I also have a Sunny Boy inverter, two in fact, and they produce almost
no RF noise. It's a different story with the LED lights; noise right
across the RF spectrum. I have the same problem with the solar regulator
and LED lights in my motorhome.

Hi Jim,
Yes, WPM is the standard, but WPM alone doesn't tell you exactly
how long the dits, dahs and delays are (see, for example, Farnsworth).
What I am trying to do is determine if a given recording has any CW
telemetry in it and at what frequency, not just to get the telemetry but
also to perform Doppler measurements. For example, HO-68 sends the
CW telemetry and it always starts with "BJ1SA XW XW" and always
ends with "XW XW". These are always sent at the same speed with
the same spacing. The telemetry values in between change, obviously,
but you can calculate a minimum and maximum amount of time for the
telemetry to be sent so you can place some limits on how long after
"BJ1SA XW XW" you should find the trailing "XW XW". If you see both
of these, then you know that you have found CW telemetry from HO-68.
Even if the signal is too weak to get all of the telemetry, you could still
use the frequency that you found "BJ1SA XW XW" for Doppler
measurements.
But in order to get a computer/DSP algorithm to look for "BJ1SA
XW XW" you need to specify exactly how long each dit, dah and delay
lasts so that the computer knows what to look for. The more accurate the
measurements of dits, dahs, and delays, and the longer the CW sequence
that you know for sure, the further into the noise you should be able to
detect the CW signal. Now for HO-68, it looks like a dit is 80
milliseconds,
dah is 240, and the delays are 80, 400 and 720 milliseconds. I found these
timing values and I was hopeful that someone had compiled a list of CW
timings for other satellites that send CW telemetry. I hope this explains
my request.

Mike,
Heard many stations in QSO today really strong (loud and clear), seems that
the bird will be very popular in these low solar times. Also it seems that
strong signal with 5-10 watts in 70 cm dish for uplink is confirmed from
many, therefore the forecast in terms of power budget seems confirmed so far.
Myself refraining to Tx per AMSAT-DL recommendation (just a question of
discipline) but will surely do so by Friday.

That is correct, make a new/different location base on where you operated
from. You then use that location when you sign & upload the log to LoTW.

Hi Joe,
Just go to the https://eshail.batc.org.uk/ website which includes a
websdr so you can hear all the signals in the nb transponder and see the
spectrum of the wb one!
I have just had my first QSO via QO-100 - with Paul M0EYT? the
transponder is very sensitive...my uplink patch (an old G3RUH one from
AO40 days) is held in place with gaffer tape.
As you say "Enjoy!"

Andrew,
Thanks to have shared, was not aware of that communication. And to all who
may have been somehow been embarrassed by my comments about the HAM
discipline etc. Please accept my apologies for same.
This side no luck, my setup was ready over a year ago and tested many times,
today trying to Tx (after your mail) I have a high SWR and cannot access the
bird, will have to wait Saturday to figure it out and hopefully make my 1st
QSO through the bird.
