The ERP stated here seems very high in respect of my limited experience with
LF power levels & antenna efficiency limitations. If these levels are
correct I will be interested to know how they are being achieved & what
restrictions are imposed by the licencing authorities in that area.

May I also take this opportunity to wish everyone on LF seasons greetings &
a Happy New year 2003.

Hi Johan,

I read the DFCW signs on 7022,386/7022,388kHz 8dB above noise with QSB.

what kind of award did you say I get if solving the "secret codeword"?

Ive just joined so apologies if this isnt working!

>From Laurence aka Flo AL1V (G4DMA) BP41xd 10Kms SW Anchorage Alaska.

Hi Im now QRV on Rx on this band using Argo 131 (excellent, thanks)a large 
800ft Inv L at 90ft max and extensive earth radial system. Loran C is a 
problem in Alaska and Anchorage and the recent ZL6QH mark freq on 789 is 
just in the wrong spot here by 0.1Hz!...and I was a day late getting the 
station on the air

If anyone from anywhere would like to see if their signal can be heard using 
QRSS from South Central Alaska please give me an email to 
hellozerohellozero@hotmail.com.

Sunrise is around 1913Z, sunset 0013Z. - sunlight is increasing at around 2 
mins per day...

The 138.8Khz Eu beacon signal is audible to S9+ in the mornings before 2030Z 
and from 2300Z. (It is very variable on a minute to min basis)

Long wave stations are even audible thru my winter dayliight hours with 
France Inter on 162 and others on 153 sometimes HI quality. BBC R4 is never 
strong and is very close to the local US NDB's

If we take this as a good indicator of band conditions,Id be interested to 
know how strong this beacon is being received on the Eastern states at the 
time that Eu stations are audible...there may be a chance..we are about 
6000Kms from the UK.

The path to Europe tends to cross a large cross section of the Au Oval but 
whether this is going to make a large difference to prop unless under 
extreme proton events I dont know.

As a general comment, it seems that pre-dawn enhancement happens on many LF
DX paths.  It will take some time to go through all results, and check
respective sunrise and sunset times with propagation conditions.

Mine beacon test on Dec 27 nobody has accepted ;-(( (except for
Europe)
I am not sure that Thomas really has accepted my beacon's signal
(http://www.kn4lf.com/RU6LA_M.jpg). There are at whom comments on it
ARGO's screen capture?
Thanks by all who tried to accept mine beacon test

All the best, and a happy and peaceful 2003 !!

Thanks for these tests. I monitored morning and evening and watched the
sunrise/sunset times on http://dx.qsl.net/propagation/greyline.html. Several
possibles but nothing I could call proof of reception.

It would be useful to know how the US/Canadian reception related to sunrise
and sunset times at either end.

Hi Ray,

A few more on your UNIDs:

226: IW Laurel, Queens, NY 40-43N/73-41W  25W
268: RT  GRIMM/New York, NY 40-35N/73-39W

Probables for DCL and NBY:
237: DYL Doylestown, PA (WRLB2874) 40-20N/75-07W  25W
257.51: TBY Waterbury/Oxford, CT (WRLB2094) 41-31N/73-08W 25W

Not all lists have the 2-letter US IDs, considered outer markers rather than NDBs.

Good hunting--
Mike W2AG

Hi Bob and team,
I have monitored your frequency from 1600-1730 for three evenings,using an
HP3586b and a large directional loop antenna, but nothing seen. Perhaps
there is no value in a negative report but at least you should know that
there  are people over here looking.
73 Laurie.

Even though I'm now living in Ontario, the call is still VE2IQ, not VE3IQ.
Maybe I should sign VE2IQ/3 ?

Hi all,

The ZL6QH beacon transmission went without missing a beat on each of the
last three nights.  A DDS exciter was used for the last two nights, and it
maintained very good timing of a Q ID starting on the hour, within a few
seconds.

Reception reports are still being worked through.  Best DX for the three
nights appears to be with Bill VE3IQ.  Generally good results were reported
from North America.  No confirmed reports from Europe.

73, Bob ZL2CA

I just finished conducting a ground wave band scan of CW air navigation
beacons from west central Florida and logged 47. I logged a few new UNID's
plus some old UNID's as they were not listed in the database on the website
database of AirNav.com. Any help ID'ing these stations would be appreciated.

Les,

Sending anything to majordomo@blacksheep.org will produce the instructions
shown below. This information will have been sent to you when you first
subscribed.

Note that I have nothing to do with the sysop. I'm just a customer, like
you.

=================


This help message is being sent to you from the Majordomo mailing list
management system at Majordomo@blacksheep.org.

This is version 1.94.4 of Majordomo.

If you're familiar with mail servers, an advanced user's summary of
Majordomo's commands appears at the end of this message.

Majordomo is an automated system which allows users to subscribe
and unsubscribe to mailing lists, and to retrieve files from list
archives.

You can interact with the Majordomo software by sending it commands
in the body of mail messages addressed to "Majordomo@blacksheep.org".
Please do not put your commands on the subject line; Majordomo does
not process commands in the subject line.

You may put multiple Majordomo commands in the same mail message.
Put each command on a line by itself.

If you use a "signature block" at the end of your mail, Majordomo may
mistakenly believe each line of your message is a command; you will
then receive spurious error messages.  To keep this from happening,
either put a line starting with a hyphen ("-") before your signature,
or put a line with just the word

end

on it in the same place.  This will stop the Majordomo software from
processing your signature as bad commands.

Here are some of the things you can do using Majordomo:

I. FINDING OUT WHICH LISTS ARE ON THIS SYSTEM

To get a list of publicly-available mailing lists on this system, put the
following line in the body of your mail message to Majordomo@blacksheep.org:

lists

Each line will contain the name of a mailing list and a brief description
of the list.

To get more information about a particular list, use the "info" command,
supplying the name of the list.  For example, if the name of the list
about which you wish information is "demo-list", you would put the line

info demo-list

in the body of the mail message.

II. SUBSCRIBING TO A LIST

Once you've determined that you wish to subscribe to one or more lists on
this system, you can send commands to Majordomo to have it add you to the
list, so you can begin receiving mailings.

To receive list mail at the address from which you're sending your mail,
simply say "subscribe" followed by the list's name:

subscribe demo-list

If for some reason you wish to have the mailings go to a different address
(a friend's address, a specific other system on which you have an account,
or an address which is more correct than the one that automatically appears
in the "From:" header on the mail you send), you would add that address to
the command.  For instance, if you're sending a request from your work
account, but wish to receive "demo-list" mail at your personal account
(for which we will use "jqpublic@my-isp.com" as an example), you'd put
the line

subscribe demo-list jqpublic@my-isp.com

in the mail message body.

Based on configuration decisions made by the list owners, you may be added
to the mailing list automatically.  You may also receive notification
that an authorization key is required for subscription.  Another message
will be sent to the address to be subscribed (which may or may not be the
same as yours) containing the key, and directing the user to send a
command found in that message back to Majordomo@blacksheep.org.  (This can
be
a bit of extra hassle, but it helps keep you from being swamped in extra
email by someone who forged requests from your address.)  You may also
get a message that your subscription is being forwarded to the list owner
for approval; some lists have waiting lists, or policies about who may
subscribe.  If your request is forwarded for approval, the list owner
should contact you soon after your request.

Upon subscribing, you should receive an introductory message, containing
list policies and features.  Save this message for future reference; it
will also contain exact directions for unsubscribing.  If you lose the
intro mail and would like another copy of the policies, send this message
to Majordomo@blacksheep.org:

intro demo-list

(substituting, of course, the real name of your list for "demo-list").

III. UNSUBSCRIBING FROM MAILING LISTS

Your original intro message contains the exact command which should be
used to remove your address from the list.  However, in most cases, you
may simply send the command "unsubscribe" followed by the list name:

unsubscribe demo-list

(This command may fail if your provider has changed the way your
address is shown in your mail.)

To remove an address other than the one from which you're sending
the request, give that address in the command:

unsubscribe demo-list jqpublic@my-isp.com

In either of these cases, you can tell Majordomo@blacksheep.org to remove
the address in question from all lists on this server by using "*"
in place of the list name:

unsubscribe *
unsubscribe * jqpublic@my-isp.com

IV. FINDING THE LISTS TO WHICH AN ADDRESS IS SUBSCRIBED

To find the lists to which your address is subscribed, send this command
in the body of a mail message to Majordomo@blacksheep.org:

which

You can look for other addresses, or parts of an address, by specifying
the text for which Majordomo should search.  For instance, to find which
users at my-isp.com are subscribed to which lists, you might send the
command

which my-isp.com

Note that many list owners completely or fully disable the "which"
command, considering it a privacy violation.

V. FINDING OUT WHO'S SUBSCRIBED TO A LIST

To get a list of the addresses on a particular list, you may use the
"who" command, followed by the name of the list:

who demo-list

Note that many list owners allow only a list's subscribers to use the
"who" command, or disable it completely, believing it to be a privacy
violation.

VI. RETRIEVING FILES FROM A LIST'S ARCHIVES

Many list owners keep archives of files associated with a list.  These
may include:
- back issues of the list
- help files, user profiles, and other documents associated with the list
- daily, monthly, or yearly archives for the list

To find out if a list has any files associated with it, use the "index"
command:

index demo-list

If you see files in which you're interested, you may retrieve them by
using the "get" command and specifying the list name and archive filename.
For instance, to retrieve the files called "profile.form" (presumably a
form to fill out with your profile) and "demo-list.9611" (presumably the
messages posted to the list in November 1996), you would put the lines

get demo-list profile.form
get demo-list demo-list.9611

in your mail to Majordomo@blacksheep.org.

VII. GETTING MORE HELP

To contact a human site manager, send mail to
Majordomo-Owner@blacksheep.org.
To contact the owner of a specific list, send mail to that list's
approval address, which is formed by adding "-approval" to the user-name
portion of the list's address.  For instance, to contact the list owner
for demo-list@blacksheep.org, you would send mail to
demo-list-approval@blacksheep.org.

To get another copy of this help message, send mail to
Majordomo@blacksheep.org
with a line saying

help

in the message body.

VIII. COMMAND SUMMARY FOR ADVANCED USERS

In the description below items contained in []'s are optional. When
providing the item, do not include the []'s around it.  Items in angle
brackets, such as <address>, are meta-symbols that should be replaced
by appropriate text without the angle brackets.

It understands the following commands:

    subscribe <list> [<address>]
Subscribe yourself (or <address> if specified) to the named <list>.

    unsubscribe <list> [<address>]
Unsubscribe yourself (or <address> if specified) from the named <list>.
"unsubscribe *" will remove you (or <address>) from all lists.  This
_may not_ work if you have subscribed using multiple addresses.

    get <list> <filename>
        Get a file related to <list>.

    index <list>
        Return an index of files you can "get" for <list>.

    which [<address>]
Find out which lists you (or <address> if specified) are on.

    who <list>
Find out who is on the named <list>.

    info <list>
Retrieve the general introductory information for the named <list>.

    intro <list>
Retrieve the introductory message sent to new users.  Non-subscribers
may not be able to retrieve this.

    lists
Show the lists served by this Majordomo server.

    help
Retrieve this message.

    end
Stop processing commands (useful if your mailer adds a signature).

Commands should be sent in the body of an email message to
"Majordomo@blacksheep.org". Multiple commands can be processed provided
each occurs on a separate line.

Commands in the "Subject:" line are NOT processed.

If you have any questions or problems, please contact
"Majordomo-Owner@blacksheep.org".

Copy of ZL6QH in NC not as clear last night due to QRN from a few storms
that popped up several hundred miles east of here.  But I would say the
signal strength was about the same as the two previous nights.

Best capture looks to be just before sunrise:

The three day series of captures are all in the directory at:

Thanks for the effort Bob and the group.  Great show!

Les,

Sending anything to majordomo@blacksheep.org will produce the instructions
shown below. This information will have been sent to you when you first
subscribed.

Note that I have nothing to do with the sysop. I'm just a customer, like
you.

Mike, G3XDV
http://www.lf.thersgb.net
=================


This help message is being sent to you from the Majordomo mailing list
management system at Majordomo@blacksheep.org.

This is version 1.94.4 of Majordomo.

If you're familiar with mail servers, an advanced user's summary of
Majordomo's commands appears at the end of this message.

Majordomo is an automated system which allows users to subscribe
and unsubscribe to mailing lists, and to retrieve files from list
archives.

You can interact with the Majordomo software by sending it commands
in the body of mail messages addressed to "Majordomo@blacksheep.org".
Please do not put your commands on the subject line; Majordomo does
not process commands in the subject line.

You may put multiple Majordomo commands in the same mail message.
Put each command on a line by itself.

If you use a "signature block" at the end of your mail, Majordomo may
mistakenly believe each line of your message is a command; you will
then receive spurious error messages.  To keep this from happening,
either put a line starting with a hyphen ("-") before your signature,
or put a line with just the word

end

on it in the same place.  This will stop the Majordomo software from
processing your signature as bad commands.

Here are some of the things you can do using Majordomo:

I. FINDING OUT WHICH LISTS ARE ON THIS SYSTEM

To get a list of publicly-available mailing lists on this system, put the
following line in the body of your mail message to Majordomo@blacksheep.org:

lists

Each line will contain the name of a mailing list and a brief description
of the list.

To get more information about a particular list, use the "info" command,
supplying the name of the list.  For example, if the name of the list
about which you wish information is "demo-list", you would put the line

info demo-list

in the body of the mail message.

II. SUBSCRIBING TO A LIST

Once you've determined that you wish to subscribe to one or more lists on
this system, you can send commands to Majordomo to have it add you to the
list, so you can begin receiving mailings.

To receive list mail at the address from which you're sending your mail,
simply say "subscribe" followed by the list's name:

subscribe demo-list

If for some reason you wish to have the mailings go to a different address
(a friend's address, a specific other system on which you have an account,
or an address which is more correct than the one that automatically appears
in the "From:" header on the mail you send), you would add that address to
the command.  For instance, if you're sending a request from your work
account, but wish to receive "demo-list" mail at your personal account
(for which we will use "jqpublic@my-isp.com" as an example), you'd put
the line

subscribe demo-list jqpublic@my-isp.com

in the mail message body.

Based on configuration decisions made by the list owners, you may be added
to the mailing list automatically.  You may also receive notification
that an authorization key is required for subscription.  Another message
will be sent to the address to be subscribed (which may or may not be the
same as yours) containing the key, and directing the user to send a
command found in that message back to Majordomo@blacksheep.org.  (This can
be
a bit of extra hassle, but it helps keep you from being swamped in extra
email by someone who forged requests from your address.)  You may also
get a message that your subscription is being forwarded to the list owner
for approval; some lists have waiting lists, or policies about who may
subscribe.  If your request is forwarded for approval, the list owner
should contact you soon after your request.

Upon subscribing, you should receive an introductory message, containing
list policies and features.  Save this message for future reference; it
will also contain exact directions for unsubscribing.  If you lose the
intro mail and would like another copy of the policies, send this message
to Majordomo@blacksheep.org:

intro demo-list

(substituting, of course, the real name of your list for "demo-list").

III. UNSUBSCRIBING FROM MAILING LISTS

Your original intro message contains the exact command which should be
used to remove your address from the list.  However, in most cases, you
may simply send the command "unsubscribe" followed by the list name:

unsubscribe demo-list

(This command may fail if your provider has changed the way your
address is shown in your mail.)

To remove an address other than the one from which you're sending
the request, give that address in the command:

unsubscribe demo-list jqpublic@my-isp.com

In either of these cases, you can tell Majordomo@blacksheep.org to remove
the address in question from all lists on this server by using "*"
in place of the list name:

unsubscribe *
unsubscribe * jqpublic@my-isp.com

IV. FINDING THE LISTS TO WHICH AN ADDRESS IS SUBSCRIBED

To find the lists to which your address is subscribed, send this command
in the body of a mail message to Majordomo@blacksheep.org:

which

You can look for other addresses, or parts of an address, by specifying
the text for which Majordomo should search.  For instance, to find which
users at my-isp.com are subscribed to which lists, you might send the
command

which my-isp.com

Note that many list owners completely or fully disable the "which"
command, considering it a privacy violation.

V. FINDING OUT WHO'S SUBSCRIBED TO A LIST

To get a list of the addresses on a particular list, you may use the
"who" command, followed by the name of the list:

who demo-list

Note that many list owners allow only a list's subscribers to use the
"who" command, or disable it completely, believing it to be a privacy
violation.

VI. RETRIEVING FILES FROM A LIST'S ARCHIVES

Many list owners keep archives of files associated with a list.  These
may include:
- back issues of the list
- help files, user profiles, and other documents associated with the list
- daily, monthly, or yearly archives for the list

To find out if a list has any files associated with it, use the "index"
command:

index demo-list

If you see files in which you're interested, you may retrieve them by
using the "get" command and specifying the list name and archive filename.
For instance, to retrieve the files called "profile.form" (presumably a
form to fill out with your profile) and "demo-list.9611" (presumably the
messages posted to the list in November 1996), you would put the lines

get demo-list profile.form
get demo-list demo-list.9611

in your mail to Majordomo@blacksheep.org.

VII. GETTING MORE HELP

To contact a human site manager, send mail to
Majordomo-Owner@blacksheep.org.
To contact the owner of a specific list, send mail to that list's
approval address, which is formed by adding "-approval" to the user-name
portion of the list's address.  For instance, to contact the list owner
for demo-list@blacksheep.org, you would send mail to
demo-list-approval@blacksheep.org.

To get another copy of this help message, send mail to
Majordomo@blacksheep.org
with a line saying

help

in the message body.

KN4LF 7 Day Medium Frequency Radio Propagation Outlook #2003-01

Published 8:00 PM EST 02/12/28 For 02/12/28-03/01/03.

PROPAGATION-

Expect fair to good domestic propagation conditions on east-west paths and
poor to fair on north south paths in the northern hemisphere out to
approximately 1050 miles.

Expect fair domestic propagation conditions on east-west paths and poor on
north south paths in the southern hemisphere out to approximately 1050
miles.


"High latitude" northern hemispheric (TA) Trans Atlantic, (TP) Trans Pacific
and cross equatorial propagation conditions in excess of approximately 3000
miles should be poor becoming fair.

"High latitude" southern hemispheric (TA) Trans Atlantic, (TP) Trans Pacific
and cross equatorial propagation conditions in excess of approximately 3000
miles should be poor.


"Mid latitude" northern hemisphere (TA) Trans Atlantic, (TP) Trans Pacific
and cross equatorial propagation conditions in excess of approximately 3000
miles should be fair becoming good.

"Mid latitude" southern hemisphere (TA) Trans Atlantic, (TP) Trans Pacific
and cross equatorial propagation conditions in excess of approximately 3000
miles should be fair.


"Low latitude" northern hemisphere (TA) Trans Atlantic, (TP) Trans Pacific
propagation conditions in excess of approximately 3000 miles should be good.

"Low latitude" southern hemisphere (TA) Trans Atlantic, (TP) Trans Pacific
propagation conditions in excess of approximately 3000 miles should be fair.


QRN-

During the outlook period there will be "high" lightning induced QRN levels
in low latitude areas of the northern hemisphere due to proximity of the
Inter Tropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ).

Northern hemisphere mid latitude regions can expect "moderate to
occasionally high" lightning induced QRN tied to cold season thunderstorms,
cold/warm/occluded fronts and associated extra-tropical cold core low
pressure systems. These weather systems are currently being enhanced by the
moderate level El Nino ocean water temperature anomaly.

Northern hemisphere high latitude regions can expect "low to occasionally
moderate" lightning induced QRN tied to cold season thunderstorms,
cold/warm/occluded fronts and associated extra-tropical cold core low
pressure systems. These weather systems are currently being enhanced by the
moderate level El Nino ocean water temperature anomaly.


During the outlook period there will be "high" lightning induced QRN levels
in low latitude areas of the southern hemisphere tied to warm season
thunderstorms and tropical systems.

Southern hemisphere mid latitude regions can expect "moderate to high"
lightning induced QRN, tied to warm season thunderstorms and tropical
systems.

Southern hemisphere high latitude regions can expect "moderate" lightning
induced QRN, tied to warm season thunderstorms and tropical systems.


Here are some general guidelines concerning correlation of space weather and
propagation indices to actual expected HF/MF propagation conditions.

1.) Dropping indices numbers are better.

2.) Solar flux under 150 okay, under 100 better, 70 is best for E layer
multi hop.

2a.) For high frequencies (HF) solar flux of 100 is okay, 150 better, above
200 best.

3.) Solar flux of at least 100 for E valley-F layer ducting mechanism.

4.) Previous 24 hour Ap index under 10, under 7 for several days
consecutively is best.

5.) Previous 3 hour Kp index under 3 for mid latitude paths, under 2 for
high latitude paths, 0-1 for several days consecutively is best.

6.) Energetic protons no greater then 10 MeV (10+0) for 160/120 meters and
no greater then (10-1) on MF broadcast band.

7.) Background x-ray flux levels less than C2 for several days consecutively
for 160/120 meters and less then C1 for MF broadcast band.

8.) No current STRATWARM alert.

9.) IMF Bz with a negative sign, indicates a better chance of high latitude
path auroral absorption/unpredictable refraction or scattering of MF RF
signals, when the Kp is above 3.


SPACE WEATHER INDICES DURING THE PAST 7 DAY PERIOD, SPACE WEATHER INDICES
EXPECTED DURING THE 7 DAY OUTLOOK PERIOD AND EXPLANATIONS OF THEIR IMPACT ON
ANTICIPATED PROPAGATION CONDITIONS.


ENERGETIC PROTON FLUX-

During the previous 7 day period no elevated energetic proton flux events of
>10 MeV (10+0) occurred.

During the 7 day outlook period the probability of an elevated energetic
proton flux event >10 MeV (10+0) is placed at 10%.


An elevated energetic proton flux level greater then (10+0) on 160 meters
and greater then (10-1) on the medium frequency broadcast band creates
noticeably increased winter time day and year round night time D layer
absorption of medium wave frequencies, especially on high latitude
propagation paths but it can also negatively impact mid latitudes, depending
on the intensity of the event.

Elevated energetic proton events too small to be categorized as a Polar Cap
Absorption event (PCA) can still impact high and mid level medium frequency
propagation paths in the form of excessive D layer absorption. This fact is
still stubbornly opposed by some otherwise very knowledgeable space weather
physicists over dependent on high latitude threshold Riometer readings.

((((Note, high latitude medium frequency radio propagation paths can still
be disturbed for days and up to weeks, following the end of an official >10
MeV (10+0) proton event.))))


SOLAR FLUX-

During the previous 7 day period the daily solar flux levels ranged between
198 and 115. The 115 is the lowest daily solar flux value to occur since
September 1999!

During the outlook period the daily solar flux values should range between
approximately 150 and 110.


Elevated background X-ray flux levels can impact propagation of medium
frequency signals in a negative manner. Background X-ray flux levels of C1
or greater creates increased D-layer absorption of 160 and 120 meter signals
and B9 or greater creates increased D-layer absorption of AM broadcast band
signals.

High solar flux values are generally considered to be detrimental to
propagation of medium frequency signals both domestic and Trans Atlantic
(TA) & Trans Pacific (TP), as more absorption can be present via the
transmitted signals' two trips through the D layer at the takeoff and
arrival points.

Most "strong" longer haul medium frequency DX signals in excess of 3000
miles is via the E Valley-F layer ducting and/or Chordal Hop propagation
modes. Therefore high solar flux values can aid in long haul medium
frequency propagation paths in excess of 3000 miles, as a high solar flux
value ensures a strong F layer part of the E Valley-F layer duct or Chordal
Hop propagation mechanism.

However high solar activity in the form of increased ionization created by
Ultraviolet and X-Ray radiation can fill in the E Valley region and
interfere with the E Valley-F layer ducting mechanism. In a sense the E
Valley-F layer duct is closed on one or both ends of a propagation path and
the transmitted MF RF signal only propagates between the E layer and
land/ocean surface, with a higher angle and more loss.


SOLAR FLARES & SUNSPOT GROUP REGIONS-

During the previous 7 day period only one M class solar flares occurred. Ths
was an M1.1 solar flare on 02/12/22 at 0244-0304 UTC.

Amazingly no sunspot regions currently harbor even beta-gamma class magnetic
signatures that would harbor energy for large M class solar flares. Only
isolated M class solar flares are possible.

Solar flare forecast during the seven day period.

C- 100%

M- 30%

X- 01%


A C4 or higher class solar flare "can" elevate the proton flux above 10 MeV
(10+0) and initiate large scale high and mid latitude propagation path
absorption on the AM broadcast band, 160 and 120 meters, both stateside and
DX, as a transfer of increased density and RF signal absorption from the day
side D layer to night side of the ionosphere occurs through high level
neutral winds. Unfortunately even smaller C3 solar flares can create hour to
hour and night to night variations in signal strength on medium frequencies.

High and mid latitude Trans Atlantic (TA) and Trans Pacific (TP) propagation
paths tend to open up after a significant period of time passes without an
elevated energetic proton event of >10 MeV (10+0). This fact is still
stubbornly opposed by some otherwise very knowledgeable space weather
physicists over dependent on high latitude threshold Riometer readings.

Openings also occur when the solar background x-ray level falls back to
below C2 for 160 and 120 meters and below C1 for the AM broadcast band.


CORONAL MASS EJECTIONS/IONOSPHERIC STORMS/VISIBLE AURORA-

During the previous 7 day period no geo-effective (Earth facing) Coronal
Mass Ejections occurred. During the outlook period the probability of a
geo-effective (Earth facing) Coronal Mass Ejection (CME) is placed at 10%.



During the previous 7 day period a large recurring Coronal Hole was in a
geo-effective (Earth facing) position. It's related Solar Wind Stream
impacted the (IMF), for and extended period of time with a Kp index of 4
(Active) to 5 (Minor Storm), peaking at 6 (Moderate Storm) on 02/12/27.

During the outlook period the above mentioned large Coronal Hole will remain
in geo-effective (Earth facing) position and it's related Solar Wind Stream
will continue to impact the (IMF) for another 48-72 more hours.

The following related geomagnetic conditions will occur:

During the outlook period the probability of unsettled (Kp-3) geomagnetic
conditions is placed at 100%.

During the outlook period the probability of active (Kp-4) geomagnetic
conditions is placed at 90%.

During the outlook period the probability of at least a minor ionospheric
storm (Kp-5)(G1) is placed at 60%.

During the outlook period the probability of at least a moderate ionospheric
storm (Kp-6)(G2) is placed at 30%.

During the outlook period the probability of at least a strong ionospheric
storm (Kp-7+)(G3+) is placed at 20%.

G5 = Extreme - Kp = 9
G4 = Severe - Kp = 8
G3 = Strong - Kp = 7
G2 = Moderate - Kp = 6
G1 = Minor - Kp = 5
Active - Kp = 4
Unsettled - Kp = 3

During the outlook period the probability of a visible high latitude Aurora
display is placed at 100%, mid latitude 60%.

The Aurora Index at 1812 UTC 02/12/28 is a 7.

The NOAA POES historical database that was used to construct statistical
patterns of auroral power flux for each of the 10 levels of auroral activity
as defined by total power dissipation as illustrated in the following table.

Total Power Dissipation in Gigawatts/Activity Index Kp Index/Aurora Index

04-06/3/1+
10-16/5/2+
24-39/7/3+
61-96/9/5-


On 02/12/28 at 2046 UTC the Bz was 1.8 nt south.

The Wang-Sheeley Interplanetary Magnetic Field (IMF) Model which predicts
the Sun's IMF polarity, forecasts a positive (+) polarity between
02/12/28-03/01/03.


When the polarity of the IMF is negative a visible mid latitude Aurora
display is likely when a CME strikes the Earth's magnetic field. When the
polarity of the IMF is positive a visible mid latitude Aurora display is
unlikely as a CME strikes the Earth's magnetic field.

A Geomagnetic or Ionospheric Storm is a worldwide disturbance of the earth's
magnestosphere induced by the Sun's interplanetary magnetic field (IMF),
distinct from regular diurnal variations.

A Coronal Mass Ejection is the name given to an ejection of a large amount
of matter from the Sun's outer atmosphere or corona. These ejections
typically comprise millions of tons of material in the form of charged
particles, and can be seen because the material reflects sunlight. When one
of these ejections is directed towards the Earth (or conversely, directly
away from the Earth), it looks like a roughly circular "halo" surrounding
the Sun.

The "Halo CME's" then are those CME's which are more likely to impact the
Earth than those which are shot out at right angles to the Earth-Sun line.
Energetic protons emitted during CME's play a major role in increased day
time and night-time D-layer absorption of mediumwave frequencies.

Coronal Mass Ejections were once thought to be completely initiated by solar
flares. However it is now known that many (CME's) are not associated with
Solar Flares. If a (CME) collides with the Earth, it can excite a
Geomagnetic Storm if the polarity of the IMF has a negative sign. We must be
vigilant in watching for geoeffective (CME's), in order to not be caught by
surprise with a seemingly sudden and unexpected Geomagnetic Storm.

As the Kp index reaches 3-4, the aurora oval begins expanding equatorward in
magnetic latitude and generally begins having a negative impact on high
latitude medium frequency propagation paths. A Kp index of 5 or higher
begins to have a negative impact on high latitude high frequency shortwave
propagation paths. However at times skewed path propagation conditions can
compensate for high latitude propagation path auroral absorption.


STRATOSPHERIC WARMING-

During the outlook period increased winter like day and year round night
time D layer absorption of medium frequency signals tied to stratospheric
warming in the northern hemisphere is possible, due to a large scale
movement of Arctic air across the North Pole from Siberian Russia into
Canada.

In the nearer term of 7-14 days we will return to a negative North Atlantic
Oscillation (NAO) and Positive West Negative East (PNA) upper air height
anomaly pattern. This means a big ridge in the west all the way into the
Yukon region of Canada and a deep trough in the eastern U.S.down into the
Yucatan region of Mexico and another ridge in the western North Atlantic
Ocean. This pattern is also called a dual blocking ridge. This pattern taps
Siberian Arctic air across the North Pole and sends it rushing south,
increasing the chances of stratospheric warming.


As the stratosphere lies below the ionosphere, which is at mesosphere and
thermosphere height, you would not expect to see stratospheric warming
effect medium frequency propagation in any way BUT medium frequency signals
do propagate off of temperature inversions and moisture discontinuities and
a temperature inversion is involved with stratospheric warming. So it's
probable that a medium frequency signal could do any number of things when
scattering off of a temperature inversion, at any height. Unfortunately
though some otherwise very knowledgeable Physicists stubbornly resist this
concept.

Also stratospheric warming (STRATWARM) has a negative effect on medium
frequency propagation, due to increasing medium frequency radio wave
absorption by the D layer, via upward propagating Internal Gravity Waves
(IGW).

This phenomenon also occurs in southern hemisphere winter but seems to be
less pronounced.

Hello Alberto (& Mike WE0H),

Silly me, I remember all the discussion on the reflectors but forgot to
upgrade.  TU 4 pointing that out. I will upgrade today.

Oh, BTW,  my salutation should have read:

Michael,
   what happened is the reason why Argo build 130 (the version you are 
using)
has been superceeded by build 131.  Please upgrade (the cost is very 
reasonable ;-)
and that problem will disappear.

Good copy. Of course the 120 second slow screen does make the "Q" a little
tough to distinguish. BTW - I run my R75 in CW Reverse mode, and the
frequency inversion is righted. Be sure to recalibrate the frequency,
though, as it does shift slightly.

 now in darkness around 17:26, on 137700 you are abt 9dBµV/m, 21dB stronger than during the 20W-ERP afternoon session. Between the dashes, the idle carrier is clearly visible some 14dB or so below keydown level, an interesting feature reminiscent of SAQ's 17kHz magnetic-switch keyer. <BR>

Hi Group,

Strong signal in QRSS mode from F6CWA.
Signal audible (S2) on my TS570DG  with my LF antenna not erected (bad WX).
Hat capacitor at 1.5 m on the ground!

Copied the best signals yet from ZL6QH last night. Their signal showed up at
0833Z, shortly after midnight and was strong all night, peaking shortly
before sunrise. It abruptly faded about 10 minutes after sunrise (just
before the large noise burst visible on the screen capture). I was rather
surprised at the strength of their signal since LF condx here have been
terrible to say the least. For the past 2 nights (including last night) I
have not been able to hear a trace of anything east of Manitoba (VE4) with
respect to NDB prop indicators. My usual Ontario powerhouses are nowhere to
be found. Apparently the Pacific path is not overly affected by the present
coronal hole stream impacting E-W propagation from here.

Here is the last capture including the dawn dropout. Please note that my R75
inverts the audio so the 'dits' are above the dashes. As well, the clock is
5 minutes fast.

I again appeal to everyone on this list for help in unsubscribing from it!
This is my 5th request, so far they have gone without answer.

Unfortunately, if I do not receive instructions on how to remove myself
from this list, I will begin spamming it with large amounts of nonsense
postings daily until I am able to get the attention of whomever
administers it!

It is irresponsible to run a mailing list that does not include instructions
on how to remove yourself from it with every posting. It is VERY
irresponsible to not answer repeated requests from a list member
who wishes to be removed, nor to post such instructions on the
original web site.

I do not wish to take drastic action, nor do I wish to continue receiving
dozens of postings daily that have no bearing on LF experimentation
in the US.

Please, I appeal, again for help.

73,

Les Rayburn, N1LF

So signal detected from RU6LA last night.  There was a signal on the
0530 capture at approximately 135922.35.  I believe this is noise as I
recall often seeing activity on this freq.  But if by change someone
wants to claim it here is the capture:

Great signal again last night from ZL6QH on 137 kHz.  I used the Argo
QRSS60 mode this time to get more spacing between the elements but the
signal was so strong smearing still happen.  I believe QRSS10 or even
Jason may have been Q5 at times.

One of the best captures from last night can be seen at:

The whole overnight series are posted in a directory at:

<DIV>To All from PA0HRT.</DIV>
<DIV>&nbsp;</DIV>
<DIV>May be I can offer a PC or a soundcard that is not able to cope with the 
Binster program.</DIV>
<DIV>It is a Compaq LTE5300, W98, soundcard ESS1688. (If that is not the name of 
the soundcard, I have revealed my very limited knowledge of PC's).</DIV>
<DIV>&nbsp;</DIV>
<DIV>The Binster program has a nice waterfall picture so the incoming part is 
working and the loudspeaker gives the incoming signal, clearly without any 
processing. Changing the passband on Binster has no influence.</DIV>
<DIV>Ticking the WAVE on the Volume Control&nbsp; panel&nbsp;has no influence on 
the sound from the speaker. Even without clicking any possible input the 
incoming sound from the receiver to the line input is heard and that does not 
change when WAVE is ticked. Only ticking the Suppress All box mutes the 
loudspeaker.</DIV>
<DIV>&nbsp;</DIV>
<DIV>I have checked all settings of the soundcard with a SETUP for this card 
taken from internet and see no deviations.</DIV>
<DIV>&nbsp;</DIV>
<DIV>Any comments are welcome, thanks in advance.</DIV>

<HTML><FONT FACE=arial,helvetica><FONT  SIZE=2>Dear Ed and group,
<BR>
<BR>Thanks for the activity from Machta, and glad to have worked you from DF0WD with 90mW ERP.
<BR>
<BR>Sorry for being so close to RU6LA's TX frequency during my QSO with I5TGC. My intention was to stay at least 15 Hz clear off RU6LA him but my TX system fooled me (I was using CW for receive and USB to transmit, and the audio "pitch" was improperly set). Anyway Ed had such a strong signal here in northern DL so my transmission should not have done any harm to others trying to copy him.
<BR>
<BR>
<BR>Apart from this, there was not even the faintest trace from ZL6QH earlier. But condx were not favourable here, lots of QRN almost like summer time (no wonder: temperatures exceeded PLUS 10 °C which is very unusual for the season).
<BR>
<BR>Good luck and HNY to all,
<BR>Regards, 
<BR> &nbsp;Wolf

Alberto,
  My BFO offset is 700 hz. I used a broadcast station on 620 kc for ARGO
frequency calibration. I'm using a Yaesu FT-990 so can't tune under 100 kc
for WWVB. I had to use and actual offset of  650 hz  VS 700 hz to make the
620 kc carrier at exactly 700 hz on the top horizontal scale. Now I presume
I should find RU6LA sending QRSS60 on 135921.8 Hz, somewhere around 700 hz
on the top horizontal scale?! Or place 135921.8 kz minus 650 hz equals
135921.15 kc in the offset box under calibration then RU6LA should show up
near 135921.15 khz on the top horizontal scale. Correct? If he is using 60
dots/secs should I set it at 60 or something higher like 120 dot/secs for
bettere reception?

Can anyone verify that RU6LA is sending QRSS60 on 135.922?

Friday 2100

Returned home after visiting friends and checked the 136 band.
Saw I5TSG very good signal. Then two signals, one RU6LA and YU7AR. I dont
know if this was the signal from the YU or if it was a signal from a station
calling him. I hastily set up the transmitter and worked RU6LA. Saw F6BWO
call RU6LA but I don't think a QSO resulted.
RU6LA was still calling CQ at 2345.

Regards,
Peter, G3LDO

Hi all,

Thanks for private and reflector reports.  It looks like reception in North
America was very good at times.  I'm working through confirmations from John
W1TAG, Dex W4DEX, Mike KB6WFC and Mitch VE3OT (Ontario, 13958 km).

We decided at the last minute to not use the new DDS exciter for overnight
ZL6QH transmission as we were not confident of transients and stability at
frequency shifts, so we swapped to the previously used TS-850 SSB exciter
and laptop audio.  So for overnight transmission the frequency shift was 0.4
Hz, and transmitted frequencies were 137.7890 and 137.7886 kHz.  Timing of
elements was no worse than about 25 seconds late for a Q starting on the
hour.

This morning (well after sunrise) we revisited the DDS exciter, and by a
combination of filtering, damping and isolation between driver and PA, it
looks like it now works nicely with DDS drive and full power to the antenna.
So for tonight we expect to have 0.424 Hz shift and frequencies of 137.7891
and 137.7887 kHz.

73, Bob ZL2CA

Thomas,
        you did forget the decimal point.
If I read correctly, you typed 13770891, but you should have typed 
137708.91 (note the point)
And, in any case, the value to specify in the offset field is the value 
corresponding to the zero
beat on your Rx.  E.g.  if you tune the Rx in USB mode to 137000, then 
of course the zero beat
will be at this frequency. When you receive a signal of, let's say, 
137450.8 Hz, then you will
have a tone of 450.8 Hz.  If you don't set the offset field in Argo, 
then this tone will be displayed
as 450.8 Hz. You can accept this, or, if you prefer to have the true 
frequency displayed, set the
offset field in Argo to 137000. Then,  you will see that tone displayed 
at 137450.8 Hz, its true
frequency.   Hope to have been clear enough.

That's the signal, all right -- excellent copy. Glad that you let a little
go by to us folks in the east.

It looks like the signal to me but I'll let Bob have the final word.  I
think my computer clock is just about correct.  I ran slow mode for a
change.

The ZL6QH signal was detectable from 0730 to 1200 here in NC.  Looks
like the signal peaked around 0900 and again about 1130 to 1200.  The
signal was so strong during these times the elements started "dog
boning" and running together.  The best signal I seen yet from this
station.

  I must have done my frequency scale calibration wrong as I received
nothing here. I left the "Measured" and "Displayed"
columns with the default 1000 in them and placed 13770891 in the offset box,
as my BFO offset is 700 hz. Was this wrong?
I'm still learning how to use Argo.

I have two screen shots of the ZL6QH tests from this morning (27 Dec), taken
between 0935 and 1035 UTC.

90 sec/dot screen:
http://webpages.charter.net/w1tag/files/ZL6QH90.jpg

120 sec/dot screen:
http://webpages.charter.net/w1tag/files/ZL6QH120.jpg

The 120 second screen shows more identifiable "Q" signals.

Thanks!

Bob,

If all goes as planed I will be posting what I receive here in North
Carolina in 10 minuet intervals at:

http://www.w4dex.com/argo/zl6qh.jpg

Conditions look good here.  QRN is the lowest it's been lately.

Good luck and thanks for the transmission.

Hi all,

Regarding the forthcoming tests from ZL6QH, I have had private email
regarding the earlier bulletin suggesting making skeds for two-way contacts
using Jason if propagation on the first (ZL) night is found to be good.  I
was being too specific about mode capability at ZL6QH, as we can arrange to
transmit or receive any recognised QRSS mode.

It is a fine morning here in Wellington so there is little doubt that we
will be able to set up at ZL6QH this afternoon and be transmitting on LF
well before dusk.

73, Bob

 Hi Alan and Mike, thanks for the messages. There was a small mistake
about my QRG observed by Markus DF6NM, the right one is 137.664.
No provision for QRSS10 right now as the initial PIC time loop has the
maximal count of only 256 !. Will keep things running and let you know
with the results. Wish you a Happy, Prosper and Peacefull 2003. 73 Szigy.

Nothing seen last night or this morning, but there are many Loran lines
close to that frequency.
Are you able to run QRSS10?

   Season Greetings and a Happy New Year 2003.
 Am still around on LF fighting the downtown noise and
trying to move a step forward despite my OOTC status !.
 Got a PIC (16C84) from a friend and folowing the ideas
of SM6LKM started to build a keyer and LF generator.
Have added a QRSS3 section to the software and dividing
a 3579.545 KHz XTAL with 26 got a stable 137.666 KHz 
signal which is driving a DF3LP type (IRF630, IRF640)
amplifier, thats 50 W into a vario & sloping 41 m wire.
 Will run the beacon for several hours in the evenings
and mornings of the next days. Reports are welcome.
 73 Szigy.

Hi all,

 ZL6QH will be sending LF beacon transmissions overnight (New Zealand time)
on 27, 28 and 29 December.

Transmission will start about 0720 UTC (ZL6QH sunset is nominally 0752 UTC)
and end about 1730 UTC (ZL6QH sunrise is nominally 1655 UTC).

A new DDS exciter constructed by Andrew ZL2BBJ will be tried this time, with
long dot FSK beacon format very similar to that used previously for ZL6QH
beacon tests.  The identifier QQQQ.... is sent as hi/hi/lo/high/gap ....
with 120 second dot length for each element.  The DDS frequency shift is
0.424 Hz, so transmitted frequencies are (rounded to 0.1 Hz):
hi = 137.7891 kHz
lo = 137.7887 kHz

Each Q takes 10 minutes, so there are conveniently six Qs per hour.  To
assist with weak signal identification the timing will be arranged so that
the first element of a Q starts on the hour.  The DDS exciter is confirmed
to have accurate timing.

There is no email access at the remote Quartz Hill station, but there will
be daily trips to Wellington, so private and reflector email can be read.
If there are particularly good beacon results for Friday, we will be happy
to make skeds for attempted two-way DX contacts using Jason.  Any change to
the ZL6QH schedule will be posted to the RSGB reflector site.

Good luck,

Bob ZL2CA

Hi agn Sziggy I have pulled the line out using Spectran, with Integration to
remove the noises......84mHz resolution and averaging of 6.  After checking
cal there is a trace very close to your declared frequency, but this is
indistinguishable from the look of a Loran sideband line, as the processing
is too slow to detect the data. I have a capture of the Spectran screen but
it is too big to pass through the LF Reflector. It will need to be sent to
you directly if you would like to see it.

Propagation is not good tonight my received signal strength from SXV is
about 6 to 10dB down on usual, probably thanks to the geomagnetic storm a
few days ago.

You got that right Mike. Everyone has their favorite antenna and more power

I think Steve hit the nail on the head when he said:

Unfortunately, I suspect that this discussion will now degrade into
comparisons based on gain per square foot of swampland.

Loop vs. Monopole is like Kenwood Vs Icom. Or Ford vs. Chevy. At least at
this stage of the game. They both work. They both have their advantages and
disadvantages. I don't think that anyone will win any awards because they
used one over the other (all things being equal).

For *MYSELF*, the loop is a godsend. With my yard (small, treed, metal
buildings) a monopole with ground system would be a nightmare to install and
maintain. The loop is simple and out of the way. But if I had the property
and resources to install a vertical would I? You bet. Just for variety.

Wishing everyone best wishes,

Hi Sziggy, conditions are not too good here at the moment. I have distant
lightning crashes, and I am not using my best wire aerial. But I can see
something that might be an occasional horizontal "smear" on Argo about 1Hz
low of your declared frequency. I believe propagation may be a little
depressed at the moment after the recent geomagnetic storm, but the signal
could well pop up out of the noise later. Unfortunately my calculator
predicts a line from the NELS Loran-C at 137666.04 and another at 137665.02.
These are not strong enough to show clearly on QRSS3 here.
I will play with a narrower bandwidth FFT and see if I can identify them
properly.

Good Luck and a Best Wishes for the New Year
Cheers de Alan G3NYK   JO02PB

   Season Greetings and a Happy New Year 2003.
 Am still around on LF fighting the downtown noise and
trying to move a step forward despite my OOTC status !.
 Got a PIC (16C84) from a friend and folowing the ideas
of SM6LKM started to build a keyer and LF generator.
Have added a QRSS3 section to the software and dividing
a 3579.545 KHz XTAL with 26 got a stable 137.666 KHz 
signal which is driving a DF3LP type (IRF630, IRF640)
amplifier, thats 50 W into a vario & sloping 41 m wire.
 Will run the beacon for several hours in the evenings
and mornings of the next days. Reports are welcome.
 73 Szigy.

  <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Hello all ,</FONT></DIV>
  <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT>&nbsp;</DIV>
  <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Here follows my experience with a big 
  loop:</FONT></DIV>
  <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT>&nbsp;</DIV>
  <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I have a small loop with 40turns, the turns are 
  spaced 5mm and the side of the loop is 70x70cm. The wire&nbsp;has a diameter 
  of 1mm.&nbsp;The inductance is 1.85mH and the Q is 110. Together with this I 
  use a modified version of the preamp described on page 30 in the LF 
  Experimenters Handbook. The main difference being BF246C (high current FET:s) 
  used instead&nbsp; of 2N3819.&nbsp; </FONT></DIV>
  <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT>&nbsp;</DIV>
  <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>The directivity is&nbsp;as follows:&nbsp;When 
  adjusted to get maximum signal from DCF39 I have about S9+30dB on the S-meter 
  (on a DRAKE TR7) dropping to around S7&nbsp;when adjusted to get&nbsp;minimum 
  signal from DCF. (I have no means of calibrating the S-meter 
  accurately).</FONT></DIV>
  <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT>&nbsp;</DIV>
  <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Last summer I tried a bigger loop with 6 turns 
  and a side of 5m. It was mounted with the lowest corner about 50cm above 
  ground and using the same preamp as described above. The wire used was with a 
  cross section of 1,5mm2 and having plastic insulation. </FONT></DIV>
  <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>It was then turned to get a peak on DCF39.&nbsp; 
  Changing between the two loops a few times revealed that the big loop was just 
  slightly better than the small loop. The difference was barely detectable on 
  the S-meter. I did not measure the Q, however when adjusting for resonance I 
  found that it was not that "sharp" as that of the small loop so the Q seems to 
  be&nbsp;lower. The inductance was around 1mH. Considering the small difference 
  to the samll loop and the problem of turning it I soon took it 
  down.</FONT></DIV>
  <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT>&nbsp;</DIV>
  <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year</FONT></DIV>

Mike, I must have missed something, who is Bill and where do I find info
about Ashlock loops?

What is special about an Ashlock loop you ask; the tuning components.
Nothing new and exotic just explained real well by Bill and tested over and
over to refine the procedure and construction and installation of a
super-performing loop. Everyone that has followed his advise to the exact
letter has gotten a good signal on the band in the US. I am waiting for the
license to be mailed back so I can cram 400w into my loop. If I can make 1w
go easily past 160 miles with a totally audible CW signal day and night,
imagine what 400w or even less would do as I don't think it will take the
full legal limit to make solid CW contacts with this antenna and decent
conditions.

I understand that most amateur LF antennas are inefficient, but these loops
have been bad mouthed for a long time and we have an Engineer here that has
taken on the task of designing and testing the heck out of a 50' by 50' loop
on 185kc and come up with a few variations that tested in the real world on
the air and continue to prove their awesome design and engineering to
perform excellent.

Yes, verticals do work well with the proper installation. Or you can make a
lousy installed vertical work with a bunch of power. But take a lousy
installed loop or lousy matched loop and it wont work worth a darn. Follow
Bill's advise and it will work.

What's special about an Ashlock loop?

The article I mentioned does say that electrically tiny loops are
inefficient - but aren't electrically tiny verticals inefficient too?

I think Steve hit the nail on the head when he said:

> The article I mentioned does say that electrically tiny loops are
> inefficient - but aren't electrically tiny verticals inefficient too?

Unfortunately, I suspect that this discussion will now degrade into
comparisons based on gain per square foot of swampland.

Loop vs. Monopole is like Kenwood Vs Icom. Or Ford vs. Chevy. At least at
this stage of the game. They both work. They both have their advantages and
disadvantages. I don't think that anyone will win any awards because they
used one over the other (all things being equal).

For *MYSELF*, the loop is a godsend. With my yard (small, treed, metal
buildings) a monopole with ground system would be a nightmare to install and
maintain. The loop is simple and out of the way. But if I had the property
and resources to install a vertical would I? You bet. Just for variety.

Wishing everyone best wishes,
Mike

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Here follows my experience with a big 
loop:</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT>&nbsp;</DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I have a small loop with 40turns, the turns are 
spaced 5mm and the side of the loop is 70x70cm. The wire&nbsp;has a diameter of 
1mm.&nbsp;The inductance is 1.85mH and the Q is 110. Together with this I use a 
modified version of the preamp described on page 30 in the LF Experimenters 
Handbook. The main difference being BF246C (high current FET:s) used 
instead&nbsp; of 2N3819.&nbsp; </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT>&nbsp;</DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>The directivity is&nbsp;as follows:&nbsp;When 
adjusted to get maximum signal from DCF39 I have about S9+30dB on the S-meter 
(on a DRAKE TR7) dropping to around S7&nbsp;when adjusted to get&nbsp;minimum 
signal from DCF. (I have no means of calibrating the S-meter 
accurately).</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT>&nbsp;</DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Last summer I tried a bigger loop with 6 turns and 
a side of 5m. It was mounted with the lowest corner about 50cm above ground and 
using the same preamp as described above. The wire used was with a cross section 
of 1,5mm2 and having plastic insulation. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>It was then turned to get a peak on DCF39.&nbsp; 
Changing between the two loops a few times revealed that the big loop was just 
slightly better than the small loop. The difference was barely detectable on the 
S-meter. I did not measure the Q, however when adjusting for resonance I found 
that it was not that "sharp" as that of the small loop so the Q seems to 
be&nbsp;lower. The inductance was around 1mH. Considering the small difference 
to the samll loop and the problem of turning it I soon took it 
down.</FONT></DIV>

It did not work for me, though I have no trouble with Spectran's filters. I
get the input, not the output, from the loudspeaker. The web page refers to
Win95, so perhaps it will not work on Win ME.

What's special about an Ashlock loop?

The article I mentioned does say that electrically tiny loops are
inefficient - but aren't electrically tiny verticals inefficient too?

Then why did my 1-watt signal go 1302 miles the other week? I was sending
QRSS-30 and the receive station was southwest from here. My loop points
north and south. It usually goes out past 500 miles in QRSS and over 160
miles in CW with the receiving station listening to it with his ears. It is
an Ashlock loop maybe that is the difference???

Thanks Steve.
Its a wonderful article and has certainly refreshed my mathematical skills.
It starts off by saying that small loops are very INEFFICIENT and because of
the high losses really only suitable for Receiving purposes. Not very
promising.

Yes my problem is also solved. I knew about the mixer properies button and
had checked it but not real recently. My "Wave Output" was checked as on but
the volume was turned down. Another I/O error:<) We Have Horrendous QRM
stateside
with a winter storm so no LF here for a couple of days.

Thomas,
    what you hear with most probability is the audio going directly from 
the line input
to the speakers.  See the very good  explanation given by Jim Moritz on 
this subject,
and his suggestions on how to proceed.

I'm glad you found it useful - I found the maths just about manageable, and 
the final equations very useable. If you go up a layer to .........../temp/ 
you will find a series of a dozen or more such 'lectures' which deal with 
most antenna topics in the same way.

making a larger loop than going for more turns, for any given amount of wire.

Thanks Steve.
Its a wonderful article and has certainly refreshed my mathematical skills.
It starts off by saying that small loops are very INEFFICIENT and because of
the high losses really only suitable for Receiving purposes. Not very
promising.

Dear Dick, LF Group,

As others have pointed out, there seem to be several paths for the audio 
arriving directly at the mic or line input to get to the audio output. I 
have found the settings tend to default to ones where a signal path direct 
from input to output is enabled, which obviously defeats the DSP filter. 
The "volume control" display seems to vary with different sound cards and 
drivers. It does not always show all the controls, but if you click on 
"options - properties", you get a list headed "show the following volume 
controls", and you can click on the tick-boxes to enable displays of all 
the controls. If you then click on the "mute" tick-boxes of all the 
controls except the master volume control, and the "Wave" output, that 
seems to disable all signal paths except the one coming from the DSP 
software - well, at least it does on the computers I have tried...

Cheers, Jim Moritz

Dear LF Group,

I hope to be running the Jason beacon again on the 28th/29th of December, 
from about 2000 utc onwards; in order to try and avoid some Loran lines at 
the US end, I will be shifting the frequency slightly to 137502.5Hz.

Along with general activity on LF, I also hope to be watching out for the 
RU6LA and ZL6QH operations - good luck to all involved.

See you in the new year,

Cheers, Jim Moritz

With all the loop talk that has been going on since before time began has
anyone found a design for a near perfect small loop, suppose its like how
long is a piece of string, obviously the bigger the better but then there is
the diminishing returns senario, it there much noticeable difference between
a 2 meter side square loop and a 4meter.
Which is better a single turn loop, several turns in series, several turns
in parallel and the best method of feed and matching at the loop. <snip>
------------------
This site gives a good treatise on loop antennas from first principles, and
provides the maths to let you consider what to expect with changes in size
and numbers of turns.

I'm experiencing the same problem as others have mentioned. The DSP filters
in Spectran
do not alter the audio.

Yes, Alan is right. The original LF Experimenters Sourcebook was produced in
1996 in response to a requirement for information for the then new 73kHz
allocation in the UK. Information for this book came from such sources as
'LF Scene' (by ZL1CA & ZL2BBJ), a column from the New Zealand ham radio mag
'Break In' and 'The Lowdown', the magazine of the Longwave Club of America;
these guys were the only ones with experiance in LF at the time. It was
produced comb bound with a blue cover.
A second edition was produced in 1998. By this time we had some experiance
of our own to include and we also had the new 136kHz band. This publication
also was produced comb bound with a blue cover.
These publications were produced rather hurredly to meet a need and the
pages were photocopies of paste-ups. A higher quality publication was
required and this was met with 'The Low Frequency Experimenter's Handbook',
which was published in 2000.
I have included an Addendum and Erratta to this book on my website, shown
below. Work on this site is a bit behind shedule but it will be updated very
shortly. I have a mass of stuff that has been edited from hundreds of
e-mails on the LF reflector and this also will be included.

Regards,
Peter, G3LDO

Season's Greetings to all:
I have just received Radio Amateurs of Canada Jan/Feb 2003
magazine and found a very interesting note about 135.7-137.8 kHz
"Amateur Band".

I quote"

Industry Canada Supports 135.7 - 137.8 kHz Amateur Band

Following two years of joint proposal development by Radio
Amateurs of Canada and Industry Canada, at the November 2002
meeting of CITEL ( the inter-American Telecommunication
Commission), Industry Canada will table a formal proposal that
the Amateur service around the world be authorized to operate in the
band 135.7-137.8 kHz, subject to certain conditions.
Approval of this meeting is a first step toward seeking approval
at the World Radiocommunication Conference in Geneva, Switzerland
in June 2003 (WRC 2003), where the proposal will have to be added
to the WRC-2003 agenda.

"unquote"

There is a further, more detailed note explaining the activity
in Europe and around the world - with notes about the ITU Region 2
( the Americas ) activity with past transatlantic experiments.

A hopeful start for an early Christmas present - maybe.

Best wishes and a happy and merry Christmas to all on the list.
Good health and may you all have low noise levels !

I found my problem. It was not a sound card and software incompatibility. It
turned out to be and I/O error,
"Idiot Operator" that had line in volume on mixer control turned down. Seems
that you have to visit the mixer control
and adjust for each "save settings" profile.

I think what Jan-Martin has is the old LF Experimenters Sourcebook which is
a comb bound compilation with a blue cover, of copies of articles published
before 1995. In fact I think there were two editions of the "Sourcebook".
The book Dick is refering to is a later glossy bound printed book (pub 2001)
which is much more up to date with current projects., including Dave's Amp.
LF is moving so fast that we will be needing an update of that book soon !!

Hi all, Brian is well towards completing his rebuild and new web site, and
has sent me a partial plot for last night. I though that, with the holidays
comming up and some tests scheduled,  I should try and provide some
information. I apologise to those who have accessed the pages during the
down period ( I was quite shocked to see how high the counter had jumped
since my last activity) I will try to keep a running commentary on
conditions through the new year.

For those who have not accessed the page it can be visited via the "button"
on Dave's (G3YXM) site www.wireless.org, or it can be accessed though my own
site URL below after going from the Contents section to the Propagation
introduction and clicking on Latest reports. The direct URL is
http://www.alan.melia.btinternet.co.uk/latest.htm

Happy Christmas and a Good New Year to all on LF.

Cheers de Alan G3NYK

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>It was not until recently that I found out about 
the extent of "mixer control" placement(s) in a sound card.&nbsp; There are 
analogue and digital mixers.&nbsp; The MIC-IN, LINE-IN and CD-IN have inputs 
split to feed an A/D converter as well as&nbsp;an anlogue mixer going to the 
master volume control and LINE-OUT (also an internal power amplifier and speaker 
out on some sound cards, newer types have speaker matters external to the 
PC).</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT>&nbsp;</DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>The A/D converted data has a source selector switch 
(A/D or WAVE data) before reaching the PC bus.&nbsp; On newer sound cards the 
bus has an AC97 compliant interface.&nbsp; The DSP "number crunching" is done by 
the PC CPU and processed data then comes back to the sound card (delayed a 
little), where a digital mixer selects the source, it then goes through a stereo 
D/A converter, and further to the same analogue mixer that handles the MIC-IN, 
LINE-IN and CD-IN&nbsp;(the analogue input signals can bypass the digital 
processing).</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT>&nbsp;</DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Sound card drivers do not seem to provide user 
access to all mixers and switches on a card.&nbsp; Different application 
software may include user input to selections of analogue and digital mixers, or 
pre-programme selections.&nbsp; There is at least one FFT filter programme I 
have used that does apply the digitally filtered sound to the analogue 
output.&nbsp; On the other hand, there are other programmes that do just as you 
describe,&nbsp;with only analogue going to audio out, presumably because the 
digital output is intended to go to the screen.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Some sound cards also have access to tone controls

controls.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I trust my text explanations are useful.&nbsp; I do

How much signal power a loop can deliver to the receiver depends on 2 
factors - the area, and the Q (or losses). How much you need  depends on 
the overall system design; how good or bad the RX is, whether you want to 
trade off sensitivity against bandwidth, have a wide tuning range, etc., so 
yes, it is a "how long is a piece of string" question. But as a rough 
guide, a 1m^2 tuned loop with a sensibly designed preamp, or with good 
matching to a low noise receiver will give a noise floor well below the 
band noise. The signal to noise ratio of the loop is good, but the absolute 
signal level is much smaller than with a vertical, so the performance of 
the receiver is much more important. If you double the size to 4m^2, the 
design becomes a lot less critical because you are picking up 12dB more 
signal to start with. With very large loops, almost anything will deliver 
more than adequate signal levels, but then you lose the advantages of a 
small loop - being able to rotate it for optimum peaking or nulling, and 
being able to move it to find a location with low noise levels.

It is largely a matter of convenience of design - Several alternatives have 
been mentioned; they all work if done properly.

Maybe it would be a good idea not to keep saying how they are all rubbish 
before you have actually tried them...

If you have no QRM, and adequate sensitivity already, you can't expect to 
gain much from other types of antennas. Perhaps you need to install more of 
today's technology - light dimmers, home entertainment systems, compact 
florescent bulbs, computers etc. etc. so you can really put things to the test!

Merry Christmas To All,
   I've been DXing LF broadcasters, aviation and marine beacons and marine
ship to shore stations for 38 years BUT I'm new on this e-list and also to
the "digital" DXing aspects of LF. I downloaded Argo V1 B131 from
http://www.qsl.net/padan/argo/ and it is compatible with the older "Analog
Devices Audio 1815" sound card in my dedicated 133 mhz radio hobby computer.
I get sound coming out of my speakers from the sound card and visual input
from the sound card to the software.
  I then downloaded Spectran Beta 3 B262 from
http://www.highnoonfilm.com/xmgr/specpak3_262.exe and it is also compatible
with my older sound card, as I get sound coming out of my speakers from the
sound card and visual input from the sound card to the software. However it
seems to be a stripped down version with no controls toolbar up top? Is
there a newer more complete version of Spectran 3 that I can download?
  I ask because when I downloaded  Spectran 4 V1 B107  from
http://www.qsl.net/padan/spectran.html it seems to be only partially
incompatible with my older sound card? When I run the sound card
compatibility utility all seems to run okay and it loads 3 pre sets but when
I start running the software I get no sound coming out of my speakers from
the sound card but am getting a visual input from the sound card to the
software. Is this normal to hear no sound when running Spectran 4 V1 B107 or
is it indeed a partial sound card incompatibility.

Tried several times to request that mails should be sent to my home email address, 
but so far - invain, it is incorrectly sent to work email address.
Should this cause some problems with automatic 'out of office' messages you know the reason, 
my email address is LA8AK@online.no

Dear LF Group,

Wishing a happy Christmas to all readers of the LF reflector, and all the 
best for 2003

My office is closed for Christmas from tomorrow mid-day until 2nd of 
January - for various boring reasons I do not have e-mail at home yet, so I 
will be out of touch between these times. I hope to be QRV on LF between 
now and then; I am planning to operate the Jason beacon during the nights 
of Saturday 28th and Sunday 29th on 137.500kHz again, unless someone comes 
up with other suggestions soon!

Cheers, Jim Moritz

<b>To All from PA0SE<br><br>
Some programs, like Spectran, have the possibility to make the processed
signal heard via the PC speakers. <br>
But my problem is that the use of&nbsp; filters provided by the program

Hi Mike...

Nothing seen from you on QRSS. Since october-november I have a strange QRM.
It looks like interference from the nearest MF broadcast. During the night
time is a problem to copy anything, because a QRM from streetlights. I just
build an frame loop antenna for receiving (G3LNP). So, maybe my RX
capabilities will improve in next few days.

Best regards and I hope to see you again.

Rich,

I called you twice on Sunday, but you obviously did not hear me. I agree
that QRSS  fits in with other activities, especially as it is silent.

Hi

It seems to be some problems with expressions. My first reaction is as simple as
saying that "if it is three variable" you don't know what makes the improvement
when you change all three at the same time.

For many years I thought that it was an idea to use a balanced amplifier, and did
some efforts on this. But how do you build a balanced amplifier? The article in
Electronics World August 2002 shows the application of an OP-amp, this is probably
the only realistic solution. Have also seen some more or less strange versions with
2x MPF102 and 2N3904 or similar. 
My experience (and other) says that it is extremely difficult to build a balanced
amplifier, as is it to build a balanced mixer using JFETs, it doesn't come by it's
own. JFETs have very much varying IDSS, and for MPF102 it is quoted 2-20mA. But even
if you find two almost equal devices you should verify the balance.

What is the advantage if one device has Yfs 10% lower than the opposite?

The center-grounded-loop is already balanced at as long as you use a high impedance 
amplifier connected to one side it is still balanced.

But I was curious, I had already experience that the high impedance amplifier wasn't
necessary for 80m or 160m, it only added extra noise, the only purpose it serves is
impedance matching between the high impedance side of loop to the receiver - with
some gain, but you don't need this gain, so the difference is only extra noise.

A coupling loop is sufficient on 160 and 80m - with less atmospheric noise.

My converter system doesn't have much gain, but as long as noise increases when antenna is
connected it is an indication that sensitivity is better than needed.

I'm guessing that the only problem we have here is the terminology. Steve
says his loop is unbalanced. I would call it 'floating' since the connection
to the receiver is an isolated single-turn pickup coil. If he were to
connect one side of the main loop winding to the coax shield it would become
unbalanced and the performance would be degraded considerably.

If the loop is a single winding center-tapped design, a balanced amplifier
having three input connections, a +, -, and a common is needed. Call it a
differential amplifier if you would like.

At my base situation an amplifier is required because I do NOT have the
'10db above background' condition, identified above, for my weakest signals.
The problem is that there are large 60Hz plus harmonics (buzzz), currents in
the ground that my 200ft coax lead-in picks up. I'm thinking of trying a
balanced line (oops, here we go again <G>) per John Andrew's suggestion, in
order to eliminate this pickup ......so the need for the amplifier goes
away.

Hi: José

>Does anybody else receive a continuos carrier on 137424.3 Hz ??

My receiver does not have the frequency resolution to measure to the figure
you quote, however there has been a carrier on 137.450 seen here ever since
the band was allocated. It is audible here and may originate from France.

Regards,
Peter, G3LDO

Jim, nice to write you after long period!
I will test your Jasson beacon next weekend. If a possible to start litle
bit early (from 20 GMT) I will happy test from my urban QTH.
No so big chances... I copy DCF39 ~ 45-50db S/N ratio in 1 Hz band... No
comparable with my summer residence :-((
73! Vlad. RX3QFM. (QTH - KO91OP - Voronezh.)

Steve says:

Jan that a preamp is of no value once your limiting noise floor is

Jan says:

background band

I'm guessing that the only problem we have here is the terminology. Steve
says his loop is unbalanced. I would call it 'floating' since the connection
to the receiver is an isolated single-turn pickup coil. If he were to
connect one side of the main loop winding to the coax shield it would become
unbalanced and the performance would be degraded considerably.

If the loop is a single winding center-tapped design, a balanced amplifier
having three input connections, a +, -, and a common is needed. Call it a
differential amplifier if you would like.

At my base situation an amplifier is required because I do NOT have the
'10db above background' condition, identified above, for my weakest signals.
The problem is that there are large 60Hz plus harmonics (buzzz), currents in
the ground that my 200ft coax lead-in picks up. I'm thinking of trying a
balanced line (oops, here we go again <G>) per John Andrew's suggestion, in
order to eliminate this pickup ......so the need for the amplifier goes
away.

Dear LF Group,

Thanks for the reports on the Jason signals, glad to see that more people 
are having success with this mode. Also, thanks to Steinar for my first 
report from Norway. It looks like the recent spate of solar activity has 
messed up propagation, though.

I had a bit of a problem with the TX last night; I noticed the output was 
fluctuating intermittently, which has been caused by corona on the antenna 
in the past. But after spending some time out in the rain, I could see 
nothing unusual. Eventually, it turned out that the problem was due to the 
synthesizer frequency jumping around, and for the last hour or so I used a 
different signal source. Fortunately, it does not seemed to have prevented 
people copying the signal. The problem with the synthesizer eventually 
turned out to be a wire in the PSU that someone had forgotten to solder on, 
but had been more or less making a contact for the last 20 years!

I will give the beacon a rest tonight; if anybody would like to try 
different times and/or frequencies, please let me know.

Cheers, Jim Moritz

--------------------------------

I had QSYed up from 73kHz and was going to transmit QRSS (well did for a
short while on 137.32)
and noticed a big signal on 137.5.
I didn't have a copy of Jason so I loaded the latest edition and it worked
perfectly first time, within 20mins of installation.
That's how S/W should work!
Jim's signal was very large so I reduced it by first switching over to the
HF minibeam then switching in first the AIP then 20dBs of attenuation. Still
perfect copy.

I returned the receiver to full sensitivity and switched the antenna out
altogether (at the antenna selector coax switch) I received a signal with
lots of errors but got a full call M0BMU.

I then went back to the minibeam and reduced sensitivity described above and
further reduced the signal while monitoring it in Argo. It appeared that
Jason works very well, no matter how weak, provided it is not corrupted by
noise. The QRN was not too bad last night but there was a lot of spurious
stuff from the Luxemburg effect. Under these conditions last night Jason
performed better than QRSS3 but not quite as well as QRSS10 in terms
readability.

Another impressive bit of SW Alberto.

Peter, G3LDO

Hello LF_Group!

I am planning to be active from Machta (KN97LN) Dec 27-28

The prospective time-table of my activity on LF on days
and on hours (time in UTC):
(at KN97LN Sunset abt 1340, Sunrise 0510z)
(freq my day's Beacon test 137.700)

DEC 27:
1300 - 1700 RX ZL6QH beacon test
1730 - .... QRS3 137.700 or CW 136.6 (look also in QRS10

DEC 28-29:
0500 - 1500  QRS3/CW 1w ERP Beacon test ("RU6LA 1W")
(Probably I once again shall RX ZL6QH test)
1500 - .... QRS3 137.700 or CW 136.6
OFF

I have a DX-cluster.
Also it is possible to inform me abt Report to pager(all time with
me) via e-mail:
e-mail: vesso@crypt.rnd.ru  Subject: 29600  In body: text

The equipment same as well as in Nov 6-10:
Ant TX - Big Vertical , PA - 100w Output, TS-850,
Ant RX - 1km BV (Dec 27 after 1700 without terminated resistance and
direction to ZL <-> West Eu, Dec 28 - direction to West Eu)

Now I discuss in RussianDX_List an opportunity of my trip to Asian UA.
While there are offers from UA9F, UA9W, UA9O and UA0A. Up to West Europe it
is all abt 4000 - 6000km
As soon as I shall choose As UA QTH and all will be ready, I shall inform
about my As UA DX-pedition in RSGB_LF_List.
I saw in G3YXM Dave's Noticeboard msg by OK1SIP. Probably he too reads
RussianDX_list

Merry Christmas & HNY !

73! Ed  RU6LA  ed@dx.ru

Hi Jim & LF,

Thanks again Jim for the instructions using JASON, I was able to receive
your transmission last night (screen shot attached). Although I was able to
hear your signal I still feel very excited about receiving in that mode for
the first time.

The checks I made following your advice made me realise how mis-aligned my
receiver (Yeasu FT747GX) was, so I spent some time yesterday afternoon
carrying out re-alignment & managed to achieve an error of no more than 2 Hz
in the USB, LSB & CW modes using the test equipment available to me. The
transceiver needs to switched on for at least an hour to reach best
frequency stability, so little by little I am refining the station for
operation on 136 Khz, Unfortunately a little accident building the
transmitter has left me without one of the main components & the supplier is
out of stock until mid January.

I will be interested (as I am sure others will be) to see the results of the
transmission here on LF e-mail.

Regards

Gary  G4WGT

I hope to run the beacon from 2200 - 0300 utc, and frequency will be
137.500kHz
again. Any reports will be very welcome.

You might be surprised what your local library can do for you.

Hi All, there was a geomag storm (Kp=5) today in the early morning, so It
may be that John has some noise increase? The plot from SXV is not looking
too good so far to night but I dont really know how to interpret it. Last
nights suggested that absorption was setting in already. ...Sooooo any
results tonight will be interesting.

A CME from the M2.7 flare on Thursday is due (acc. to NOAA)  to arrive
tomorrow to keep the ionosphere "bubbling" This could be three storms in 4
days, so the outlook is declining.

Good Luck all
Cheers de Alan G3NYK

Hi Peter I guess the best place would be the IEE Library, they do chage but
I think will now take plastic. It used to be £8 for a non-member but it was
going up tp £10-50 I believe.......unless you can find a member to order it
for you !!
www.iee.org
and go to the library they have an excellent searchable index and it will
tell you whether it is in their vaults...if so you can order a copy to be
posted to you. I have found the service very good......errr unfortunately
I'm not a member....I'm a physicist and we dont have a nice facilty like
that!!

I apologise for this off subject question but I am not sure where else to
look.
I am trying to find a detailed description of the original experiments done
by Prof Uda on the parasitic element antenna now known as the Yagi. I have
one reference Proc. IRE, 16 715-740 June 1928 but don't know how to get at
it. Do you know of any other sources?

Heavy rain so I have had to postpone further 73kHz antenna tests for the
time being.
I will be transmitting on 137.3+ tonight (Sat) and tomorrow for QRSS
contacts.

I think Dex would appreciate a different frequency. Maybe he can suggest
one.

Hi group
Two QSO this morning :

M0BMU with a good signal (OK Jim for the power off, I ad a similar PB but
with a reset PC!)

F6BWO with a good signal (QRM at the end of QSO). It's my first QSO with a
French station on 137 KHz!

Dear LF Group,

I was half way through having a QRSS QSO with F5MAF this morning (signals 
from DK1IS and I5TGC were also visible) when suddenly all the power went 
off, and I was left with a depressing silence. The power company say 
supplies will be restored this afternoon at some stage. My apologies to 
Marc, hope we can work each other again soon.

Looking at http://www.lightningstorm.com/ls2/gpg/lex1/mapdisplay_free.jsp 
it seems that the thunderstorms in the US have finally died out for the 
time being, so I will run the Jason beacon again tonight, in the hope of 
catching some long-distance propagation before the ionosphere goes on 
strike (and assuming there is some electricity available by then!). I hope 
to run the beacon from 2200 - 0300 utc, and frequency will be 137.500kHz 
again. Any reports will be very welcome.

Cheers, Jim Moritz

Just to add my experience to this debate. when I had an Rx loop, before
the wind decided to take it away with itself, it was of the floating type.
The loop itself had 8 turns, 2-meter each side, connected only to a primary
winding of three turns on a toroid. No ground connection whatsoever.
The secondary had 16 turns, whose inductance needed about 1800 pF to be
resonated on 137 kHz, and was directly connected to the coax cable.
The coax into the shack provided 1200 of those 1800, the rest was
obtained with a variable capacitor in the shack, without any need for
remote tuning. The preamp, also in the shack, was just an FET source
follower to step down the high impedance of the parallel-tuned LC circuit
to the 50 ohm of the Rx.

I did not perform any formal tests, but sensitivity was very good, and
the local noise pick up very low.
My next loop will be similar to this, may be just two turns in the loop,
made with thicker wire.
Just my 2 cents.

<b>To All from PA0SE<br><br>

I read Jim's way of improving his QRSS reception by switching off the AGC
and turning all gains up so the audio distorted. However, my IC706 Mk1 has
the AGC on permanently (though the speed is switchable), and I take the
output from a fixed level point on the rear panel. I was trying to work out
how to drive the audio into distortion. This morning I worked out that I
should increase the input gain on my sound card to maximum and reduce the
Argo gain. This had a useful effect as the attached JPG shows - Before on
the left, After on the right.

For anyone who needs instructions, I right-clicked on the sound card icon on
my toolbar, selected Adjust Audio Properties (not Adjust Volume Controls -
these are outputs, not inputs) and in the Sound Recording area of the box,
clicked Volume, and turned the control to max. I am not sure how standard
these controls are, but I hope this helps someone. The adjustment is well
worth it.

Hi all,

today 21 December I tried to improve my PA. the cooling gave its 
spirit up. therefore I placed the PA out into the snow for a 
long-term test. attached was a dummy. I was on my second glass of beer 
when it slammed dreadfully loud outside.
 
ok. A well-known noise of MOSFETs breathing their lives out.

But then: 
A gang of children gathered around the PA. among them our six year old twins 
asking in reproachful voice:  It is ten days to new year`s eve. our shopkeeper 
has no "Boeller". From where did you get all the bangers (Boeller)?
 
lowfer`s Silvester! 

all readers a successful new year.

regards
Uwe/dj8wx

Seasons Greetrings To All!

KN4LF 7 Day Medium Frequency Radio Propagation Outlook #2002-37
Published 8:00 PM EST 02/12/20 For 02/12/21-02/12/27.

PROPAGATION-

Expect good domestic propagation conditions on east-west paths and fair on
north south paths in the northern hemisphere out to approximately 1050
miles.

Expect fair domestic propagation conditions on east-west paths and poor on
north south paths in the southern hemisphere out to approximately 1050
miles.


"High latitude" northern hemispheric (TA) Trans Atlantic, (TP) Trans Pacific
and cross equatorial propagation conditions in excess of approximately 3000
miles should be poor to fair.

"High latitude" southern hemispheric (TA) Trans Atlantic, (TP) Trans Pacific
and cross equatorial propagation conditions in excess of approximately 3000
miles should be poor.


"Mid latitude" northern hemisphere (TA) Trans Atlantic, (TP) Trans Pacific
and cross equatorial propagation conditions in excess of approximately 3000
miles should be fair.

"Mid latitude" southern hemisphere (TA) Trans Atlantic, (TP) Trans Pacific
and cross equatorial propagation conditions in excess of approximately 3000
miles should be fair.


"Low latitude" northern hemisphere (TA) Trans Atlantic, (TP) Trans Pacific
propagation conditions in excess of approximately 3000 miles should be fair
to good.

"Low latitude" southern hemisphere (TA) Trans Atlantic, (TP) Trans Pacific
propagation conditions in excess of approximately 3000 miles should be fair
to good.


QRN-

During the outlook period there will be "high" lightning induced QRN levels
in low latitude areas of the northern hemisphere due to proximity of the
Inter Tropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ).

Northern hemisphere mid latitude regions can expect "moderate to
occasionally high" lightning induced QRN tied to cold season thunderstorms,
cold/warm/occluded fronts and associated extra-tropical cold core low
pressure systems. These weather systems are currently being enhanced by the
moderate level El Nino ocean water temperature anomaly.

Northern hemisphere high latitude regions can expect "low to occasionally
moderate" lightning induced QRN tied to cold season thunderstorms,
cold/warm/occluded fronts and associated extra-tropical cold core low
pressure systems. These weather systems are currently being enhanced by the
moderate level El Nino ocean water temperature anomaly.


During the outlook period there will be "high" lightning induced QRN levels
in low latitude areas of the southern hemisphere tied to warm season
thunderstorms and tropical systems.

Southern hemisphere mid latitude regions can expect "moderate to high"
lightning induced QRN, tied to warm season thunderstorms and tropical
systems.

Southern hemisphere high latitude regions can expect "moderate" lightning
induced QRN, tied to warm season thunderstorms and tropical systems.


Here are some general guidelines concerning correlation of space weather and
propagation indices to actual expected HF/MF propagation conditions.

1.) Dropping indices numbers are better.

2.) Solar flux under 150 okay, under 100 better, 70 is best for E layer
multi hop.

2a.) For high frequencies (HF) solar flux of 100 is okay, 150 better, above
200 best.

3.) Solar flux of at least 100 for E valley-F layer ducting mechanism.

4.) Previous 24 hour Ap index under 10, under 7 for several days
consecutively is best.

5.) Previous 3 hour Kp index under 3 for mid latitude paths, under 2 for
high latitude paths, 0-1 for several days consecutively is best.

6.) Energetic protons no greater then 10 MeV (10+0) for 160/120 meters and
no greater then (10-1) on MF broadcast band.

7.) Background x-ray flux levels less than C2 for several days consecutively
for 160/120 meters and less then C1 for MF broadcast band.

8.) No current STRATWARM alert.

9.) IMF Bz with a negative sign, indicates a better chance of high latitude
path auroral absorption/unpredictable refraction or scattering of MF RF
signals, when the Kp is above 3.


SPACE WEATHER INDICES DURING THE PAST 7 DAY PERIOD, SPACE WEATHER INDICES
EXPECTED DURING THE 7 DAY OUTLOOK PERIOD AND EXPLANATIONS OF THEIR IMPACT ON
ANTICIPATED PROPAGATION CONDITIONS.


ENERGETIC PROTON FLUX-

During the previous 7 day period one elevated energetic proton flux event of
>10 MeV (10+0) occurred. This event reached a level of (10+1) on 02/12/19-20
and was associated with an M2.7 level proton flare that was released from
solar flare region 10229.

During the 7 day outlook period the probability of an elevated energetic
proton flux event >10 MeV (10+0) is placed at 30%.


An elevated energetic proton flux level greater then (10+0) on 160 meters
and greater then (10-1) on the medium frequency broadcast band creates
noticeably increased winter time day and year round night time D layer
absorption of medium wave frequencies, especially on high latitude
propagation paths but it can also negatively impact mid latitudes, depending
on the intensity of the event.

Elevated energetic proton events too small to be categorized as a Polar Cap
Absorption event (PCA) can still impact high and mid level medium frequency
propagation paths in the form of excessive D layer absorption. This fact is
still stubbornly opposed by some otherwise very knowledgeable space weather
physicists over dependent on high latitude threshold Riometer readings.

((((Note, high latitude medium frequency radio propagation paths can still
be disturbed for days and up to weeks, following the end of an official >10
MeV (10+0) proton event.))))


SOLAR FLUX-

During the previous 7 day period the daily solar flux levels ranged between
245 and 179.

During the outlook period the daily solar flux values should range between
approximately 200 and 160.


Elevated background X-ray flux levels can impact propagation of medium
frequency signals in a negative manner. Background X-ray flux levels of C1
or greater creates increased D-layer absorption of 160 and 120 meter signals
and B9 or greater creates increased D-layer absorption of AM broadcast band
signals.

High solar flux values are generally considered to be detrimental to
propagation of medium frequency signals both domestic and Trans Atlantic
(TA) & Trans Pacific (TP), as more absorption can be present via the
transmitted signals' two trips through the D layer at the takeoff and
arrival points.

Most "strong" longer haul medium frequency DX signals in excess of 3000
miles is via the E Valley-F layer ducting and/or Chordal Hop propagation
modes. Therefore high solar flux values can aid in long haul medium
frequency propagation paths in excess of 3000 miles, as a high solar flux
value ensures a strong F layer part of the E Valley-F layer duct or Chordal
Hop propagation mechanism.

However high solar activity in the form of increased ionization created by
Ultraviolet and X-Ray radiation can fill in the E Valley region and
interfere with the E Valley-F layer ducting mechanism. In a sense the E
Valley-F layer duct is closed on one or both ends of a propagation path and
the transmitted MF RF signal only propagates between the E layer and
land/ocean surface, with a higher angle and more loss.


SOLAR FLARES & SUNSPOT GROUP REGIONS-

During the previous 7 day period 7 M class solar flares occurred. The
largest was an M6.8 solar flare on 02/12/20 at 1318 UTC and was associated
with solar region 10226.

Sunspot region #10226 at S28W28 is in geo-effective (Earth facing) position,
contains a beta-gamma-delta class magnetic signature and harbors energy for
huge X class and large M class solar flares. Sunspot region #10224 at
S14W21, #10229 at N19W03, and #10230 at S08E32 contain a beta-gamma class
magnetic signatures and harbor energy for large M class solar flares.

Solar flare forecast during the seven day period.

C- 100%

M- 70%

X- 30%


A C4 or higher class solar flare "can" elevate the proton flux above 10 MeV
(10+0) and initiate large scale high and mid latitude propagation path
absorption on the AM broadcast band, 160 and 120 meters, both stateside and
DX, as a transfer of increased density and RF signal absorption from the day
side D layer to night side of the ionosphere occurs through high level
neutral winds. Unfortunately even smaller C3 solar flares can create hour to
hour and night to night variations in signal strength on medium frequencies.

High and mid latitude Trans Atlantic (TA) and Trans Pacific (TP) propagation
paths tend to open up after a significant period of time passes without an
elevated energetic proton event of >10 MeV (10+0). This fact is still
stubbornly opposed by some otherwise very knowledgeable space weather
physicists over dependent on high latitude threshold Riometer readings.

Openings also occur when the solar background x-ray level falls back to
below C2 for 160 and 120 meters and below C1 for the AM broadcast band.


CORONAL MASS EJECTIONS/IONOSPHERIC STORMS/VISIBLE AURORA-

During the previous 7 day period one geo-effective (Earth facing) Coronal
Mass Ejection occurred on 02/12/19 at 2200 UTC and was associated with an
M2.7 level proton flare that was released from solar flare region 10229.

During the previous 7 day period a small Coronal Hole had been in a
geo-effective (Earth facing) position. It's related Solar Wind Stream
impacted the (IMF), for a short period of time with a Kp index of 3
(unsettled).

A SHORT LIVED Kp spike of 4 (Active) to 5 (Minor Storm) occurred on
02/12/19-20 in association with the M2.7 level proton flare that was
released from solar flare region 10229.

During the outlook period no new geo-effective (Earth facing) Coronal Holes
and related Solar Wind Streams are expected to impact the (IMF).

During the outlook period the probability of a geo-effective (Earth facing)
Coronal Mass Ejection (CME) is placed at 50%.

During the outlook period the probability of unsettled (Kp-3) geomagnetic
conditions is placed at 100%.

During the outlook period the probability of active (Kp-4) geomagnetic
conditions is placed at 90%.

During the outlook period the probability of at least a minor ionospheric
storm (Kp-5)(G1) is placed at 80%.

During the outlook period the probability of at least a moderate ionospheric
storm (Kp-6)(G2) is placed at 70%.

During the outlook period the probability of at least a strong ionospheric
storm (Kp-7+)(G3+) is placed at 60%.

G5 = Extreme - Kp = 9
G4 = Severe - Kp = 8
G3 = Strong - Kp = 7
G2 = Moderate - Kp = 6
G1 = Minor - Kp = 5
Active - Kp = 4
Unsettled - Kp = 3

During the outlook period the probability of a visible high latitude Aurora
display is placed at 100%, mid latitude 60%.

On 02/12/20 at 2037 UTC the Bz was 4.5 nt south.

The Wang-Sheeley Interplanetary Magnetic Field (IMF) Model which predicts
the Sun's IMF polarity, forecasts a positive (+) polarity between
02/12/21-27.


When the polarity of the IMF is negative a visible mid latitude Aurora
display is likely when a CME strikes the Earth's magnetic field. When the
polarity of the IMF is positive a visible mid latitude Aurora display is
unlikely as a CME strikes the Earth's magnetic field.

A Geomagnetic or Ionospheric Storm is a worldwide disturbance of the earth's
magnestosphere induced by the Sun's interplanetary magnetic field (IMF),
distinct from regular diurnal variations.

A Coronal Mass Ejection is the name given to an ejection of a large amount
of matter from the Sun's outer atmosphere or corona. These ejections
typically comprise millions of tons of material in the form of charged
particles, and can be seen because the material reflects sunlight. When one
of these ejections is directed towards the Earth (or conversely, directly
away from the Earth), it looks like a roughly circular "halo" surrounding
the Sun.

The "Halo CME's" then are those CME's which are more likely to impact the
Earth than those which are shot out at right angles to the Earth-Sun line.
Energetic protons emitted during CME's play a major role in increased day
time and night-time D-layer absorption of mediumwave frequencies.

Coronal Mass Ejections were once thought to be completely initiated by solar
flares. However it is now known that many (CME's) are not associated with
Solar Flares. If a (CME) collides with the Earth, it can excite a
Geomagnetic Storm if the polarity of the IMF has a negative sign. We must be
vigilant in watching for geoeffective (CME's), in order to not be caught by
surprise with a seemingly sudden and unexpected Geomagnetic Storm.

As the Kp index reaches 3-4, the aurora oval begins expanding equatorward in
magnetic latitude and generally begins having a negative impact on high
latitude medium frequency propagation paths. A Kp index of 5 or higher
begins to have a negative impact on high latitude high frequency shortwave
propagation paths. However at times skewed path propagation conditions can
compensate for high latitude propagation path auroral absorption.


STRATOSPHERIC WARMING-

During the outlook period increased winter like day and year round night
time D layer absorption of medium frequency signals tied to stratospheric
warming in the northern hemisphere is possible, due to a large scale
movement of Arctic air across the North Pole from Siberian Russia into
Canada.

In the nearer term of 7-14 days we will return to a negative North Atlantic
Oscillation (NAO) and Positive West Negative East (PNA) upper air height
anomaly pattern. This means a big ridge in the west all the way into the
Yukon region of Canada and a deep trough in the eastern U.S.down into the
Yucatan region of Mexico and another ridge in the western North Atlantic
Ocean. This pattern is also called a dual blocking ridge. This pattern taps
Siberian Arctic air across the North Pole and sends it rushing south,
increasing the chances of stratospheric warming.


As the stratosphere lies below the ionosphere, which is at mesosphere and
thermosphere height, you would not expect to see stratospheric warming
effect medium frequency propagation in any way BUT medium frequency signals
do propagate off of temperature inversions and moisture discontinuities and
a temperature inversion is involved with stratospheric warming. So it's
probable that a medium frequency signal could do any number of things when
scattering off of a temperature inversion, at any height. Unfortunately
though some otherwise very knowledgeable Physicists stubbornly resist this
concept.

Also stratospheric warming (STRATWARM) has a negative effect on medium
frequency propagation, due to increasing medium frequency radio wave
absorption by the D layer, via upward propagating Internal Gravity Waves
(IGW).

This phenomenon also occurs in southern hemisphere winter but seems to be
less pronounced.

I am aware that coverage surveys of LF and MF AM transmitters do not conduct
field strength measurements in locations near power lines, as they otherwise
get false readings.  For amateur LF receiving, much of the QRM is associated
with power lines and connected appliances, so consideration of conduction,
induction and radiation is needed to analyse scenarios.

In my view the specific location of a loop receiving antenna, suitably
separated from mains wiring, has far more impact on weak signal performance
than whether it is unbalanced, partly balanced, floating, or well-balanced.
Near fields reduce rapidly with distance (and different rate for E and H
component), while radiated (far) fields are basically inverse with distance,
so the differential distance with respect to the DX wanted signal is
negligible within the choice of options for siting a loop receiving antenna.
The LF far field is also vertically polarised.

The side-on null of a small loop receiving antenna is only effective in
reducing QRM for "point source" emissions.  The actual near field situation
is that mains wires are the launching mechanism, so the mode of coupling can
be modelled on a "line source".  A deep null is of little use in minimising
coupling with a "line source".

The size of the loop is also a compromise between being sufficiently small
to maintain useful separation from local QRM sources (induction coupling),
while being sufficiently large so that QRN (external fields) dominate
thermal noise (internal noise).  A square shape with 2 metres each side
appears to be about right for the LF bands of interest to amateurs.

73, Bob ZL2CA

Hi all, to my mind conditions have been reasonable for the last week or so.
I have had some very confusing plots from SXV during this period. Last night
I had good solid high levels from SXV with very little sign of multipath.
There was a geomag storm on the 19th at around midday. I would not expect
that to start giving absorption before 21/22nd

I think that I may have been seeing a lot of destructive interference
previously but maybe last night there was more absorption taking down the
high-hop paths. The only thing that might be connected to this is a small
proton event again at midnight, but again this would not be in impact with
the correct geographical part of the ionosphere. (too far west)

In conclusion I think propagation might be ok tonight but will decline
afterwards for a few days. Unfortunately electric storms in east USA will
probably cancel out the advantageous propagation. Not too helpful but I
would be interested to see Steve's plots on DCF39 on that side to see
whether it conforms to my thoughts.

Happy DXing and Cheers de Alan G3NYK

Hi Jim & LF Group,

Thank you for your reply Jim, I have got JASON sorted now since reading your
instructions, I have been able to determine my offset almost exactly now &
can see the single trace in the JASON display when using DCF39 & other
signals as a test source.

I have attenuated various signals until the audio is completely unreadable
by ear & still the line is there but with a very slight background
illumination creeping in. I have been able to hear your CW QSO's in the
recent past so I should now be able to decode your JASON transmissions.

My location is the village of Coppull near Chorley, Lancashire. IO87qp.

Thanks for your help & congrats to you & all the others involved in making
the T/A trip possible.

Regards

Gary  G4WGT.

First, use the "options" menu to set Jason up to match your receiver - if
you are using USB, set Jason to USB receive; if you are using LSB, set
Jason to LSB. Set the Jason receive centre frequency to be equal to the RX
BFO offset - it defaults to 800Hz. Set the RX gain and/or PC volume control
to produce about 1/3 full scale on the bar graph at the left of the Jason
screen with the normal signal/noise level at the RX
output...............................................................

Based on the wx, tonight would be a poor choice for me, and probably for

I would like to try some transatlantic 136kHz tests. My QRP 100mW ERP has
been seen by VE1ZJ, but it would be nice to get to the USA. Obviously this
will require very good conditions. It would help if John, Dex and anyone
else could say when they think the chances are good. I can transmit at short
notice.

 I have had good results with an ordinary (unbalanced) air-core loop of 10'
diameter. Nulls are approaching 50 db on groundwave signals. The loop uses a
standard single-turn pickup loop out to the rx via 50 ohm coax. I agree with
Jan that a preamp is of no value once your limiting noise floor is
background sky/atmospheric noise. For those interested, construction plans
for my 10-footer are here:  http://www.imagenisp.ca/jsm/Loop.html

Dear LF Group,

I think what Jan-Martin is saying is that by having a grounded center tap 
on the windings of a loop antenna, you are effectively producing an 
integrated 1:1 balun transformer, which forces the voltages on the loop to 
be balanced, even if the output is single-ended. However, the balun effect 
will not be entirely perfect because the coupling between the loop windings 
is less than unity. But then, neither will a balanced preamp be perfectly 
balanced. An advantage of a push-pull type of balanced preamp is that it 
will give some cancellation of distortion products, but it's fair to say 
this can be achieved in other ways too.

As far as I can see, the balanced, tuned loop with push-pull preamp has 
changed little  since the 1920s, except the bright-emitter triodes are 
normally replaced with JFETs in modern designs :-) The idea then was to 
produce an antenna with accurate and deep nulls in the MF range for 
direction finding. By making the circuit physically and electrically 
balanced, a symmetrical directional pattern was produced. It is a bit 
different with an LF receiving loop, where the precision of direction 
finding is usually less important than achieving high sensitivity, with 
adequate nulling of unwanted signals. Also, especially where larger 
diameter loops with relatively low inductance are used, the "antenna 
effect" does not seem to be a very serious problem. The effect of the E 
field pick up will be 1) to make the positions of the nulls asymetrical, 2) 
if there is a quadrature component between the two induced voltages, the 
depth of the nulls will be reduced, and 3) if local nose generates a 
localised E field, the antenna will pick this up. For simple reception, 1) 
is of little consequence, 2) in practice is not very bad - I find I can 
usually get >25dB null even with no attempt at balancing, and the depth of 
null is usually limited by how accurately the antenna can be positioned. I 
also find that since local noise tends to be at least as much H field as E 
field, 3) is not really an issue either.

I also find that external effects affect the depth of null you get - in my 
field strength measuring experiments, I found some locations where there 
was almost no null - This seemed to occur near overhead wires and power 
lines, which were presumably acting as parasitic antennas, inducing signals 
in the loop.

Cheers, Jim Moritz

it was an article by W7ZOI in QST sometime in the early 80's for a dipper 
using a signal generator. I tested the principle for 3-100MHz, but it is no
reason why it shouldn't work on lower frequency. You probably need only 10 turns
with 2cm diameter (or few turns with large diameter) for the coupling loop.
LB8X also tested the circuit with MFJ259 and it seems to operate even with simpler
arrangement than mine

Have made some documents, and have the reference at home, but unfortunately the
reflector is subscribed for the work email address, instead of home...

Hi All at LF,

Just been browsing LF web sites & on looking at the Longwave Club of America
home page there is a reference to an article as shown below.

**************

The LOWDOWN This Month. In the Dec. 2002 issue:

"Gate Dip Oscillator for the LowFER and MedFER" Article by George N.
McCormick.

**************

Has anyone got details of this LF GDO or something similar for use at 136
Khz as it seems to me that an exsisting HF GDO would require extensive
modifications to allow it to operate at this low frequency. I have an
Eddystone S902 GDO which goes down to 390 Khz but the coil arrangement seems
complex in respect of extending the range to 136 Khz.

Any ideas are welcome.

May I also add my congratulations to those already posted for the JASON T/A
reception of Jim's transmission by John.

I tried monitoring but did not receive anything intelligable, may be I
require more tries to get it right ?? as I am not sure of the best method of
setting up the receiver frequency etc for use with JASON. Any advice gents ?

Regards

Gary  G4WGT

Can't see any arguments against my version. But apart from telling that you disagree,
you don't give any related reasons.

I already agree to the balance, but using a balanced amplifier for a balanced 
antenna is only amateur nonsense.
 
And using the amplifier is nonsense when it doesn't improve for anything -
only increase an already strong enough signal. The only argument is that it is
more complex, and it is worth some money if you sell it.

My loop has center grounded, it is at least necessary for the varicap tuning, 
and I use a coupling loop of 1/100 of the totalt antenna area

Emne: RE: LF: Big vs small RX antennas


 
I don't buy this. The reason for the balanced connection (or center tap) to
the loop is to reduce the so called 'antenna effect'. Without the balance
the antenna will be sensitive to the E-field of the intended signal as well
as all the other unwanted signals and noise in the area, coming from all
directions. Also, the desired null off the side, typically 40db for a well
balanced loop, will be greatly reduced if the loop is connected simply to
one side.
 
One common way to achieve a 'balance' is to isolate the tuned winding from
the input to the amplifier with a one or two turn isolated pickup winding. A
ferrite core can also be used that couples one turn from the main winding to
the amplifier or receiver. John Andrews uses this approach. I call both of
these a 'floating connection' rather than a balanced connection', but they
achieve the same thing because neither is effected by E-field signals.

I guess we're all idiots for using loops. It was even windy when Steve
captured my 1-watt signal in Arizona 1302 miles away the other night.

Well, I guess I'll give up the LF stuff, as I'll never hear anything. Thanks
for setting me straight. It looked like an interesting hobby.

In my case the 120 ft vertical top loaded system, comprising 4 inv L
structures resonated on 136 khz is a good 12 db better at receiving signals
than my 90 metre perimiter loop resonated also on 136 khz and top wire
height 70 ft. I am comparing signals from the loop in its optimum direction.
E/W. Both systems are configured for 50 ohms match to the RX.
I live out in the countryside and noise is not a problem. Some are getting
confused and discussing the merits of a vertical against a loop in noisy or
Urban environments. I am discussing the two antennas in a noise friendly
area, and as someone has pointed out loops also pick up quite a lot of noise
depending on your location.
The only loop worth while is a full wave loop at the frequency of operation,
the smaller you get in relation to natural resonance the less the capture
ability and more critical the tuning, and going off resonance with the
slightest movement by wind, rain etc, so it is seldom optimum at the
required frequency except you happen to live in Dixie or Texas where the sun
always shines!!

very good report in IO94SH , 1447 Km away, yes it's very rare that someone 
answer to my CQ call at this time in the evening. It's easier in the morning of 
Sunday when a lot of stations are in action hi. Recently I've contacted two 
times Reino OH5UFO with very good signals. As you can see in my web site, my 
antenna is very small and my ERP also, I believe in the order of 20 - 30 mW, so 
I need the aid of propagation hi. I hear time to time your CW signal in my 
receiver, in spite of the noise that I've here. Thank you again for report&nbsp;

I checked with your original e-mail description and found that I had got it
all wrong. Still nothing lost, I had wanted to try and see if increasing the
spacing of the two wire top load from an average of 2m to 4m would change
anything. In the event it did not.  I will be transmitting tonight as part
of my antenna current puzzle measurements on 72.4003. At this time the
ground has dried out and the antenna current at 1600 was 4.9 amps, which
fell to 4.1 amps by 1930

I am interested in Dexter's loop. My 4m square loop (described in the web
page below) uses a single turn coupling turn and coax back to the receiver.
It works reasonably well having been used in a 'reverse' T/A 136/80m
crossband in Feb 2001 with VE1ZZ but he had a very big signal. What preamp
circuit did you use Dex?

As regards using big antennas on LF, many operators using a temporary big
mast had problems on receive. Big antennas seem OK provided a variable
attenuator and a good passive preselecter are used.

Peter, G3LDO

First, use the "options" menu to set Jason up to match your receiver - if 
you are using USB, set Jason to USB receive; if you are using LSB, set 
Jason to LSB. Set the Jason receive centre frequency to be equal to the RX 
BFO offset - it defaults to 800Hz. Set the RX gain and/or PC volume control 
to produce about 1/3 full scale on the bar graph at the left of the Jason 
screen with the normal signal/noise level at the RX output.

The only other thing is making sure the received frequency is correct. It 
needs to be within about +/- 1Hz to guarantee not missing any part of the 
signal. Typical amateur-type synthesised receivers will probably be within 
a couple of Hz of nominal frequency at LF - the PC sound card may add 
several Hz more error. To calibrate out both these errors, set Jason to 
receive, and tune to a known carrier signal close to the 136k band - DCF39 
on 138.830kHz should do. This should produce a clear line on the waterfall 
display (in between the data bursts, anyway). If this is not centered 
between the yellow cursor lines, click on the signal trace, and Jason 
should adjust it's centre frequency automatically. Then leave all the 
software settings as they are, and re-tune the RX to the Jason signal 
frequency - it should now work :-)

If the Jason signal is strong enough to be clearly visible on the waterfall 
display, you can skip the calibration step and click on the centre of the 
visible trace to set the frequency correctly. Not sure what your QTH is, 
Gary, but I imagine it should also be easy to hear my signal, which sounds 
like a steady carrier with very slight frequency shifts.

I don't buy this. The reason for the balanced connection (or center tap) to
the loop is to reduce the so called 'antenna effect'. Without the balance
the antenna will be sensitive to the E-field of the intended signal as well
as all the other unwanted signals and noise in the area, coming from all
directions. Also, the desired null off the side, typically 40db for a well
balanced loop, will be greatly reduced if the loop is connected simply to
one side.
 
One common way to achieve a 'balance' is to isolate the tuned winding from
the input to the amplifier with a one or two turn isolated pickup winding. A
ferrite core can also be used that couples one turn from the main winding to
the amplifier or receiver. John Andrews uses this approach. I call both of
these a 'floating connection' rather than a balanced connection', but they
achieve the same thing because neither is effected by E-field signals.

Well, I guess I'll give up the LF stuff, as I'll never hear anything. Thanks
for setting me straight. It looked like an interesting hobby.

Laurie,

Even if propagation was excellent I would not be able to copy your
signal with the major QRN generator we presently have.

Last nights HBG plot:

http://www.w4dex.com/75khz/hbg19dec02.jpg  shows the S/N to be about
zero.

The reason for the noise can be seen at:

http://www.w4dex.com/75khz/lightning19dec02.jpg

Hopefully this will clear by the weekend.  Rest and drink lots of
fluids.  Also an occasional dose of near field LF RF may help.

Well, I guess I'll give up the LF stuff, as I'll never hear anything. Thanks
for setting me straight. It looked like an interesting hobby.

In my case the 120 ft vertical top loaded system, comprising 4 inv L
structures resonated on 136 khz is a good 12 db better at receiving signals
than my 90 metre perimiter loop resonated also on 136 khz and top wire
height 70 ft. I am comparing signals from the loop in its optimum direction.
E/W. Both systems are configured for 50 ohms match to the RX.
I live out in the countryside and noise is not a problem. Some are getting
confused and discussing the merits of a vertical against a loop in noisy or
Urban environments. I am discussing the two antennas in a noise friendly
area, and as someone has pointed out loops also pick up quite a lot of noise
depending on your location.
The only loop worth while is a full wave loop at the frequency of operation,
the smaller you get in relation to natural resonance the less the capture
ability and more critical the tuning, and going off resonance with the
slightest movement by wind, rain etc, so it is seldom optimum at the
required frequency except you happen to live in Dixie or Texas where the sun
always shines!!

Matti,

Just to save Jim the time to look up that error code again here below is
what he sent when I was working on my unit.  Also some test codes from
Tracey.

Thank you very much Jim for SPM-19 input impedance info.
Sometimes I get error message 1--202, which disappears when I change

Hi all, I have taken the chance to plot Steve's log of DCF39 signal strength
in a similar format to my DCF39 plots. It shows some similarity to the old
CFH plots I used to collect, and suggests that T/A conditions are quite
reasonable at the moment. It is about three weeks since the last geomagnetic
storm, and the highest Kp in the last two weeks has been an occasional 4. As
a .GIF this will hopefully just get through the reflector.

Dear Stewart, LF Group,

A simple experimental test that could be easily done would be to compare 
the signals from HBG on 75kHz and DCF77 on 77.5kHz - both these signals 
would fit into the bandwidth of an SSB filter, and could be simultaneously 
monitored using Spectrum Lab.

Hello Jos&eacute;:
<p>thank you for your report of Dec. 18, 2145 UTC - with 1686 km its a
new one-way-odx for me! I called with 200 W RF on my 13-m-Marconi. Condx
seemed to be good but I think everyone was still tired from the thrilling
T/A tests ...
<p>Looking forward to a two-way-contact!

No. Sorry if I was unclear. I have three top wires, 18m long, running
parallel and spaced 0.5m apart. The wires have always been joined at the far
end, and this helps reduce the corona losses. I also had them joined at the
feed end, next to the elevated loading coil at the top of the vertical
section. What I did was to disconnect the join at the feed end, so that the
coil fed just the centre wire. The current then went along this centre wire
to the join at the far end, and returned along the two outer wires. This is
what increased the resonant frequency when I would have expected the extra L
in the top wires to decrease the frequency. I have concluded that the
shorting wire close to the coil was probably having a capacitive effect on
the coil and reducing the overall frequency. Whether the top wires are
electrically in parallel or series seems to make no difference at all.

The first 136 kHz US receptions of G3AQC and M&Oslash;BMU made nearly two
years ago were made with my 160 meter dipole.&nbsp;&nbsp; The dipole is
supported with a 1 meter side arm from the 95 foot level of a 100 foot,
insulated guy wire tower.&nbsp; The home brew open wire feed line was fed
as a single wire with a series pot core inductor to bring the antenna to
resonance.&nbsp; Later test were made comparing the TA signals received
with this antenna to a 3.3 square resonant loop.&nbsp; This loop was matched
with a single turn pick up loop.&nbsp; The two antennas were comparable
for 136 kHz reception most of the time.
<p>Last year I constructed a new receive loop, octagon in shape, twenty
turns, a little over 3.3 meters diameter.&nbsp; This loop is center tapped
and feeds a balanced preamp.&nbsp; Every comparison I made showed this
balanced fed loop to outperform either the old loop or the T vertical wire.&nbsp;
I'm a firm believer in the balanced loop design.

<BR>
A big vertical does help a lot against local noise-sources (neighbours' TVs and SMPSs), but with anything originating further away than a couple of 100m, it makes absolutely no difference.<BR>
<BR>
However the directivity provided by a magnetic receive loop can be valuable. If all of the noise was coming in isotropically from the horizon, the figure-eight pattern would theoretically have 3dB better SNR than a vertical, and a cardioid combination would gain 4.8dB. In practice, of course one can often null out a source of QRM or a thunderstorm front and have far greater improvement.<BR>
<BR>
The only problem I am having with small loops is that they seem to be much more prone to local pickup than the E-field antenna - at least in my suburban area which has underground mains wiring. The 86cm-diameter pair in the garden is often swamped by notorious 100Hz-modulated carriers which at the same time I can hardly see on the marconi.<BR>

First of all congratulations to Jim and John for another 'first'.
Congrats also Alberto and Vittorio for their excellent S/W and its success
in this experiment.

I am still plugging away at trying to find the cause of the cyclic variation
of my antenna current on 72kHz

Also tried a change in the antenna configuration. Mike, G3XDV, found that
connecting the wires at the far end of his capacity top reduced the antenna
current. My antenna has always had the ends of the capacity top connected at
the far end so I tried disconnecting them. I also tried spacing them further
apart to 2m. The result - it didn't make the slightest difference that I
could measure!

The new structure required two insulators instead of one. I normally use one
of PA0SE's excellent ceramic insulators but two were a bit too heavy. I
tried making insulators out of high pressure blue plastic water pipe and
this seems to stand up to the high voltages quite well. Mind you, if they do
start arcing across due to salt encrustation from the sea they will probably
catch fire!

Peter, G3LDO

Belated congratulations to all concerned. A really excellent performance.
 I looked at Jims signal last night as he started and it was terrific.
Everything had been just left from the previous night and shortly after I
switched on - without doing anything else - an S9 signal appeared on the
meter of the TS850 and in the Jason window .  It was Jim, genuinely S9, so I
wished good luck on the test, switched off again & went to earn some
domestic credits to bank against future operations.

Full of admiration and envy,

73 de

Ian.

Hi Steve and all,

I suspect that these propagation peaks that last two hours
or more are accompanied by relatively stable phase delay.
If so, coherent detection using a carrier recovered by
e.g. an hour's integration should be feasible.

Is it known if the transmission from DBF39 is stable enough
to measure path delay changes?  If it is, do you have a way
to record phase variations?

73,

Stewart KK7KA

Think how clearly you'd be able to hear the noise :-)

Greetings,

Firstly, may I add my heartiest congratulations on this 'Jason' first, to
Jim, John and the conceivers and developers of the mode, especially
Alberto.

Quietly, in the hope of eventually turning this into something more
useful, I've been recording DBF39's strength using DL4YHF's
excellent Spectrum Lab software.  Below is the take encompassing
last night's success.  The most useful data column is the first, being
the peak detected signal.  Following that are an on-frequency
average (within 1Hz bandwidth) and that of an adjacent 1Hz slice.

It is relative only, uncalibrated in absolute signal level as yet.
Empirically, anything bigger than about -26dB is ear'ole copy.  Of
note is that a few hours later than John's reception, between 0400
and 0600, DBF reached a few dB louder.  Indeed as big as I have on 
record so far.

        Again, well done!

                Steve        W3EEE

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I have a KW204 TX made by KW Electronics, Dartford, 
Kent. It could be modified for LF but I need the pin out connections for the 
sockets on the back. One socket is female Octal, the other is female 12 pin 
socket. It would appear some of these pins need to be connected to work. Any 
help appreciated, it was made around 1970 and not unlike some of the Collins S 
line equipment. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>It would also make a nice driver for a LF

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Jim is an old hand with modes other than qrs for 
across the pond reports, like 7fsk and wolf. Whether they totally fulfilled the 
QSO criteria with a complete callsign I don't know. If Jason is making it across 
then so should normal hand sent CW as I have always predicted. Just think what 
could be achieved with 1200 watts, a 100 ft vertical antenna resonated 
on&nbsp;136 khz &nbsp;and a similar antenna at the receiving end instead of 
small loops or 3 feet active type antennas. </FONT></DIV>

especially during the winter period. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Go for the all mode award g/tor, p/tor,amtor, psk31

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Those of us&nbsp;with commercial experience in both

Hi All at LF,

Just been browsing LF web sites & on looking at the Longwave Club of America
home page there is a reference to an article as shown below.

**************

The LOWDOWN This Month. In the Dec. 2002 issue:

"Gate Dip Oscillator for the LowFER and MedFER" Article by George N.
McCormick.

**************

Has anyone got details of this LF GDO or something similar for use at 136
Khz as it seems to me that an exsisting HF GDO would require extensive
modifications to allow it to operate at this low frequency. I have an
Eddystone S902 GDO which goes down to 390 Khz but the coil arrangement seems
complex in respect of extending the range to 136 Khz.

Any ideas are welcome.

May I also add my congratulations to those already posted for the JASON T/A
reception of Jim's transmission by John.

I tried monitoring but did not receive anything intelligable, may be I
require more tries to get it right ?? as I am not sure of the best method of
setting up the receiver frequency etc for use with JASON. Any advice gents ?

Regards

Gary  G4WGT

Dear LF Group,

Thanks for all the messages re last night's activity. According to the 
lightning activity maps, there seem to be large thunderstorms drifting 
around the central USA at the moment, so it looks like a noisy night on 
136k again. So I will take a break from the Jason beacon activity tonight, 
and try again later in the week.

I would like to get some more DX reports with Jason - If anyone has any 
preferences for frequencies other than 137.500kHz, or other ideas for 
improvements, please let me know.

Cheers, Jim Moritz

Hello to the Group:

I also received the Jim´s successful beacon test transmission.
Congratulations!

It´s the third time I decode Jason signals with V0.94, but I´ve seen that
exists another release, is that available??

Dear LF Group,

Very pleased that Jason has made it across the pond - thanks to W1TAG for 
the reception, and also to I2PHD, I2CZL and KK7KA for the software 
development. The actual message was "M0BMU M0BMU JASON 95 IO91VR", repeated 
endlessly. I was running 1.2kW into a 13m high inverted V, giving about 5A 
antenna current - in the past, field strength measurements put the ERP of 
this set-up at almost exactly 1W. (incidentally, in last night's frost, 
loss/ground/system resistance was down 15% on the previous night...)

G0MRF wrote: ...Not only the first Jason reception but also the first mode 
other than QRSS to cross the pond. ..
Not quite - nearly a year ago, several people copied my "7FSK" tests - 
sometimes much to their annoyance! Also, the previous year, W1TAG copied 
one of the WOLF tests - it seems John and myself currently have the 
monopoly on Transatlantic LF digital modes :-)

Regarding possible use for T/A QSOs, each character (including the spaces) 
lasts about 24 seconds in Jason - so the kind of minimal QSOs being 
discussed at the moment could be executed within 30 minutes with solid copy 
both ways. Of course, last night's conditions did not give perfect copy - 
but looking at John's screen shot, it was not actually far off doing so 
over at least 1 half hour period. I am confident under good conditions, 
Jason would be a viable 2-way transatlantic mode. A nice feature of Jason 
is that it is not too fussy about the frequency - assuming you are going 
for "blind" reception, ie. you are not adjusting the tuning in response to 
a received signal, I think about +/- 1Hz accuracy would be adequate to get 
the whole signal within the yellow lines on the Jason waterfall.

Cheers, Jim Moritz

Thanks. And Albert and Vittorio do deserve thanks from all of us who use
their excellent (and free!) software.

The best results in decoding Jim's signal have been with the KK7A decoder
and the "Hendrixiser." So thanks also go out to Stewart Nelson and Jimi
Hendrix.

Dave,

>Not only the first Jason reception but also the first mode other than QRSS
to cross the pond. <

Uh... not so! I copied Jim in WOLF mode in March, 2001. Since I've also seen
him in QRSS mode, this makes the third variety from his garden. However, it
is the most significant, as tests with the Lowfers over here have shown WOLF
to be similarly effective to QRSS60. Jason appears to be closer to QRSS10.

>I'm sure all your hard work finding the right propagation and co-ordination
between you will encourage those who hope that the path can one day be
spanned with standard CW. <

I think we're more than a few dB short.

How important was your ability to accurately set frequency John? Is there an
acceptable margin of error with Jason 95?

Jason is very forgiving in that regard, as it works on the DIFFERENCE
between the tones. An error of a few Hz would not be a problem.

John Andrews, W1TAG

Congratulations John and Jim!

John, you were not without competition but my Jason had both hands tied
behind his back.  I have a strong signal dead on 137.500 and the QRN
sounds like a summer evening here.

The HBG plot shows a good peak from 2300 to 0100 UT but took a 15 db
dive by 0200.

In what I believe is the first transatlantic LF Jason reception, I was
greeted with the following when I returned home tonight:

http://webpages.charter.net/w1tag/files/BMU-JAS.jpg

I'm not sure that Jim's whole message appears intact in one place. I'll let
him decide that, as I only have a rough idea of what was being sent.

The above was captured between 2230 and 0200 on the evening of 17-18
December. Best copy was after 0000. Conditions were excellent, much quieter
than the previous nights. I have a .wav file of the 2300 - 0200 period, and
will be tweaking it for possible better copy.

In what I believe is the first transatlantic LF Jason reception, I was
greeted with the following when I returned home tonight:

http://webpages.charter.net/w1tag/files/BMU-JAS.jpg

I'm not sure that Jim's whole message appears intact in one place. I'll let
him decide that, as I only have a rough idea of what was being sent.

The above was captured between 2230 and 0200 on the evening of 17-18
December. Best copy was after 0000. Conditions were excellent, much quieter
than the previous nights. I have a .wav file of the 2300 - 0200 period, and
will be tweaking it for possible better copy.

John Andrews, W1TAG

Dave,

Too late, I have just refinanced my house, but how about forwarding the 
other offers ?

Hi Jim and all,

Well, I admit to not having any solid data on the subject,
and was hoping to get some feedback from the propagation
experts here.

The HBG signal would not be used to predict the absolute
phase of G3AQC, but only changes in the propagation delay.
The quadrature signal from G3AQC would be rotated according
to the received HBG phase, and the resulting complex signal
integrated.  The final decode would be performed based
on the phase recovered from the integrated result.  How
this is done would depend on the modulation used; for CW,
choosing the angle with maximum total energy would probably
be adequate.  So the phase only has to roughly track, most
of the time.  If you are off by, say, 30 degrees, that's
just a 1.25 dB loss.

There will occasionally be huge phase discrepancies, when
one signal is nearly canceled because two effective paths
are roughly 180 degrees apart.  But I believe that there
would be good correlation most of the time.

Errors in caused by the frequency difference would be
minimized if G3AQC could transmit closer to HBG.
I am ignorant of both the law and QRM sources on this
band.  An old page on the RSGB site says 71.6 to 74.4 kHz.
Is it currently legal (and advisable) to Tx near 74.4?

The big unknown is how much error is caused by location
difference.  There seems to be pretty good amplitude
correlation between HBG and AQC as received by Dex,
so I am guessing that the delay correlation would be
adequate.  My apologies if this is way wrong.

73,

Stewart KK7KA

The discussion continues to produce interesting ideas. At the risk of boring
some I would like to throw in some more information.

Ground resistivity is usually measured with a 4 probe technique. ( I used a
similar method for exploring silicon ingot doping, and hence resistivity,
also diffused layers, when I started work on transistors in the early 60s.)
The measurement is based on the classic Kelvin bridge technique for
measurring low value resistors (my first lab experiment at University) low
value 'shunt' resistors with 4 terminals are often refered to as having
Kelvin contacts. The connection is used to avoid the affect of contact
resistance if only two terminals were used. The resistance value seen would
be the required value plus two variable terminal contact resistances. This
is avoided by passing the measuring current through one or a pair of
terminals at each end, and measuring the voltage drop across the other pair.
Provided there is very little current drawn by the "voltmeter" the contact
resistance at the voltage terminals will not significantly corrupt the true
measurement.

The 4 probe ground resistivity measurement works similarly. A potential is
applied to drive a current between the outer probes and the voltage is
measured on the inner pair. Contact resistance is a major problem with this
kind of soil measurement and this technique avoids it nicely. Polarisation
with DC can still be a problem hence the use of either a reversing switch or
more often mains frequency current is common. Strangely enough the
penetration of the probes is not really important although it affects the
calculation if the penetration is of the same order as the spacing of the
probes. (For the archeologists see the probe length and spacing on the
things being heaved around by Time Team's geophys experts.....UK TV)  The
more important factor is the probe spacing as one may consider that the
reading is influenced by the ground to approximately the same depth as the
spacing used (so surface contact is adequate). Some measurements have been
made with spacing of many kilometers. My AVO test leads would be a pushed at
that distance !! Remember that the ground penetration at 136kHz can be
between 5 and 20 metres. John G3PAI and the "cavemen" work through 100s of
metres at 87kHz.

Although ground resistivity obviously correlates in some way with our aerial
loss resistance it is not anything we can do much about. Most of us are
stuck with the ground we choose, usually for other than amateur radio
reasons, to live on. The important factor is to try to reduce the "ground"
loss (which includes environmental factors) as much as possible. Because
there are so wide a variation of situations it really is not possible to
give anything more than rough guidelines for use at any one site. I can only
suggest measuring it and trying different approaches to see which gives the
best returns on effort. I suggest measuring an unresonated aerial since it
avoids a having too many variables. You can also easily measure it over a
range of frequencies. This can be important because occasionally deviations
from the expected resistance frequency curve are seen and sometimes these
can be related to problems unknown to us and outside out control. One might
be a resonant length of mains cable to an outbuilding, of from a supply
transformer. I think you will soon find that there is little to be gained in
most places by using multiple earth stakes, and you can soon reach a optimum
on conterpoise installation. Then the remaining and to my mind most fruitful
area is to increase the aerial top-load capacity.

John, there does not NEED to be a lot there that you don't choose to start.
VSMON, Systray, DVP95 and Explorer come to mind.  If you stop one of them,
strangeness occurrs ;-)  I think if you stop Explorer, a new copy will
start.

Next would be anything that goes to special hardware you might have, e.g. a
video driver like my aticwd32 (or something close to that) gets started in
my machine.

Also, any open folders will be in that list.  But those should be
recognizable to you.

And of course the worst scenario is a virus or spyware running.  How careful
are you with virus and trojan scanning and updates?

Do you get the same list first thing after booting up each time?  And how
many?  If you get the list, I (or others) could give an opinion on what they
are or could be.  Some items will be in the StartUp folder but many use a
registry key, especially ones that don't want you to easily disable them,
like spyware.

Another possibility is if you use that machine to play with, err, evaluate,
lots of software then perhaps some did not clean up after themselves when
uninstalled?  A lot of "freeware" is actually "advertizer sponsored" which
leads to the spyware being put on your machine.  And there are probably 37
other causes that I have forgotten about <G>.

Peter,
as I recall, didn't W1BB go through puzzlement like yours  during his
extensive top band activities about forty to fifty years ago (that's my
generation gap showing again) operating from the middle of a salt marsh?
Bound to be something in the ARRL archives about it tho' if I remember
aright SWM also carried reports.
At least you have a respectable amount of antenna current. My modest 1.5A
into 3 wire 27ft vertical with about 630ft of  criss-cross top loading seems
to vary with the number of starlings and goldfinches using it as a meeting
place.
As I am on boulder clay on top of limestone, even getting earth rods to go
in, let alone make measurements, is difficult enough. However when building
on the 'west wing' last year I got the builder (GI0VLE) to put down a 5 wire
fan of heavy earth cable under the founds and have that plus the four 4ft
spikes of the old station earth tied to the ( all copper)water and heating
pipework in the bungalow, which is in turn connected via copper to the iron
watermain in the street, and for good measure to redundant power and
telephone earths from who knows where..  As a station earth it seems to make
little odds on HF but it don't half help the LF.

73,

Ian

There seems to be an awful lot of this on my machine (if I type CTRL-ALT-DEL
once I get a list of 17 different processes, most of which I do not
recognise). Where can I find out what they are and what they are for, so I
can decide whether I can safely delete them? I'm running Windows 98 and
Office 97.

Jim,

>>....Please separate System R and actual Earth R ...

>It would certainly make life easier. Please tell us how this separation is 
>to be accomplished...

I think Mal's point is that we have to be very cautious about reporting
effects such as this without fully evaluating the total system. Another easy
mistake (and this hits close to home due to the saturated 'tree density' on
my property) is to report ground loss without taking tree losses into
account. They both effect the total system resistance and are hard to
separate.

I was just about to post an interesting story about the extremes of loop
current I have witnessed over the last week. The soil changed from a nearly
saturated moisture condition, to a frozen condition, to a rain/snow soaked
condition, and to a frozen condition. Easy to assume it's the ground that's
causing the loop current to change 30%, right? Just before I hit the SEND
button I recalled that my 26ft diam .8" Cu test loop indicated almost no
change from the .07 ohms Rac during this time - so how could the above
variance be totally caused by the soil moisture?

Dear LF Group,

Thanks to all those who listened for signals last night, and for the 
reports. I will run the Jason mode beacon again tonight - 2200 - 0200 utc, 
137.500kHz as before. Any reports would be very welcome.

Cheers, Jim Moritz

This format seems to be derived from the QSO format used in EME at 432 MHz and above.&nbsp; As an alternative, 144 MHz EME has dropped the use of T and M reports, and uses only O which can only be sent to mean "I have copied both callsigns."&nbsp; When both stations have exchanged callsigns, O and R (meaning "roger" or "received"), the QSO is complete (73 is unnecessary).&nbsp; If signals are especially strong, sometimes RST is substituted for O (as in 339, hi)<BR>

Hello LF-fans!

I like the following algorithm more:

QRSS - QRSS
------------
1) CQ G3AQC K
2) G3AQC RU6LA K
3) RU6LA O AQC K   (or RU6LA O G3AQC K if no correct G3AQC call)
4) AQC O RO ("Roger O") LA K   (or AQC OR LA K ??)
5) LA RO AQC SK    (or better LA R AQC EE ??)
6) LA SK (or LA EE ??)

QRSS - CW (X-band also)
-----------------------
The CW-station will carry out traditional CW-CW QSO,
but the report gives O, M or T
1) CQ G3AQC K
2).......
3) RU6LA S7 ("Strength 7") AQC K
4).......
5)LA RO AQC SK  (or LA R AQC EE ??)
6).......
(I had a some QSOs with UA and all have understood, that I have
given them RST 579 ;-))

Can be on very slow QRSS (30-120s dot and on sked):
---------------------------------------------------
1) G3AQC K
2) AQC RU6LA K (in CW - traditional)
3) LA O K (in CW - LA S7 K)
4) AQC OR("Report O" & "Roger Report") K  (in CW traditional)
5) LA R EE
6) LA EE

I believe, that "Readability" it is better to not use
(R  - "Readability" or "Roger"??)

73! Ed  RU6LA  ed@dx.ru

It would certainly make life easier. Please tell us how this separation is

Hi Rik,
If one uses the four probe method of measuring ground resistivity, the
problem of contact resistance with the ground is overcome. Current is
injected into the soil through the outer two electrodes, and a voltage is
measured between the inner two electrodes. Use a constant current source on
the outer two probes, and a high impedance voltmeter on the inner pair. You
have to use a.c. because otherwise you get electrolytic effects. If there is
a poor connection the voltage on the constant current source rises to force
the same current through the soil. There is no volt-drop at the voltage
probes because there is negligible current here.

There are a variety of different arrangements of probes advocated for
different purposes, but basically the wider the spacing the deeper the
current flows in the soil. There is a diagram, and the equation to calculate
the resistivity at this location:
http://www.mines.edu/fs_home/tboyd/GP311/MODULES/RES/NOTES/2estres.html

Commercial equipment for measuring this (the sort of thing you see on time
team) uses about 1mA of current, and a frequency between 50 and 200 Hz that
avoids mains harmonics (I seem to have used 132Hz in my design).

Sometimes this sort of activity is called "geophys" - but I think if one
uses mains for the current source, one should call it "Geofizz" !

Dear Stewart, LF Group,

At 19:48 16/12/2002 +0100, you wrote:

In order to serve as a pilot carrier in this way, the signal from HBG would 
have to be subject to exactly the same propagation effects and noise levels 
as G3AQC - but since these two stations are operating in different 
locations, on different frequencies, is it likely that this is actually the 
case?

I am wondering about that for years now.
Apart from the fact that the measurement will be frequency dependent I 
would expect that it also depends on how deep the stakes are driven into 
the soil (maybe unless you have a uniform soil).
Anyone ever tried this (with or without success) at frequencies of 136kHz 
(or 180kHz) ?

To add to the confusion a little.   Has anyone noticed the change in coil (or 
loop)  Q that is going to occur over temperature ?   By my reckonning, over the 
temperature reange 0 deg to 40 deg (in a shed in a hot summer)  the DC copper 
resistance will go up by 16%.  (temperature coefficient of Cu at 20 deg = 
0.0039, delta R =  1.0039 ^ 40)

Assuming RF loss is only related to skin depth, and this changes as the square 
root of resistivity that suggests coil Q could to be 8% higher on cold winter 
days.
I know coil losses are usually swamped by ground losses, but it may just be 
observable by loop owners.

I think this is why people are confused. I believe that Dick measured
"system loss", which includes all losses except inductor loss. Calling it
"earth resistance" simplifies the situation too much. Plainly a wet
environment will increase leakages.

Has anyone measured earth resistance alone under different conditions? If I
recall correctly, this can be done with three earth stakes and Kirchoff's
laws.

In many cases wet soil will conduct better than dry soil, but not

As the water in the soil dissolves the salts conductivitity will

Could it be that in places with a &quot;natural&quot; low soil loss (so
most salt already dissolved) rain will increase the loss while with poor
soil it will decrease ?<br>
By the way, an antenna in the middle of a sweet water lake might not work
very well as sweet water is a rather poor conductor, in contradiction to
salt water.<br>
Another thing I observed : during rainfall the loss resistance increases
and only starts sinking a few hours (or even days) after the rain stops
:<br>
day 1 (dry) : 115 Ohm<br>
day 2-3 (heavy rain) : gradual increase to 130 Ohm<br>
day 4-5 (dry) : gradual decrease to 95 Ohm<br>
day 6-10 (dry) : gradual increase to 115 Ohm<br>
I believe that the first increase is caused by the wet greenery, after
the greenery dries up (but soil is still wet) the decrease starts and
after the soil dries up I am back to start.<br><br>

   Hi all
Dick has indicated that Earth Resistance gets higher when the ground is wet.
That seems strange and contrary to accepted theory............
-----------------------
Just a thought - pure water is an insulator. Part of the ground resistance
will be made up of salts dissolved in the moisture in the ground. If you add
rain water, which is probably more pure than the salt solution in the soil,
does the soil solution get weaker and a become poorer conductor?

If one use a small loop, it seems rain usualy should brings an increasing
of a loss.

Realy he had mesure earth resistance plus enviroment loss resistance.
Also leak in isolators also yelds a loss. Enviroment loss can became
grater when dielectric enviroment (say dry wood) is wet. And wet
isolators in antenna wire sure yelds losses in oposite to the case when
they are dry.

Wet soil itself sure yelds decreasing of the losses. Say if it is not
a dielectric but a conductor (may be sometimes it is a good
dielectric (???) in very spesial case...).

At the moment I am transmitting on 72.4kHz (0020 Tuesday). It is drizzling
and the humidity is high. The antenna current started off at 3 amps and has
now climbed up to 4amps. I am not sure if this is due to some drying out
effect of the coil or the rising tide. I will make a similar test in the
morning when the tide will be out.

I've been watching for Jim's Jason signal on 137.5 since 2300 - just
babbling so far.

I had reported earlier that my antenna current varies considerably for
reasons that I don't understand.
Last week, during a session of 73kHz T/A tests the weather was very cold and
dry with a moderate north east wind. During that period the antenna current
varied in a cyclic manner over a 24hour period from 3.9amps to 5amps!.
During the periods of high current the power supply current meter indicated
that the transmitter was using more power.
The weather in the last few days has been very wet and the lawn is
saturated. The maximum antenna current is 3 amps and that is after I have
adjusted to matching transformer to try and compensate for chang in losses.
Furthermore the current variation over the 24 hour period is not apparent.
I am located about 400m from the beach. The ground comprises 3m of heavy
clay over shingle.
The periods of high current appear to coincide with high tides.
Ground effects come in the black art category.

During my first cross-band QSO with VE1ZJ in September 2000 I was unsure
what to send - in the end I sent all the call signs TNX and 73s - the lot.
However conditions where good and with 3 second dots it didn't take too
long. With 120s dots its a different matter. The procedure suggested by Mal
seems the best to me and that TNX stuff, although being polite, is not
essential. For cross-band contacts the HF report of 599 could be cut to 5N
as the tone report is not relevant much these days. I also suggest that the
QRSS report could be cut down to two OOs or MMs, unless one of the calls has
this combination of letters.

In the early LF T/A days it was very difficult to ge any idea what was
happening or what was being experianced by the VE and W/K guys, hence the
need for close cooperation on a two-way HF link. It was this mindset that
caused me to look for a way of switching my antenna LF antenna from LF to 80
or 40m. However, with all the detailed and fast feedback from John and
Dexter the ability just to listen on HF is good enough. I can hear Ws and
VEs on 40m at the moment with my minibeam connected to to 850 via an ATU.
I can transmit on 72.4003 tonight for a couple of hours if this is of any
interest.

Hi Gary and all, no cans of worms....we are all just trying to understand
what is happening with our non-commercial sized aerials  .....and trying to
avoid any of the old wives tales. It is interesting that Laurie lives in
Bosham. Look at his QTH on the map and you would not believe he has trouble
with ground resistance. However Laurie has fought hard and long to get the
loss resistance down. Finbar lives alongside a sea-water bay, and he has to
do considerably more than just shoving a spike in the ground. Most perople
assume that seawater is a good conductor, it is better than land, but it is
not that good otherwise LF radio waves would not penetrate it to be used by
subs.

It is a very complex problem and I would be glad for anyone to explain the
test results we have measured.  I have yet to do the experiment of playing
the hosepipe on the ground under the aerial on an otherwise dry day to see
what difference it makes. The other problem is that my tap-water is almost
saturated with calcium carbonate so not as low a resistivity as rain-water.
( I am also metered and mean....but we wont talk about that )

There is an interesting reprint in the back of the newer LF Experimenter'
Handbook written by a German engineer about experiments at Nauen in 1922. I
think a lot of his results are pertinent to this question but he does not
hazard an explanation beyong the equivalent circuit with a lossy
capacitor.!! I said he was an engineer !! I am about to return to Watt's VLF
Engineering to see what can be gleaned from the extensive chapter on
earthing there. Also there is a book by Sunde which is devoted to earthing,
but more from the point of line transmission.

Most Garden Centres will sell you a soil moisture meter where the resistance
drops with increasing "wetness" ....these dont operate at 136kHz ,
unfortunately.

Great fun, and highly important as ground loss is the biggest of our
problems, half the ground loss, and you double the aerial current and
quadruple the ERP......and the worms dont get quite so much "central
heating".

Cheers de Alan G3NYK

I think both points of view are correct, but under differing prevailing 
conditions.

The type of soil may make a great difference in whether moisture enhances or 
degrades radiated signal.  Where I live now, the soil seems to experience 
increased dielectric loss when wet; whereas, in other locations, I found the 
opposite to be true.  Because of the greater skin depth of the earth as the 
wavelength increases, I would expect the effect to be more pronounced at LF 
than MF or HF.  Dick's data may be partial supporting evidence that this is 
so; in which case, it's even possible that some soils will be better at MF 
when wet, and better at LF when dry.  Sounds like a fertile field for 
investigation (no pun intended).

As for bodies of water, a freshwater lake turns out not to be as good a 
location for a ground plane as I once thought.  I have tried this approach at 
LF and MF at a few very different locations, always with less signal than 
expected.

Seawater is quite a different matter!  At MF, especially, it does truly 
wonderful things for signals.  Along with our fleet of VHF FM public 
broadcast stations, I oversee one small mediumwave station on the Georgia 
coast which is less than listenable more than about 20 miles inland.  
However, it has a coastal coverage range from St Augustine, Florida, to 
Hilton Head, South Carolina.  (In fact, do we have any readers in Bermuda?  
If so, I invite you to give a listen on 1190kHz.)

John

Wow,I certainly got a good response to that one including a lecture from
Mal.
I agree that R means recieved but it also means readability in "rst" ,
actually I don't think there is any confusion in my suggested use
I agree that full call signs should be exchanged at least once, so line 3
should read W4DEX R5 K.
Thanks for the responses, 73 Laurie.

<HTML><FONT FACE=arial,helvetica><FONT  SIZE=2>John,
<BR>&gt; Maxwell had it all wrong, according to Dr Kabbary...antennas 
<BR>radiate because of energy vortexes, which only a genuine, authentic, patented 
<BR>Kabbary-tuned CFA can produce properly!
<BR>&lt;
<BR>
<BR>Something for christmas (sorry xmas):
<BR>
<BR>Get a bottle of "Antennosol", spray your wire / loop with it, and see energy vortexes grow out of the conductor's surface (especially at the ends ;). 
<BR>Incredible ! E- &amp; H- field will cross, and 90° phase between them also in the near field. What a performer ! Buy now at your friendly Dr Kabbay Shop.

Hi all,

I believe that you have all the elements here to make a system
that can work at "any" SNR, i.e. a QSO could be completed even
when propagation is poor, it would just take longer.

The basic idea is that Laurie transmits a message at fairly
high speed, e.g. so that it takes only a minute to send.
The same message is repeated every minute, and Dex (or John)
has software which sums the received signals until the message
is readable.  Dex then sends his reply (over a reliable and
speedy HF channel), which tells Laurie (who can receive HF
while sending LF) to start sending the next message, or thanks
him for the completed QSO.  Dex resets his integrated message,
and starts accumulating the next one.

The above system is, of course, impractical, because the S/N
of the integrated message only improves as the square root of
the number of transmissions.  The QSO could take months.  Worse,
when propagation is poor, or noise levels are high, the received
garbage degrades the sum, and many episodes of good propagation
are needed to recover.  It could take centuries :)

However, I believe that HBG 75 could serve as a "pilot" carrier.
Laurie would transmit on a very accurately known frequency, e.g.
by locking to GPS or LORAN, or by using a Rubidium oscillator.
Dex, using a receive filter which accommodates both HBG and G3AQC,
has software which measures the apparent phase of HBG, and uses
that angle to (quadrature) demodulate G3AQC.  The integrated S/N
now improves linearly with time (under constant propagation).

As a further refinement, the amplitude of the received HBG and
the noise level are factored in, so that high quality minutes
are weighted more heavily.  The result should be nearly full
utilization of the channel, as if Laurie were always sending at
a speed appropriate to the current conditions.

Mal noted "No QSO should be valid if contact is lost and then the
next day or days later one continues with parts of the callsign
that were missed at the first attempt."  One feature of this
scheme is that contact is never "lost".  The received picture
always keeps getting sharper, albeit very slowly when the signal
is weak.

The above could, in theory, be adapted to almost any signaling
format, CW, DFCW, Jason, etc.

73,

Stewart KK7KA

The "TKS" and "73" is sent by W4DEX on 40m; I guess that will be in normal

The resistivity of the soil may well become lower as it gets wetter - but 
the bulk resistance of the soil is only one of many factors contributing to 
the loss resistance of the antenna. In "professional" LF antennas, so the 
text books say, loss resistance is predominantly due to resistive losses in 
the ground connection - but in the case of amateur antennas it is 
different, since these are much higher impedance, have a shorter path for 
the ground return currents to flow and are much closer to the ground. Under 
these conditions, I think the dominant factor contributing to the loss 
resistance is dielectric loss due to the RF electric field around the 
antenna heating up the ground and buildings, trees etc around the antenna. 
This is supported by observations showing that loss resistance decreases 
with increasing frequency for most amateur verticals (with the same antenna 
current, the antenna voltage will decrease with frequency, leading to lower 
dielectric loss - you would expect it the other way round due to increasing 
skin effect if the resistance of the ground was the major contributor), and 
the fact that improvements to ground systems quickly reach a point of 
diminishing returns, where adding further rods, radials, counterpoises, 
etc. makes almost no difference to the loss resistance.

Almost everyone using verticals seems to find that their antenna loss 
resistance goes up in wet conditions - I would imagine the same would be 
true to some extent with loops, with increasing conductivity resulting in 
larger eddy currents flowing in the ground, and so higher losses.

Cheers, Jim Moritz

If one has ANY kind of antenna suspended in free space, the ground loss 
becomes zero.  [grin]

This is why "miracle" antennas based on even the wackiest distortions of 
science seem to work if one models them under the right conditions.  (Yes, I 
mean the CFA among others.  Have you heard the current "theory" behind its 
operation?  Maxwell had it all wrong, according to Dr Kabbary...antennas 
radiate because of energy vortexes, which only a genuine, authentic, patented 
Kabbary-tuned CFA can produce properly!  So abandon all Marconis and loops, 
ye doomed experimenters, for thine antennas will simply cease to emit some 
fine morning....)

Dear Vlad, LF Group,

I plan to run the Jason-mode beacon again tonight, between about 2200 and 
0200 utc. Frequency 137.500kHz. Any reports will be very welcome.

Yes, but I was talking about ordinary EU QRSS3 QSOs. Perhaps I should have
put that in a separate e-mail.

<dd>Subject:</b> LF: Measuring earth resistance<br><br>

<dd>To All from PA0SE<br><br>

<dd>There were some requests for info on the way I measured the earth
resistance of my aerial system.<br><br>

<dd>In 1988 I made an impedance bridge with a noise source.&nbsp; In the
first version of this e-mail the circuit diagram was included but it did
not pass the reflector.&nbsp; 
<dd>Most bridges of this type have a transformer between the noise
amplifier and the bridge circuit. But I found it impossible to make the
bridge frequency independent up to 30MHz. By putting the transformer
between the bridge circuit and the detector I managed to make the
readings reliable up to 30MHz.<br><br>

<dd>For measuring earth resistance I connect the bridge between the
bottom end of the loading coil and the earth connection, after
disconnecting the transmitter from the coil.&nbsp; The X-control is left
at the zero position 
<dd>The detector (receiver = &quot;ontvanger &quot; in Dutch) is tuned to
136.5kHz and the vacuum capacitor in parallel with the tuning coil and
the R-control of the bridge tuned for minimum noise.&nbsp; The minimum is
so frequency-dependent that it becomes deeper as the bandwidth of the
receiver is reduced! 
<dd>The total resistance of the aerial system can then be read from the
R-control. But for better accuracy I measure its value&nbsp; with a
digital multimeter.
<dd>From the value so found I subtract the loss resistance of the loading
coil. What remains I call the earth resistance. Of course in that value
are also included the radiation resistance and the resistance of the
aerial and earth wire, But these quantities are negligible as compared to
the earth resistance.<br><br>

<dd>In the earth resistance will also be included losses in the aerial
insulation and in the capacitance of the aerial to surrounding objects
like trees (no trees in my case). But these losses are impossible to
separate from the real earth resistance.<br><br>

<dd>Measuring earth resistance at 50Hz has no meaning&nbsp; for the loss
at 136kHz because the earth resistance (impedance is more correct) is
frequency dependent. At&nbsp; low frequencies earth acts like a resistor,
at high frequencies like a capacitor in parallel with a
resistor.<br><br>

<dd>I find the loss resistance of the loading coil with its tuning
capacitor in parallel as follows.<br><br>

<dd>I use my W &amp; G signal generator and tracking selective voltmeter
type PSM-5. The generator is connected to a one-turn loop that is
positioned at some 35cm from the bottom end of the coil. An oscilloscope
probe is connected to the level meter and hung near the top end of the
coil. The aerial is replaced by a variable capacitor (broadcast receiver
type). The PSM-5 is adjusted to 136500Hz and the variable capacitor tuned
for maximum voltage over the coil and its value noted. The PSM-5 is then
tuned higher and lower to the frequencies where the voltage over the coil
has dropped to 0.707 (-3dB) of the maximum. The frequency difference
between these two frequencies is B (I use a frequency counter to improve
accuracy; B is rather small). This yields </font><font size=4>Q =
136.5/B</font><font size=3> (Q = 350 in my case).
<dd>The value C of the variable capacitor is then measured. This yields
the reactance of the capacitor </font><font size=4>
<dd>X = 6.28 * f * C ohms</font><font size=3>.&nbsp; Because there was
resonance this is also the reactance of the loading coil in parallel with
its tuning capacitor. 
<dd>We now find for the loss resistance of the loading coil:
</font><font size=4>R = X/Q</font><font size=3>.<br><br>

<dd>My measurements support the findings by Alan Melia. The earth
resistance is higher in winter than in summer and is maximum when the
earth is soaked with water. When the water freezes the resistance goes
down.<br><br>

<dd>I hope this info is of some use.<br><br>

The "TKS" and "73" is sent by W4DEX on 40m; I guess that will be in normal
speed and not QRSS ? :)

? sounds a bit long, all that you need is an otherwise
unused letter with suitable hamming distance. How about 'U'

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Dick, conventional wisdom says that the soil 
resistance becomes&nbsp; lower as the soil becomes wetter. However your

wetness. Perhaps there is another coupling mechanism here. For example, if one

  <DIV><BR></DIV><FONT size=3><B>To All from PA0SE<BR><BR>There were some 
  requests for info on the way I measured the earth resistance of my aerial 
  system.<BR><BR>In 1988 I made an impedance bridge with a noise source.&nbsp; 
  In the first version of this e-mail the circuit diagram was included but it 
  did not pass the reflector.&nbsp; <BR>Most bridges of this type have a 
  transformer between the noise amplifier and the bridge circuit. But I found it 
  impossible to make the bridge frequency independent up to 30MHz. By putting 
  the transformer between the bridge circuit and the detector I managed to make 
  the readings reliable up to 30MHz.<BR><BR>For measuring earth resistance I 
  connect the bridge between the bottom end of the loading coil and the earth 
  connection, after disconnecting the transmitter from the coil.&nbsp; The 
  X-control is left at the zero position <BR>The detector (receiver = "ontvanger 
  " in Dutch) is tuned to 136.5kHz and the vacuum capacitor in parallel with the 
  tuning coil and the R-control of the bridge tuned for minimum noise.&nbsp; The 
  minimum is so frequency-dependent that it becomes deeper as the bandwidth of 
  the receiver is reduced! <BR>The total resistance of the aerial system can 
  then be read from the R-control. But for better accuracy I measure its 
  value&nbsp; with a digital multimeter.<BR>From the value so found I subtract 
  the loss resistance of the loading coil. What remains I call the earth 
  resistance. Of course in that value are also included the radiation resistance 
  and the resistance of the aerial and earth wire, But these quantities are 
  negligible as compared to the earth resistance.<BR><BR>In the earth resistance 
  will also be included losses in the aerial insulation and in the capacitance 
  of the aerial to surrounding objects like trees (no trees in my case). But 
  these losses are impossible to separate from the real earth 
  resistance.<BR><BR>Measuring earth resistance at 50Hz has no meaning&nbsp; for 
  the loss at 136kHz because the earth resistance (impedance is more correct) is 
  frequency dependent. At&nbsp; low frequencies earth acts like a resistor, at 
  high frequencies like a capacitor in parallel with a resistor.<BR><BR>I find 
  the loss resistance of the loading coil with its tuning capacitor in parallel 
  as follows.<BR><BR>I use my W &amp; G signal generator and tracking selective 
  voltmeter type PSM-5. The generator is connected to a one-turn loop that is 
  positioned at some 35cm from the bottom end of the coil. An oscilloscope probe 
  is connected to the level meter and hung near the top end of the coil. The 
  aerial is replaced by a variable capacitor (broadcast receiver type). The 
  PSM-5 is adjusted to 136500Hz and the variable capacitor tuned for maximum 
  voltage over the coil and its value noted. The PSM-5 is then tuned higher and 
  lower to the frequencies where the voltage over the coil has dropped to 0.707 
  (-3dB) of the maximum. The frequency difference between these two frequencies 
  is B (I use a frequency counter to improve accuracy; B is rather small). This 
  yields </FONT><FONT size=4>Q = 136.5/B</FONT><FONT size=3> (Q = 350 in my 
  case).<BR>The value C of the variable capacitor is then measured. This yields 
  the reactance of the capacitor <BR></FONT><FONT size=4>X = 6.28 * f * C 
  ohms</FONT><FONT size=3>.&nbsp; Because there was resonance this is also the 
  reactance of the loading coil in parallel with its tuning capacitor. <BR>We 
  now find for the loss resistance of the loading coil: </FONT><FONT size=4>R = 
  X/Q</FONT><FONT size=3>.<BR><BR>My measurements support the findings by Alan 
  Melia. The earth resistance is higher in winter than in summer and is maximum 
  when the earth is soaked with water. When the water freezes the resistance 
  goes down.<BR><BR>I hope this info is of some use.<BR><BR>73, Dick,

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; The basic criteria for a LF/HF 
xband QSO is that both callsigns must be heard or seen in full at the respective 
ends&nbsp;and not just bits and pieces and not over a number of days but during 
the same session.The session could take minutes or in the QRS context a few 
hours. No&nbsp;QSO&nbsp;should be valid if contact is lost and then the next day 
or days later&nbsp;one continues with parts of the callsign that were 
missed&nbsp;at the first attempt.&nbsp;</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Because of the QRS element taking so long to send a 
callsign then it would be permissible for the receiving HF&nbsp;station having 
seen only the callsign of the transmitting station in full to reply on HF at 
normal cw speed with callsign de callsign&nbsp;and give a report ie OOO then 
the&nbsp;LF transmitting station would reply with R OOO. The HF end would then 
send QSL 73 etc.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>This is my suggestion for LF QRS 120/60/30 sec 
speed, at higher speeds more info could be sent by the LF station ie callsign de 
callsign.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>IF there are a number of LF stations active there 
should not be any confusion because the HF end is going to call the callsign 
that he is hearing/seeing, have the xband qso and when finished call another 
that he can recognise. This is normal practice on HF dx working these days for 
those that do not know. The&nbsp;DX &nbsp;station calls CQ on his freq and 
listens a few khz up normally for replies, there are hundreds calling at times 
using only their callsign, the DX station selects one at a time and&nbsp;gives a 
report, the recipient then sends a report and signs off, the DX station then 
continues with the next that he wants to work.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>To convince those interested that a proper QSO did 
take place then a gram shot of the LF end taken by the HF station would be an 
advantage. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>During last winter all my xband QSO'S on 136 
khz/7025 khz&nbsp;&nbsp;did have GRAM shots of my callsign in full at speeds 
from 60 - 2 sec dots. These were sent via email to me from the USA and Canadian 
plus&nbsp;a lot of other gram shots send by those listening but not transmitting 
from N. America and Europe.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I will be on again this year if I get time, very 
busy with other projects at present but do have both 73 and 136 khz

Steve (and others):

Please understand that Laurie is proposing this for a crossband QSO, where
the "west end of the pond" response will be on 40 meter regular CW, not
QRSS.

I was going to say something similar.  Both  EME and Meteor Scatter make use of 
rigidly defined QSO formats and R definitely means Roger/Received OK so you 
need another symbol to request a repeat.  How about  ' ? '

Laurie, John et al,

Since I'm not directly involved, I should probably keep my mouth shut, but
from experience in other forms of weak-signal work I might suggest reserving
"R" for "Roger" and just sending the signal report, whether "O", "5" or
whatever.  If the receiving station would like the report repeated, how about
"?" rather than "R?"

Purists might argue out that G3AQC has not acknowledged receiving Dex's full call -- prefix missing. Historically, does the T/A ratings business have any purists?  :>)

If you're not already familiar with it, you may want to take a look at the QSO format used in 144 MHz EME.&nbsp; It is simpler than those used at 432 MHz or in MS work, and has evolved in order to make the weakest CW signals intelligible to the ear.&nbsp; The same logic would seem to apply to the eye using Argo.<BR>

Or the very long 'CQ'? Maybe it's time for a new set of abbreviations to go 
with the mode.

In line 3, you need to send 'R 5' (roger your report, you are readability
5), not 'R5' (readability 5).
Purists may prefer to send a report, rather than readability, but I agree
that this is meaningless especially if the HF link is below standard owing
to using compromise antennas.
A QRSS repeat request should be just a question mark, IMI.
Line (5) is surplus to requirements.
This is as brief as possible but still includes the 'essential' elements,
full exchange of callsigns, reports and rogers.

Good luck with the QSO.

On a general point about QRSS procedures, I still see 'TNX' or 'TKS' being
sent, 'TU' is much shorter. Also do we need to send the very long '73'?

Laurie,

> How does this sound ?

Sounds good to me. Of course, "W1TAG" sounds better than "W4DEX." <g>

Since I'm not directly involved, I should probably keep my mouth shut, but from experience in other forms of weak-signal work I might suggest reserving "R" for "Roger" and just sending the signal report, whether "O", "5" or whatever.&nbsp; If the receiving station would like the report repeated, how about "?" rather than "R?"<BR>

I am attempting a X band contact on 73kHz, and would like to discuss a
minimal X band QSO format,remembering that openings are short.
As I understand it the requirments are for an exchange of full callsigns,
and reports.If this so I would like to :-
1) drop CQ,  not required since QSO has been agreed.
2) drop RST, T is always 9 ! and S depends on the recieve set- up,so what
matters is R readability.
I therfore propose the following format for an imaginary QSO between G3AQC,
DFCW/QRSS  and W4DEX CW on HF.

1) G3AQC K
2) G3AQC de W4DEX  O O O  K
3) DEX R5 K
4) G3AQC de W4DEX R5 73 VA  EE
5) EE

In the event that the QRSS/DFCW station misses a report he will request a
repeat by sending  R IMI.
How does this sound ?
73 Laurie.

by first USA - G QSO on 136! ???


"KM1CC             MARCONI WIRELESS CENTENNIAL - January 11-19, 2003
Celebrating The 100th Anniversary of Guglielmo Marconi's First Wireless
transmission between the United States and Europe on January 11 - 19, 2003.

>From atop high, sandy cliffs overlooking the Atlantic, Marconi transmitted
a simple, 54-word greeting from President Theodore Roosevelt to Great
Britain's King Edward VII. Within hours, the King acknowledged receiving
the message, and the spark of global communications was lit.

The Marconi Radio Club, W1AA, and the Marconi Cape Cod Memorial Radio Club,
KM1CC, working in partnership with the National Park Service at Cape Cod
National Seashore, will operate a Special Event station from January 11-19
at the former Coast Guard station at Coast Guard Beach in Eastham,
Massachusetts, from near the site of the original Marconi 1903 Station.
>From 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. each day, the public will be able to tour the
station, listen to voice and Morse Code discussions with other radio
operators around the world, and learn about wireless technology and the
significance of Marconi's achievement. For Details See:

Hi Dick,
but you use a noise source ie. not 136kHz only. does that not matter ?

fb,
but suppose the values of the noise generator are for the range 3-30MHz, the coupling capacitors must be increased for VLF

Hi Dex, John,
Last nights transmissions did not start out as a X band attempt. I did not
expect any propagation, and just wanted to prove that I was right ! However
as usual the Ionosphere confounded me and Dex reported a good signal, for a
while.
I had started with 175sec elements 0.06Hz shift DFCW requiring 120
sec.Argo,and was only sending AQC.After the report (via e mail ) I decided
to speed things up and went to 120 sec elements with 0.1Hz shift. So that
90sec Argo could be used. This resulted in a slight drop in frequency
noticed by John.I also transmitted CQ G3AQC K so that if Dex did see the
signals we could attempt a QSO. However the propagation then started to drop
out. Dex noted that HBG was also dropping so at least we have some
correlation between HBG and signals going the other way.
I did not hear Dex on 7030 so no QSO resulted and I finally closed down at
01:25UTC.
We came quite close to a QSO on a night which did not promise well so there
is hope for the future. We need to check out the HF frequency, perhaps 14mHz
would be better? I should also like to discuss the format for such a X band
QSO, even with DFCW it still takes a long time to send a message. I will put
my thoughts down in a later  mail. Now I need some sleep.
Thanks Dex and John,( and Ko for the report),73 Laurie.

Laurie,

I got home at 0200, and found one complete AQC ID, and a lot of fragments,
starting at 2200. Some of the fragments were quite strong, but the signal
peaks weren't long enough. You evidently changed frequency during the run.

Hi Dex I don't know wether my return message went out.
I am transmitting DFCW 120 sec elements so look for me on 90sec argo. I
think cdx poor but eill stay on for about one hour. Listening on 7030.

I won't be able to check the results until 0200 or so.  Good luck!

Hi Dex,John and all,
The Kp index is up to 3 and its been a long time since it was high (lots of
decay ).  I think the chance of good propagation  tonight is poor,but it
would be interesting to find out. So I will transmit tonight from 2200 UTC
on 72.401, QRSS 120. I hope someone will be able to have a look and report.
73 Laurie.

Hello all!
Now (after my marriadge), I start again on LF 136kc, but recive only. I use
FT-840, home made upconverter and indoor loop antenna. For now, I copy
LORAN-? 30-35db S/N. (Hope to improove in near future ).
Any body can to help me and write about European QRSS beacons in 136 kc
band?
73! Your Vlad.  RX3QFM (KO91oq).

Sorry about this a.m. Laurie. I am not 'permanently on-line' and so did not
get your messages until I looked in the box this evening.
Have been "footerin' about"(as they say here) with the gear and can now get
on 136 at reduced power but favour 73 while we have the chance.
Next week I shall have the same 'small-finger-problem' as you!
73,
Ian.

Dear Mal, Alan, HF Group,

I have spent some time during the past couple of years listening to the 
band around 500kHz - I have yet to hear any 2-way communications going on. 
What I do hear is various shore stations (mainly Italian), who pop up on 
500kHz, then QSY to a nearby frequency to broadcast traffic lists, weather 
reports, and bulletins of shipping hazards. I guess these same broadcasts 
are being tranmitted on HF - they seem to be machine generated. As Alan 
suggests, there is a difference between the broadcasts being there, and 
anybody actually using them. I think NAVTEX is an entirely automatic set 
up, with a dedicated RX printing out the broadcasts, without any operator 
being involved. The marine radio suppliers don't seem to be offering MF 
transmitters - how many ships do you see with a viable MF transmitting 
antenna? Even with the broadcasts, the majority of the spectrum around 
500kHz never seems to have any signals in it, so it would seem there is 
plenty of room for a few kHz of amateur band without causing problems. I 
have heard that there is some interest in using this frequency range for 
broadcasting differential GPS information, so that may be part of the 
reason the powers that be are not keen on an amateur band.



In a QSO with G3XIZ yesterday, I heard that M0FMT is in the process of 
getting set up on 73kHz, and hopes to be QRV in the near future - so one 
worth watching out for.

Cheers, Jim Moritz
73 de M0BMU

<html>
<font size=3 color="#FF0000"><b>To All from PA0SE<br><br>
In my previous message I made a mistake in the formula for the reactance
of a capacitor.&nbsp; In this repeat the correct formula is
used.<br><br>
</font><font size=3>There were some requests for info on the way I
measured the earth resistance of my aerial system.<br><br>
In 1988 I made an impedance bridge with a noise source.&nbsp; In the
first version of this e-mail the circuit diagram was included but it did
not pass the reflector.&nbsp; <br>
Most bridges of this type have a transformer between the noise amplifier
and the bridge circuit. But I found it impossible to make the bridge
frequency independent up to 30MHz. By putting the transformer between the
bridge circuit and the detector I managed to make the readings reliable
up to 30MHz.<br><br>
For measuring earth resistance I connect the bridge between the bottom
end of the loading coil and the earth connection, after disconnecting the
transmitter from the coil.&nbsp; The X-control is left at the zero
position <br>
The detector (receiver = &quot;ontvanger &quot; in Dutch) is tuned to
136.5kHz and the vacuum capacitor in parallel with the tuning coil and
the R-control of the bridge tuned for minimum noise.&nbsp; The minimum is
so frequency-dependent that it becomes deeper as the bandwidth of the
receiver is reduced! <br>
The total resistance of the aerial system can then be read from the
R-control. But for better accuracy I measure its value&nbsp; with a
digital multimeter.<br>
 From the value so found I subtract the loss resistance of the loading
coil. What remains I call the earth resistance. Of course in that value
are also included the radiation resistance and the resistance of the
aerial and earth wire, But these quantities are negligible as compared to
the earth resistance.<br><br>
In the earth resistance will also be included losses in the aerial
insulation and in the capacitance of the aerial to surrounding objects
like trees (no trees in my case). But these losses are impossible to
separate from the real earth resistance.<br><br>
Measuring earth resistance at 50Hz has no meaning&nbsp; for the loss at
136kHz because the earth resistance (impedance is more correct) is
frequency dependent. At&nbsp; low frequencies earth acts like a resistor,
at high frequencies like a capacitor in parallel with a
resistor.<br><br>
I find the loss resistance of the loading coil with its tuning capacitor
in parallel as follows.<br><br>
I use my W &amp; G signal generator and tracking selective voltmeter type
PSM-5. The generator is connected to a one-turn loop that is positioned
at some 35cm from the bottom end of the coil. An oscilloscope probe is
connected to the level meter and hung near the top end of the coil. The
aerial is replaced by a variable capacitor (broadcast receiver type). The
PSM-5 is adjusted to 136500Hz and the variable capacitor tuned for
maximum voltage over the coil and its value noted. The PSM-5 is then
tuned higher and lower to the frequencies where the voltage over the coil
has dropped to 0.707 (-3dB) of the maximum. The frequency difference
between these two frequencies is B (I use a frequency counter to improve
accuracy; B is rather small). This yields </font><font size=4>Q =
136.5/B</font><font size=3> (Q = 350 in my case).<br>
The value C of the variable capacitor is then measured. This yields the
reactance of the capacitor <br>
</font><font size=4 color="#FF0000">X = 1/6.28 * f * C
ohms</font><font size=3>.&nbsp; Because there was resonance this is also
the reactance of the loading coil in parallel with its tuning capacitor.
<br>
We now find for the loss resistance of the loading coil:
</font><font size=4>R = X/Q</font><font size=3>.<br><br>
My measurements support the findings by Alan Melia. The earth resistance
is higher in winter than in summer and is maximum when the earth is
soaked with water. When the water freezes the resistance goes
down.<br><br>
I hope this info is of some use.<br><br>

Hi Mal and the group, yes there are some quite enormous traffic lists being
sent on 500 and other nearby calling frequencies. Do you EVER hear any
traffic being transacted down there ?? I would certianly be interested if
anyone does hear traffic to know the details. It is believed that these
traffic list transmissions are a "political" ploy by the shore-station
operators of some
countries who object to the downgrading of their jobs (and presumably the
loss
of status and pay) The local container port, which is supposed to be the 2nd
largest in Europe now, no longer has any ships calling which carry qualifed
radio ops.
The frequencies are still valid but I would be surprised if any ships where
still fitted with a capability, except in certain limited areas like the far
east and some parts of South America

There are however several Navtex frequencies, 518kHz being one, which some
administartions are understandably sensitive about. I beliebe these are
liable to be the biggest stumbling-block.

QRN here in NC is about gone but the K it up.  If anyone would like to

Ian.
You are doing well considering your modest antenna on 73 khz and a lot
better than when you operated from  the Lurgan Decca site with the big
antenna. I think receiving was the problem there and I dont know why because
its out in the middle of the country. I have been to the site a few times
and know Gordon and Joe the engineers and the farmer that owns the site.The
site is only about 22 miles from Tullywiggan if you take the near cut across
the Lough Hi !!!
 You are a good strong 579 in Scarboro on 73

Dear LF Group,

Thanks to those who were listening for the Jason sigs last night, and for 
the reception reports - unfortunately the QRN level was very high, like a 
summer night here, and seems to have been the same across the pond. I guess 
the QRN will last a while, so I will wait a couple of days for the 
thunderstorms to die away.

Thanks also to Markus, DF6NM for the 2 way Jason QSO - This was my first 
actual contact in Jason mode. I have not yet worked out proper T-R 
switching for Jason, so it was a bit tricky to do, but it worked very well, 
in spite of this and the QRN.

Cheers, Jim Moritz

Please forgive me if I'm straying off line here. If I'm shot down in flames
I'll know better next time.

I'm having a clear out. None of it is speficically lf related, but some
metalwork might be of particular interest. I have some water cooled
heatsinks, roughly 250 x 200mm and 500 x 200mm, made from aluminium about
10mm thick with a thicker centre section which carries 4 stainless tubes for
water. There's also 4 into 1 manifolds and flow switches and other bits to
go woth them, as well as some cover metalwork so you add the front/back
panels to make a really nice box. The heatsinks are drilled to take 6 or 12
pairs of standard 'helicopter' rf power transistor packages which makes them
useful for hf/vhf amps as well as having plenty of holes to use for plastic
power transistors. In commercial use they were cooling about 1kW dissipation
continous - they're left over after the rf sections were transferred into a
different case.

I've no idea how to price them - professionally I expect they would be many
hundreds of pounds each. I'm open to offers or trades - all money will go to
charity anyway. I'll try to sort out some pictures over the weekend.

Sorry, all.  I meant to send that response directly to Dick.  Sometimes my 
mail client chooses its own reply-to address rules, seemingly at random, and

Hi Dick,

As usual, I'll be happy to host the diagram on the LWCA site if you'd like to

I should have known that with an approaching storm, it would be noisy
tonight. As of 0015, no intelligence of M0BMU has been obtained. I'll keep
running in the hope that the signal may peak for a while.

Lots of QRN here tonight from a front just south east of my location.  I
don't expect to see anything but I will be watching.  After my yearly

Are you sure that the interfering signal from the PC is reaching the antenna
via the power line connection? Have you tried isolating the shield of the
antenna's coax leaden from the receiver's and house's safety ground system
by installing a isolation transformer at the receiver? This is typically 25
turns to 25 turns on a #43 ferrite core.

Jan_Martin LA8AK,

> Wonder if somebody has any experience in building mains filters for the PC
?

An alternative approach is to insert a mains isolating transformer at the PC
(and also watch out for "bypassing" if there are computer peripheral devices
with mains PSUs).

Most of the commercially made filters, such as IEC chassis mounting sockets
with filter inside, have only a millihenry or so of "choke" and that can not
provide high attenuation at LF.  I was lucky enough to come across a mains
filter that was multi-stage, with good sized potcores, and that is
reasonably effective on LF.

Farmer's supply places also sell reels of it quite cheaply for electric

I guess you mean "earth conductivity", which is the reverse of
"earth resistance" and moves in the opposite way between summer
and winter!

After careful examination, I have found my 73kHz fault. It was not the Tx
FETs, but an insulation breakdown in the wire that takes the RF through the
house wall. It is well insulated and goes through plastic conduit, but
testing it with the 136kHz Tx in the dark produced a warm glow at the end of
the piping and a hissing noise. The insulation on the wire had broken down -
probably the gradual deterioration caused by corona on 73kHz - and the
plastic conduit was not man enough for the job. It must have caused a
complete short circuit with the higher voltages on 73k.  I think I will have
to try my local car spares dealer to see if I can buy some ignition wire.

I am now available for skeds or test transmissions on 73kHz is anyone wants
one.

Dear Markus, John, LF Group,

If you recall the "Hendrixizer" from some time ago, the same effect works 
well with QRSS. If you crank the RX gain up until the audio out is heavily 
clipped, it does quite a good job of reducing the effect of QRN crashes. 
The other effect is that, because you are effectively limiting the noise 
amplitude, the output noise level is fairly independent of the actual 
amplitude of the noise at the input. This makes the display quite tolerant 
to gradual changes of noise level.

Try it - you might be surprised! On my RX, I just switch off the AGC and 
turn AF and RF gain to maximum, and set the sound card gain so it is well 
below overload - it sounds horrible, but the vertical streaks largely 
dissapear. Of course, it will only work if there are no strong signals 
above the noise within the RX passband; if there are, you will get FM-like 
quieting, where the strong signal suppresses the noise and weak signals. It 
won't help much either if there is strong noise drifting rapidly in and out 
of the passband, but then AGC will be just as bad.

I will run a Jason mode beacon on 137.500kHz tonight, over at least 2300 - 
0200 utc - any reports will be welcome.

Cheers, Jim Moritz

Tnx

Also considered setting to spread spectrum for the clock osc, 
but we didn't find how to deal with IBM Aptiva PC, hi
(The two PC's types with most problems seems to be COMPAQ and IBM types, 
but the manufacturers never seem to understand that a reset button could be needed!!!)

Jan-Martin.

Try changing one of the video settings such as frame rate of the monitor if
your video card allows. It is usually video/monitor that produce stable
carriers in the 136 band.
Alternatively just switch to a different resolution.
Prove it by switching the monitor off and leaving the PC on.

Markus,

>- I would probably prefer a lower speed: 90s-slow has the same resolution
as 60s-normal, but shows 2.8 hours in a single screenshot (allowing me to
doze away for a while without losing downloads ;-)). <

Point well taken, and it also opens up the opportunity for someone to
transmit at slower than QRSS60 speeds.

>- I am usually avoiding the AGC automatic gain setting as it makes it

Sometimes when dashes are disrupted to a pair of dots, it would help to see
whether there is a burst of QRN in the middle.<

I have used it to make things less touchy with my local noise levels, which
are both considerable and variable. Particularly on the overnight captures
when I am happily asleep, it's nice to have a little protection. I'm in a
suburban neighborhood, and it is not very quiet. I'll experiment, though. I
will definitely be recording some .WAV files for later processing.

yes, great, I would surely like to get on the air again. Who else ??<BR>
<BR>
On the receive side, there are perhaps a couple of minor issues about Argo's settings that may be worth considering:<BR>
<BR>
- I would probably prefer a lower speed: 90s-slow has the same resolution as 60s-normal, but shows 2.8 hours in a single screenshot (allowing me to doze away for a while without losing downloads ;-)). There is no real loss in temporal resolution as that is anyhow limited by the 10.5mHz bandwidth; the FFT interleave factor (ie number of columns per FFT length) would still be 5.3 instead of 15.9. In my experience, increasing the interleave above about 3 does not show more information, it only makes the noise blobs look wider. <BR>
<BR>
- I am usually avoiding the AGC automatic gain setting as it makes it impossible to distinguish between reduced signal and increased noise. Sometimes when dashes are disrupted to a pair of dots, it would help to see whether there is a burst of QRN in the middle.<BR>

By the way, is John VE1ZJ currently QRV on LF?<BR>

<html>
<font size=3><b>To All from PA0SE<br><br>
There were some requests for info on the way I measured the earth
resistance of my aerial system.<br><br>
In 1988 I made an impedance bridge with a noise source.&nbsp; In the
first version of this e-mail the circuit diagram was included but it did
not pass the reflector.&nbsp; <br>
Most bridges of this type have a transformer between the noise amplifier
and the bridge circuit. But I found it impossible to make the bridge
frequency independent up to 30MHz. By putting the transformer between the
bridge circuit and the detector I managed to make the readings reliable
up to 30MHz.<br><br>
For measuring earth resistance I connect the bridge between the bottom
end of the loading coil and the earth connection, after disconnecting the
transmitter from the coil.&nbsp; The X-control is left at the zero
position <br>
The detector (receiver = &quot;ontvanger &quot; in Dutch) is tuned to
136.5kHz and the vacuum capacitor in parallel with the tuning coil and
the R-control of the bridge tuned for minimum noise.&nbsp; The minimum is
so frequency-dependent that it becomes deeper as the bandwidth of the
receiver is reduced! <br>
The total resistance of the aerial system can then be read from the
R-control. But for better accuracy I measure its value&nbsp; with a
digital multimeter.<br>
 From the value so found I subtract the loss resistance of the loading
coil. What remains I call the earth resistance. Of course in that value
are also included the radiation resistance and the resistance of the
aerial and earth wire, But these quantities are negligible as compared to
the earth resistance.<br><br>
In the earth resistance will also be included losses in the aerial
insulation and in the capacitance of the aerial to surrounding objects
like trees (no trees in my case). But these losses are impossible to
separate from the real earth resistance.<br><br>
Measuring earth resistance at 50Hz has no meaning&nbsp; for the loss at
136kHz because the earth resistance (impedance is more correct) is
frequency dependent. At&nbsp; low frequencies earth acts like a resistor,
at high frequencies like a capacitor in parallel with a
resistor.<br><br>
I find the loss resistance of the loading coil with its tuning capacitor
in parallel as follows.<br><br>
I use my W &amp; G signal generator and tracking selective voltmeter type
PSM-5. The generator is connected to a one-turn loop that is positioned
at some 35cm from the bottom end of the coil. An oscilloscope probe is
connected to the level meter and hung near the top end of the coil. The
aerial is replaced by a variable capacitor (broadcast receiver type). The
PSM-5 is adjusted to 136500Hz and the variable capacitor tuned for
maximum voltage over the coil and its value noted. The PSM-5 is then
tuned higher and lower to the frequencies where the voltage over the coil
has dropped to 0.707 (-3dB) of the maximum. The frequency difference
between these two frequencies is B (I use a frequency counter to improve
accuracy; B is rather small). This yields </font><font size=4>Q =
136.5/B</font><font size=3> (Q = 350 in my case).<br>
The value C of the variable capacitor is then measured. This yields the
reactance of the capacitor <br>

Jim,

137.500 looks clear here. Can't do anything before 2230, due to work, but
I'd be happy to give it a try, at least for a while.

I intend to do some Jason tests if you are interested - if anyone is 
planning to try QRSS at the same time, it would probably be better to use a 
different frequency, perhaps around 135.918kHz, or in the "digital" segment 
around 137.5kHz. Any preferences?

Yes, all night sessions put me in zombie mode for the following couple of
days.

I have only one long wire antenna

My first 136 Xband with VE1ZJ was in September when the 14MHz band was open
so I could use my minibeam. For the 'reverse' crossband 3.51MHz/136kHz I
used the loop for 136 receive and the big antenna for transmitting. In the
situation of 73kHz/3.5MHz I would have to use the same antenna for both. The
only way I could do this would be to go down the garden and change over the
antenna from the one transmitter to the other manually - not an impossible
task
However I think Laurie has a good separate 80m antenna.
I think the USA LF team are concentrating on 136kHz tonight.

Peter, G3LDO

Dear Hugh, Gary, LF Group,

I have used basically 2 methods to measure the loss resistance of an 
antenna. First is a straightforward "noise bridge" type of impedance 
measurement where the impedance of the antenna is compared to a reference 
resistor/capacitor combination. At LF, a CW source is a better idea than a 
noise source for the bridge excitation, due to the narrow bandwidths. A 
normal receiver can be used as null detector, but I use the SPM3 level 
meter with PS3 tracking generator - the ideal tools for the job. I resonate 
the antenna with a series L, and measure the resistance, rather than trying 
to balance the resistance and capacitance with the bridge. The main 
advantage of this is that the resonant antenna stops the poor SPM3 being 
blasted by the very strong MF broadcast signals at my QTH. The second 
method is an "on line"method, where I use a dual trace oscilloscope to 
measure the voltage and current (via a current transformer) at the feed 
point while transmitting - I also use this as a tuning aid.

Of course, this gives you the total of the loss resistance of the antenna, 
the loading coil resistance, and the radiation resistance. The coil AC 
resistance can be measured in a separate experiment, and subtracted from 
the total. The radiation resistance is so small that it has no effect on 
the overall resistance. Rrad can either be determined by calculations using 
the antenna geometry, (see ON7YD's web pages, or use an antenna simulator 
like EZNEC), or inferred from field strength measurements - unfortunately, 
the latter shows that the former usually gives optimistic results!

Cheers, Jim Moritz

Hi all,

having  worked G3AQC;G3LDO;G3XDV;G3YXM and M0BMU during the last couple of
weeks there seems to be a dearth of  customers for GI. Is there anybody else
who wants a QSO? Always ready to oblige.

Hi Hugh and Gary,<br><br>
If you have a 136kHz TX it's rather easy : measure the antenna current
and the TX output voltage, R = U/I. The calculated R is the total loss
resistance + radiation resistance, but the last is far less than 1 Ohm so
you can ignore it. If you want to know the ground loss (or better said
environmental losses) you have to subtract the loss in the loading
coil.<br>
An more direct resistance measurement can be done using a Wheatstone
bridge or something similar<br>
&nbsp;(&quot;antenna analyzer&quot;), have a look here for some
construction ideas :<br>

Have a steady tone around 136.5kHz. It is definitely from my PC, 
and the level was much reduced when the frame aerial was moved out into the 
garden, but still I must switch off the PC when listening on certain 
parts of the band.

Wonder if somebody has any experience in building mains filters for the PC ?

I agree with Peter, Dex's information is very useful,and certainly 73
appears very stable. However it is still dependant on solar conditions,at
the moment Kp is very low but it is unlikely to remain low, as the Sun
rotates it might be another month  before things are good again.
So now is the time for a cross band attempt.
Unfortunately I am still trying to catch up with sleep from our tues/wed.
night efforts.

Hi Hugh,Gary,
The efficiency of all antennas depends on three resistances
Rrad.the radiation resistance determined mainly by the height of the
vertical section,formulas for calculating this in various text books.However
it is unlikely to exceed 0.1 ohm probably 0.01 ohm especially on 73kHz.The
earth loss resistance which depends on many factors and which is the RF loss
resistance not the DC resistance although they are related.It must be
measured at the frequency in use since there is more or less ground
penetration ,more at low frequencies. Finally the environment loss
resistance due to trees structures etc close to the antenna.
As Alan says a simple bridge can be used to measure this TOTAL
resistance,which is unlikely to be less than 25 ohms in am amateur situation
and may well exceed 100 ohms. Since radiated power depends on the current in
the Antenna (vert sect) it is important but difficult to reduce this
resistance.
Hope this helps, mail me direct if I can explain  more at length.
73 Laurie.

As opposed to a floating rf bridge, there's some stuff on G4FGQ's site - a
couple of progs related to earthing resistance issues. They include copious
notes, including describing measuring soil rho with 50Hz low voltage, then
calculating earth resistance. Does this work - are the results reasonable?

It seems to me that earth resistance in isolation is not all that valuable -
the ratio of radiation resistance to earth and total loss resistance feels
more useful.

Dexter, your HBG plot is most interesting and shows a greater stability of
signal strength over the night period than on 136kHz. This implies that a
cross-band QSO/HF would be possible even with the long transmission times
associated with 73kHz experiments.
Furthermore, the way you have made this information available makes it very
useful for real time monitoring of conditions.
What signal strength level on your plot indicates an 'opening' on 72kHz?
Does the Rugby RTTY station on 73.2kHz follow the same pattern?

Hi all, Finbar EI0CF measured one of our spiral evolutions under several
different weather conditions. Finbar's site is right on the shore of
Trawbreager Bay  so he has sea water close at hand. When we had increased
the top load the ground loss was ultimately reduced to about 20 ohms in
normal (dry) conditions. As one might expect when it was actually raining, a
high loss resistance was measured. (There would have been a water film over
the plastic coated wire used. ) This loss reduced immediately the rain
stopped, but the loss resistance still remained about twice the normal "dry"
value. Even long after the rain has ceased the loss stayed high whilst the
ground was still freshly wet. The measured loss did not return to normal for
about 24 hours afterwards.

I assume fresh rainwater has a high permittivity and also a high resistance.
Over time salts will disolve into the wet mass reducing its resistivity.

These measurements are still in my file as I had not yet decided how to
explain the results. However in view of "corroborating" evidence I will see
if I can pull then together. All measurements were done using a simple RF
bridge described on my web site.

The HBG plotting is now running on a complete dedicated system.  The
graph is now calibrated and reads actual input power into the 75 ohm
terminated input of the HP SLM.  I finally figured out how to use the
100 db dynamic range of this instrument.  The output tracks perfectly
with Spectrum Lab.  The antenna is a 3.3 meter square loop with no
amplification.  

The plot is uploaded every 5 minuets to:

http://www.w4dex.com/75khz/hbg.jpg

The daily plot will be stored in the 75 khz directory at:

http://www.w4dex.com/75khz/

If there is blank data for a period it will probably be due to shutting
down during thunderstorms.  

I would like to run on this signal through the winter solstice.  Then I
could change to whatever signal is deemed to be useful.

Comments and or suggestions will be appreciated.

My thanks to Wolf for Spectrum Lab and his assistance.

Dear all.

I have just received a message from Hube F6CWA.
He will be on 136 from Dec 28th to Jan 5th with "new crystals". He is
looking for as many QSOs as possible on CW and QRSS. His locator is JN24NI.

By the way... I shall be in GM over this period so look out for GM3YXM/P as
well!

Hi Alan and group,

thanks for the fb report and pics about my tests and QSO with OH1BS on 137.0kHz yesterday night.

Though I normaly really dislike the cold weather (as does my 17-year-old Golf Diesel which is supposed to take me to work), the one good thing about frost is the improving LF-antenna performance. Series loss resistance goes down by 1 to 2dB, and surprisingly, in addition to that I seem to get another 1dB from increased effective antenna height, as measured by comparing received voltage against a non-resonant loop. There are a few high fir trees in the vicinity of the aerial, and I assume that under heavy frost, the shunt conductance of the trunks falls below the capacity of the tree crowns, so that electrostatic shielding is significantly reduced.

In yesterday's tests, I got up to 2.7A into the 220pF top load from 160W, but visible corona appeared at the ends of the thin wires (two parallel lines of 0.5mm enameled copper having U-shaped end connections). After adding extra short pieces of crosswire at the end of the leg that was most affected, I can now safely run 2.5A (about 13kVeff).

Still amazed that Peter manages to get up more than 4A at 73kHz ;-)

73 es all the best
Markus

And don't forget the 144MHz programmable repeater shift for listen though on 
MB7LF.
Or the 100 Hz  digital voice option :-|

Yaecomwood has what you are looking for. Check out FT-IC-TS-136K,
a nice handheld transceiver with 25,000 memories, 1MW output and an
integrated CFA antenna. Batteries included. Soft carrying case, DTMF
microphone and rechargeable battery + charger are available as optional
accessories...

Hi all, Ah I just answered my own question as the local noises drifted away
I realised i could copy the "marks" at about S6 and then a CW ID and it was
Markus DF6NM.
I dont know whether he was working anyone as I did not fire up SpectrumLab.

Cheers de Alan G3NYK

Hi all I am receiving a very strange signal on 137.00 it is about 1Hz wide
and has all the look on Argo of a PSK signal. It is not very strong but it
is under some fairly heavy local qrm. Vy interesting.

If anybody use CFA he realy need 1 MW TX for 5 W ERP. hi... hi... hi...

With normal antenna 5 or 10 kW seems to be adequate. If antenna is

I get these kinds of requests quite often from college students who have 
been assigned some end-of-year thesis, and have no idea what this is all 
about !

The best solution I have found so far is to suggest that they purchase 
(in this case) the RSGB LF Handbook, or the ARRL Handbook for questions 
of a more general nature  :-)

Good signals from G3AQC and G3LDO into North Carolina last night on 72.4
KHz even with moderate QRN.

One capture with notes can be seen at:

http://www.w4dex.com/argo/11dec02/72khz11dec02.jpg

The overnight captures are posted in a directory at:

http://www.w4dex.com/argo/11dec02/

Maybe there are other signals there that can be identified by their
owner.

BTW, this reception was made with the recently repaired SPM-19.  Thanks
again Jim!

I got this mail as well.
1 MW sounds interesting for 5W ERP. Is he using a CFA?

Guillaume,

I am sending a copy of your question to me to the LF group, as there are
many far better qualified to help including professional engineers in this 
area.

I am sure you will receive any help available by direct e-mail.

With best wishes, Brian

Dear Sir,

i saw some pics of your incredible equipment (pics from year 2000) for LF 
operation.

As i am not a radio specialist, i need help: i have to setup tests for high 
power transmission in the 50--150 kHz range: i have to achieve 5 W ERP, 
with 1 MW or more amplifier output power.

Could you please tell me if you know any off-the-shelf (or easy to use) 
amateur equipment that would be suitable for doing that (even if i still 
have to customize the equipement) ?

Thank you very much,

Sincerely,

Guillaume

Sorry to have inadvertantly caused a problem. My ERP is so tiny that I
really didn't expect to achieve anything (though I have always attempted the
'impossible' in amateur radio and have sometimes been surprised by a
success). I can transmit anywhere in 0.25Hz steps, so I will try to avoid
72.401 in future.

In the meantime, I may be QRT for a while on 73kHz as my antenna current is
now zero. Not yet investigated yet but the antenna works fine on receive, so
I suspect that the FETs did not like 360s dashes!

I really like the Argo screen shots posted by W4DEX and W1TAG. They provide
almost real time feedback. Now I have an 'always on' connection to the web I
may try posting my own screen when the rig is not in use.

Agreeing with Peter and Laurie, I've got to say that it WAS an interesting
night. The Kp index was at 1.67 (per NOAA) through most of the period. I
didn't get home until 0200, and copy here had been poor to that point. It
looks like I had some local noise problems in the early evening here.

At 0245, while chatting with Dex, the signals just took off, and were
present all night. Nice roller coaster, Laurie!

The only constant so far is that Dex and I are unlikely to have good copy at
the same time. We're about 1000 km apart.

Looks like bad wx is coming in here tonight, with ice likely.

Hi Peter,
   I suspect that those error messages are caused by Argo 131 trying to 
interpret the settings
it finds in the registry, and which were meant for build 119, which you 
were using previously.
I coded a test for such cases inside the program, but maybe it fails to 
catch all the occurrences.

If you feel comfortable with editing the Windows Registry, you could try 
to delete the key :
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Argo]

If still it doesn't work, then further debugging will be needed.

Hi all,
Like Peter I found last night exciting. I saw good signals on Dex's capture
at 2350 when I was about to close down and go to bed. So I decided to stay
up !
I had tweaked  the trimmer that tunes the xtal in the DFCW oscillator, in
order to avoid Mikes transmission.
This was a big mistake since the oscillator which has been stable for a year
or more started to drift up and down. This was worsened when I decided at
about 0240 to shift down again to get into Johns passband. Still good
captures from both John and Dex. Interesting to see that signals a bit
stronger at Johns location (a lot nearer than Dex), first time I have had
reports from two T/A locations at the same time. Thanks also to Jose and
Alberto for reports. Will have to check Kp for the period.
Now I have to stabilise that oscillator, don't think I will shift again !
looks like I'm stuck at  .401
.Now I need some sleep !!! I finally got to bed about 0400 (transmission
ceased at 0640) but I would'nt have missed it .

That was quite an exciting night.
Started transmitting at 2200 on Tuesday night and later was getting reports
from John and Dex through their website postings. I decided to go to bed at
0100 and went down to the transmitter shed and switched off the PA and
exciter PSU. Came back into the house shack and checked the web sites only
to find good signals from Laurie and myself on the screen. Hurriedly
switched the transmitter back on and found the exciter on 72.4007. after
half an hour it was getting back to its nominal frequency of 72.4004
antenna.
By 0200 I was getting really tired and was considering leaving the
transmitter on while I went to bed and decided on a final check.
I looked through the back window of the house and was alarmed to see a
flickering red glow coming from the direction of the loading coil. It turned
out to be coming from the garden of the house bejond the thick tall hedge
the other side of the coil and was caused by a 10ft high internally
illuminated inflatable Father Christmas bobbing about in the wind. The kind
of Christmas tack that people festoon their houses with is getting a bit
silly!
I left the transmitter on all night and both John and Dex were receiving
signals until after it got ligh here in the UK. I shut down at 0845 and John
received the last 'O'.

Regards,
Peter, G3LDO

Hi all...

After a few months of QRT, I'm back on 136kHz. I'll be on the band this
weekend (CW and QRSS) again. Any skeds are welcome.

Best regards...73 de Rich OM2TW

Good signals from both G3LDO and G3AQC tonight on 73kHz.<br>
>>From the capture it looks like G3AQC had a slight frequency stability <br>
problem at the beginning of the tranmission.<br>
<br>
This time I used the 20m rotatable dipole, which, being higher, picks<br>
up almost no man-made noise on LF.<br>

Hi Dex,
I see from your 2350 capture that you are getting some of my transmission
also traces of Peter,so I will continue to transmit for a few hours (all
being well) hoping that things will pick up. Running 4.8 amps into 13m high
vertical with big top load.

Hi All:

Very strong signals, as usual, from Peter on 72400.37 and Laurie on 72401.24
for dots and 72401.33 for dash. Laurie´s signals has initial drif and are
out of the John´s passband.

Mike and Peter,

I completed the move of my best receive loop to hopefully a quieter
location.  It is now about 100 meters from the house.  I am still
receiving QRN from a few storms about 500 km to my south east. However
the strikes are not very frequent so maybe if your signals do make it
this far Argo will be able to pull them out.  

I will do periodic uploads of my screen to:

http://www.w4dex.com/argo/72khz.jpg

The window I am watching is 72.4000 to 72.4015

GL,
Dex

Hi Alberto

I got round to downloading Argo 131 at last but I when I start up I get the
message

" is not a valid integer

The screen display is then shown and when a signal is input to the soundcard
the green signal level indicator works but the waterfall display does not. I
then get the message

log 10 DOMAIN error.

I get the same message when I loaded Argo 131 on to my laptop. Both machines
are older Pentiums that run Argo 119 OK

Regards,
Peter, G3LDO

On the third attempt, MI0AYZ and I have completed a two-way 73kHz QSO
using QRSS10. We are both running QRP at around 25mW ERP. This brings my
two-way country total to 4 (G, GD, GU and GI) which I believe is a record
for this band. As far as I know, only one other country has been active -
GW - but I could not have worked that station because it was me! Ian has
generated some much needed interest in the band recently, and he has almost
run out of people to work.

Drunk with this success, and very much as a long shot, I will transmit 'XDV'
for DX viewers at the same time as Peter tonight at 2200 on 72.401kHz. This
will take just over an hour at QRSS120. My best one-way DX has been IK5ZPV
who copied my QRSS3 a couple of years ago at 1200km.

Hi Mal and all,

Surprised to see this made almost in your backyard!
Looks awesome, though. Found photos of both versions at
http://home.t-online.de/home/Hbusch/ee430.htm

I bought a couple of receivers today for LF one is a empfanger
recepteur Blu EE 430 and what a performer on LF. the other is
a Plessey PR 1551G also good on LF. I am getting to the stage
now where I can almost hear stations before they come on air !!!!!!

We all know German technology and workmanship is excellent
and the EE 430 all labelled in German is wonderful and one
would think made there but there was a surprise when I
noticed a label on the back saying something different.
I thought I had seen this model before under a different
name and I was correct. Please guess where it was made,
and I am sure some will already know.

Peter,

> I will be on 72.4004kHz from 2200 for a couple of hours.

I will leave the receiver and screen capture runnning, with posts at the
usual:
http://webpages.charter.net/w1tag/cap-1.jpg

Captures will be every half hour, at :00 and :30. There is some chance of
the FTP process bogging down, but it's worth a shot.

Thanks for the report Alberto.

k index now very low. Unfortunately it seems John will not be available
tonight and Dex has some lightning storms to the south. Still, if the k
index is very low it is worth transmitting. What about 136kHz?
I will be on 72.4004kHz from 2200 for a couple of hours.
Did an RF cirrent test on the antenna this morning at 0900 and it was 4
amps. These ups and downs of current seem to correlate with the tides - I
will make the data available when I have made more measurements.

Peter, G3LDO

I shut down the transmitter at 0100 and went to bed. Woke up at 0300 and
couldn't get back to sleep. Checked the transmitter antenna current and it
was 5amps! High tide was at 0250.
E-mailed Dexter (John having shut down due to QRM) and he is now looking.
Now transmitting, frequency 72.4005.

Thanks to John and Dex for monitoring the signal frequency.

I am shutting the transmitter down now at 0100. Will be on at around 0515 to
test the enviorionment theory.

> My! that's quick feedback. My frequency counter says 72.40043

John's recordings show the usual after midnight fade. I have just been down
to the transmitting shed and all looks OK except that the antenna current is
down.
I am not sure what causes the variation in current but the transmitter
parameters are stable so the change must be due to environmental effects. I
checked it at 1600rs today and the antenna current was up to 4.6amps. All
this evening the current has been around 3.9amps during the test
transmissions.
The weather is stable with a cold dry eastern wind - temperature in shack
around 1 degree c.
I have noticed these changes before and its not to do with day or night.
When I was last seen in the USA the current was up to 4.3 amps.
I am looking at tide tables! The sea is about 400m south of my QTH

Peter, G3LDO

Think you figured the cost in watt-hours not kW-hours. Should be 63.750
kw-Hrs or about $6.

Hi Mal,<br><br>
Thew main difference between ARGO and most other software (including QRS)
is that these last are running idle 99% of the time, so they cause hardly
any &quot;CPU load&quot;. ARGO on the contrary does a lot of maths and
soundcard I/O transfer, so it can be a heavy load to the CPU especially
at slower machines (166MHz may sound fast, but 2.5GHz and more is todays
standard).<br>
It may help if you can turn off any other software (don't forget all the
stuff that is started when you launch Windows).<br><br>
73, Rik<br><br>

Removing Sleet from Antenna.--One of the most interesting features of the
station is the method by which sleet, that might form on the 25 miles of
aerial wire in each aerial, is removed. With an antenna of such
magnitude, the question of sleet on the wires is serious. This is taken
care of by passing a current of 250 amperes at 1,500 volts through the
antenna wires. Sufficient heat is generated to melt even the most severe
ice formations on the wires in ten minutes. Small high-capacity
condensers are connected in series with the antenna and tuning coils, to
prevent the heat producing current from becoming grounded. The condensers
have sufficient resistance to the 60 cycle current used for the above
purpose, but readily allow the high-frequency current of the transmitter
to pass through.</font></blockquote><br>
Maybe efficient, but for sure it is expensive : 250 ampere x 1500 volt x
0.17 hour = 63750 kWh<br>
Don't know what a kWh costs in the US, but here it is about 0.1 Euro
(same in $). So getting rid of the ice costs well over 6000 Euro (or
$).<br><br>

Thanks Peter, you were getting me a LOT better than I was getting you, from
the capture. I did a capture of you while you were up to an O but now cannot
find it in the machine to send to you.. No doubt another instance of finger
trouble. It was good to make the contact and I am impressed with the JPEG. A
case of "could do better" on my receive side I'm afraid. My screen tends to
look like a blizzard even on QRSS10.
The best signal I had from you was the very long dash you sent while testing
your TX -and that was while I was playing with Spectrogram before you
telephoned!

Best 73,

Ian.

I had some problems with earlier builds, mostly after many captures, but
found they were in my own computer. After cleaning out several hundred (or
maybe thousand) accumulated redundant files and adding more RAM there are no
more crashes. As a bonus everything runs faster.
One problem (misleading calibration marks on the 'whole band' scale) baffled
me but was solved by Alberto (I was using large font, which obscured some
marking).
No problems with 130/131. The whole thing is wonderful.

The fix worked well. We had a QSO at 1630 today on 71.7kHz. Ians's signal
shown in the attachment (if it gets through) is using 10sec dots and he is
clearly an 'O' in spite of heavy local QRM. I was using 3 sec dots but only
got an 'M'. The line just above 71.7 is my exciter. . Other lines are Loran,
which isn't so bad on this band.

<HTML><FONT FACE=arial,helvetica><FONT  SIZE=2 FAMILY="SANSSERIF" FACE="Arial" LANG="2">Hi Dexter,<BR>
<BR>
 no, even though I would like to, I cannot confirm this. I compared your image to the SpecLab captures taken during transmit; around 4:10 I was in an "F" and then "6", which clearly does not match. We could however verify a chunk in an image taken by John W1TAG at 6:45, shortly before sunrise. Will try to make the rest of the way next time...<BR>
<BR>
Thanks very much anyway, these screenshots are truely appreciated here.<BR>

Dave's signal was identifiable here last night.  Looks like the Kp
briefly dipped to 2 about this time.

See Dave's signal at:

http://www.gostanly.com/w4dex/argo/g3yxm08dec02.jpg


Markus's frequency was active.  Maybe this is his signal mixed with
noise.

Yes.
I went for broke and it broke!
40A car fuse run at 60A has to give eventually, and now I can't get it out
of the socket.. A job for tomorrow.
Goodnight all.

Yes. Dex had better copy of him than I did, right up to the end. "End" being
defined as a blown fuse, according to Dave!

No sign of your signal thus far, Markus. I'll keep receiving, though.

And the UFO in the 0000 capture was me double checking the frequency with my
exciter.

I can just see my transmission on your 2300 grab ( at "799.7"). Too fast to

I have just had the shack/office redecorated and carpeted (luxury at last).
During this time all the computer and ham radio gear had to be dismantled
although I did manage a contact on 73kHz from the garden shed on Tuesday.
The shack is now back together but I wont be transmitting on 73kHz tonight -
we have visitors and 73kHz transmissions require some degree of supervision
due to the very high voltages on my small antenna.

Will be monitoring the k index more closely in future!

Regards,
Peter, G3LDO

135.922 khz is well outside the bandpass of SXV. I am surprised you did not
know this!!!

if all goes well I'll give it a go tonight after 22:00, on the old frequency pair 135922.3 / 922.4 DFCW, 60s on / 20s off. Though I guess I'd need that miracle, with dipole-ERP still 180mW; but hopefully there will be some stronger signals coming along for company...<BR>

Hi All,
Many thanks for the reports and captures, John, Dex and Jay. Nice to get
something through to Dex at last, pity I had a fault,things may have
improved later.
Actually the fault was silly, not the antenna.. A BNC connector on the DFCW
oscillator box making intermittent contact.The tiny vibration of the DFCW
relay was enough to cause the contact to fail. By such simple things are
great enterprises brought to naught,or words to that effect.
I would like to see some activity on 136 tonight so I will stay off 73.
Actually we are out until about 00:00 UTC.
I will check the reflector then.and if no postings could transmit for a
little while on 72.401.
Best of Luck.
Laurie.

Hi Mike and all, I dont think we need bother too about SXV when we are on
135.922. When I was logging that station I could make accurate level
recordings with youself, Jim,  Peter and Laurie all pounding away (very
strong with me) on or around 920 to 925. That was with an "amateur grade" RX
as well. Markus gets a big signal from it hence the extra sidebands we dont
see, but I think even he is sufficiently far from the service area to not
cause any problems.

However fortunately it went off in the early hours of the morning so that
doesnt really apply.

Good luck all. I dont have any real propagation data but I think conditions
should not be too bad.....indeen to judge by the strength of Lauries signal
with John last night it might be a good night.

Hi Dick, yes Gus has been putting a good signal into the UK for a week or
two now. I have seen him on a number of afternoons during the week. he was
about 56/79 (despite fairly heavy TV qrm here) the other afternoon, but not
getting any answers. He seens to usually show up around 136.5 to 136.5 I
think.

Markus,

When you wrote 'first and second sidebands, I assumed you meant Mark and
Space, but obviously not. My mistake. You are probably right that this won't
cause any problems.

The 136kHz band is shared with commercial users on a 'non-interference'
basis. Even if we think our signals are too tiny to make a difference, we
should not be deliberately operating within the passband of the users of
SXV. There is plenty of space elsewhere on the band.

Markus,

>And how about some more activity around 135922? It's right in the gap
between the first and second FSK-sidebands of SXV. Anybody interested in
joining in tonight?<

I'd be happy to watch from here. It was a lot of fun to watch activity there
last winter, particularly when you could see four or five signals at once.
I'd suggest 135.922 +/- 1.5 Hz, which would fit into an ARGO 60 second
screen.

On the down side, the Kp index has climbed back up, so miracles may not be
possible.

John Andrews, W1TAG

I copied a few good elements of your signal about 0130.  Saw traces of
your signal at other times.  Thanks for the transmission.

Lost the signal just after posting my last message at 0130. Ended with a
"Q".

Hi John and all,
Sorry am having to close down there is an intermittant antenna fault.
Thanks for the captures they look good.
Will report on problem in the morning.
Good night,  Laurie.

Laurie's still looking good at 0130 UTC. There was a fade about 20 mins ago,
but the signal has come back.

Hi John, and Laurie, I only normally see the ol' dog-bone on very strong
signals. Which suggests that Laurie is quite a good signal again tonight. I
have kept silent this time as I am not really sure what is happening on the
propagation front, but it should be reasonable, based on the lack of major
geomagnetic events in the last 14 days. I have been looking at SXV (135.8)
over the past few nights but the plot is very confusing and I dont really
know what to read from it. It could be indicating a lot of multi-path
propagation and so several different order hop numbers, even at 2300kms.
This could mean low attenuation and the possibility of constructive
enhancement, over a long path...... but  who knows ??. I am not even sure
SXV is transmitting a constant power level, as they seem to be in a test
mode.

I wonder whether anyone is logging HBG over that side as well tonight ?

Great job, well done.....again.
Cheers de Alan G3NYK

Screen captures of  72.400 to 72.401 kHz are being posted at :15 and :45 at:

http://webpages.charter.net/w1tag/cap-1.jpg

The "800" = 72.400 fairly exactly.

Great signal, Laurie! I can't ID the signal at 72.40028 kHz yet, though.
Peter?

I'm just seeing the end of Laurie's AQC ID on 72.4009 kHz. Excellent signal,
with little "dogbones" at the end of the characters! Screen shot coming
shortly.

Back in business again, thanks to GI1PHF, who got the bits PDQ. Only one
device had popped, and that had happened because I did not notice that a
croc clip had become unhiched. Its funny, innit, how it's always the silly
little thing that catches you out.

Your comments noted Mal, but the repair only cost about a fiver for bits,
and maybe a quart of coffee. Besides, it gave me a chance to practice
soldering. My frugal Ballymena soul balks at using any more than the minimum
amount of resources required, and there is five years of intermittent abuse
to reckon in as well. Think total cost of effort and ownership my boy!
After that report you gave me I suppose we'd better have a qso some time.

Anyone for a Sunday morning sked?

Most of us have seen it before and probably will again.  But for those
who haven't seen the results of freezing rain here's a directory which
contains a few of the many pictures I taken in the past several days.

http://www.gostanly.com/w4dex/pix/ice/

Your being able to access the server greatly depends on the current
state of the local power source and the current conditions of the UPS
batteries.  Our power is back but the grid is occasionally being turned
down as other area are repaired.  One estimate is that two million
customers have experienced commercial AC power loss.  Presently the sun
is shinning and the ice is melting.

Great, Tom.
 Who develops a device, that - let´s say 1000 times per second - asks all
FETs  "are you ok?" and - if not - connects another one to the transmitter?
We also need a display, that shows the remaining number of FETs, so the OM
can refill the stock just in time.

Dear LF Group,

I'm afraid I will be away from home this weekend, so will not be able to

I changed one in the middle of a 35wpm normal CW QSO, AND we were using
full break-in QSK!

Hi John/Lloyd,
The Kp level looks nice and low so I will be on tonight.
Freq. 72.401Khz, going to try DFCW again  with 0.1 Hz shift 180sec element
length (use 120sec Argo) to LOOK
Hi.
>From recent plots it seems as  though the 0300/0400 peak is the best but I
will start at 2200 UTC anyway.
Yes I realise Dex is having problems with Ice etc hope it soon clears up.
73 Laurie.

Dear LF Group,

My colleague Dave Lauder, G0SNO, has spent some time investigating ADSL and 
similar, and has occasionally discussed this in his EMC column in RadCom. 
Apparently, the idea is that so long as the phone line is accurately 
balanced, the differential-mode ADSL signal will generate minimal radiated 
QRM. However, unbalance in the phone line or its termination will lead to 
"mode conversion" producing common mode signals which can be radiated. This 
is not too much of a problem for the phone line itself, basically a twisted 
pair, but once it gets into the house, the UK phone extension wiring uses a 
3 wire system which is inherently unbalanced. A splitter which separates 
out the ADSL and phone signals where the phone line comes into the building 
ought to minimise this, so the major concern is "splitterless" ADSL, which 
may be the same as the "wires only" installation that was talked about.

I expect that, like most EMC issues, how much of a problem it actually is 
will depend on the individual phone installation, how close it is to the LF 
antenna, and the transmission characteristics of that particular phone line 
to the exchange etc. I guess it would be mostly a near field source of QRM 
rather than actually radiating - but with overhead phone lines, "near 
field" could cover a wide area - probably your neighbor's ADSL would be 
more of a concern then - you can't just unplug it!

Cheers, Jim Moritz

I'll be happy to look (listening would be fruitless!). I will be home around
2230. The usual 72.401?

W4DEX may not be available for this one, as he's still recovering from the
ice storm. Otherwise, I'll put the word out over here.

Hi all,

ZL6QH is planning LF beacon transmissions for 27, 28 and 29 December.  This
is the weekend between Christmas and New Year (also summer holiday time
downunder :-)  Sunset at ZL6QH is nominally 0752 UTC, and sunrise nominally
1655 UTC for those days.  As for previous beacon tests, the format is FSK
transmission with 137.7890/137.7886 kHz, 120 second dot length, with
identifier QQQQQ....

73, Bob ZL2CA

The Kp index has been slowly dropping this week. As of this writing, it is
below 2.0. Maybe with a little luck, the evening of 6-7 Dec would be
interesting for a 73 or 136 kHz T/A test?

Laurie,

We are experiencing a major ice storm here in NC.  The AC power was lost
due to falling tree limbs about 3 a.m. local time.  The server, which is
also at my location, is on a UPS but it will only run the server a few
hours.  I had terminated the HGB plot prior to finally loosing AC
because the antenna was icing up and the signal level was falling.  Also
the AC power was hitting several hours before it finally failed.  Now at
3 p.m. local time the AC power has been restored but may fail again at
any time.  There was hardly no melting of the ice during the day and the
temp is now falling with the trees still loaded with ice.  If the wind
starts blowing we are in for more trouble.  We have tons of broken limbs
on the ground all around the house but so far only minor roof damage. 
The loop antenna was damaged but should be easy to repair. It will be
several days at best before I will be able to resume monitoring and
posting the plots.

73,
Dex

Ian, by the time you fix that old beast you could build a robust YXM OR MRF
hi power mosfet amp that would virtually be impossible to ZAP.
I built a YXM type with some mods some years ago and it is still going
strong and no blown fets.
I use 4 x 75N10 devices ie each one 75 amps at 100 volts. I use about 16
volts and they run just warm. Its the same story with the old Decca Jeep, by
the time you modify it by rewinding coils and constructing the relay
switching etc you could build a custom tx at about the same power out in far
less time.

Hi Markus and all,

Interference to LF reception by DSL:  The +12 dBm figure is total power.
I believe that the spec requires the PSD to be a maximum of -30 dBm/Hz;
looks like my modem is running about -34 dBm/Hz.  It's possible that
some providers run illegal power on noisy lines (sound familiar?).  A
typical CPE ADSL line driver can put out 40 V p-p differential into 100
ohms.  If there are 20 upstream bins, linear operation would entail no
more than 2 V p-p per bin, which corresponds to about -26 dBm/Hz.  The
above figures assume spectral peaks 3 dB above the average.

Even at the higher figure, I would think that with Cat-5 cable from the
modem to where the aerial or underground phone cable enters the house,
you should be fine, as long as your antenna was at least a few meters
from the Cat-5, and you put the DSL low pass filter near the cable entry.
If you still had trouble, I would first suspect the SMPS for the modem!

Interference to DSL downstream from LF Tx:  I agree with Markus that
DSL is very robust; disruption of TCP traffic is extremely unlikely.
If your application is harmed by individual lost packets, e.g. Internet
telephony, then you might lose a little audio each time your Tx keys on :)

73,

Stewart KK7KA

Yes (or should that be no?) I can't look at the picture of the the crowbar
and hammer either :-(
I get error 404, page not found.
Maybe the State-side Internet is in bed, asleep at the moment ?

Hi Laurie and all,

Well, that URL is incorrect, Dex's data is on www.gostanly.com .  But the
host seems to be down or off the Net; the last responses to traceroute
from various locations shows:

 9  modempool-f010.rt03.cncrnc.ctc.net (166.82.238.16)  63.523 ms  65.546 ms  63.172 ms
10  166.82.103.146 (166.82.103.146)  67.765 ms  67.135 ms  67.964 ms

The 166.82 net belongs to Vnet in Huntersville, NC, US, so it seems that
the trouble is pretty close to Dex.

--Stewart

If I recall correctly, UK practice was to run Strowger (TXS),
reed-electronic (TXE) and crossbar (TXK) exchange equipment all off 50V dc.
I do not know what later technologies such as System X used, but I believe
there was a Health and Safety aspect which would tend to encourage the use
of lower rather than higher voltages. Does anybody have more recent
knowledge of this?

Hi all,

Teletron LWF45

In answer to my question Dick kindly gave me this information:

I have no circuit diagram either.  But I found that by applying about 30mV 
to the left contact of one of the crystal sockets (and selecting that one 
....) I got the same output as when using the internal VFO. The IF is 
30kHz. I tested it on DCF39 by injecting 168.8kHz as local oscillator 
signal  from an HP 606B signal generator.

Good luck! It is an fb receiver with its excellent front end selectivity.

73, Dick, PA0SE

P.S. It may be useful to put this message on the reflector.


Sound Blaster AudioPCI 128 (model 4810 on pcb)

Having spent three frustrating days trying to install two of these cards on 
two different computers
to work with SpecLab, which I had already had working for over a year 
previously,  I found that
the driver:

Creative Sound Blaster AudioPCI (WDM)

supports the two cards on my system.  Hope this may save somebody 
frustration and time.

... we should include a figure in our TMO/RST system, indicating the number
of FETs that we have burned in our LF PAs. I then probably would sign
"569-24"  ...    ;-)

Ian, good luch with your repair work, I have heard about people getting so
competent in changing FETs that they have done this within the QSO
partner's over in the middle of a QRSS-QSO.

Not quite what you asked, but it may be helpful: I use a cable modem here
(from NTL) which gives me 'always on' at 128kb (upgradable easily to 1Mb)
which seems to be four times faster than my '56k' dial-up. The modem is 1m
from my LF Tx and 4m from the antenna. I have so far not experienced any
problems to or from my LF station. Of course the cable is coaxial which
helps. The modem is in a plastic case, but this is silver coloured and may
have some metallic properties.

<BR>
the Burg telecontrol transmitter on 138830 has gone off air a few minutes ago (08:00UT). That was preceded by a period of time where it transmitted a denser sequence of telegrams than DCF49, instead of the usual master-slave synchronism with 60ms delay.<BR>

The upper part of band is much more quiet without the Luxembourg IM.<BR>

Greetings All.

Maybe I can add a tiny bit of information to this discussion.  Back when we 
started ADSL with the HDSL work in 1987 we quickly learned that the UK had 
a special problem (through the work of British Telecom) because of the very 
wide use of QUAD wire in the distribution plant.  QUAD was four wires twist 
wound uniformly together rather than two pairs, each twisted independently.

This caused the much modified ISDN (2B1Q and 4B3Q codes) based HDSL/ADSL 
and the multi tone modes (now almost the universal way to go) to have a 
special lower bit rate option for use in the UK.  I was able today to find 
one of the current popular ADSL chip sets, in this case a multi tone type, 
and I see a four pins out of well over a hundred that "implement the UK 
option" so this must still be an issue in the UK.

At the end of the day, this means the UK will have a large extra power 
bulge at the very low frequencies.  Beyond this, there were tests done in 
1990 that showed the proposed 2B1Q and multi tone models would not reach 
any where close to the range on UK QUAD wiring.

One final point, if you doing the ADSL setup yourself.  The North American 
ADSL/HDSL systems are largely line powered.  It takes a major effort to 
deliver 1W of DC to the far end of a long local loop so they regularly see 
both sides of the 120VDC office battery for a total of nearly 250 V DC on 
the loop from the central office.  This can cause some very strong 
reactions when ones fingers get into the stuff so if your doing it yourself 
it is best to be careful, many of us have forgotten how to live with higher 
voltages with all this 5 and 12 v stuff hi.

Good Luck....

<BR>
most of the messages in this thread have focussed on potential interference from the LF-TX to the ADSL connection. Being digital, I would assume that below a certain threshold there would be no noticable interference at all, and even above that level, error correction protocols and adaptive channel allocation would make it relatively robust.<BR>
<BR>
However, the emissions from an inadequately shielded ADSL line could be a significant noise source for LF reception. - The background noise level here on a quiet day is around -25dBuV/m in 1Hz, which on the terminals of my Marconi (having -31dB efficiency) is about -107dBm/Hz or -81dBm/4kHz. Stewart's log excerpt indicates a modem power of 12dBm, is that power per channel? If so, the isolation between ADSL and the LF antenna would have to be better than 93dB, which seems fairly demanding. With small receive loops in the vicinity of the wiring, the situation could be even worse.<BR>
<BR>
As I am still using plain old analog telephony and a V.90 modem here, this is only a rough theoretical estimate, and I wonder if somebody has experienced any problems in actual practice.<BR>
<BR>

If you want to do the wiring yourself, I would highly recommend this
approach:

1. From the telephone company demarcation point, run a Cat 3 or Cat 5 cable
to the DSL modem. Use one pair in the cable to complete the DSL connection.
The nicely twisted computer cable should be much better at preventing
egress/ingress of unwanted signals than the conventional red/green untwisted
house wire.

2. At the demarcation point, install the filter that separates the baseband
phone signal, and connect the rest of the household phone wiring to the
output of the filter.

John

This is actually an important topic, since our own
installation, or that or our neighbours may have an
impact on operating.

To clarify Dave's point, the service provider ownes
the first point of attachment in the home, so only they
can legally replace this for an ADSL suitable interface
(even assuming that you can get one).

In my case, the ADSL entered the house via an overhead
line, and then crossed within the outer area of the
loft to the interface box. At this point it was within
15 feet of my G5RV which I occasionally used on 136KHz.

What you might be able to do on your own installation
is to put the ADSL router on the house master socket
and then put a low pass filter in line with the
telephone connection to the rest of the house. Presumably
you could use one of the socket filters to do this.

 I had a directional spectrogram running during the day. The unidentified carrier came on abt 7:35 and disappeared abt 13:40, frequency drifting slightly between 137607.3 and 137610.1Hz. It was strong here, around 29dBuV/m (!) and coming in from 170° (SSE) +-5°.<BR>
<BR>
SXV also came on with a carrier on 135.8kHz (DOA 135° = SE) at around 14:50, and turned on their traditional FSK since 17:20, which is much wider than the encrypted QPSK31 they were using last week.<BR>
<BR>
This weekend, the old FM spurs around DLF (153k) have returned as well, with wideband splatters around 136kHz, having a variable spectral density on the order of 11dBuV/m per 100Hz here. Extrapolated to about 4kHz total bandwidth, this would be 0.3W transmitted EMRP or -59 dBc below their 250kW nighttime power.<BR>

The SPM-19 lives!  Thanks to Jim Moritz, I was able to locate the
problem in the 40.01 MHz 2nd LO PLL circuit.  A 2N918 transistor on the
PLL board was open.  Replaced it with a NTE161 and now the VCO is
locked. A wandering VCO was causing the off frequency problem. 

Now to find holes for all those screws!  What a beautifully engineered
piece of equipment.

But they don't own the house wiring, do they?
Any good reason why you cannot install an 'engineer assisted' wiring
arrangement yourself, John?

 Here in ZL the 'engineer assisted' variation is one option- the other being
DIY-however and whatever you want-any and all resulting problems with either
service being yours to deal to as well!
 Naturally the recommended method is to replicate the 'engineer assisted'
installation but not all bother.

Just before I left Telecom NZ a month or two ago I had been carrying out
extensive testing into the vulnerability or otherwise of ADSL- believe me,
it is VERY robust, especially downstream. I expect your main problem at 136
kHz would be related to the susceptibility of the ADSL modem in the general
EMC sense, rather than any ADSL specific issues.

Hi Stewart - thanks for the interesting comments.  The position is that I'm
considering "buying" so can't do any tests.  Not sure if outside the UK xDSL
offerings use the same terms, thus

"Engineer assisted" = single filter at the telphone's master socket (where
the outside line to the service provider enters the house).  The filter
separates the ADSL signalling and data to a dedicated new cable that goes to
a new socket for the ADSL modem.  All existing telephone extension cables
have the ADSL signals removed from them.

"Wires only" = ADSL signals and data come into the house extension wiring
and up to each socket into which one plugs your telephone, fax, etc.  To
filter off the ADSL signal from these equipments you insert a filter into
the equipment socket.  Obviously for the ADSL modem you don't use a filter.

The former is quite expensive relative to the latter, and is the better
engineering solution.  What I'm really interested in before I "buy" is
whether anyone has experienced the "wires only" in close proximity to an
amateur LF station.  It would be nice to get away with the cheaper option,
which also has the flexibility in terms of service provider (only BT here in
the UK offers "engineer assisted" as they own the "local loop").

Apologies to all on the reflector who find the topic tedious - promise that
this will be my last posting to the reflector on the topic!

> I am using a Cisco 827-4V, which is a combination modem, router, and
> VOIP unit.  A portion of the result of a "show dsl interface atm0"
> command is shown below.  There are verbose details about signal and

> course be different.
>
> The 608 kbps (DS) and 160 (US) values allow for protocol overhead.
> You can see that this line could accommodate much higher speeds.
> On my unit, the downstream Noise Margin updates every few seconds,

Dear Matti,

At 16:38 04/12/2002 +0200, you wrote:
>I have SPM-19 too but without any manuals. Could you plase check what kind

The manual says " > 10kohm//60pF" in the infinite impedance position.

The additional attenuation caused by connecting this input across a 75 ohm 
system is specified as less than 0.05dB at frequencies up to 1MHz.

Cheers, Jim Moritz

Dear Jim,

I have SPM-19 too but without any manuals. Could you plase check what kind
of input  impedance is in "unbal 75" but selected without termination
(infinite). Instrument works great if not gone to couple of error states
caused by impurity in relay contacts (my guess).

A bit off topic, but maybe interesting for the weak signal enthousiasts :

                                                The Candlelight Award 
(2002-2003)

In the period november 2002 - april 2003 a number of ON stations, guided by 
ON5EX,  will do some low power tests on HF :

Date		UTC		Frequency	Callsign		Position (dec. degrees)	power (mW)	Mode
  24-11-2002	1800-2000	10140,17	ON5EX		50,979N:3,6945E	10		DFCW, shift 
10Hz, 10s dots
  08-12-2002	0530-0600	10145,00	ON5UK		50,989N:3,6345E	50		QRSS CW, 3s dots
  22-12-2002	1900-2000	7032,55		ON7YD		50,979N:4.708E		10		DFCW, shift 
10Hz, 10s dots
  05-01-2003	1900-2000	28060,00	ON4AXW	50,919N:3,7951E	10		QRSS CW, 3s dots
  19-01-2003	1800-2000	10140,17	ON5EX		50,979N:3,6945E	5		DFCW, shift 10Hz, 
10s dots
  02-02-2003	0530-0600	10145,00	ON5UK		50,989N:3,6345E	100		QRSS CW, 3s dots
  16-02-2003	1900-2000	7032,55		ON7YD		50,979N:4.708E		10		DFCW, shift 
10Hz, 10s dots
  02-03-2003	1900-2000	1839,00		ON4AXW	50,919N:3,7951E	100		Slowfeld 1.1, 2 
char/min
  16-03-2003	1800-2000	10140,17	ON5EX		50,979N:3,6945E	1		DFCW, 10Hz shift, 
10s dots
  30-03-2003	0530-0600	10145,00	ON5UK		50,989N:3,6345E	50		QRSS CW, 3 s dots
  13-04-2003	1900-2000	7032,55		ON7YD		50,979N:4.708E		10		DFCW, shift 
10Hz, 10s dots
  27-04-2003	1900-2000	21055,00	ON4AXW	50,919N:3,7951E	10		QRSS CW, 3s dots

All station will transmit their callsign followed by a 5 character code 
repeated 5 times.
eg. : ON7YD HELLO HELLO HELLO HELLO HELLO ...
In order to encourage QRPP and experimentation with new modes ON5EX will 
promote the "Candlelight Award". The appearance of the award will depend on 
the creativity and sense of humor of the organiser.

Reports :
- per e-mail to simplexp@pandora.be, not later than 1 week after each 
transmission.
- reports must include (at least) :
	1. Identification of the receiving station (call or name)
  	2. Your position in decimal graden (0,01 degree accuracy)
  	3. Date and UTC
  	4. Frequency (10Hz accuracy)
  	5. call of the transmitting station
	6. code
	Additional information (report, station description etc...) is welcome

Score
(Distance in km) x (number of correct copied characters in the code) / (TX 
power in W)
The final result is the sum of all scores.

I am sure that ON5EX will appreciate all reports even if you can only 
participate in 1 or 2 tests.

73, Rik  ON7YD

Hi John and all,

A few comments on measuring DSL interference effects:

Here in Paris, I have the cheapest ADSL service from France Télécom.
Advertised speeds are 512 kbps downstream and 128 kbps upstream.
I am using a Cisco 827-4V, which is a combination modem, router, and
VOIP unit.  A portion of the result of a "show dsl interface atm0"
command is shown below.  There are verbose details about signal and
noise in each bin which are not posted.  Your modem should have
similar information available, but the commands to show it will of
course be different.

The 608 kbps (DS) and 160 (US) values allow for protocol overhead.
You can see that this line could accommodate much higher speeds.
On my unit, the downstream Noise Margin updates every few seconds,
so one could easily test if transmitting LF causes it to degrade
(I don't have a transmitter here).  If your real-time S/N is not
displayed, then just reboot the modem with the transmitter on and
see if the value (derived during training) changes.

The DMT bins are 4 kHz each, so you can see that 136 kHz lands
well between the US and DS bands; any trouble would be caused
by harmonics.  IMO, interference to the upstream is very unlikely.
Moderate downstream interference will be corrected on the fly by
the Reed-Solomon code; check the error statistics.  Uncorrectable
errors are retried at the DSL level, and when that fails, at the
TCP level.  Before TCP gives up, the modem will renegotiate and
retrain with the DSLAM, resuming operation at a lower speed.

As a result, I doubt that you will see any TCP failures.  But
I am quite curious if LF transmission causes any Reed-Solomon
errors, or if the displayed downstream Noise Margin is reduced.

73,

Stewart KK7KA

Thanks for the comments guys - as I would expect all seems OK with the
"Engineer Installed". Does anyone have any experience of the "Wires only",
which to me seems more likely to be a problem?

No-one has commented on any degredation of data on the ADSL connection due
to LF transmitting equipment in the shack - maybe the TCPIP protocol to an
extent hides any effect.

Paul's comment below didn't seem to come through?

Ian and Mal,<br>
&nbsp; &nbsp;Compaq does use indeed, on some models, a customized version of <br>
Microsoft Windows. Unfortunately I don't own a Compaq PC, and none<br>
of my friends does, so I see a bit difficult for me to try to debug such
a<br>
compatibility problem.<br>
Probably the MMSYSTEM APIs used by Argo clash with some idiosyncrasies<br>
of that customized Windows version.<br>
<br>
At this point, I am sorry, but I have to declare myself unable to solve this
problem<br>
for lack of resources.<br>

Started sending QRSS3 at 0800 but had to close down at 0820 because I had to
go out.
When I came back the contractor was here to do some work in the shack/office
(I had forgotten about that) so was not able to get on 73kHz.
Moved the receiver to the transmitting shed at was on at around 1200 but
without my keyer or computer for QRSS. Sent a CQ using a hand key and was
answered by Dave G3YXM and exchanged 579 reports both ways. Strange
intermittent sound from Dave's transmitter - didn't realise his antenna was
on fire! He was a good readable signal on reduced power.

Peter, G3LDO

Dear LF Group,

I had CW QSOs with G3YXM and G3AQC on 73kHz, who were both 579. Also 
exchanged QRSS with MI0AYZ, who was an 'O' signal, but not really audible 
here. I was running about 1kW, with antenna current about 3A into an 
inverted V about 13m high at the apex. Thanks to the listeners for the reports.

At 12:04 03/12/2002 +0000, you wrote:
>I observed three fixed signals on the band:

All 3 signals here also. The "pips" have been audible on and off for at 
least a year or so here. I wonder if they could be some sort of intermod 
involving one of the standard time stations?

Thanks Jim, and all other readers of this reflector who have taken the 
time to answer my query. Your pointers were much appreciated

Hi Jim M0BMU/ Laurie G3AQC/ Dave G3YXM,

Heard the three of you at good strength this morning on 73kHz but no sign of
Ian GI0AYZ.

08-00 UTC G3AQC (RST589) in QSO with M0BMU (RST579)

08-25 UTC G3YXM (RST579) calling GI0AYZ (NR)

08-30 UTC G3YXM in QSO with M0BMU both RST579

All signals had relatively low QRN/QRM apart from a bit of local electrical
crud and a weak fluttery carrier on 71.95 kHz which may have been a RX
front-end intermod artifact.
  The antenna was an ex-Decca active antenna with only a 3ft whip up at only
20ft AGL feeding the prototype of Jim's LF preamp/upconverter outputting at
4MHz into the FT1000MP - the converter is doing a good job Jim!

I have finally got my 55ft wind-up aluminium scaffold pole mast back up in
the air again after the LF antenna system was wrecked during a storm earlier
this year. The 20m high tree tree holding one end of the antenna came
crashing down taking with it the top section of the 55ft mast and all the
guy ropes 150ft away at the far end of the garden because the 3-wire top
didn't break!

I hope to be QRV shortly again on 136kHz and also hopefully 73kHz.

                                Vy 73  de Derek Atter G3GRO,  QTH  Crawley,
West Sussex  IO91VC

I did not experience any problems with my ADSL connection John.
But indeed at least one of the ADSL internal channels is in the 137 kHZ LF

Jim,

Thanks for the info.  This SPM-19 does have the audio output circuit
which I suspect should produce a 1750 Hz audio tone when the unit is
tuned to an exact frequency.  I believe that was the standard BFO tone
for the SPM 16 and 17.  I did not know there was AGC in this circuit.  I
am presently using the HP-3686 for the HGB reception.  I am using the
demodulated audio on it which raises another question.  Perhaps it also
has some AGC at this point which could distort the level measurements. 
I will investigate that.

What I mean by this SPM-19 being off frequency is that it almost
produces a zero audio tone when the display is tuned to a signal instead
of the 1750 tone.  The 1.792 KHz offset is what the unit displays when
the AFC is activated.  Also when in the narrowest IF mode there is no
signal unless the unit is tuned up 1.792 KHz from the desired
frequency.  So wouldn't the frequency error be ahead of the IF filters?

Another problem just developed.  The IF mode is stuck in the 1.74 KHz
mode.  Moving the electronic selector to any other IF filter instantly
causes it to return to 1.74 KHz when the lever is released.  The unit
does not power up like I remember it doing when it was new.  It seems to
be searching for lock while producing noise in the audio output.  After
about 4 or 5 one second sweeps it will settle down but most of the time
an error code is displayed, 1--002.  Operating most any function switch
after that usually restores normal level and frequency display.  I see
several 2716 EPROMS on one board.  Could it be these chips are like me
..... loosing memory?

Dexter

Dear 73k chaps.

I will also be on but am unlikely to hear much until Rugby cuts carrier.
Last month it was about 0845.

Cheers.

"Engineer installed" here! There's no difference really. No interference
problems on any band but my telephone cables come in underground.

I never experienced any problem with engineer installed BT ADSL effecting
any radio, or visa versa. I was however on a relatively low-loss path
to the exchange, and so was operating at relatively low power. I am
told that when you turn of the ADSL modem, the system goes into a power
down state which is presumably even quieter, but my system was always left
on. I have since moved to cable, and that does not give any problem either.

Dear LF Group,

I will be taking a few hours off tomorrow morning to be QRV on 73k while 
Rugby is shut down (I hope!). I aim to be on at about 0800. If I can't hear 
anything at the lower band edge, I will try sending some QRSS at about 
71.9kHz, or wherever I find another signal.

Cheers, Jim Moritz

Dear Dex,

There are only 2 frequency conversions in the SPM19 - one to the 40MHz 
first IF (which is what the 40-65MHz LO signal does), and the second to the 
10kHz final IF. You could include a third conversion to get the demod audio 
out at 2kHz as I recall - but I don't think you could be using the audio 
output for level measurement because it has permanently-on AGC. So I guess 
the problem you have must lie in the 40MHz to 10kHz conversion oscillator

I have the circuit diagrams for the SPM19, so I will take a look and can 
send the relevant diagrams if neccessary. BTW, when you say the frequency 
is wrong by 1.792kHz, how are you measuring this? is it high or low? One of 
the manuals also contains a list of error messages, but they usually are 
not very helpful - 100 ways to tell you it isn't working!

Cheers, Jim Moritz

Can anyone advise on the basis of experience as to whether there are any
problems with either "Wires only" or "Engineer installed" ADSL installation
and the co-siting of one's LF station (or even HF Station come to that!).

Hi, Group.

Just now I had see someone FSK signal on 137066/137042 Hz. Unfortunely
I have notice only the end of transmission. So I do not know what is this.
What can it be?

I have a Wandel-Goltermann SPM-19 I would like to dedicate to the Spec
Lab plotting duties.  This unit has had a receive problem every since I
got it over ten years ago.  So I have primarily used it as a signal
generator since the generator output is very accurate and stable. 

I had the unit operating for a HiFer beacon this past summer when a
sudden thunderstorm developed.  Before I could disconnect any of my
radios lightning struck.  The SPM-19 was among several fatalities.  By a
stroke of luck I just recently was able to revived the SLM.  The power
supply had a shorted bridge rectifier module.  

Now I'm back to the original receive problem.  It appears some section
of the frequency synthesizer may be just on the edge of locking up. 
About half the time an error code is displayed when any function is
used.  When it does lock and appears to be working the frequency is off
by 1.792 Khz.  This holds true across the 0 to 25 MHz range.  The
generator output on the rear remains dead on the displayed frequency. 
What I guess is a LO signal, 40 to 65 MHz at a BNC connector on the
rear, also tracks with the display plus 40 MHz.

I see a lot of things to tweak on inside the unit but before I go for
broke and start fiddling with them I thought I would seek professional
help.  The cream of the crop is on this reflector!  Ideas?

W4DEX

Philips decided they didn't wish to fool around with coils of wire and 
lumps of hard grey stuff in the Information Age, so they spun off 
Ferroxcube, which is now owned by a corporation called Yageo. Extensive 
data on what was Philips ferrites (somewhat re-numbered) can be found on 
http://www.ferroxcube.com/.

<BR>Ahhhh. &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;I misunderstood your message Andre'
<BR>
<BR>I thought you wanted a comparison table. However, if you just need data then there is a 104 page selection guide downloadable as a 1.8MB .pdf file at the ferroxcube web site.
<BR>
<BR>just select products on the opening page and you will be offered the selection guide.
<BR>
<BR>http://www.ferroxcube.com
<BR>
<BR>If you need an example part number for a popular core &nbsp;then the 58mm 3c90 toroid used in several 1kW designs is........
<BR>
<BR>4330-030-3553 &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;or &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;TL58/41/18
<BR>
<BR>while the 42mm version used in the 300W transmitter in next month's Rad Com is
<BR>
<BR>4330-030-3552 &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;or &nbsp;&nbsp;TL42/26/13
<BR>
<BR>
<BR>The second part numbers refer to the physical size of the core.
<BR>TL (I believe is some form of toroid prefix)
<BR>42 &nbsp;outside diameter in mm
<BR>26 &nbsp;inside diameter in mm
<BR>13 &nbsp;thickness in mm
<BR>
<BR>The AL (nH) value for the 58mm core is about 2890 while permeability is apx 2300.
<BR>
<BR>Hope that is of use

Dear Andre,
there is no table of equivalency. Philips, Valvo, Ferroxcube (all the same company) produce ferrites, meanwhile Micrometals is manufacturing iron-powder cores. 
Amidon ferrites You can also find at Fair-Rite in US, Amidon powder cores at Micrometals. 

Have a look to the survey or selector chart in the manufacturer`s catalog to find out the fitting material for long-wave or short wave application. 
As a  rule of thumb is the material permeability is a hint for the desired frequency range.

urel = 80                   f= 3...30 MHz    73kHz....3 MHz also possible
          400...1000      f= 73 kHz....7 MHz
          2700               f=20 kHz...300kHz     
          5000...10 000 Audio frequency

More upon request.
55,

  <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Hello Dick, </FONT><FONT face=Arial 
  size=2>(and&nbsp;group)</FONT></DIV>
  <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT>&nbsp;</DIV>
  <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I've wound myself a coil on a bucket, the 
  inductance is a bit low at the moment, the whole thing resonates no lower 
  than&nbsp;250kHz at present - so I've some work still to do before I transmit. 
  I put lots of taps in, as suggested. </FONT></DIV>
  <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT>&nbsp;</DIV>
  <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>But I am puzzled. In the LF Experimenters 
  Handbook, at the end of the description of your loading coil, it says 
  </FONT></DIV>
  <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>"by short-circuiting turns at the top and bottom 
  end, inductance can be decreased in steps of one turn." Why short-circuit the 
  unused turns? Surely that is like having short-circuited turns on a 
  transformer and will make the coil very lossy ?</FONT></DIV>
  <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Why not just connect the vertical part of the 
  antenna to the appropriate tap, and leave the others open ?</FONT></DIV>

  <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Hi Hugh</FONT></DIV>
  <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT>&nbsp;</DIV>
  <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I am inclined to short cct the turns not used. I 
  did speak to an engineering consultant that builds linear amps at high powr 
  and he says it makes little difference whether the turns are shorted or left 
  floating. Take your pick and I dont suppose it makes a big difference which 
  method you use.</FONT></DIV>
  <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>It is probably better to avoid capacitors to 
  resonate the coil, just use the tap that gives min SWR</FONT></DIV>
  <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>and if you are using a 50 ohm tx o/p put a small 
  series coil in series &nbsp;with the bottom of the main&nbsp;coil to earth and 
  tap up the coax centre conductor from the earth end to get the perfect 
  1:1match, the earth braid of the coax goes to earth. This method does not 
  require any capacitor for tuning, therefore reducing any loss. </FONT></DIV>
  <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Avoid the tuning for max smoke that some suggest, 
  FET output transistors are very vunerable using this method, plus the fact 
  that RF metre readings are misleading using this method, they read the 
  reflected rf as well, so it is difficult to know what RF is actually going 
  out. </FONT></DIV>

    <DIV><BR></DIV><B>To All from PA0SE<BR><BR>I also use the series coil system 
    for tuning and matching the aerial to the 136kHz transmitter.<BR>The coil 
    was made by bolting four 1m long and 12.5cm diameter PVC pipes together and 
    putting on 200 turns of 1.4mm diameter copper wire with black PVC insulation 
    as used for house wiring. <BR>Inductance is 4.4mH and unloaded Q&nbsp; about 
    350.<BR>Starting from the top I made a tap at every 10 turns by putting a 
    twist in the wire. Heating with a soldering iron melts the insulation that 
    then easily comes off to&nbsp; bare the wire.<BR>The bottom 10 turns have a 
    tap at each turn. By short circuiting turns from the top and the bottom the 
    coil can be adjusted in steps of one turn. For fine tuning a variable 
    capacitor is in parallel with the coil. As this increases the current in the 
    coil and thus the loss in it (proportional to current squared!) I adjust the 
    coil so that only minimal capacitance is needed.<BR></B><IMG height=325

    width=118></B><BR><B>The capacitor shown started to arc over at 60W of 
    power. It was replaced by a vacuum capacitor rated at 5000V maximum.&nbsp; 
    When transmitter power was increased&nbsp; from 120W to 320W I connected the 
    capacitor over half the coil in order not to exceed&nbsp; the maximum 
    voltage.<BR><BR>The transmitter is connected to one of the turns at the 
    bottom end. I don't worry about SWR and simply select the tap giving maximum 
    aerial current (3A in dry weather).<BR><BR>A better picture of the coil 
    above can be found on page 62 of G3LDO's <I>The low frequency experimenter's 
    handbook</I>. The coil with the vacuum capacitor is shown on the cover of 
    the book.<BR><BR>73, Dick, PA0SE</B> </BLOCKQUOTE></BLOCKQUOTE></BODY></HTML>

Good afternoon all,

   after having received positive feedbacks on the latest mods done
to Argo relative to hangs on slow PCs, sometimes related also to the
use of Win XP or 2000, I have re-released build 130 as build 131.
Please download it from   http://www.weaksignals.com

As previously noted, one of the changes done has a side effect that the
format of the settings has changed, so you will have to resave all your
preferred settings under the same or a new name.

Another minor change is that now, when choosing CW (NDB) as mode,
the program will automatically switch the Visual Gain to Low, for best
viewing results, which can be further optimized by adjusting the
Sensitivity and the Contrast sliders.

Enjoy,

73  Alberto  I2PHD

<b>This subject has been discussed on the reflector several times
before.<br>
For coils to be used on the HF bands, for instance in the pi-network of a
valved power amplifier or an aerial matching unit, it is usual to short
circuit the unused part of the coil. If it is was left open the unused
part, together with its distributed capacitance, could be come
resonant&nbsp; on the working frequency and absorb a large part of the
power. <br>
The short circuited part is only loosely coupled to the used part so
there is only a small current flowing in it and this results in
negligible power to be lost in the resistance of the short circuited
turns.<br><br>
That the coupling is loose can be easily shown on paper.<br>
Using one of the formulas for the inductance of a single layer coil
calculate:<br><br>
a. Inductance L1 of the total coil<br>
b. Inductance L2 of the used part of the coil<br>
c. Inductance L3 of the part to be short circuited.<br><br>
Now L1 = L2 + L3 + 2k * square
root</font><font size=3 color="#FF0000">(L2 * L3).<br>
</font><font size=3>k is the coupling factor; k is between 0 and 1. 
<br>
You will find that k &lt;&lt; 1.&nbsp; <br><br>
It is a different story for coils wound on a toroidal core of ferrite or
powdered iron. k can then be almost one and the unused turns should NOT
be short circuited, though this is often seen in designs for aerial
tuners.<br><br>
For a loading/matching coil for the 136kHz band the chance of
self-resonance in the unused part is remote.<br>
But when the unused turns are left open the voltage at the top end of the
coil is higher that when they are short circuited.<br>
That is why I short circuit them.<br>
I found the aerial current being the same with the unused part open or
short circuited. So the loss is negligible.<br><br>

Hi Ian. I got about a 20 minute clear slot this morning. I recognised a
signal at very close to your declared frequency at about 0910z which had
definitely ceased at 0915z. It was only a "T" rating. Unfortunately I was
wiped out at 0919 by a TV set FMing its PSU right across the band. I suspect
this is why I only heard Laurie yesterday. My aerial is still not completely
resonant at 71 kHz so there is some more to be gained.

There is no sign of a signal from Peter yet at 0930z.

Cheers de Alan G3NYK   JO02PB  Sunny (??) Suffolk

  capacitor shown started to arc over at 60W of power. It was replaced by a 
  vacuum capacitor rated at 5000V maximum.&nbsp; When transmitter power was 
  increased&nbsp; from 120W to 320W I connected the capacitor over half the coil 
  in order not to exceed&nbsp; the maximum voltage.<BR><BR>The transmitter is 
  connected to one of the turns at the bottom end. I don't worry about SWR and 
  simply select the tap giving maximum aerial current (3A in dry 
  weather).<BR><BR>A better picture of the coil above can be found on page 62 of 
  G3LDO's <I>The low frequency experimenter's handbook</I>. The coil with the 
  vacuum capacitor is shown on the cover of the book.<BR><BR>73, Dick, PA0SE</B>

Jose,

Thank you - the Temex note explains all! Obviously ICOM tried a DTCXO in 
the 706 Mk II, found it unsatisfactory, and reverted to a straight TCXO in 
the IIG.

Alan,

Try http://www.npl.co.uk/npl/ctm
Lots more time stuff there.
Incidentally, Alberto is right, the H2 masers with stability only 10E13 
must be 30 years old!
NPL are playing with caesium fountain technology which promises 10E16

Walter G3JKV.

Hi Alan and all,

Thanks for the link.

Another fascinating read, with some awesome charts, is David Allan's
"The Science of Timekeeping", which can be downloaded (PDF, 1.13 MB) at
http://www.allanstime.com/Publications/DWA/Science_Timekeeping/

73,

Stewart KK7KA
