Thank-you Paul, It seems the uno shut down after 0130. I was wondering why until realising it was only doing what it was told. It is now starting the 2nd sequence and should run all night. A RasPi is
Impressive. That's within a decibel of the limit. The TX power is 30 watts. Less than 10 should give valid decodes. First three decodes tonight: 2015 Nov 27/28 start Eb/N0 time offset
Hi Paul, Telegram for you, sir. Sorry for the late notice. start time 2000 8 characters. Hope you get it. sudo echo ' ** ** ' | sudo ebnaut -et -N8 -p8K19A | sudo ebkey -S2.0 -m rp,gpio=27 -T 2015112
That's correct Andy assuming I've got things under control. Joe Would I be right in thinking 137777Hz, 30 minute repeat, 2s symbols is running again? Inow appear to have an operational "Record Every
Unfortunately, a 'connection abort timeout' has affected the 2100 transmission. Will try again 2130. That's correct Andy assuming I've got things under control. Joe Would I be right in thinking 13777
Hi Paul, gcc -Wall -o ebkey ebkey.c -lcurses ebkey.c:45:21: fatal error: ncurses.h: No such file or directory compilation terminated. Glad you got one frame! Trying to get away from gates&windoze at
Hi Andy, Paul, Group, You'rs truly was at fault for last few failures -- a carrier is helpful from time to time! My regrets. I went back to v0.1 after. Hopefully all will be well for the rest of the
Let's see if I can remember to key the TX tonight. Intend to start near dusk 2000ut. Last night the TX was the old class E with 26V on the drain instead of the usual 40. The output was 20 watts -- th
Hi Paul That would work too, but a simple stand-alone would be more adaptable for someone with very modest programming skill (me) to time VLF transmissions to UTC for example! EbNaut again tonight, 5
Hi Paul, That's a relief! The phase was merrily bouncing back and forth and I was wondering what happened. All going smoothly with the clicks from the TX, the changing numbers from ebkey and CHU tone
Thankyou again Markus, Paul and Andy, TX on in 5 mins. Wonder if there is a chance of a VK7 reception if QRO and longer symbols. Will try shorter symbols & QRO soon. Joe VO1NA Hi Joe, moderate dur
Good morning Paul and Group, Conditions were more variable yesterday with some strong peaks. Let's leave it on and see if there are any daytime decodes. Thanks Joe VO1NA VO1NA 2015-11-30/12-01 8K19A
Hi Markus, Paul and Stefan, The encouragement is muchly appreciated. The TX will stay on for tonight. Tomorrow I'd like to try QRO for VK before the WX takes down the RL aerial. We have a storm loomi
Hi Edgar, Perhaps I need more frequency stability or perhaps propagation stability is the limiting factor. Would your winter have lower local QRN? I'm looking at rubidium and GPSD oscillators at the
Thanks Markus, It is already dark and the TX is not on! Let's try a longer message, shorter symbols and more power. Will advise when QRV. 73 Joe Fewer and weaker decodes than the night before: VO1
Hi Paul, That's very helpful. The oscillator needs some work to improve our chances. 73 Joe Given a 3 hour VO/VK window, http://abelian.org/ebnaut/calc.php?sndb=15&snbws=92e-6&code=16K21&sp=10&L=1&nc
I was going to do it every hour, but didn't want to keep anyone waiting. Good luck Andy Joe Every half hour ??? Andy On 2 December 2015 at 21:00, <[email protected]> wrote: Hi Paul, That's very helpful.
Delighted that the message found its way to Italy and to at least one member of the Poldhu club! The discussion on Rb vs GPSDO is helpful, but I'm still undecided. It's rumoured that Rb has phase noi
Interestingly, the correct decode of the 07:00 transmission was preceded by a (partially) false "MARCONI 114>H0L2,Z=-AM@RY" at -0.4 dB. Now recording again to look for tonight's message. Joe
Hi Markus and Paul, Group, Thank-you for the reports. I'll try 0.2 s symbols, 131 characters tonight starting 2000. I's better get out and deal with the snow in the drive before it gets too dark. 73
