SAQ - CW on 17.2kHz
About twice a year this heritage VLF transmitter puts out CW test transmissions. Usually the will QSL via the amateur QSL bureaus too. This is a video clip of the transmitter and antennas. The TX is a 1920s alternator TX, one of the last, if not THE last, in the world. Antennas are huge. SAQ is usually decent copy in Europe and it is often copied in the USA and Canada. Some copy it on just a software RX and a small wire in the mic socket of a PC. Next tests are on Alexanderson Day (Sunday June 29th) and near Christmas.
