6970 PSK UTE 1850 UTC 13 Jul 2018
« on: July 13, 2018, 1859 UTC »
First, I confess to not being up to date on the names/specs of the various UTE modes.  But I noticed this UTE on 6970 (which I believe I have seen on the waterfall many times before), so I decided it would be a good DF exercise.

For reference, KD2OM is located in Rochester, NY:

FYI - Rochester, New York is the location of Harris RF Communications, where a lot of HF military equipment is made.

On a different topic, I have found it better when trying to do TDoA to not employ an RX that is very close to the TX being sought. As much as it would seem desirable, it sometimes appears to skew the result a little, as far as I can tell.
