Hi Dick
It is transmitting on 10235 at present (I can see it), but I know Bob was intending to take it down for some improvements in the next week or 2.

Re: Status of IOW Test Transmissions
Many thanks Dave.
Untried combination of horn, Bob Platts LNB and an old Amstrad SRX 200 meant that I had no success seeing it this afternoon. So now that I know, I will go along to the waterfront somewhere along the Solent during the week and try a bit harder!
Once I get the frequency calibrated and the bearing correct.........
Thanks

That's a shame. It's still on.
Where were you trying from?

Signal strength at Bournemouth sea front today was the best I have seen so far.
