Interested to know if the changes have made much difference. Antenna current is higher so I hope it will radiate a some more. Reports and screenshots gratefully received. On RX, G7NKS is about the same S/N as this morning before the changes. Not quite sure what this is telling me. BTW, I know I drift upwards about 50Hz for about 20 mins as the transverter xtal oscillator settles. 73s Roger G3XBM ------------------------------------------------------------- http://g3xbm-qrp.blogspot.com/ http://www.g3xbm.co.uk G3XBM GQRP 1678 ISWL G11088 --0016e68e8718a24f0b0473b2fdde Content-Type: text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Good Folks,
