LF: RE: 137.500 kHz ROS MF-1 beacon

HI Gary

 

I am delighted to report a very good copy of your ROS signal 18:58 UTC. I would have sent a copy if the program hadn’t have crashed just before the end with ‘subscript out of range‘, the first time I have had crashes with ROS soft.

 

The signal is undetectable at audio and invisible on Spectran yet would be 100% copy without the crash.  A very efficient use of 100Hz bandwidth, thanks to Jose.

 

Once again due to the local Panasonic Plasma TV I am having to use an un-tuned 40m Doublet as the antenna. This is the first time I have ever detected an Amateur signal on 136kHz.
