Thank you Joe for the QSO. I wasn't sure if my QRSS-3 signal was visible 
all the time. But it seems so.
It was a procedure as in a real QSO, thanks for that.
A short report:
First you called me and i didn't see you. Just on the VE2IQ grabber i 
saw what's going on. I called CQ in QRSS-3 to that time.
But later your "...NA K" became well visible here, O copy. So i stopped 
watching other grabbers and mails to start a valid QSO. I asked "?" You 
were calling me again then in QRSS-10. I saw the complete call with QSB, 
see http://dl.dropbox.com/u/19882028/LF/QRSS10_NA1.jpg. The "V" of your 
call was lost in QSB but i saw your complete call some months ago. So i 
could have known or assume who was calling (always playing the game as 
if there is no internet existing and as if LF is the only band 
available). Then i asked "VO1NA ?..." and gave you a T report. Later you 
transmitted QRSS-30 (or 20?) and became O copy again! You confirmed with 
"R" See another capture at 
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/19882028/LF/QRSS10_NA5.jpg (report OO and K). 
The end of the QSO can be seen here: 
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/19882028/LF/QRSS10_NA7.jpg The end would have 
been fine in QRSS-10 as well.

Do you also have some screenshots Joe?

Thanks for that and i hope we can repeat that in DFCW-10 or so, if my 
grabber RX is finally a bit more optimised or uses a remote linkand 
antenna in the forest. A loop, nulling out DCF39 would have resulted in 
more than 3 dB S/N i am sure.

73, Stefan/DK7FC
