With this transmission, the optimum decoder list length will
be about 40 for a full phase search, or about 120 if you
decide the phase is constant enough to restrict the search
to uniform phases.

Hahaa you changed the calculator website now! ;-) I just wanted to reproduce the settings, http://abelian.org/ebnaut/calc.php?sndb=16&snbws=0.000031&snmps=&code=16K21&sp=60&crc=6&nc=5&submit=Calculate
and now i saw other values and two lines describing the optimum list length more detailed. That is helpful.
In my EbNaut decode attempts i used a larger list length than recommended in the past but Markus alsways seems to use 20000 which will lead to many false decodes if the optimum length would be 9 actually. This can be problematic when using 2...3 characters.

All right now.

Two days stacked, 20th+21st 07:00 to 19:00.

12.5 dB in 23.1 uHz, a little over 4 sigma.

Wow, that peak is so nice and sharp that i decided to run the carrier for another day so you can stack 3 days. The EbNaut message will then start tomorrow 04:00:00.3 UTC.
