Straight up....
I will now go back to ham radio for a while. We will experiment with PSKmail and NVIS. As you have noticed from earlier posts here I have problems to reach the server from the vehicles with distances between 30 km and 500 km. That means inventing an 160m/80m/40m NVIS antenna for the camper and the boat before the winter season starts (although I don't expect problems from EA7....). At least I am now sure the software works as I want it to. And I have seen enough to be sure that if there is a path, there is email :) One of the services I am implementing is a daily foF2 bulletin (for every hour of the day, the straight up stuff). I have read most of the information on the internet. That says, I just have to 'erect' a dipole of 2x20 meters 12 meters high.
These people have never been on a boat 9 meters long, or for that matter, a camper with a roof of 6 x 2.5 meters.
Back to the old drawing board....
