Hi Alan=2C

Ye= s=2C the path seems to improve.
I just got a hint that JA7NI reported t= o have seen my signal again:
DK= 7FC  =3B 136.1  =3B 04 Jan 22:41  =3B JA= 7NI  =3B "M&=3Bquot=3Bat my grabber
...= taken from the DX cluster
Unfortunately i missed to watch his grabber to= the stated time. Maybe he will send me a capture...
