Hello Rik,
Your signal is fine visible on my waterfall, but with deep QSB-Phases.

Faint traces of my signal are showing up on the G4WGT grabber.
I will transmit every 10 minutes starting 20:40 UTC until 21:30 UTC
and listen inbetween.

BPF
>> 6. In the tab "Demodulator" change "Tap" from 72 to 256
>> 7. In the tab "Demodulator" click on "OK"
>> 8. In the tab "Decode" change "BaudRate" from 45 tot 22 and click "OK"
