I've heard a number of beacons on 600m. YWA, in Petawawa Ontario is usually pretty strong here, 500 miles away. Plus lots of NAVTEX stations on 518 KHz-- typically clean copy of New Orleans, 1200 miles away.
I'm using my main transmit antenna, a 100 ft wire. The ATU is in LCSet mode, the elements tuned to CA=0.0 (min), L=17.35 (max). 73, Drew AF2Z On Fri, 18 Dec 2009 10:56:22 +0000, Dave wrote: >Dave > >I am currently using my k3 succesfully on 500khz.
