Hello Paul, This is my overnight plot around 137.455 kHz. Best regards, Roelof == From: Roelof Bakker, PAoRDT Location: Middelburg, Zealand SW Netherlands, 51 30 02 N, 03 36 02 E Locator: JO11tm Rece
Thanks all very much indeed for the reports and decodes. I've downloaded Domenico's wav files for a closer look. It was a good result for EbNaut. The best decode by Domenico corresponds to about -46d
Hi Paul, No problem now, see attachments. 73, Stefan Am 13.03.2016 23:04, schrieb Paul Nicholson: Carrier on from 21:58, EbNaut from 22:00 Frequency: 137465.00000 Hz Coding: 8K19A Chars: 12 Symbols:
Hello Paul and all, sorry Paul but no decodes in JN80 this time. Maybe also due to high QRN from nearby thurnderstorms. I have added two audio files in the usual dropbox folder. ...but please do not

Hi Paul & All, Paul wrote :- I was about to fire up the tx but it looks like somebody is on or near 137.465 already. That was probably Mike G3XDV running Opera "Op32" mode (32 minutes Tx). See :- htt
No it was some CW, here's the tail end of it 10 mins or so before I started transmitting at 21:58 http://abelian.org/tmp/137700Hz_160313_2201.jpg I couldn't make any sense from the Morse. -- Paul Nic
Oh, I just looked at your screenshot Gary. So that's what Opera looks like. I thought it was Morse code, no wonder I couldn't read it! It doesn't take up much bandwidth does it? How many Hz away do I
Stefan and Markus, thanks very much for the reports! A nice result from Heidelberg and you did a full phase search in 15 degree steps! I think I've reached all the stations equiped for coherent recep
Paul, Yes, that is an Opera signal. Opera uses on/off keying rather like QRS. The characters are quite different to normal morse code. The decoder does the hard work, it decodes & displays. You don't

I tried the long wire at ELF - it was useless. No Schumann and it can't see transients from TLEs. In fact it was pretty poor at VLF which probably shows how well it couples to the trees. So, not a ve

Or to be more accurate , You don't need a NoV for ground transmission .. that's not quite the same as attempting to generate EM field from a large loop :) I've a vague recollection that someone on th
