The path from VO1NA to Burlington CT is only
589 kM ... and it's mostly over water.
Have been attempting to decode VO1NA for a
couple weeks now (both 2100 and 0900 transmissions) and only have that
one success. If I didn't have such an easy time with W4DEX's transmission
I'd think there was something wrong with the receiving setup! (Suppose
that's still possible). There has been no shortage of very convincing
false decodes. Think Stefan is right ... a higher CRC is
needed.
Any chance the lack of VO1NA decodes on this
side of the pond is due to the terminator affecting both the 2100 and 0900
transmissions?
