Hi Roger

Yes we won't do the subject to death yet again but there is up to 18dB spare on some WSPR reports.

I think there is also a human 'can't be doing with it' factor involved when a signal is broken and hidden in the noise.

Thanks Eddie.

I think WSPR2 is roughly equivalent to QRSS10, so some 5dB(?) better than QRSS3. It is 
possible that people did not detect the QRSS3 signal because of this, but more probable 
that the "manual" decode required did not happen.

There is NO doubt in my mind that WSPR in all its flavours is an excellent 
research tool because of the Internet feedback.

(137kHz WSPR2 still running overnight)

Hi Roger

I did take a look for you last night but QRM levels here, interference like 
heavy theater curtains, means 136KHz is a no go area for me unless whoever it 
is stops doing what ever it is.

I am also doing it the difficult way still, running my 200uW TX on WSPR and 
QRSS on 475KHz producing regular spots from the UK, DL, PA and F. However 
confirming my previous tests the QRSS3 may as well not be there. Not one report 
received even from a UK station.
This is with the QRSS between WSPR transmissions in the WSPR window. If the 
mode was the slightest bit comparable then surely it would produce a comment 
even if those seeing the signal cannot resolve a call sign or the unique 
identification Morse symbol.

I will now duck whilst it is mathematically proven that all who are decoding 
the WSPR are copying the QRSS3 just fine.:-)

My LF WSPR2 tests using the earth-electrode antenna and 30uW ERP max continue 
this evening.   With 2 unique reports yesterday (G8HUH 250km and M0GXM 18km, 
both multiple times), I'm hopeful that others will copy me this evening.

Please take a look for me if you get a chance. All spots really appreciated.
