It would appear that the USA/VE group look between 135.920 and 
135.923, although the picture sent to me by Jon covered  .919 to .925 
on the 30s dot setting.
My transmission on Friday/Sat was on .919.7. Last night I moved up to 
.920.7. because I understood I would be outside the search window.
On the 4th of Feb  Markus listed the stations transmitting as follows:
924.15 ZP(V)?
923.4  G3XDV
923.0  M0MBU (very good frequency marker)
922.5 G3XTZ
922.3 G3YXM
921.7/.8 G3AQC (DFCW)
921.4/.6  G4JNT  (DFCW)
As I said I will be on 
920.7 G3LDO 

>From Markus's picture QRSS stations .2HZ apart (DFCW needs a little 
more room) are quite readable so you can slot yourself in.  Like 
Brian I only have 1Hz setting resolution and I don't have the 
confidence to do that  so I will stay where I am on the edge!. 
According to Jon's picture there is space below 920.7. to 919.0, 
where there is a  Loran line. This Loran line also shows up on VE2ZJ's picture 
These pictures from Dave's web site are a great help to us over here. 
The only improvement I can suggest is to align the receiver and Argo 
frequency settings so that they are direct reading.

I am not sure of tonights transmission times but I will be on in the 
morning from around 0400UTC 

BTW. My ukonline site seems to have trouble receiving attached files. 
This one seems OK though.
