Title: Long dasher 8039.82 KHz
Post by: DYGradio on October 27, 2023, 2209 UTC
I have a long some what chirpy dasher that fades up strong. Not seeing a reference for this one but may well be missing it so if this is previously reported let me know thanks! Airspy HF+ Discovery 60 ft SE/NW longwire 8039.82 KHz 27OCT23 22:00z.

Long dasher back in there today, same characteristics but now at 8039.81 KHz. Fair signal with some fading. Airspy HF+ Discovery 60ft NE/SW longwire. 28OCT23 21:43z

Long dasher was very chirpy, about three seconds from key down to landing on a solid frequency with dashes running longer than normal, all total about five seconds per key up. Within a few minutes it got much stronger and much more stable with minimal chrip and about a three second solid dash and three seconds between dashes. Maybe the sun came out from behind the clouds and kicked up solar panel output, that's purely a SWAG on my part. 8039.87 KHz 06NOV23 20:07z Airspy HF+ Discovery 60ft SE/NW longwire

NO JOY here in Colorado I have listened day time and night time never heard it at all.

Monitored this long dasher for several hours today while doing other things, from around 19:00z it came up solid and strong, by 22:00z it began to deteriorate as if it's power supply voltage was decreasing. Dashes became more chirpy and more delayed as time went by. By 22:41z it was down to just a chirp every seven or so seconds. 8039.80 KHz 08NOV23 22:41z

Long dasher fairly strong this morning with moderate fading. 8039.8 KHz 18NOV23 16:55z Airspy HF+ Discovery 60ft SE/NW longwire.

It was suggested this might be a second harmonic of 4019.9, in monitoring both simultaneously I have not seen that so far. Thanks to DSL (all we have in rural Pinal County AZ) I have a higher noise floor from roughly 3815 to 5100 KHz which does not help with weak signals in the 4 MHz range.
