Thanks for that summary Paul.
Especially the good SNR at IK1QFK is impressing! He will have no problem
to receive the following 12 character message i guess, when stacking 2
or 3 days.
So far i transmitted the message 4 times. That could be enough but Alex
told me he will visit the garden tomorrow or Friday, so i better run
some more transmissions so we get a very clear decode.
He already sent me 2 txt files and i could have a look into them. On the
23th, the message is a -5.0 dB, on the 24th it is at -8.0 dB. Combined
is at -3.6 dB. So this looks promising and as expected.
Since October it was my goal to send a 12 char message on 5170 Hz over
to Moscow before i QSY to 4470 Hz. This may take 2 weeks but i think i
will do it anyway. There will still be enough time to experiment on the
lower frequencies.
Maybe the periodic transmissions will be interrupted for some days on
970 Hz! I hope your H field RX was further improved now?
