Mike thanks for the report and the snap..nice conditions over the Pacific 
tonite

Im using two sig gens to produce the high and low, and switched via relays 
driven from the serial port - the low is GPS referenced (HP3336b) and 
probably very close to 137.77520 oh oh oh etc. Im using ricks on7yd qrs prog 
sending a string of C's, about a 100 mins worth, dfcw half space, 24 secs 
between elements, unused spaces omitted and a reapeat time of 101 mins, so 
only short rests between bursts of 60v circa 20amps on the supply  line. Ive 
put a fan of the tx just to circulate the air a bit over the outboard LPF 
and main PA modules but its pretty cool  even though we have been running 
+24hr on these ground/sky propagation tests within the US. I did manage to 
burn (flame smoke etc) out the remote RF current meter yesterday in the atu 
shack with too much dissipation on the termination  R across the secondary 
of the sense coil, I knew that was going to happen sooner or later..The sig 
source DDS components are all here and its just time before putting it 
together and freeing up the sig gen hardware.
