Mark DL6YYM uses WSPR with 1 miiliwatt

I received a very interesting email from Mark DL6YYM about his WSPR adventures first with 20 milliwat and later with 1 milliwatt. Mark makes 1 milliwatt by using an attenuator of 13 dB behind the beacon of 20 milliwatt. Thank you for the very nice info, dear Mark.

Hi Dear Bert,

From time to time I visit your nice blog. Some weeks ago I read from QRPPP WSPR on your site. 

In the next step I found a very nice project from Alexander RA9YER 

http://ra9yer.blogspot.com/2016/05/arduino-si5351-beacon.html

It's based on ARDUINO and SI5351 

From the SI5351 come about 14-15 dBm output 8 Khz - 160 MHz.
I set the frequency in the script. The complete investment is about 25,00 €.

To the left - Powermeter and Attenuator In front - SI5351 and Arduino - DL6YYM 

Last week I make the first tests on different bands.
Yesterday afternoon I put my attenuator 10 + 3 dB (your idea 8-)) between the SI5351 and my antenne.
My output in the shack ==> 30m Aircell 7 ==> R8 vertical.

In the table below is the result on 40m :-D

It's a nice fun but CW is better ;-)
But I hope I can make a stand alone TX in the next time.
best wishes es

  1. Hallo Bert, het blijft fascinerend om met zo'n laag vermogen toch nog leuke afstanden te overbruggen. 73 Paul

    1. Hallo Paul, Mark begon met 20 milliwatt. Maar zoals dat meer voorkomt, is hij daarna naar 1 milliwatt gegaan. hi. 73, Bert
