WSPR (Weak Signal Position Reporter)

Further to my recent report on the above I have started to transmit as well as monitor this mode. I carefully set it up to only work at 5 watts output and watched for any reports to come in. Most of them were about the same distance as for listening.

Today I checked on the Database/Reflector and found that I had been heard in Australia and New Zealand. How satisfying that is. To think that I cannot hear them at all but they are able to hear me. As I said before, there is no need for our radios to gather dust when they could be used for research purposes when we are not using them in the normal way.
