Hello Rob and EbNauters,

With pleasure, i  got one T/A decode at 04:00 UTC of today  :

2018-09-16_04:00:00 137470.000Hz N=5 T=3s 8K19A CRC=16 list=5000 sym=512 Duration=1536s
found rank 650 ber 3.5742e-01 Eb/N0 0.8 M -8.017886162e+00 ph 0 0,0,0,0 [K3RWR]
found rank 245 ber 3.4375e-01 Eb/N0 1.6 M -8.088760853e+00 ph 16 0,0,-30,-30 [K3RWR]
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Strange thing is that the decode comes only using nominal offsets (time and frequency).

Thank you very much Robert for the signal and for the activity. Hope to have a 2-way contact soon !

I'm out of home for some days; When returned, i will try to deep search  your signal in other timeslots using the recordered audio of the LF op32  band.

The receiver will continue to record the band for this week.

I have programmed my auto-decode utility with the transmit parameters of Luis EA5DOM . Unfortunatly i have discovered a bug so decoding work of last 3 days is invalid. 

Same for you, Luis, i will try a deep search your recent transmissions at next week-end.

But now bug in auto-decoder routine  is fixed so, you can try further transmission anytime. Thanks in advance for testing my grabber.

Sorry I missed the action last night, but will activate filesaves and try again tonight Sat/Sun. Best times to Europe have usually occured between 1 and 5 UT. Would it perhaps be possible to transmit a few hours longer?

Best 73,
