Firstly, the frequency stability - presumably of my IC-706 Mk1 - was not good enough for the 30s dot setting. After a long warm-up period, it settled down to a ragged line that wandered all over the screen. My son opened a window in the next room to the shack and the Loran lines moved off the screen completely! Does anyone else have experience of this? I believe a high stability oscillator is available for the 706. Secondly, I used the screen capture facility for the first time and has several good images, then lots and lots of pictures of my screen saver! Ooops. It seems that a bit more work is needed before I am properly QRV. Mike, G3XDV (IO91VT) http://www.lf.thersgb.net
