Quietly, in the hope of eventually turning this into something more useful, I've been recording DBF39's strength using DL4YHF's excellent Spectrum Lab software. Below is the take encompassing last night's success. The most useful data column is the first, being the peak detected signal. Following that are an on-frequency average (within 1Hz bandwidth) and that of an adjacent 1Hz slice. It is relative only, uncalibrated in absolute signal level as yet. Empirically, anything bigger than about -26dB is ear'ole copy. Of note is that a few hours later than John's reception, between 0400 and 0600, DBF reached a few dB louder. Indeed as big as I have on record so far. Again, well done!
