Hello Domenico,
many thanks for your effort to build this wizard to put through the single conversion & decoding steps.
All worked fine on my Thinkpad running Windows 10 (64bit).

Betreff: Re: LF: EbLaunch - an easy application for managing Window's EbNaut-rx
Hello Paul, all
thanks to everybody for testing this little program !

The file 04020316.txt included is a raw FFT coming from my receiver audio and  Spectrum Lab session programmed according Markus's OPDS32 settings. The only difference respect to the OPDS is that we need to keep the .txt files: opds program wants to delete them. So do not run opds for the moment or remove the two instructions row in the file clean.bat.
 
My Spectrum lab  FFT settings are : Fc=1500 Hz (central audio frequency),  samplerate  48000 samples/s (thanks to the re-sample), decimation is 216 and lenght is 524288. Receiver is setted to dial 136.000 kHz USB.
 
This file contains at 03:00:00 UTC two EbNaut  transmissions  (DF6NM on 137.520 kHz and IW4DXW on 137.522,000313 kHz)
 
So, after converting txt file to 04020316.wav, you can try to decode using one of these sets of parameters:
Parameters for DF6NM: 5 characters, 3 seconds, CRC16, 8K19A
Parameters for IW4DXW: 6 characters, 3 seconds, CRC20, 8K19A
There are also some LORAN lines that is possible to trace with the EbNaut decoder having ***** as results.
 
GL and 73, Domenico IZ7SLZ

OK, thanks Rik and Roger.

I tried again following Rik's instructions and it installed without
problems. I need to brush up on my Italian. :-)

So far I cannot get EbNaut-rx to decode anything but I am probably
doing something wrong.

I'm a bit confused about what I should enter for frequency, since
one screen shot shows 137.520, the other 137.522.

I am getting a start offset number in the negative thousands of
seconds, not the 160.95 shown in the screen shot.

73,
Paul N1BUG
