PS: The RX at RC4HAA is a 100m long wire with a passive RC filter and an isolation transformer, i.e. no preamp is used. So it is a pure E field RX hanging in the middle of a city with a population of > 1 million people.

Hello VLF group and RC4HAA team,

I am glad to report about the successful decode of my 1 character EbNaut message on the VLF RX site at RC4HAA.

This is a land path distance of 2877 km, http://k7fry.com/grid/?qth=JN49IK00&from=LO53CF34

So far the best DX between Germany and Russia below 9 kHz.

It is my new personal ODX on VLF (the old ODX was just 4 km shorter).

A screenshot of the decoder result as well as the log file is attached. The unexpected good SNR suggests that even longer messages are possible within a single night. Also we need to consider that it was a very noisy night again, with thunderstorms in Spain and Italy.

A new message announcement will follow soon, next time i'm trying 2 characters.

73, Stefan
