Hi Terry,
excellent!
Your SpecLab screenshot caused
some head scratching... Stefans transmission from 15 to 15:30 was decoded and is
visible in the WSPR waterfall. But then, this same one is also visible
within the blue noise band in SpecLab, but only for half a minute ??
Finally the penny dropped: That
must have been the 14:00-14:09 transmission which got trapped by the watchdog,
and SpecLab timestamps are an hour off. Actually I had that same problem a while
ago, with a newer version of SpecLab that
automatically asks Windows for UTC, and I still had the local timezone
offset engaged.
Unfortunately I didn't manage to
decode Stefan in -32 here yet. Might have had a problem with my
own transmission overloading WSPR outside the receive
band.

grab showing decodes of FC and NM in WSPR32. I have now the correct “Dial”
offset to report the correct QRG. But spots not showing on WSPRNet which is
running again. Is there a “filter” in WSPR2.11 which reads the dial QRG and, if
not in an amateur band, does not upload?

Markus, i would agree to move to WSPR-32 now. Same QRG.
Will be interesting to see the new spectrograms and the possible distances!

Assume that you and Markus will be
operational in WSPR-32 during the overnight as well? If you can, please TX
running until shortly after your sunrise.

CFM, i will run the TX until 6 UTC in WSPR-32 mode on
136.164 kHz. My part is the first 30 minutes of each hour. This can be
nicely seen on the grabbers, http://www.iup.uni-heidelberg.de/schaefer_vlf/DK7FC_LF_DX_Grabber.html
;arkus starts to transmit right after i have finished my last
transmission.
An hour ago there was a very exciting funny race for me. I
had to modify the watchdog circuit to allow a longer transmit time. This had to
be finished before the next full hour starts. I took a micro-switch on the board
and increased the R likewise from 560 k to 560+1500k Ohm. Soldering, drilling
holes, connect 7 RG174 signal cables and the power supply, setting up the PC to
generate the signal, giving power to the PA, all in 15 minutes ;-) I won the
race but there was a bug anyway, somehow. Thus the time constant still was at 9
minutes and so my first attempt was negative. But the seconds was a nice
success, as reported by Terry.
