Hi Andy,

thanks for mentioning this, but the signal around 136321 certainly is not mine. Brian CT1DRP is located favourably on the Portugese 
Atlantic coast, and his signal has made it across the pond to the U.S. and Canada regularly. I am sure he will be interested if you 
could post one of your captures. On the other hand, I have not been able to transmit this weekend. Also, I'm well inland, and I'd 
expect that transatlantic copy of my low ERP signal is only possible on rare occasions.

Copying DFCW is not any more difficult than QRSS. All you need to do is select a reasonable FFT bin bandwidth (e.g. 84 mHz for 10 
second, or 10 mHz for 60 second symbol duration) and scroll speed, and look out for Morse dashes / dots on the higher / lower RF 
frequency.

Good luck
Markus, DF6NM
