Re: Fwd: Re: LF: EbNaut on LF

Well done Stefan and Domenico.  That put a smile on my face - Thank-you!
The message was decoded as sent except for an exclaimation mark and
some apostrophies which evidently didn't survive the transatlantic voyage.

Prof. Gill taught the course I did at Memorial University last semester.

EbNaut again tonight:  2300 utc and every 15 mins.  150 watts 2 amps
137.477 kHz 54 characters 1432 0.2 s symbols, 4K19A.

73 to all
