Default LDE Long deleayed echoe ???

Quick question here...

I've read about LDE a number of times and have even heard Art Bell talk
about it on Coast To Coast.

I've been thinking that it might be a product of the electronic equipment
itself, rather then any kind of outlandish atmospheric/propagation
condition.

My question... Has LDE ever been noticed or logged prior to the days of
solid state and computer chip rigs ??? I'd love to know the first known
observations of this phenomenon.

Any help on this question would be enormously appreciated.

I can remember operating CW in 1970 or 1971 in the 40 meter band and being able
to un-key and hear my own signal, or part of it.

No kiddin' ??? What the heck could it be, atmospherically speaking ???
Really... That is some screwy stuff... Nothing adds up.

There are a couple of guys on 3840 kHz that experience LDE often.

I, myself, was experiencing a mild echo where I'd catch the last
second or so of my last transmission on one night on 75m. Other
signals on the band were frequented with echoes too. It was pretty
bizarre.

It adds up very well. Simply conditions that would allow the signal to propagate
all the way around the earth.

It's been reported and noted in the past.

Not so. The Ace thinks 'CW' means 'non compos mentis'. Some things he
did in the seventies STILL reverberate in his brain. A lot of the
phenomena are auditory hallucinations. The use of mercury in cartridge
primers was quite common in the stone age and NOW we have to deal with
these unfortunate victims of heavy metal poisoning.

A long-time member of the West Allis RAC told me - in the late 1970s -
of a LDE he'd heard some 20 years earlier.

Yes LDE's were previously called the "Luxembourg effect" and were first
noted in the 1930s!!!

The 'Luxembourg effect' has nothing whatsoever to do with LDE's.
