Hi Markus,

Thanks for the decodes and information for the  Sat/Sun period= !  Another strong showing reflecting the robustness of your RX station.=

If I were to move to a different tx frequency with= in the 2200m band, are there better frequencies for you than my current 137.= 395 KHz?  The weather is much nicer now and I can retune the antenna tu= ning unit as needed.

Thanks again & 73,

Thanks Paul for pointing out my error regarding the w= av file center frequency. It didn't affect the decodes and has been fix= ed now.

Let's see how the longer message will fare tonight...

LF,

I am running trial LF EbNaut transmissions this weekend as fol= lows:

Start Time: Currently Running
Stop Time: 25 Mar 1300 UTCFreq: 137.395 KHz
Code Rate: 1/8K=3D19
CRC: 24
Symbol Period: 3= sec
Message Text: K3RWR
Characters: 5, Number of Signal Bits: 576Duration: 00:28:48:00
Transmissions Start on Hour & Half Hour
P= ower: 0.5W EIRP

The objectives are to test my station transmitting e= quipment on EbNaut and asses all signal reports and decode reports. Note: I= will be able to move to a lower frequency in the band once the weather impr= oves and I can implement changes to the antenna tuning unit.

Reports a= nd comments welcome!

Tnx & 73,
