Wow, what a great article.  It covers everything in good detail.
There is such a lot to explain, no wonder it came in two parts.

I'm supposed to be learning Russian but my Russian is even worse
than my German!    With much help from my large dictionary I
am able to read some parts and it is very good indeed.  It has
everything you need to get started receiving VLF and EbNaut.

I realise now, I could not write such a good article.

We need an Alex in every country!

Yes I have a busy full time job, responsible for factory
production software to build smart gas meters.  346 factory
workstations on three sites in three countries, plus their
main servers and databases.  I also run a company which
maintains a historic reservoir (1836, 100k tons of water).
I used to do mountain rescue too but retired from call-outs
a few years ago.  I could not be searching the moors until
midnight, then be working on a system in Poland at 04:00.
Now I just help out with training and I'm out on the hills
three or four times per week with that.

Luckily, my VLF hobby is almost fully automated :), maybe I
get to spend an hour a day on it.  Just enough time to analyse
some signal and post results!  Like this morning during a
coffee break, just time to launch the scripts to analyse W4DEX,
DK7FC, VO1NA overnight signals at all the sites.  At weekends
I might get a little time to work on VLF software and very
occasionally make some hardware.   But then, I might have to
be at the reservoir organising maintenance.  How I wish each
day had a couple more hours, there is no time to sleep...
