TIL will go into key down mode on 137778.00Hz and will phase shift on the following sked starting at 0100UTC.
 
H, H+15, H+30, H+45
 
I have concerns on the ability of my antenna matching xfmr to handle the power so I may need to shunt feed the antenna and shutdown to do this later so I can't assure you I'll be on continuously.
 
I'm currently working on the second 1KW deck which should be ready for tests tomorrow... The plan is to determine the point where my coil melts or I get a report from EU.
 
As a side note the combined stages are far more stable then a lone stage...  The DC input current varies 1/2 as much as a lone stage with antenna variations in the wind... I expect this to improve even further with the 4 port combiner used for the 2KW version.
 
Monitor my grabber at http://www3.telus.net/sthed/argo/ for some local feedback as to my current status.

Hi Scott,

thank you very much. As I don't currently have a way to lock the receiver and soundcard to GPS, the best I can do is narrow spectrograms, and there are no magic numbers regarding frequency selection. I would probably select a frequency in the TA waterhole (137776 to 781) as it is monitored by several people, including Hartmut whose antennas are some 10 dB better than mine.

73 and best of luck,

Markus, DF6NM

If you like I can place TIL on this evening starting at local sunset ~0100UTC on a different frequency then John.  I'd like to do some key down tests on the new 1KW amp module so I could kill two birds with one stone.
 
Please advise on a frequency that would work.  I can do anything a AD9850 will allow feed with a 20MHz disp. osc. will allow.
