Title: Late report: W2DTC on 3885 khz Post by: pe1mph on May 12, 2013, 03:49:24 PM Hello AM Lovers,
Sorry I am a little late to put this report on the Forum. I couldn't put it earlier, we were a few days on the camping. Last Wednesdaymorning I heard Ken (W2DTC) on 3885 khz. Time around 06.20 hour by me and he has a good signal! Evenso he talks very long... hi, hi... Two recordings I made from him, but the are very long... hi, hi. I can sent it by 'We Transfer' when you sent me your emailadress. Here one of the recordings, but I hear 2 stations! :D ?? and then Ken.

I hear this happen a lot ! Ken says "see ya," at the end, and someone says "see ya," in response. I think that might have been Jeff W2NBC.

I couldn't hear, from the station before Ken, his call. :( But I did hear maybe Jeff W2NBC? Perhaps he recognize his own voice on my recording... ;D Greetings, Henk, pe1mph Title: Re: Late report: W2DTC on 3885 khz Post by: KB2WIG on May 13, 2013, 04:09:15 PM And you can hear the "Boston Buzzie" towards the end at 1.53??

I take just a look in his 'logbook' by qrz.com. But by 'latest contacts' I see not the call: W2DTC. Maybe he has forget to note this.... hi, hi... The distance beween him and me: 5904.9 km! In his shack I see a BC 610H, during many years I had such transmitter. I sold it and now my old BC is standing in an 'Army musea': http://www.bevrijdingsmuseum.nl/ Greetings, Henk, pe1mph Title: Re: Late report: W2DTC on 3885 khz Post by: PA4WM on May 14, 2013, 11:30:22 AM Nice recording Henk! Clear frequency without any QRM.
What kind of antenna were you using? (Dutch ;) ) : Hallo Henk, Ben benieuwd naar de gebruikte antenne op 80m. Mooie opname!

Martin Thanks Martin! When I made the recording I used an 'end-feeded' longwire. I guess about 45 meters long and hanging from the roof to trees. Between receiver & antenna an antennatuner (home-made). Often (early mornings) I hear AM from the USA between 3870 - 3885 khz. :) Greetings, Henk, pe1mh |
