Thanks very much to Jay and Alex for those fine reports!=20


After I shut down I got excellent decodes from Riccardo at 5 and 6 UT, with=
 perfectly flat phase after sunrise. He is putting out a good signal so I'm=
 sure Jay will catch him sooner or later.


I did look for Rob on 137490 Hz during odd half hours but unfortunately got=
 only gibberish this time.=20


Unfortunately the wind picked up this morning and tore off two wires from m=
y topload, so I had to take down what is left of the transmit antenna. If i=
t calms down and I manage to repair it I may get on 137520 again later toni=
ght.=20


Jay you may need even more bins: DF2JP is currently working on taming his o=
scillator, if he succeeds he may finally fire up on 137524 Hz.=20


73 and Happy Easter to all,
Markus


PS: Alex, if you have access to those nasty energy saving lamps, there's a =
neat trick to push their chopper frequency a couple of kHz out of band: glu=
e on a small magnet near the electronics, so that it partly saturates the l=
ittle ferrite toroid in the oscillator. This is not an April joke, it worke=
d several times for me.

Hello LF, Markus, Ric


I downloaded opds *.txt file from my old automatic LF-grabber in KO85fn htt=
p://rn3aus.136.su/grabber.html=20
and then I have some decodes of ebnaut transmissions df6nm and iw4dxw last =
night.

Unfortunately noise level from energy-saving lamps around grabber is very h=
igh at night time. So only morning time give me decode...

73 de rn3aus/Alex

DF6NM Markus 2 decodes ... 0100 and 0300. IW4DXW Riccardo 0 decodes ;~( . F=
or 0100 and 0200 it was 'one or the other' (too few bins for both) ... look=
ed for DF6NM 0100 and IW4DXW 0200. For 0300 and 0400 there were sufficient =
bins to look for both. There likely would have been another DF6NM decode fr=

es shown below.
