I was getting 579 from BOSTON/USA from NC1K on 137 khz over the years on CW
which I thought was good using simple equipment like a manual morse key,
home built mosfet class D TX/PA and an inv L antenna, also regular QSO'S
with Russian stations. I am able to do the same on 500 KCS. I am surprised
you have difficulty with my signal, I expect the problem is your end.
NC1K was a professional CW operator (Radio Officer) unfortunately now silent
key.

Roger I am stating the facts, someone else mentioned seeing the signals
on the waterfall but they were not decoding. I could easlily have made a
qso on cw given the strength of signals whereas WSPR was not decoding, so
the exercise is pointless.
That was me. I wasn't decoding because I don't yet have a decoder. Had I
had one, and given the snr I observed, I would have expected 100% copy. On
the few occasions I have heard Mal, his snr has not been anything like as
good as WSPR.
