Most things are out of the shack room for the refurbishment; so almost no activity.
WSPR
31 December 2009: WSPR is operational on most days. After my shack is almost empty for the refurbishment, I have it running receive-only with the new purchased SDR-IQ. This little box does a fine job. I find it as sensitive as my TT RX320D receiver and a lot better than my Softrock. But I will switch off WSPR soon, do the refurbishment and set up the whole station again. See you then.
3 December 2009: WSPR (now version 2.0) still running most nights on 40m

This is it ... I purchased a direct sampling receiver from RFSpace (U.S.). You could have seen me playing with this receiver throughout the past days. I still did not find out all things I can do with it. So there is XMAS time now and some days off work. Good time for experimenting.

After almost 13 years time has come to make some renewal in my shack room. This means removing everything, new paint, a new carpet, some new furniture and installing all stuff again. During that time I will have a FM 439 MHz rig running put into a bag keeping dust away. The shack is small measuring only about 7 squaremeters but I already filled 8 big boxes and you do not see a big progress ... So I hope to have everything running again in January '10.
