Re: Logging Question
kugellagers
I also use excel to log all my DX.
toggle quoted messageShow quoted text
Take a look at the link below to my logs in the WTFDA forum to get an idea of how mine are set up. http://www.wtfda.info/showthread.php?5078-Kugellager-s-Logs I also create a Google Earth kmz file for everything I log. If you go to the second page in the above link you can see my log from a recent trip to Michigan to get an idea of how it looks. i have my full logs from my home qth done the same way. You can compare the excel version of the Michigan log to its GE kmz. Cheers, John ];')

Sony SRF-T615 ($150) Meets the 7" FSL ($150)
Hello All,
With Canadian Customs (and eventually Rob Ross) about to receive the first of the new Gatling-gun-like Ferrite Sleeve Loop antennas, it was time to give Rob's new 7" FSL a final test before it heads north of the border. To honor (honour) Rob, I chose his favorite (favourite) Ultralight radio to run the inductive coupling demonstration-- the legendary Sony SRF-T615. The SRF-T615 is famous primarily because of its unique combination of very high AM sensitivity in an extremely compact cabinet, although it has earned additional fame because of its outstanding audio reproduction and nulling ability. Selectivity isn't exactly its strong point, but its enthusiastic owners tend to overlook this shortcoming. At a cost of $150 before shipping, this Japanese-market model also leads the Ultralight market in another dubious category-- purchasing price. The 7" FSL was designed to provide the performance of a full-sized 4' (air core) box loop in an extremely compact antenna that would easily fit on a small desk or table (with under 1 cubic foot of total volume), all at a price of under $150. Extensive testing and refinement of various FSL designs made this dream a reality this summer, although the increasing demand for FSL parts (especially the ferrite rods) may cause the construction cost to inch up in the future. A photo of Rob's new 7" FSL next to the Sony SRF-T615 (the team used for the following MP3's) is posted at http://www.mediafire.com/i/?kkyim1dyypt6qyg In the following inductive coupling demonstrations a barefoot Sony SRF-T615 is used to receive a fringe daytime DX station by itself for the first 15 seconds, then it receives an inductive coupling boost from the 7" FSL to receive the same fringe station for the next 20 seconds. The tests were conducted around local noon here in Puyallup, WA, about 35 miles south of Seattle. 610-KONA Pasco, WA (5 kw at 160 miles) http://www.mediafire.com/?7c78sybokl078yw 980-CKNW New Westminster, BC (50 kw at 170 miles) http://www.mediafire.com/?kdh4h211kg96kqs Note: The barefoot SRF-T615 could not receive this station at all, but only slop from 1000-KOMO. The FSL boosted CKNW's signal, without boosting the slop from KOMO (both stations directly to the north) 1070-CFAX Victoria, BC (10 kw at 90 miles) http://www.mediafire.com/?id6dyp3c89k82mn 1640-KDZR Lake Oswego, OR (10 kw at 140 miles) http://www.mediafire.com/?f2zm4ipqpriqb8f For those interested in the 7" FSL ("Affordable") model, I've uploaded the first part of an upcoming article, containing a parts list, a general overview of construction, and the steps necessary to build the antenna up through the ferrite sleeve. Because of other ongoing projects the article is still unfinished, but it should be sufficient for DXers to make a decision about whether to build the 7" FSL model, and get well into construction if they choose to begin ordering parts. The first part of the article is posted at http://www.mediafire.com/?23tu5st7hxncnwp 73 and Good DX, Gary DeBock (in Puyallup, WA, USA)

Re: Logging Question
Bob Coomler <w6rjc@...>
Tony, Over the years I've used a number of commercial logging programs (still do for hamming), but a basic Excel log works the best for me for listening applications. It can be set up how I want, the data is easily sorted and even for a card carrying Luddite like me, it is easily put together. For MW, I generally have columns for station, frequency, city, s/p, country, signal, date, time, power, distance and remarks. Other applications can include bearing, programming, equipment used, last heard, etc. Not an aesthetic wonder of the world, but Excel gets the job done.

Logging Question
n2_ss
Wondering what most are using for logging. A logging program? If so, which? A simple homemade spreadsheet? If so, what does your entries layout look like?
Thanks, Tony Anthony R Gargano n2ss@n2ss.com

unidentified Spanish on 1220 kHz
Carl DeWhitt
? 1220 0908-0911 EDT 9/29/2011
While listening to WCPH 1220 Etowah ,TN,I heard underneath them an unidentified Spanish language station.When the broadside of my new homebrew 4 foot loop was turned mostly east-west,I could null out WCPH to hear the Spanish station in the clear at fair level.I could not stay with it to i.d. time.Music and talk were heard.One possibility maybe WOTS Kisssimmee,FL a Spanish language station relaying WPRD Winter Park,FL.This is the only possibility I could find in a nearby state.

New XE Logged This Morning
Kirk
Hi everyone,
Yet again, tips from Richard Allen helped me bag one new XE station this morning. He's been hearing this one for a while now, but for some reason it's eluded me until now. This was the only freq I listened to after work this morning. Logged this on the Eton E-100 Slider w/ SAT. 920, XEHQ, Hermosillo, Sonora, 1134-1230 UTC, 9/29/11, playing many back to back vcl mx selections with no breaks in between. A wide variety of songs were hrd including pops, bandera, and musica romantica. Finally at 1227 a woman announcer was hrd w/ a clear "R. Capital" ID! A G sig from 1215-1230. During this time IDs were also noted from XEQD (Chihuahua) and XECQ (Sinaloa). Sta #810, LAm #172- At one point this morning I had at least 4 different XE stations audible on this channel. I hrd the Himno Nacional from a station at 1215 and from another one at 1213. 73 from Okieland. Kirk Allen Ponca City, OK

Re: WDHP heard this AM in CT
Kirk
Hi Paul,
Congratulations on hearing WDHP!! That's a great catch. I heard them once while I lived in the Houston area, but here in Okieland, they're one tough station to hear. I'd almost forgotten about the X band...been a long time since I even tuned that high on the band. Keep up the great DX! Kirk Allen Ponca City, OK

4 foot homebrew loop
Carl DeWhitt
While at the Ten-Tec Factory Hamfest in Sevierville,TN ,I purchased a homebrew loop from Chuck Roswell,K2MGL of Georgia for $20.The loop does not cover the entire band but does cover over 50%.He says it can be modified for the whole band.It consists of a wooden pole which fits into a wooden turntable type base.It has 8 wooden bars radiating out from the wooden square center piece.The receiving element consists of 4 loops of coaxial cable.There is a metal box at the base of the loop elements with a variable tuning capacitor inside the metal box and a small tuning knob on top of the box.The loop tunes 995-1760 kHz.Chuck,K2MGL made the loop himself.He told me he used to work for Trans World Radio from both Bonaire,Netherlands Antilles and from Monaco.While with the Bonaire station he says he helped maintain the 500kw mw transmitter there.
You can look him up on the qrz.com call sign search box to read his story.

Hi 1377.0 TWR Gavar, ARM, Farsi 1715 UT. Armenia is my 39th nation on the ultralight Tecsun PL-380. Tough to pull out underneath France Info Lille. Patrice Hi Patrice, Nice catch on Armenia for your 39th nation. I have a feeling we were hearing that one here as well a few weeks ago when solar conditions were better. Could hear something in Arabic or Farsi under France but couldn't catch an ID on it. Allen Willie Bristol's Hope, Newfoundland
