Bob,

I'm still not decoding a call sign. Perhaps what you've entered doesn't 
make the code happy. Also, if Jay or anyone else has decoded a call sign 
and reported it I don't know how to probe for "other" decodes - don't 
see that as a band choice at either the new or old spot locations 
(http://www.wsprnet.org/drupal/wsprnet/spots and 
http://www.wsprnet.org/olddb?mode=html&band=all&limit=200&findcall=&findreporter=&sort=date). 


Finally, although your signal has been fine I failed to get decodes at 
0045 and 0115. I recall there was a bug in the code that prevented 
continuous decodes and thought it was fixed. Guess not. I just saw the 
decode for 0200 failed too. I seem to remember that to clear such 
problems I had to kill the program and start it anew (and remember it 
takes a cycle to go active, which may be as long as 15 minutes, then 
another 15 minutes to get a decode).

Here's what I have via a 10' loop:

0030  -23   0.1    0.074610    0   <...>         FN12LQ   40
0100  -24   0.1    0.074610    0   <...>         FN12LQ   40
0130  -27  -0.2    0.074610    0   <...>         FN12LQ   40

I'm also monitoring with an e-probe and it's decoded too with SNRs down 
a couple dB.
