Again congrats to your new longest message over that path!
On a quiet night (or maybe two) it should be possible to transfer 1
character from Joe to me i think. Joe, do we want to try that? I would
not transmit during that night then.
Paul, did you copy my message from last night and the night before? I am
getting no decode at RC4HAA, even when stacking both nights.

Decoded 'EINSTEIN' from the overnight 8th/9th transmission.
Eb/N0 = -0.5 dB, constant reference phase, BER 41.1 %
Symbol error map http://abelian.org/vlf/tmp/171109a.gif
Night Eb/N0 Phase S/N
6/7th -20.0 dB < -48 dB in 1Hz
7/8th -3.7 dB 97.6 -31.79 dB in 1Hz (E+H)
8/9th -0.5 dB 128.8 -28.63 dB in 1Hz (E+H)
8/9th -3.2 dB 131.1 H-field only
8/9th -2.3 dB 126.7 E-field only
Nothing at all from the 1st night and clearly something
broke during the 2nd night.
After a full phase search I got a slight improvement to -0.4 dB
with phase pattern -150,-150,180,180, which means the signal
phase is lagging a little (on average) after about 02:00.
This decode is about at the limit for the transmitter power and
message duration. Looking at the error map, we might be able to
use a longer message but will probably only manage 9 chars max.
