<p><br>Hello Jim.,
<p>Thanks for the reception report. You are the first person from the Cleveland
area reporting having received our transmissions.
<br>The WA2XTF/12 beacon is located in Front Royal Virginia. We run
175 watts into a 1200 ft long wire, about 20ft off the ground. (more
details of that particular set-up, as well as other LF experiments we are
conducting, can be found at <a href="http://www.amrad.org/projects/lf">http://www.amrad.org/projects/lf</a>
<p>Should you be interested in things LF, you can also join our LF reflector,
by logging on to

<p>Incidentally were you using a DSP program displaying our messages on
a computer screen., or were you actually listening to the morse transmissions
(at a 4-seconds dot length ?)
<p>Should you want a QSL card, please let me have your mailing address.
<br>Regards and thanks again
