But can't get a signal out of the mud. Maybe it will work in some
hours...

odo, Berlin/Germany


3500 to 3800 isn't 40 meters, it is 75 meters.


Sorry, my fault but you are wrong too. :-9
It is the 80 mtr ham band not 40...

Here, the phone portion of the band (3.75 to 4.0 mhz) is commonly
referred to 75 meters, the cw portion (3.5 to 3.75) is referred to as 80
meters.

In Europe 3900-4000khz is named 75mtr band, designated to radio
broadcast. No different names for the ham band of 80mtrs 3500-to (only)
3800khz.
