Ok Bob

And there was I thinking wspr was making false decodes .. yes I have seen the <....> I thought that was part of the wspr qso mode ....I have decoded the full tx a few times .. so dose that mean I have captured -two- transmissions from you ?

I would think (based on past experience) that it would of been better to go the other way with a shorter tx pulse containing all the data as the 30 second in and 120 second out qsb times are not idea for wspr at the best of times ?

Interesting Ae .. that layout is similar to my set up, but my top wires are 60 feet shorter, but with a loading coil at the top of the vertical section >> http://uk500khz.googlegroups.com/web/Coke%20coil%20%3A-%29 <<

Q what is the  rx set up ?

Hello, Graham, Rik, and All,
      Joe K1JT was kind enough to modify the WSPR program to accommodate
our long calls with the /.  It takes two, 2 minute transmissions to send
the full call, grid, and power.  You may see decodes  that look like
<...> followed by the grid and/or power.  WSPR has not decoded the call
yet but only the second part of the complete message. With a marginal
signal and fades, this may be all you will get.  I don't know how long it
stores the second half (or the first half) of the message to splice it
together.  Joe also added the  CW ID feature to version 2.0 which is
required by our experimental license.  He has been very supportive of our
600 meter efforts.
    The set up here is 100 watts to a  wire, 35 ft inverted L with two
top loading wires each about 100 ft  long.  I am really surprised (and
pleased) to get across with this setup.  I am inland from the coast and
the path to Eu is over land till the path goes over salt water off the
coast of New Brunswick, Canada.  Want to raise the antenna a bit more and
increase the top loading but that may not happen till spring now.
    73 and Happy New Year.  Bob  WD2XSH/37  FN42fo

Graham, Rick, Bob,

I guess that when the CW id of a WSPR station is audible there
should
be solid copy in WSPR.
But, as mentioned by Bob, WSPR 2.0 was used to transmit the unusual

WD2XSH/37 callsign. I noticed that older version of WSPR do not copy

this properly, even when the signal is strong.
I have been running WSPR2 and WSPR1.1 simultaniously for some days

(the first spotting as ON7YD the other as OR7T) and noticed that
WD2XSH/37 produced all kinds of odd messages with WSPR1.1. WSPR2
decodes OK.

73, Rik  ON7YD - OR7T
