The EbNaut message was decoded at the DL0AO club station near Amberg (JN59VK), where a group around DK1IS and DF9RB are currently in the process of setting up a remote VLF receive system.

Interestingly, the reception occured on a preliminary "antenna", consisting of the braid of a 300 m long CAT5 cable which will later be used to transport the signals from an active E-probe in the forest. This cable is part of a bundle of several other cables which are running along a metal fence and grounded at either one or both ends. Despite considerable local QRM and contaminated shack ground, they had also managed to pick up last week's two-character message from Stefan, as well as some 8270.0025 Hz carriers from here (48 km).

Best 73,
Markus
