Low Frequency Radio Transmission

AncientMariner
The annual Christmas Eve message will be transmitted in Morse code on December 24th at 08:00 utc (UK Time) on 17.2 kHz. Tuning up commences at about 07:30 utc.

If interested and you do not have a suitable receiver in the conventional sense, you can use the sound card in your pc and this software https://sites.google.com/site/sm6lkm/saqrx/ together with a decent length of wire.

The transmission will be screened live at  YouTube Channel.

    I stand corrected on the details of the frequencies. I do know there have been attempts to raise funding for a re-start of a modern LORAN like system (circa 100KHz ), as a back up for critical navigation at sea, as GPS has proved to be rather too vulnerable to  jamming for comfort. For that matter there are plenty of land based systems that rely on GPS for both positioning and timing, that some might consider to be quite critical. So far however nothing significant has been built.
