no Markus, only 4 transmissions have been carried out by Tony yesterdy afternoon.

Seems that Riccardo (QRB 266 km) was the only one getting it (see his screenshot).

Tony suggested this one. He said that delivery time is 20 days.

An active patch antenna should work. In fact it is better to have an external antenna and build a good screening case at Neo GPS.  

Tony is on air again today with 3 CH. 2s  8k19A every hour,  on hour. QRG 137493 Hz

Also from my side there there will be some EbNaut transmissions:

20 CH code 8k19A period:1s every hour at XX.30 until tomorrow morning. QRG 137495 Hz

...same here. I tried the 11:30 transmission, without success. 2 or 3 second symbols would help indeed.

Tried the first four transmissions (11:30, 12:00, 12:30, 13:00), but no plausible decode appeared, and no hint on the phase graphs either. Looks llke we simnply need more SNR... During the day, phase stability would surely support much longer transmissions, e.g. 3 s symbols. Or we can try again after darkness, hoping for moderate lightning activity.

Best 73,

Hello LF,

Yes, IK1HGI is ready for EbNaut transmission this afternoon starting from 11:30 UT every 30 minutes.

QRG = 137493 Hz, char = 6, code 8K19A,  period = 1 second. Duration 9' 20''

Good luck.

73, Domenico.
