500 kHz Experimental Licence WF2XXQ

The FCC has issued Experimental License Grant WF2XXQ to operate on 130kHz and 500 KHz to Juan A. Granados K4LCD until October 1, 2016.

As part of our VLF - Very Low Frequency amateur radio experiment, on September 6, 2011 we submitted an application for an Experimental License to operate within certain parameters in the 130KHz and 500KHz bands.

We have been listening successfully to experimental transmissions of some of the 45 licensed amateurs participating in the experiments conducted under an Experimental License granted to the ARRL in the 500KHz band.

Receiving with a Kenwood TS-2000, NE and NW loops of the 4 x elevated EWEs designed by Floyd Koontz WA2WVL.

With the help of Floyd Koontz WA2WVL, we are involved in designing complements to our existing 160M transmit antenna so that it will transmit at 500KHz. We now have a preliminary design.

Floyd Koontz WA2WVL is very advanced in the development of a transmitter down converter and solid state RF amplifier to provide us with approximately 300 watts output to operate at 500KHz.

At the same time we are looking towards HPSDR as an efficient solution to these challenges, and specifically to the work being done by Simon Brown HB9HRV in his SDR-Console; Phil Covington N8VD, Phil Harman VK6APH, RFSpace and it's SDR-IQ receiver, JUMA and others.

I am specially greatful for their support to Tim O'Rourke W4YN, my long time friend Ken Hopper N9VV whose resourse of knowledge is invaluable and my neighbor and lifetime friend David Ternent KP4EOR.
