Hi

 

More haste, less speed.  Edited repeat to amend whip to loop! Ooops!

 

SAQ well copied here in Hawarden, North Wales. 

RF Space SDR-IQ with SpectraVue connected to my pc's network using a Silex
SX-2000U2 USB to Ethernet convertor and PA0RDT Mini-Whip at about 22 feet.

 

The Mini-Whip is not optimum at 17.2kHz, especially as I have 132kV overhead
lines a couple of hundred yards away. Hope to try a loop later this year.

Hi All,

 

Received special SAQ transmission well here on Hilton Head Island,SC

this morning on 02/05/09.

The CW transmission ran from about 0950-1010 UTC. RST 329 using Icom R75

with 2x250Hz filters, AMRAD VLF converter clone 

and Ratzlaff active whip up 40ft. Conditions were fairly good on VLF

with reasonably low static levels.

 

Wonder if anyone else was listening for SAQ?
