Good morning!
I completed the phase 5 of my G3020 kit. Hopefully I find so much time to build the next days as I did last week to get on the air with the G3020 soon. I would be interested to get some information fromt he ones of you that use G3020 og G40 which soundcard you use and which SDR software you prefer.
Thanks for your comments.

Finding this new (to me) part of the hobby VERY interesting.. Amazing who and what time of the day you can be heard around the globe!!

I think that this will really help ( or inspire) me to understand propogation more.

Hi. Just finished phase 2 sucessfully. All 4 oscillators are working. Now I will have a cup of coffee and then continue with phase 3, the switch board.
Have a nice day all, I am on air at 30m.

Hi all. My G3020 kit arrived today at JO61ei. Parts inventory is completed and also Phase one. The power supply is running and I got a green LED lighening at the end. So thats almost a good end of the day. Tomorrow I will have a day off so the solder iron will smoke all over the day.
Have a nice evening all.
Cheers, Gregor DM1RG

Thanks to Giorgio, IK1UWL, an Italian translation of the WSPR 2.0 User's Guide is now available. A link has been placed on the WSJT/WSPR web site:

After successfully deploying my first system as V53ARC in October, I will have my second beacon system running in two weeks from now.
Jack, 5X7JD, agreed to host a WSPR beacon system at his location on Masaka, Uganda.
Equipment was shipped today and is expected to arrive on March 5th.

As V53ARC, the 5X system will TX with 1W and cover the bands from 80m to 10m, so the TX interval will be 16min or 12,5%

I will post updates here, once we get the beacon up and running.

I was amused by the snapshot http://www.g3zod.btinternet.co.uk/wspr/pairs.jpg

It seems WSPR transmissions like to travel in pairs!

I've been consistently noticing that the number of stations who are hearing me at any given moment is usually a few stations more that the number I’m hearing, (i.e. my "voice" generally outperforms my "ears"). The ratio fluctuates but usually rests at about 4:3 (heard by/hearing). I suppose the solution is to use separate antennae for TX and RX, (i.e. a better RX antenna). Any ideas?

Help

I'm new to WSPR.

I have downloaded it and the main screen is being displayed.
I have it running through a Signalink USB interface but with no internet connection so I monitor it thought wish website.

Firstly are the frequency's USB dial (MHz): 0.5024, 1.8366, 3.5926, 5.2872, 7.0386, 10.1387, 14.0956, 18.1046, 21.0946, 24.9246, 28.1246, 50.293, 144.488
are the ones that I put into my transciever when I want to transmit or are these the listening frequencies?

On the program itself in the Frequencies (Mhz) box it displays 2 Dial and Tx.

Also as I am only transmitting and down want to overload my transciever (running 5watts) what is the best setting for TX fraction?

I am new to this program and any more useful info would be gratefully recieved.

Thank you
