What ever happened to WOLF mode ? In digitalradio@yahoogroups.com, "Andrew J. O'Brien" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
>From GB2RS News 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.
