Great results from Stefan, Paul, Jacek, Renato and Wolf; especially interesting 
because in general groundwave/skywave interference phase noise should be 
comparatively high at 5170 Hz / 303.8 km, and decreasing with distance through 
919.3 km, while (independent of phase interference) signal strength also 
decreases. Models are not accurate enough to show which of the two effects 
dominates at this frequency and range span, so these simultaneous measurements 
of overnight Eb/N0 and phase at 303.8 km, 504.6 km, 881.2 km and 919.3 km, on 
four successive nights, are quite interesting.

Now with the 4th night.  Good phase and amplitude repeatability, except at 
Todmorden. The repeats should stack very well.

Todmorden (881.2 km)
--------------------

  23/24 Eb/N0 +10.6 dB phase 43.4, *Decoded*
  24/25 Eb/N0 +11.8 dB phase 45.7, *Decoded*
  25/26 Eb/N0  +3.4 dB phase 32.8, *Decoded*
  26/27 Eb/N0  +3.6 dB phase 54.4, *Decoded*

Bielefeld (303.8 km DL4YHF)
---------------------------

  23/24 Eb/N0 +16.1 dB phase -51.2, *Decoded*
  24/25 Eb/N0 +15.7 dB phase -50.2, *Decoded*
  25/26 Eb/N0 +15.0 dB phase -50.8, *Decoded*
  26/27 Eb/N0 +14.6 dB phase -45.0, *Decoded*

Warsaw (919.3 km SQ5BPF)
------------------------

  23/24 Eb/N0 -4.3 dB phase -37.4;
  24/25 Eb/N0 +2.2 dB phase -13.5, *Decoded*
  25/26 Eb/N0 -3.1 dB phase  -2.5;
  26/27 Eb/N0 -0.2 dB phase -17.4, *Decoded*

Cumiana (504.6 km IK1QFK)
-------------------------

  23/24 Eb/N0 +5.0 dB phase -173.0, *Decoded*
  24/25 Eb/N0 +4.2 dB phase -176.9, *Decoded*
  25/26 Eb/N0 +2.4 dB phase +165.2, *Decoded*
  26/27 Eb/N0 +2.3 dB phase -175.3, *Decoded*

As you can see, the problem with H S/N at this frequency is still there.  I can 
say with confidence it is not the rx and probably not the antenna.
