Hi Uwe, It does look like the station your declared...BUT just get a ruler
out, or a pair of dividers, and you will find the spacing is very odd and
the element lengths are not constant. I wonder whether this is in fact a
"beat note" between two of the other stations ?? dot, dash and space lengths
are often selected to suit the user and 3:1 is not always chosen, but once
the keying starts the dots and dashes and spaces should come out at the same
length. For instance compare the two dots in your "I" with two of the dots
in the "6" and there is a big difference. Fading can affect this a little
but the signal seems steady over the call-sign period. One the other hand
one mans 60 sec dot may be anothers 50 sec. dot. Brian should be near
perfect as his elements start on the GPS "ticks", and his sending is near
"coherent"
Just a possibility ??
Cheers de Alan G3NYK
