and for the next step, maybe there is someone on the list who lives near
the magnetic conjugate point from you :) this would probably be
around africa

Subject: Re: VLF: New EbNaut announcement...
GM Eddie, Jacek,
Thanks for the decode, i confirm the message is correct ;-) With such long
messages, a false decode
that makes some sense becomes most unlikely. I would never send messages like
'h;?T 7!F' :-)
Jacek, the QRN looked quite low here last night. Anyway i would say there is a
clear SNR improvement
on your side. We could certainly manage longer messages but then we may exclude
some newcomers.
Actually i am now in the situation to run daily VLF transmissions, even during
rain. The antenna
current was almost stable at 700 mA during the whole transmission time.
I'm now waiting for a feedback from Alex/RN3AUS, and i am optimistic. You
already see, the messages
become longer and longer. The next attempt would be 10 characters which still
seems to be realistic
for a radius of 2000 km.
BTW EA5DOM is also within this radius! :-)
