The first report was from Vic G3GKI in the morning on 26-Aug-04. He reported strong signals but the frequency was lower than expected, at 10,139,942. He didn't have time to get any screenshots. | First screenshot was received from Steinar LA5VNA in JO59JQ, 27-AUG-04 09:39 UT. It shows "G0U" in the Hell section, but the picture is upside down due to some slightly incorrect receiver settings. When I saw it I almost had a heart attack, thinking my hours of manual programming were wasted. | | A little later, this arrived from Steinar LA5VNA showing my "crown" trademark (also upside down). | | 28-AUG-04 19:45 UT: Uli DF5SF in JN48ON reports strong signals, and sends this image at 20:05. | | First screenshot from Peter PA1SDB in QTH JO33KH Appingedam, 29-AUG-04 06:54 UT. Shows the end of the "crown" trademark. | | First screenshot from Wolf DL2WRJ on 29-AUG-04 09:00 UT, showing again the "crown" trademark. | | Nice detailed info from Peter PA1SDB showing the crown and interesting frequency measurements. The end of the Hell section can also be seen on the left of the screen, but the time axis is too fast to be able to see the letters. | | More from Peter PA1SDB, from Sunday night (29-AUG-04 - 30-AUG-04). Peter was using a 45cm diameter magnetic loop antenna. | | Another from Peter PA1SDB: the "crown" again | | Also from Peter PA1SDB, showing the beginning of the QRSS10 section | | 28-AUG-04 19:46 from Uli DF5SF. A nice image of the QRSS10. Some upwards drift is visible, and also a little chirp. | | 29-AUG-04 18:03 from Uli DF5SF. I pasted this together from 2 separate consecutive screenshots, to show the whole Hell message "73 DE G0UPL". Uli has more screenshots on his website. | | Pierre ON5SL in JO10TT provides the first report from ON on 31-AUG-04 12:28! This image shows the latter part of my "crown" trademark. | | 31-Aug-04, very weak copy from Peter PA1SDB. With a little detective work, it is possible to determine that this signal is the "UP" of my Hell "G0UPL". | | Same image, but with added blue circles to show received pixels, green circles show missing pixels (text: "UP" of my callsign "G0UPL")
| | Nice clear image from Christian DL6JAN in Chemnitz, E. Germany, JO60KU, 31-AUG-04. Christian uses a 20m dipole 2x5m, 5m above ground. Note: I pasted this image together parts of three contiguous screenshots received on 03-SEP-04. |
