Transmission sequence
-
-
:00 seconds - Transmit Enable keys up at the Tone 0 frequency,
-
then at :01 seconds the WSJT transmission starts.
-
At around :48 seconds the WSJT mode finishes and the Tx enable line is dropped.
-
-
at :00 seconds Tx enable is raised and the CW starts sending
-
-
followed by two digits corresponding to the minutes of the time and
-
three letters, consonant-vowel-consonant forming the timestamp hash.
-
The CW repeats, so the whole message is sent twice.
-
After the second CW transmission finishes, there is period of carrier for 5 seconds.
-
Tx Enable drops at approximately :30 seconds depending on the length of the hash code.
The sequence then repeats at the even minute :00 seconds

DLØSHF 10 GHz EME beacon
 |
DLØSHF antenna 7.2 mtr dish
J054CG |
 |
Specifications
Frequency: 10368.025 MHz; GPS stabilized
Output power : 50 Watt
 |
DLØSHF water cooled SSPA with 50
Watt output power |
|
|
Antenna: 7.2 mtr prime focus dish transmitting with vertical
polarisation
Location In North West Germany
QRV: always when moon is visible with more than 10 degrees
elevation at DL0SHF but only when moon declination is above 20 degrees North
Transmitting CW and JT messages
Very High Power is possible on request, mail to DK7LJ, about
750 Watt output
For RX digital mode you must use WSJT mode
Q65-60E
transmitting Q65-E on even periods and CW (FSK) on odd.
Dial frequency needed is 10368.024, which will bring the upper tone of the FSK and lower tone of the QRA at 1000Hz audio.
