Hi Stefan,

no decodes from yesterday Aug, 24, likely due to the much increased QRN already in the afternoon. I also tried to combine 23rd and 24th and still found the correct decode in the list, but with deteriorated SNR.

Thanks for starting the slow 28 uHz window in Heidelberg! If you like, you could perhaps shift or split the display range to show a slot around 4469.988333 Hz, i.e. the gap 16.667 mHz below your EbNaut center frequency. However I won't transmit today, due to high QRN background and predicted thunderstorms tonight.

Best 73,
Markus

Hello Markus, VLF,

Now there is a 28 uHz Spectrogram on my grabber, http://www.iup.uni-heidelberg.de/schaefer_vlf/DK7FC_VLF_Grabber2.html
Scroll rate is 2 hours per pixel.
You can see my own carrier on 4470.005 Hz which is running between the EbNaut messages.
Currently the EbNaut message is running for the 3rd time.
Yesterday it was quite noisy again. I'm curious to see if Paul can decode the message with 3 stacked days.
I find that most fascinating! Stacking daily transmissions is only possible on VLF (or ULF/ELF probably?). So everyone could try to transmit there, even with an 'average' LF transmit antenna. The coil and the stable frequency generation seems to be the problem however. Actually we need some more public relations, more spread information and motivation for potential VLF newcomers. As soon as a critical number of TX and RX stations has been overcome, it can be a self-running movement. The RX capabilities of DL0AO are certainly a new valuable contribution to the RX sites.

As soon as the message is decoded on Pauls side, i want to rise the antenna current to 170 mA (~ + 1 dB) and try a longer message, maybe 20 characters or so. There is enough time to run the experiment now...

73, Stefan

Thanks Stefan! Distance between DF6NM and DL0AO is 48 km.

Yes a slow window from your tree might possibly receive my signal on 4470, albeit marginally, with perhaps 10 to 12 dB in 31 uHz. Unfortunately I won't be able to do long daytime transmissions before the next weekend.

Best 73,
Markus
