reflector have more expertise than me - but I would observe the following: 
Both QRSS and 7FSK are made up of dots, so the probability of any one dot 
being corrupted by noise is the same. However, 7FSK transmits on 1 of 7 
possible frequencies, while QRSS uses only one, so it is 7 times more 
likely that a corrupted dot will appear in a 7FSK signal in a given period 
of time. However, fewer dots are required by 7FSK to send the same number 
of characters by a factor of about 5.5, so the relative probability of a 
character being corrupted in 7FSK compared to QRSS would be 7/5.5, ie. 1.3 
times as likely; not very different - about 1dB. I realise this is only 
approximately true, not considering redundancy and so on, and would apply 
only when the ratio of corrupted dots to uncorrupted is small, but you 
would need this anyway for a QSO, and the tests over Christmas and before 
show that these conditions do exist fairly often.

I think long-distance LF communications can be done with either of these 
modes, and probably many others too. Theoretically,  I think the more 
sophisticated modes like BPSK will win out, but will always have limited 
popularity due to the more elaborate technical requirements. A mode like 
7FSK may not ultimately be as good, but it is quick and easy to get going 
and operate. It is interesting that in the US Lowfer community this winter 
has seen an explosion in the number of QRSS beacons and reception reports, 
while last winter  WOLF BPSK was a la mode. The distances being covered 
don't seem to be much different, but more people are getting results. Where 
there is an unpredictable element involved, like propagation, the chances 
of the success of any particular mode are going  to be tied up with how 
many people have the capability and the inclination to use it - a 
technically mediocre mode in use by 100 stations will probably get more 
positive results than an excellent one being used by only two stations. 
This is no excuse for complacency of  course, but factors like ease of 
implementation, compatibility, inertia and "does it match the curtains?" 
all comes in to how successful something is - just look at the history of 
the personal computer!

Cheers, Jim Moritz

Hi John...

	I'm still transmiting during the night on 135.922 QRSS120. I'll try
to drive more power with another power supply. During the daytime I'll be on
137.700 QRSS3 looking for some Europeans. Look for me...have a nice weekend.


Best regards....

Hi all late tonight,  Last night saw JTC,AQC,es 6NM. Also what looked
like amateur station 0.3Hz below JTC .  it might be another Loran Line.
Was not that good a night
    Will start now to look 0028Z

If you have the Technical Topics compendiums a number of circuits appear in

Hi  Steve,      Was very interested in your  comments  about the 
fire storms..  We  are lucky in the sense that we get a lot of rain
rather than drying winds.  However we are sorry to hear about people 
loosing their homes particularly  at Christmas time.  A time when we 
lookforward to relaxing a bit  and  taking it easy..  And useually  one 
looses a lot of items that are irreplaceable  and  mean a lot to one
in the way of particularly special to ones own existence.
        You may  or may not know  that Kevin,   ZL4MD,   was fire chief at 
Cromwell  for quite  afew  years.  Is retired  from there now.  Nearly lost
his eye
sight some years ago when a big circuit breaker  blew uo\p.

       Wish you all the best for  2002  and hopefully  we may hear you on the
Thursday night net.  But then you may have  a similar problem to myself. 
a 50  x  200  foot  section and surrounded  at close range by other  houses.

 Would also appreciate advice of your Virus checker.    Am tied up with the
Dunedin
SeniorNer, a group  of world wide affiliations helping those over  55  who
want to learn
about computers. We are preparing a list of  Anti virus progs for putting
into the club
newletter. You seem to be very happy with your choice and does not seem to
be excessively expensive.

A request for anyone out there who was receiving RadCom or any other
magazine,  before I joined in 1975......

I'm looking for the reference to the Huff-Puff stabilisation scheme, and in
particular the improved Mark 2 modified version that, seem to recall,
employed a counter rather than a simple flip-flop.  It almost certainly
appeared in Radio Communication in the 1970s, and from what I remember of
talk in my local radio club in those days, was probably around 1973 - 74.  

Have a feeling I'm in the process of 're-inventing' it for a high stability
GPS locked source for low data rate signalling, and don't want to claim the
credit for an idea that appeared over a quarter of a centuary ago!

With a PIC instead of all the control logic, it should certainly be a lot
easier and simpler than the original concept!

In normal BPSK, the data is coded so that a phase of 0 degrees represents a
'0' and 180 degrees a '1'.  Since we have no idea of the absolute starting
phase, it is obvious that an ambiguity can arise as it is impossible to
determine which phase state is which, and the sequence is then just as
easily decoded with the 1s and 0s transposed.

There are several ways to solve this problem.  One is to transmit a known
sequence at the start of, and/or periodically during,  the transmission.  If
this known sequence is decoded upside down then we know that all subsequent
data has to be inverted.  Another allied method would be to define symbols
at specific times, such as the UTC second, as being in a known state.  This
latter technique obviously relys on having accurate time information at both
ends of the link.

Alternatively, the data can be encoded in such a way that polarity is
irrelevent.  Instead of encoding a '0' or '1' as the absolute phase value,
encode the signal such that no change of phase from one symbol period to the
next represents a '0' and a change of phase represents a '1'.  Now, a long
string of '0's would appear as a continuous carrier and a long string of
'1's as a carrier whose phase swapped 180 degrees every period.   This is
Differential Binary Phase Shift Keying (DBPSK).

DBPSK is used in most HF and VHF modulations as it is the simplest way to
resolve the phase ambiguity problem.  PSK31 uses DBPSK, so does Coherent,
and in each of these modes the idle sequence, when no data is being sent,
consists of a long chain of '1's so the transmitted sequence repeatedly
inverts every symbol, giving a demodulator the maximum likelyhood of locking
correctly to the signal timing.

It does have the following disadvantage however:  If a symbol is corrupted
by noise or interference, then not only is that data bit decoded
incorrectly, but so is the next symbol, as its phase shift will be
interpreted incorrectly wrt. the corrupted one.  Therefore the Bit Error
Rate (BER) for DPSK is double that of absolute BPSK.  It is not, as is often
taken to be the case, equivalent to a 3dB degradation in S/N.  
Depending on the point on the S/N ratio versus BER curve at which the
demodulator is sitting, a doubling of the BER can correspond to either a
minute change of a fraction of a dB in S/N if S/N is poor, or a hugh change
of many dB if S/N is large

For our LF, very low bandwidth signalling needs however, we do not have to
go to differential modes and as our S/N will always be 'poor' by definition,
the gain of not having to employ differential coding can be considerable.
With symbols of over 1 second in length, it is quite straightforward to,
just as an example, define the bit sent on the UTC minute or hour as being a
zero.  Relying on absolute time also has the advantage of not having to rely
on lock up sequences and procedures - always the weak point in coherent
signalling systems.   There is no problem these days in getting time to a
few 10s of milliseconds accuracy, and a low cost GPS module will give better
than 1us accuracy.  With such easily available, highly accurate timing
information other measurements of the LF path become possible, such as
flight time from one station to the other which would allow some of the
anomalies of the long paths to be investigated.

Hello LF-group,

I intend to join in the transatlantic club tonight. Any objections that I
use 

        135923.3 kHz plus 0.1 Hz DFCW 

or is this frequency in use?

Thanks, best 73 and a very happy New Year to all of you!

Interesting that we appear to be coming full-circle to what LowFERs in the 
States had been playing with for over a decade.  Yet, what exactly are we 
looking at in the way of practical BPSK?  Low data rates and BPSK are a very 
demanding combination, after all.  Bit rates slower than about 1/second never

Hi all late tonight,  Last night saw JTC,AQC,es 6NM. Also what looked
like amateur station 0.3Hz below JTC .  it might be another Loran Line.
Was not that good a night
    Will start now to look 0028Z

Happy New Year,

I believe that Markus, DF6NM has made some salient points:

I have not been closely following the 7FSK discussion due to other calls on
my time, but I have been generally sceptical that anything with more than
binary coding is the way to go for amateur LF DX two-way contacts.  So
rather belatedly, I have some remarks on basic issues, stimulated by the
comments from Markus:

My understanding is that binary phase shift keying (BPSK) has the lowest
detection threshold of any type of modulation and that ANY higher order
scheme (intended to give an increase in spectral "efficiency" in terms of
transmitted bits/second/Hz) accordingly has a penalty of less energy per bit
for a given transmitter power, so the claim of "efficiency" has an overhead
in needing higher RF signal to noise ratio at the receiver.  A "binary"
scheme is always a winner in terms of noise performance and of the various
binary schemes, "phase shift" keying is the best performer.  Differential
BPSK (DBPSK) may have practical benefits that justify a small degradation in
ultimate noise performance.  For a given demodulated bit error ratio (and
including using a visual display for operator assisted decoding), a higher
RF signal to noise ratio is needed by any higher order modulation scheme.
Amateurs have an eirp cap on radiated power, so there is a limit on how much
the DX receiving situation can be improved in terms of "solving the problem
by applying more transmitter power".   For a two-way contact there is also
the question of completing the QSO within the time of a propagation opening.
Thus a deduction can be made as to the slowest bit rate needed to achieve
the desired results.  There may as well be pre-set options for bit rate, to
facilitate local testing and for QSOs within a few hundred kilometres.

The message content needs to be succinct so there needs to be good use made
of prior agreed codes.  Good coding is also part of the overall scheme.

So in summary, I believe that extending LF DX achievements will be best
served by developing a BPSK or DBPSK scheme.

73, Bob ZL2CA

Could you send some further details on this ?    (specifically the 'occupy'

 Dear Jim,
thanks for the info, the frequency referency here is a crystal oscillator with
a home made temperature stabilization driving a DDS,  so the drift you
reported my be an interference in the temperature controll circuit during
transmission.

I'm very discouraged by results, it seems very difficult to cross the Atlantic
from my QTH.

I will try again this night with short period of more 3 dB of power.

'73 ,Valerio

I won't be running screen captures tonight -- I'll be out most of the
evening, and there will be a storm to my east that should make the band
pretty noisy. Am planning to resume the web-posted captures on Friday.

Dear Valerio,

Between about 2000 and 2300, your QRG cycled up and down between about 
135.921 +0.09Hz and +0.13Hz - I reckon my measurement error will be within 
0.01Hz. The drift seemed to be synchronised with the symbols being 
transmitted, so perhaps a thermal effect?

Cheers, Jim Moritz

Lots of QRN again here in NC tonight.  But whoever just sent a 5 min
signal on .92163 was stronger than the noise.  I'll post 30 min updates
until about 0500 hrs.

<HTML><FONT FACE=arial,helvetica><FONT  SIZE=2>Hi Steve,
<BR>
<BR>&gt;&gt; If you start off with a 650Hz tone sampled at 11025Hz with a record size of 16384 you have a record length of 1.49 seconds (BW = 0.67Hz). &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Averaging or skipping samples could be done down to maybe a 2205Hz sample rate, but that would only get a record length of about 7.5Hz (BW = 0.134Hz). &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The only way I can see that 5.3mHz can be achieved is if you mix down the input signal to close to zero frequency (say 20Hz) and low-pass filter to eliminate aliasing. &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;This would make the 16384 record length long enough for mHz range resolutions. &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Is this how it is done ?</FONT><FONT  COLOR="#000000" SIZE=3 FAMILY="SANSSERIF" FACE="Arial" LANG="2">
<BR>&lt;&lt;&lt;</FONT><FONT  COLOR="#000000" SIZE=2 FAMILY="SANSSERIF" FACE="Arial" LANG="2">
<BR>
<BR>Basically, yes. 
<BR>In fact the audio signal sampled at 11025 Hz is first multiplied with a two-phase "Local Oscillator" signal, with the frequency set for the center of the display (with complex numbers, you may call the output I / Q samples).
<BR>Then, the sample rate is reduced ("decimated") in a chain of "decimation stages" (don't know if thats the correct term). Each decimation stage is not only a "sample rate divider" but real a low pass filter (for anti-aliasing, not just an average filter). 
<BR>Assume each stage divides the sample rate by two:
<BR>The first decimation stages has 11025 samples/second "in"
<BR>and produces 5512.5 samples/second.
<BR>The second 5512.5 samples/second "in" and puts 2756 samples/second out,
<BR>etc etc etc.
<BR>After a 7 of such stages there are 11025/(2^7) = 11025/128 = 86.13 samples per second (still I/Q samples). This 86.13 Hz sample rate goes into a 16k FFT (for example), giving a frequency resolution of 5.3mHz.
<BR>You could go much higher in FFT resolution but it takes an utterly long time to fill the FFT buffer.
<BR>Example: To put 16384 samples from the decimated signal (86.13 Hz) in a buffer, it takes 190 seconds. 
<BR>I think ARGO and SPECTRAN work similar, with the difference that you don't have to think about these "details" there.. but Spectrum Lab was never intended to be user friendly HI.
<BR>
<BR>Hope this answers your question a bit.
<BR>
<BR>Good luck and happy experimenting !

<BR>Alan - in fact I have been playing with a "phase sensitive waterfall display" which Markus DF6NM suggested over half a year ago. Indeed, the result of the FFT calculation carries the amplitude and phase, but it's not easy to interpret the phase values and putting subsequent FFT results together (all I got up to now is a very colorfull display which looks like "moiré effect" on a TV screen. But with a bit of inspiration, there will be more soon... :-)

Argo, in the sake of maximum resolution, uses rigidly one screen pixel for
each FFT bin. That's why with QRSS60 the span shown is only 3.5 Hz.
I could resample spatially the waterfall to have more Hz displayed, but
I am not sure it is a good idea, resolution-wise...

Dear Rik, dear LF group,

Implicitly, you raise a very interesting point here: What if we used 1024 
freqs to encode 10 bits, would the SNR per symbol still be the same? If so, 
could we use infinitely less energy per bit, by spending (exponentially) more 
bandwidth?

Spending BW to improve SNR is often done, classical examples are wideband FM 
and digital audio. But all these techniques have in common a detection 
threshold. If the input SNR is below that minimum, demodulation breaks down 
completely. The question for our weak-signal work is not so much how to 
decrease the error rate of a strong signal, but rather whether we can 
actually lower the threshold bit-energy below the noise energy (kT, equal to 
noise-power per bandwidth).

For m-ary FSK, the task of the receiver is simply to select the channel 
having the highest energy (or the highest in-phase voltage for coherent 
detection). The problem is that with more channels, the statistical 
probability of noise in one of the many unwanted channels being stronger than 
the signal channel becomes higher. To keep the error rate constant, you have 
to spend a little more TX power. For large m, this logarithmic loss in 
SNR-efficiency per symbol finally eats up the logarithmic increase of the 
number of bits per symbol.

Just have a look at one of the 7FSK screenshots with marginal signal: The 
choice of selecting the "right one in a crowd of seven" is more difficult 
than for a crowd of two.

Regards
de Markus, DF6NM

Hi Paul
 I have been wondering about that for some time and was hoping a souncard
version of the Loran program that Peter G3PLX was experimenting with might
appear. I would dearly like to confirm my thoughts about the path across.

If you look at some of my early CFH plots (Sept- Dec 2000) you can see the
strength rise to a peak just as the shadow at ground level reaches a point
about 1000kms east the Nova Scotia coast. (This is just less that an hour
before sunset, and would tie in with the recent of signal acquisition
reports)  By doing a little crude geometry I reckong that at this time the
shadow at 100kms altitude has just reached mid-Atlantic. The signal level
decays again then and rises again (to a much higher level) as the shadow at
ground level reaches the Nova Scotia coast. At that time I think the shadow
at 100kms altitude is at about 3/4 of the path. That is just the point where
we need a 'reflection' for two hop propagation. The reasoning is very crude
but could be confirmed by watching the phase change as a function of
increasing path delay. What I am not sure of is the level of frequency
stability that would be needed at the TX end. I suppose slow drift could be
'calibrated out', maybe by monitoring a station locally, inside ground wave
distance.

I think all the information is there in the samples taken for waterfall
displays, but is not used (??) . I think you might have to talk nicely to
Wolf...... it would fit well with his logging facility in SpectrumLab, that
Brian CT1DRP uses for his plots of DCF39 (and other slots). In fact it is
such a comprehensive piece of software it may already be there!! There are
many parts of Wolf's program that I have not had time to investigate.

G'day Wolf,

I have been trying to understand the information you gave as below:-

>
>Using these settings to receive:
> Sample rate = 11025 Hz
> FFT type = complex, center frequency = 650 Hz (preferred "AF IF")
> FFT decimation = 128
> FFT input size   = 16384
> FFT resolution   = 5.3 milliHertz
> Waterfall scroll rate = 30 seconds
>

I am interested to learn how you get the 5.3mHz resolution.   From my
understanding the resolution of an FFT of 16384 samples at sample rate
11025Hz would be - 11025/16384 = 0.673Hz.    By decimating in time 128
records (and averaging) I thought there is no gain in resolution, but you
get an increase in S/N of sqrt(128) in each of these 0.673Hz bins.    How
are the 5.3mHz bins generated ?

Dear Valerio,

saw your sig on 921.09 at 19:35, just slightly drifting up to 921.12 at 
19:45. David `FTC seems vy stable, his freq reads 924.01 here.

Best of luck !!

Dear LF Group,

Have returned to work this morning after the Christmas break, and have now 
waded through most of the 400 or so e-mails that had accumulated. I'm sure 
I have accidentally deleted a few, so if you don't get the response you 
expected, please e-mail me again.

Thanks for the reports on the 7FSK "measles" mode - well, you have to admit 
it livened things up a bit. For the record, I transmitted the following 
signals:

25/12, 2230-0712, 135.923k, 30s dots, 0.2Hz tone spacing, 1W ERP
27/12, 0000-0640, 135.923k, 30s dots, 0.2Hz tone spacing, 1W ERP
27/12, 2230-0656, 135.923k, 60s dots, 0.1Hz tone spacing, 0.4W ERP
29/12, 0000-0715, 135.924k, 30s dots, 0.2Hz tone spacing, 1W ERP
29/12, 2245-0715, 135.925k, 30s dots, 0.2Hz tone spacing, 1W ERP
30/12, 2110-0730, 135.923k, 30s dots, 0.2Hz tone spacing, 1W ERP

The message read CQ_M0BMU_M0BMU repeated 4 times an hour (or twice when 
sending 60s dots), together with 2 x 6wpm CW ID's per hour

Not being in touch by E-mail over the period meant that I just selected 
frequencies which were not in use before I started; sorry if it was a 
frequency you were planning to use.

It was nice to see lots of activity on the transatlantic front. The 
attached jpeg from last night shows, from the top, G4FTC (60s QRSS), 
DJ2LF(60s QRSS), G3YXM(60s QRSS), DF6NM(300s DFCW), IK5ZPV(30s QRSS) and 
G3AQC(60s DFCW) - I also copied OM2TW and G3KEV at various times.

The 7FSK generator here is based on a 13MHz TCXO module I found in the junk 
box. It has a pin to connect to an external frequency trimming pot. 
Applying a variable voltage to this pin gives a reasonably linear frequency 
shift up to about +/- 20ppm. Providing the temperature does not change 
rapidly, stability of a few parts in 10^8 is obtained. The tuning voltage 
is supplied by a simple D/A converter consisting of a string of resistors 
and an analogue switch IC, followed by an adjustable gain amplifier to set 
the frequency shift. I settled on 0.2Hz spacing for 30s dots, and 0.1Hz for 
60s because when viewed on a spectrogram, these spacings gave an easily 
identified separation between the tones, allowing for some drift in TX and 
RX. The 3 bit digital input at the moment comes from a suitably programmed 
EPROM, clocked through it's addresses with a long cascade of digital 
dividers. To get to 136kHz, the output is divided down to 1MHz and fed into 
the external reference input of my Racal 9084 synthesiser. Some gates allow 
the 7FSK output to be overdriven by a CW identification signal obtained via 
ON7YD's QRS software. I'm hoping someone will write a 7FSK program soon, so 
I don't have to blow a new EPROM every time I want to send a different message!

It seems several people are missing the point of 7FSK - the idea at this 
stage of development is not to improve the signal to noise ratio of the 
received signal, but simply to increase the speed of signalling that can be 
achieved with given signal strengths, as Rik has pointed out. From this 
point of view, it seems to work quite well, with the 7FSK covering the same 
distances under the same conditions, yet being a lot quicker. Trying to 
have even a minimalist QSO with 30 or 60s QRSS takes hours, and is rendered 
very difficult by fading. The majority of stations that have so far been 
detected across the Atlantic have had to resort to these long dot lengths 
in order to be detected at all, so anything that can speed things up has to 
be taken seriously. For beacon signals, the speed of signalling is not very 
important, since it is only necessary to transmit enough information to 
identify the beacon, rather than to have any actual exchange of 
information. So for beacons, QRSS is quite satisfactory, while for QSOs it 
isn't.

I think those who say that 7FSK is an inefficient use of bandwidth have not 
really thought it through. Compared to QRSS, or aural CW for that matter, 
7FSK uses 7 tone frequencies, whilst CW uses only 1. Therefore it needs 7 
times the bandwidth when using the same dot length. For random 
alpha-numeric characters, I reckon morse code averages about 11 dot lengths 
per character, whilst 7FSK uses 2 dot lengths for all characters - so for 
the same dot length, 7FSK is 5.5 times quicker on average. So the relative 
efficiencies of this mode in spectrum usage, measured in 
characters/second/Hz or however you want to express it is about 5.5/7, or 
about 0.8 times that of CW - not very different, really. If you wanted to 
send the same messages using CW and 7FSK in the same length of time, you 
would have to use CW dots 5.5 times shorter than the 7FSK dots, so the 
bandwidth would be 5.5/7 = 0.8 times that of the 7FSK signal. So from the 
viewpoint of spectrum usage, it is swings and roundabouts - QRSS does use 
less bandwidth than 7FSK, but only when it is sending information more slowly.

I am slightly amazed that 1.4Hz is considered by some as an excessive use 
of bandwidth. Over 1000 stations could operate on 136k simultaneously in 
this mode with the same parameters I have been using, even allowing for a 
generous guard band between them - many times more than could use, say, SSB 
on 80m. Bear  in mind that most people are happily using normal hand CW on 
136kHz - if you look at this on a spectrogram, you will see it takes up 
50Hz or more, but I have never heard the band anywhere close to being full 
up - most of last year people complained about there being too few signals 
around.

Most of the problem with frequencies seems to be due to the 3 1/2 Hz 
bandwidth that Argo has when used in 60s dot mode, which is a bit 
restrictive. I have been using Spectrum Lab, which allows you to set any 
bandwidth you like within the limits of the FFT. I usually use 10 - 20Hz - 
with the window expanded to fill the screen, this gives plenty of 
resolution. It also allows you to pan the frequency or alter any of the 
other parameters "on the fly", immediately showing the effect on the 
previous few minutes' signals, a very useful feature when a number of 
different modes are in use. I was actually transmitting 30s dots most of 
the time, so the displays people were getting were in many cases not 
optimum - with Argo in 60s mode the signal looks very wide, and causes the 
dots to overlap (I was not transmitting 2 frequencies at a time as someone 
suggested!), which makes the signal harder to copy and gives them the 
"measles" appearance. All the same, the improvement in speed over the 
neighboring QRSS sigs is obvious.

At the moment, I'm trying to catch up on a bit of sleep, but if anyone 
would like to try experiments with this or other modes, please let me know.

Happy new Year to all,

Cheers, Jim Moritz,

I'm trasmitting qrss 90 sec in low power on 135.921.
Is someone in Europe is receiving, please tell me about accuracy of  
frequency calibration and stability.

Used 2/1 ratio, callsign sent once and copied perfectly for each qso at dot
length as specified above.
No repeats etc were required. This was the case for all 3 xband qso's. Qsl was
immediate on 7025 khz from the 3 stations concerned, VE1ZJ , W1TAG, and W4DEX.
I hope you are not puzzled any more.
I realize some transatlantic qso's have taken hours and days to complete but not
in my case!!
I have several more reports and screen shots from VE1ZZ, W1JHJ,W3EEE and W3NF.
Best distance is 6277.5 kms

Thanks Rik for the info.
It took the minimun time, only one callsign was necessary at each dot length
using 2:1 ratio because the boys across the Atlantic had perfect coyp on my
signal every night so far.
The above times quoted are CORRECT.
I did not have to repeat anything twice etc therefore the qso times were Minimum
as stated.
I hope you now have the facts correct

Hello Mike,

Maybe omnidirectional means that the antenna radiates equally in all
directions of the horizontal circle while nondirectional would mean that it
radiates equally in really all directions (up-down / left-right). I believe
the only nondirectional antenna is a (fictive) isotropic radiator.

Few days ago I was asked what the difference was between a unipole and a
monopole.
As far as I know these are 2 names for the same thing, but maybe I am wrong ?

Hello Mal,

very glad to see that your successes in QRSS, congrats for the crosband QSOs.
I am just a bit puzzled by the QSO times given by you as just transmitting
your call (G3KEV) at 1 min/dot would take 58 minutes (50 minutes if you use
a 2/1 dash to dot ratio).
Maybe since January 1st there is a 3/1 conversion rate between the UK
minute and the Euro minute ;-)

But the main thing is that you made the QSO, regardless wether it took 1, 2
ot 3 hours. Once again my congrats to you nad John.

Valerio, John, Laurie etc.

I have just checked my calibration against Rugby and I reckon I can be
pretty accurately on 9225
Very impressed that the signal stayed in 'till 0900, I pulled the plug about
0910. Sunrise is about 0730 here.

This morning around 0700 on saw a very slow DF6NM, (PART).  plus FTC and
YXM.  YXM faded out around 0900

There has been quite a lot of comment recently about 7FSK and the bandwidth
it takes up.  The only transmissions (other than my initial tests) were by
Jim who seemed to be using quite a wide spacing relative to the dot length.
This is a classic spread spectrum transmission where bandwidth is quite a
lot wider than necessary either to assist in demodulation or to mitigate
certain propagation effects.

If we are to use this mode with visual 'decoding' using Argo then we really
need to do some tests with weak signals and different spacings to see what
is optimum.  A good point to start would be at a tone spacing equal to twice
to three times the reciprocal of the symbol interval.  Thus for 30 second
symbols, one letter per minute, for Argo's 30s dot mode, try a tone spacing
of 0.07 to 0.1Hz, giving a signal bandwidth of 0.4 or 0.6Hz.   It may be
possible to go narrower, but reading will be more difficult as the signal
will now be in adjacent frequency bins.
.....................................

On a different matter, I have been taking part in some 137kHz test
transmissions using very low power to G3PLX who is using coherent reception
and GPS locked signalling.  We are still in the early days yet, and Peter
has been sidetracked into some domestic work for now, but initial results
look promising.   I have been radiating about 1 Watt of RF which, with my
antenna, equates to about 200uW ERP and Peter got perfect copy at 400km
distance.  The signal format was 30 second BPSK, but the results would have
stood much faster than this.   His next stage is to integrate over longer
periods and for me to transmit with even lower power.

The key to these experiments is very accurate signal timing and frequencies,
we require stabilities and accuracies of just a few parts in 10^-10 in order
for the signal to stay within a few degrees of phase over tthe entire
transmitting period.  In fact a DDS source makes life difficult due to my
only having steps of 5MHz / 2^32 !!  Symbol timings are also locked to GPS.
Peter uses a very novel and very simple way of locking a receiver to GPS - I
shan't explain how here, but will leave him to cover it in a subsequent
write up; it is not finalised yet, but is very straightforward and needs
little more hardware than a GPS receiver module with a 1 PPS output.  I have
extremally high frequency stability anyway, but we  need to look at a
simpler route to getting a low cost locked standard from GPS before this
technique can be used with a wider audience.   For LF signalling, phase
noise or slight jitter on the transmission during a symbol interval is not a
problem, meaning that a GPS locked frequency standard using the 1 PPS output
to adjust a crystal oscillator would be adequatem - so generating ANY
frequency that is a multiple of 1 Hz becomes possible.   

My main interest in high stability sources is rather different as I am,
these days, more into high frequencies where the 1 Hz jitter is an absolute
taboo when multiplied up to GHz - it would appear as audible chirp up there.
However, having been nudged in this direction by Peter I did spend time
during a long walk yesterday thinking of sources for LF :
Start with a very simple VCXO using any cheap crystal,assume its frequency
could be up to +/- 30ppm out.  The only requirement on actual frequency is
that it ends up at a multiple of 1Hz.   Continuously clock this into a
binary counter and exactly every second (derived from the GPS receiver)
measure the counter value.  If the counter is long enough it will be able to
resolve all frequency ambiguities (30 ppm at 5 MHz would normally give 150
potential lock points if a simple latch were used).   Use the error between
this count and what is should be, to generate a correction signal to control
the VCXO.  An 8 bit counter would be good enough and a PIC interrupted by
the GPS pulse reading this counter, plus a handfull of Rs and Cs should do
it.  We end up with a strange mixture of PLL and frequency locked loop, but
one that is simple and optimised to long duration signalling on LF.   This
is probably a re-invention of the wheel but I haven't seen exactly these
requirements before; a very high medium to long term stability but short
term / phase noise not too important.

I think this is basically what Brooks Shera does in his GPS frequency
standard mentioned on this reflector recently, but his design requires a
good oscillator source to give a very high performance standard across the
spectrum.  We do not need this kind of short term performance where
signalling is going to use symbol lengths of many seconds.  This techniqe
may also be allied to the old Huff and Puff stabilisation technique, but
extended by the N stage counter rather than a sigle flip-flop to remove
frequency lock point ambiguity.  The original Huff and Puff system was a
little bit before my time in the early 1970's :-)

 I am using 135,921.4/5 DFCW
Perhaps if others could give their frequency here Valerio could chose a
slot.There were Canadian Loran lines on:-
135,919.055
135,927.487
135,935.919
Taken from list produced by John Sexton Sept. 2000
Best to avoid these frequencies.

Hello Mal and John,

Assuming a QRSS QSO takes 2 hours you can have the same QSO in abt. 38
minutes using DFCW and in abt 22 minutes using 7FSK, leaving the SNR
unchanged.
Or the other way arround : if you want to make a 'standard QSO' within 2
hours you have to limit the dotlength to abt. 14 seconds, while you could
use abt. 43 seconds dotlength in DFCW and abt. 77 seconds dotlength in 7FSK.
This means that DFCW is abt. 5dB superior to QRSS while 7FSK is abt. 7.5dB
superior to QRSS and abt. 2.5dB superior to DFCW.
So John is right when he states that you win more by changing from QRSS to
DFCW than changing from DFCW to 7FSK (5dB vs. 2.5dB), but I would't ignore
this last 2.5dB.
To give an idea : 2.5dB is increasing the height of your antenna by 33% or
increasing the TX power by 78%.
Regarding bandwidth : at slow speeds (1 min. dotlength) even 7FSK fits well
within 1Hz.

I believe there is a way to work arround this. What I did in the QRS
software was :
1. 'occupy' the LPT port (printer) via the API
2. drive the printer port via the PORT commands (Delphi)
3. don't forget to 'release' the LPT port (via API) at the end
That way I avoided that the operating system was interfering, I made it
believe that the printer is printing all the time.

Doh!

That link doesn't find the original page..
 go to:  http://securityresponse.symantec.com/ 

And click on "Hoaxes" in the reference area near the bottom of the page, You
will find SULFNBK.EXE warning in the alphabetical list.

BTW.

The antenna is now back up, first toothbrush failure I've had!
This long duration QRSS certainly smokes out (literally) any arcing on the
antenna.
I was using 45 sec dot QRSS as a compromise between 30 and 60 and 2:1
dash/dot ratio, all of which conspired to make my signal unreadable...

<HTML><FONT FACE=arial,helvetica><FONT  SIZE=2>Hi Markus and group,
<BR>
<BR>The limit is not yet exceeded, DFCW with 25mHz "shift" is clearly visible.
<BR>Using these settings to receive:
<BR> &nbsp;Sample rate = 11025 Hz 
<BR> &nbsp;FFT type = complex, center frequency = 650 Hz (preferred "AF IF")
<BR> &nbsp;FFT decimation = 128
<BR> &nbsp;FFT input size &nbsp;&nbsp;= 16384
<BR> &nbsp;FFT resolution &nbsp;&nbsp;= 5.3 milliHertz
<BR> &nbsp;Waterfall scroll rate = 30 seconds
<BR> &nbsp;Visible freq range set to 651.8 ... 652.2 Hz (can be scrolled over 40Hz whith the above settings).
<BR>I will use a larger FILE buffer soon, to scoll the waterfall back &amp; forth over a couple of hours. This will make periodic screen capturing unnecessary.
<BR>The only limit the stability of my TS850 which doesn't have an OCXO. The 850 was turned on shortly before the spectrogram started.
<BR>On the spectrum plot, DF6NM's peak is **only** 40dB over the visual noise &nbsp;(for an RX bandwidth of 0.005 Hz) due to local QRM. The signal was just audible with a short piece of untuned wire !

There is no chance of a signal making it over the noise here in North
Carolina tonight.  The very strong loran lines aren't even visible.  My
guess is the noise here originates in the building weather system in the
Gulf of Mexico.  Check this site for lightning data.  Looks like a good
site but it says it will be restricted to government use after 2 Jan.

It's very noisy here tonight, and conditions seem to have slipped as well.
If the screen captures don't show some life by 0030, I'm going to pull the
setup. Need to make some bridge measurements, and the receiver's necessary
for that.

Hi all there seems to be someone under G4FTC tonight. They started slightly
higher in frequency and have drifted through and are now on the lf side. I
wont quote frequencies as I have not calibrated tonight.

Re Marco's comments:

MSF is a simple absolute frequency standard accurate to 2 in 10-12.  Add 
about 20 dB amplification to a 60 kHz ferrite rod antenna  and there'll be 
plenty of carrier to see on a scope (in the UK anyway).  Make up a divider 
to get your 5 or 10 MHz standard down to 100 or 10 khz and use it to lock 
the timebase.  (Locking direct on MSF doesn't work on most scopes because 
MSF pulses every second and the scope loses phase in the breaks).  Then 
fiddle your osc until it stops drifting.  Takes a long time if you want to 
get into the 1 in 10-10 class (about the best any xtal osc will do 
short-term even if double-ovened) because one cycle drift at 60 kHz takes 
about three hours at this stability level.

HBG on 75 kHz could also be used directly with the right dividers but  DCF 
on 77.5 would be a bit more complicated. You could have a go at using Loran 
on 100 kHz if you're into this sort of thing.

That'll give you an excellent absolute frequency standard but what about 
drift in your Tx (and Rx) oscs?  To take full advantage of 60-sec dots and 
Argo/Spectran you need to drift less than 0.02 Hz in 180 secs dash length. 
That's 1 in 10-10.  You need a double-ovened proportional-control reference 
osc to do this, even short-term. The usual "high-stability" ham options are 
only good to  1 in 10-7.

Stewart - careful with those Piezo/HCD/HP oscs; they have different 
pinouts. Also, the Piezo ones are fast warmup and need about 0.5A at 24v to 
get going while HCD/HP need only 0.2A.  The HCD are somewhat sensitive to 
attitude (g effects) although OK if kept in one position and are trickier 
to adjust than Piezo/HP.

Marco - it's the rubidiums that get poisoned quicker, average life about 5 
years.  The cell in my Efratom unit is on its last legs after 7 years. 
Caesiums get noisy after 10 years.  90% of the GPS sats that have died did 
so because all four Rb/Cs went down after 10 years or so.  Old Rb/Cs units 
are worth buying only for the xtal oscs in them.

Walter G3JKV.

Hi all,

tonight I'd like to try SpecLab's limits in generating extremely slow DFCW: 
300 s dashes + 100 s spaces, frequency shift 25 mHz. I'll be on 135922.275 
/.300 Hz (if it's free) starting at 21:45, one callsign will take abt 2.5 
hours. I wonder if there is any benefit of using symbol durations longer than 
the typical fading timescale.

Historical note, I think you will find that upper sideband above 9MHz and lover
below it came about from generating an upper sideband signal at 9MHz and then
either mixing up or down from there, I imagine it was convenient to limit the
tuning range of your oscillator and pick off the sum or difference as
appropriate.

Hi all last night was interesting.  Thanks to Jim for moving out of
narrow window. Some observations
    1 G4FTC, except for some minor fade outs, was in continuously from
1930 Z til 0905Z. That is 45 minutes before my sunset til 30 or 40
minutes after his sunset.
    2Also seen were G3KEV, G3AQC, and DF6NM All "O" copy at various
times
    3 There appears to be a station 0.1Hz above DF6NM but can't pull him
out.
    4 There seems to be another station 0.3 Hz below G4FTC . I think it
might be DJ2LF .  I have a Loran line .02 Hz below this stn please QSY
up 50 milliHz or down 200 MilliHz.

     G3AQC is experimenting with close spaced 3fsk
      73 all es hny VE1ZJ

see if we are making it and the progress throughout the night. I also
check the web post of Dex/W4DEX both very useful.
I will be active tonight again from about 2130 - 2400 utc looking for
xband qso's TX/RX on 7025 khz as well as the 136 khz band. Will be
looking especially for those USA stations that sent me reports and
screen shots  last night but did not call for xband, please call
tonight.
Worked so far VE1ZJ, W1TAG and W4DEX. The most distant from me so far is
6277.5km
(3923miles) according to the Buckmaster info, not yet checked with GPS.
Thanks to all engaged in this activity for the excitement.

We may have some of these at CARC.

Well, the web-posted screen captures worked fine last night. In the 135.921
to .924 window, G3AQC, G3KEV and G4FTC were clearly identified. DF6NM was
also there, identifiable by frequency, but not by copy.  Had a 40 meter
cross-band qso with G3KEV.

The final shot has a complete ID from G4FTC at 0315, and can be seen at the
top of the screen:
http://webpages.charter.net/w1tag/cap-1.jpg

Can do the web posting again tonight if there is interest.

Hi all,
Dexter W4DEX asked about frequency standards on the LOWFER
reflector. I presume that the subject may be of interest also there
in times of very narrow band communications.

The question was:
 >Is there anyone on this list who is familiar with Brooks Shera's
 >GPS-based Frequency Standard project which was published in QST, July
 >98?  Info can also be found at:
 >
 >http://www.rt66.com/~shera/

The Brooks Shera's project is very good, but not inexpensive.
For best results you need a Motorola UT+ GPS receiver. I bought it
new three years ago for about $200 including the antenna.
The PCB and components cost about $100, then you need a
stable OCXO. I use a surplus unit by Oscilloquartz, coming from
an Omega receiver. The best choice for cost vs. quality is an HP
10811A, contained in many instruments, of wich the more common
is the 5328A-H99 universal counter, available probably around $150.
Sometimes it contains the 10544A oscillator; if possible look for the
10811A, it has better stability, less noise and less power drain.

If you have to buy all the parts you spend about $450. The project is
not very complex, but you have to understand operation and tweek
with time constants and receiver settings, then monitor it for some
week to verify performance. From the point of view of a standard
frequency aficionado (as I am...) it is VERY interesting. For general
purpose use it is quite complex to manage; but when it works you
forget it.

Other possibilities are:
1) the HP 10811A alone. An excellent oscillator, and you may expect
some parts in 10^-8 per year from a good unit operated continuously.
But keep a spare unit... I've seen some of them "die" of quartz
inactivity. And you must have access to a primary standard for
tuning and checking it.
2) a Rubidium standard. A cheap one is worth $200-250 (check Ebay).
You get probably some parts in 10^10/year from an Efratom M100,
but again you need a way of checking it (need a Cesium!)
3) a Cesium standard. Now, it's a primary one!. Absolutely not
suggested to the average amateur, since the initial cost may be low
(some $2000 or $3000), but the tube has short life and it is VEEERY
expensive.
4) an HP Z3801A. An embedded GPS standard frequency receiver like
the Brooks Shera project, but simpler to use and already boxed!
You add power, a PC and a GPS antenna, and get 10 MHz.
Performance very close to the Brooks Shera project, cost about $450
on Ebay, varying availability.  I have one working at the QRL, and I am
happy about it. I use it to check the long term stability of our Cs and Rb,
and it is a good performer.

If you need more info, let me know.

Hello John.
Thanks for the screen shots on your web site. Did appreciate the call on
7025 khz to work my first xband with the USA. 136 khz/7025 khz. You had
a nice signal on 7mhz despite the Aurora effect.
Happy New Year and many thanks again for all the effort from you during
2001 and hope we do it again many times during 2002

Great idea John to monitor progress and thanks for all the effort that you and
the boys over in the USA and Canada put into this project during 2001 and hope it
continues this year.
