Re: Topband: Power transmissioon --flood of frequencies -VDSL frequencies

Guys - there is already a system with a "flood of signals " authorized for ADSL and VDSL . They go thru 160 , 80 , 40 every 4 khz (specs say every 4.375 khz) but here in NE Phoenix they are precisely 4.000 khz spacing . I spent 75 days with Centurylink with carriers every 4 khz as loud as -75

Roger, I don't like this anymore than you do. *But Brian said he read it, *and I believe what he stated below. And others here have said similar things about this. Maybe we're occupying too much bandwidth here on the Topband reflector! ;-) 73, Mike www.w0btu.com On Feb 13, 2018 3:15 PM, "Brian

Re: Topband: FCC authorizes 1KW wireless power transmission

Isn't this a done deal? It's been authorized by the FCC! What can we do, except react to any QRM that might occur? 73, Mike www.w0btu.com _ Topband Reflector Archives - http://www.contesting.com/_topband

Topband: FCC authorizes 1KW wireless power transmission

Well they are actually licensed to transmit between 1710 and 1900 kHz . . . And what is worrying is the licence also states: "the occupied bandwidth of the emission shall not extend beyond the band limits set forth above" . . . which sounds like it could be a very wideband transmission indeed !

This was the culmination of Tree's subtle warning to all of us to 'stop it!'. But some curmudgeons and their ilk just ignored him and continued to post. (I was guilty of that myself not that long ago in the FT8 mess). Respectfully, Tree, maybe you should go into Bill Tippett mod mode. He wasn't

Re: Topband: FCC authorizes 1KW wireless power transmission

I thought they were limited to 1.8000 MHz on the 160m band. No? Whatever the case --after reading the related recent posts here-- all the fuss, fuming and fulminating over a *temporary* carrier --on whatever frequency they transmit-- seems to be much ado about nothing. 73, Mike www.w0btu.com

Kill switch will be good main tx out of our band will be good. I am all for experimental projects. That’s what we do too However on a non interference basis. Make this a great day Dale > On Feb 13, 2018, at 3:27 PM, Dale Putnam wrote: > > Without question it leaves

Re: Topband: FCC authorizes 1KW wireless power transmission

Without question it leaves the gate open for a flood of signals that will do away with ALL weak signal work on that band. Definition of weak signal in this case anything less than an effective ERP less than their tx power out plus antenna gain. And as long as we stay within our license limits

Re: Topband: FCC authorizes 1KW wireless power transmission

I read their experiment.  They will transmit only a CW (unmodulated) signal for the minimum time needed to complete a field strength reading.  The only frequency where they will run 1000W "radiated" is 1710kHz.  On other freqs they plan to run 100W "radiated" & try to avoid interfering with

Topband: FCC authorizes 1KW wireless power transmission

I don't care that this will never be a practical way of transferring power . . . But aren't any of you guys worried about the fact that their licence allows them to transmit ANWHERE within Top Band? This could be some horrible wideband signal that generates a lot of QRM ! Roger G3YRO

Re: Topband: 160m DX Activity Night

Top Band has been quite dismal on my sunrise lately (1950z) to the point of me wondering why I should even bother getting out of bed early. I have heard Z60A and the pileup, but there is no point in even trying to call them, as they are only working Europe. Our evenings have been mostly good
