Only 30.5% symbol errors were counted, which is where the Eb/N0 = +5.1 comes from. But the carrier level: 11.2 dB in 24.0 uHz corresponds to Eb/N0 = -1.1 dB. The laws of physics have changed? Or I have a software bug or made some mistake? Or something strange about the signal? Symbol error map: http://abelian.org/vlf/tmp/160512a.gif The night was low noise and daytime signal appears good too. It looks like a really good signal, except that the overall average calculates to only 11.2 dB in 1/41600 seconds. Will investigate after I have finished work. Interesting to see what today's signal does - last night was low noise too. -- Paul Nicholson --
