Re: LF: Who / where is OR2ELN ??

[Andy Talbot <andy.g4jnt@googlemail.com>]

To get a false decode just once is down to the laws of probability.

 

To get the same call twice means the <signal received> is genuine. 

Who it is, is a completely different matter. Someone just hasn't done their setup properly.  

Isn't JJ at zero latitude, zero longitude ?

Hi Rik, Graham,

I also got false decode last night that looked genuine but searches revealed nothing.

091114 1958   5 -28  0.5   0.503998  WE6HMU JJ11 20          0   560  -32

091114 1958   8 -22 -1.1   0.503999  WE6HMU JJ11 20          0   560    0

JJ11 also in the water but off the west coast of Africa, perhaps the pirate has a fast boat :-))

Cheers,

Graham,

the call OR2ELN does not exist
if it is a pirate he is floating in the Indian Ocean somewhe half way between Madagascar and Heard Island.
