Helt ok, så får du svar på samme sprog.

Don't know where in the world you're located, but you're certainly not in Danish timezone ;o)

Hint: adjust date/clock.

Best regards Ebbe

My name is Michael. I'm educated as electronic mechanic. I started a project with the goal to receive and decode the VMS signals from Inmarsat. VMS system is manly used on fishing vessels. On the ship there is a box with a gps and satellite transceiver. The position information is send each hour, to a land earth station, were it is distributed to the different authorities. I hope that many of you will help and contribute to get this working, because I don't have all the skills my self.

First I started to ask people in different news group about the subject. But I now realized that it will be a bigger task. So I have made a Yahoo group to get this thing going. I have in this group posted the information I have gathered until now. If you think you maybe can contribute to the project then, or is interested in this as well, then please join at

Cheers Michael
