It looks like ZEVS (aka KPTF) is currently undergoing a period of increased activity. SNR at DL0AO is no significantly better than it used to be, so I suspect that transmit power might have been increased. In addition, we have now enabled a 20 Hz filter and a noiseblanker, which effectively suppresses local QRM bursts. We find that in addition to the traditional three-digit repeated telegrams based on 4-minute dashes, there is also a much faster FSK mode with short dashes (about 10 or 12 seconds). These high-datarate sequences are always initiated by a long dash on the highest frequency, 83.2 Hz.

Okt 2017 0:44 Betreff: Re: ELF: ZEVS reception from a small loop Those ZEVS messages seem to consist of simple three-digit numbers. With 0.2 Hz spacing, the frequency ranges 81 to 81.8 and 82.2 to 83 Hz provide ten possible MFSK symbols. Each message is sent twice, separated by a single 80.8 Hz dash. Consecutive messages are always separated by the 82 Hz idle tone.
Assuming that symbol frequencies are counted upwards from 0 to 4 and 5 to 9, Stefan's screenshot would translate to ..7 486 128 731 941 473 018 73, Markus ... |
