New Mode for Trans-Atlantic LF Work
Following recent successes with transmitting extremely slow Morse 
across
the Atlantic on the 136kHz band, the feat has been repeated using a 
BPSK
data mode. The mode known as 'WOLF' - which stands for Weak-signal
Operation at Low Frequency - was created by Stewart Nelson, KK7KA, 
and it
claims to have the weak-signal performance of slow CW without the 
very long
transmission times needed for that mode.

On the 19th of March at 0145, the WOLF signals of M0BMU were 
successfully
decoded by W1TAG. This was only the first occasion that this mode 
had been
used in Europe, though low-frequency experimenters in the USA and 
Canada
had been reporting record-breaking results for some weeks.

It is likely that WOLF will lead to more LF trans-Atlantic crossings
because the reduced transmission times allow advantage to be taken 
of much
shorter propagation peaks than was previously possible.
