[Lowfer] 29.499 tonight OP2H starts 2330...

Tue Mar 11 15:32:37 EDT 2014

good day all,

I have been looking these signals but so far no luck. They haven't been 
showing up on my simple vlf grabber using a USB sound card and Spectrum Lab

<https://www.dropbox.com/sh/ahvgr4sekcgg99s/zZCqDbxJ02> updates every 5 
minutes.

I have to play around with opera software but haven't quite got it 
sorted out to get it interfaced with spectrum lab. I have noticed that 
OPERA does seem require more CPU power and the computer on which I am 
running my other grabbers while suitable for what it is currently be 
asked to do, may not be up the task of also running OPERA.

I will continue to follow the discussion and tweak my setup.

cheers, Graham ve3gtc 45N 75W
