[600MRG] U3 experiment continues

[John Langridge]

Hi Ralph,

I will explain the experimental setup, including the antenna,  after this phase of the experiment is complete but I did make a specific change that resulted in the increase.  There are several individuals that know the specifics at this point but that's because I have a problem running my mouth HI!

My calculated ERP right now with my adjustment is very close to 5 mW.  I need to adjust the U3 to reflect that new value and will do so in a bit.

73,

John

*Thanks John ---

Looking at WSPR data, to what change do you attribute the sudden 
~10dBsnr improvement in your WSPR link to WG2XXM at 2014-01-16 15:36?

What is your calculated/estimated/SWAG Weirp?
