Another belated report: Three decodes in Nürnberg in the morning of Sep 16:

start  EbN0  rank
  UT     dB
03:00   1.0   89
03:30   0.7   17
04:00   3.9   0

At DL0AO in Amberg, we picked up pieces of carrier before and after the 4:00 transmission, indicating favourable SNR. But for some yet unidentified reason we didn't manage to achieve a decode.

Domenico and EbNaut:

Thanks to all for the comments and decode info from 16 September EbNaut Beacon Transmissions

I will run the EbNaut Beacon again this evening from 2300 UTC 16 September to 1100 UTC 17 September.  I am using EbNaut Sender V0.8 for generating the code and employ GPS-based time and frequency references for all station equipment and computers.

EbNaut Transmission Details:
Freq:  137470 Hz
Coding:  8K19A
CRC 16
Symbol Period:  3 sec
Message length:  5 characters
Number of Signal Bits:  512
Duration:  00:25:36.00
Message repeated 2x per hour at minutes 00 and 30
1 Watt EIRP

Hello Rob and EbNauters,

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

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

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.

Markus and EbNaut,

I will activate my 2200m EbNaut Beacon from 2300 UTC - 1100 UTC for the next two days, weather permitting (2300 UTC 15 Sep - 1100 UTC 16 Sep and 2300 UTC 16 Sep - 1100 UTC 17 Sep).

Tnx to all for reports and comments!

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,
