Betreff: LF: 137kHz Transatlantic QSO

I was very pleased this evening 06/March/19 to complete a JT9-1 QSO with Pa=
ul N1BUG on 137kHz.Paul and I have been trying almost nightly for the past =
3 weeks overcoming many problems along the way.Finally we succeeded, with r=
eports of -21 for me, while N1BUG was -27 in IO91FR (4842km)I should also l=
ike to say thanks to Rik ON7YD.=C2=A0 A few days ago I downloaded SlowJT9 v=
0.9.16.0.=C2=A0 I ran this, with "multiple decodes" switched on and had WSJ=
T-X running parallel.
During the 12 minute QSO, SlowJT9 decoded 5 sequences from Paul at -27 whil=
e WSJT-X missed 2 of the 5. Both programmes reported the same signal levels=
. Audio for transmit was taken from WSJT.
 - Rik. I have saved the decoded files as you requested. when I find out wh=
ere they are, I will forward them to you.
Since making a crossband TA QSO (137k to 14MHz) in Sept 2000, a 2-way QSO h=
as been a long term ambition. This is one ticked off the bucket list. Thank=
s Paul for the dedication and perseverance.
