Hi Scott, Lowfers,

Here's a description of my LF / MF receiving station in its current configuration:

Antennas  - VE7SL style 10 ft. loop for 137 & a 333 ft. perimeter delta for 500.
Preamps   - Homebrew based on circuits from Peter Dodd's LF Handbook.
Receiver   - TS-440SAT modified by VE3OT to remove BCB attenuator.
Filtering    -  Timewave DSP-59+
Computer - Pentium II with Win98.
Software   - Argo, MultiPSK, Spectran, Spectrum Lab, WOLF, & WSPR.

I had tweaked the 137 loop last week in preparation for the coming season
and it appears to have been successful.   By the way, I'm one of those odd
folk who go by their second name, in my case it's Bruce or just J.B. 

73, J.B., VE3EAR
