Hello LF,

thanks very much for the nice comments - you can guess I feel a little exhilarated now.

But (like with all weak signals) it's the receiver who has to do most of the work. So many thanks again to Laurence, who managed to 
pull all our tiny little signals out of the Chinese noise background. Just like he did in Alaska, back in January 2004.

I guess, for me it was also a matter of lucky circumstances. I had a few days off work, and the weather had been dry and cold, so I 
could leave my fragile antenna in place. The partial discharge problems still present in the afternoon miraculously went away for 
the evening. With 220 W of RF, tonight's ERP was almost 0.8 W, which I had hardly reached before. The opening from here to BY lasted 
for about 1.5 hours, with the best half hour around 21:00 just barely sufficient to get a few consecutive dashes across.

Tomorrow at work I'll be in for some funny looks: Hey, and what did you do since christmas? Well I spent a few nights to send four 
bits to China...

Kind regards,
Markus, DF6NM
