decoded the 20171205 transmissions on 17470.1Hz, but without the noiseblanker. the decoded messages were already published, so i'm including them here too.

i will try it with additional notching and a noiseblanker and it that makes a big difference i will add it to my 17470.1Hz grabber on the klubnl.pl page as well

Hi VLF,

Tomorrow i'm going to gtry to pass a first EbNaut message over to EA5DOM. Here 
are the details:

f = 17470.1000 Hz
Start time: 05.Dec.2017  07:00:00 UTC
Symbol period: 120 s
Characters: 1
CRC bits: 6
Coding 8K19A
Duration: 08:00 [hh:mm]
Antenna current: 1 A

73, Stefan

      Hi VLF
Congratulations Stefan and thank you all for the good information exchanges in 
the reflector

It is all the effort at your side Stefan. I still didn't do the homework to 
decrease the local QRM, which is
quite high as you can see in the 25KHz spectrogram. There is a very nasty noise 
which appeared just
this last couple of days and affects exactly 17470Hz. It is random and runs for 
a couple hours. Can be seen
as vertical noise lines in the lower spectrograms and is very noticeable in the 
47uH spectrogram

It is my first detection of Ham activity under LF so far. And there is a lot to 
improve to get same results
at 8270Hz. A new Rx setup in a different (hopefully cleaner) QTH is in the "To 
Do" list ;-)

      Hello VLF friends,

      This morning i looked on the EA5DOM VLF grabber and saw much better 
traces of the carrier on
      17.4701 kHz.
      https://ea5dom.ure.es/grabber/index.html

      I find this is a valid one-way contact or carrier detection and i think 
it is the first time
      that this was done by amateurs between DL and EA.
      A distance of 1393 km, http://k7fry.com/grid/?qth=IM98XN&from=jn49ik00wd

      It looks like there is some QSB on that path, higher than observed a 
similar distance at 8270
      Hz.
      We can now think about improvements and about a first message attempt...

      73, Stefan
