Hi Markus Rob and group,

The old class E tx is still feeding 50 watts to the aerial and
the raspi 3 running Paul Nicholson's ebkey piping ebnaut will
continue for 2 days.

It is interesting to see on Markus OPDS spectrograms that signals
are arriving during the daytime at levels that might be sufficient for
a decode.

Thanks for the reports, Markus and the company on LF Rob.
