Congratulations on all parties involved! The day when a complete QSO is succesful seems to be very close. I hope that the recent news also helped to speed up negotiations with the FCC on a US LF allocation! As soon as I have geared up my rig again I will try to participate (however, I am pretty old-fashioned ... I only have 1 Hz resolution with my current DDS ... however, there might be a solution, using my Hagenuk SSB Exciter, feeding it with an audio frequency generator capable of 1 mHz steps should work ... let us see ... any frequency slot in the TA window still unassigned? ...).
