[Lowfer] Miscellaneous

[Garry]

Hi All,

The terse antenna description for N6GN is "Remote, Hybrid Active Dipole 
& Loop_over_Ground". I assume the loop must favor E-W paths to copy SIW 
and WM and that would explain why WH2XXP is relatively weak.

I copy EAR at 188830.5 Hz using the N8GA kiwisdr locked to GPS. That's 
also where I used to receive it with my GPS-referenced home eprobe 
setup. The frequency wobbles a very small amount in time as the dots and 
dashes are sent. Hardly even noticeable with ARGO at QRSS30. John, your 
best capture shows an "EAR" followed by "EA" the next transmission so 
its definitely EAR just before local sunrise fade out. Impressive given 
the 693 mi path. Thanks for running your grabber with captures archived.

Gedas, I'm confident you're seeing lowfer KE weakly in your first 
capture. The frequency is close to where I see it with the N8GA kiwisdr 
(181819.5 Hz) and where Dex reported it some time ago. Also the 
frequency drift over time for the "K" transmission is evident. I looked 
a bit too early this morning but didn't save any captures. They were 
quite marginal so seeing what you saw is encouraging.
