Dear Dick,
 
Most QRSS activity is usually centred = on 137.7kHz=20 +/- a few 10s of Hz. 3s/dot is the norm, and usually quite adequate for = QSOs=20 around Europe.
 
See
http://www.qsl.n= et/on7yd/136narro.htm#Operating
for some explanation of QRSS operating = procedure=20 and an example QSO.
 
I would add a couple of things = -
 
-Pick a frequency without any Loran=20 lines
 
-Don't try to tune to the exact = frequency of the=20 station you are calling, use a slightly different frequency from the = other=20 stations active; you only need a few Hz seperation. That way everyone = who is QRV=20 can read all the other stations transmitting = simultaneously.
 
-Use "break-in" mode - ie. set QRS up = to switch=20 back to receive between your transmitted characters - this saves a lot = of time=20 if you "double" with someone!

Thanks all for the comments about = QRSS=20 programms.
I have Rik's programm on my laptop=20 now.
Seems to work!
 
Now have to build the = interfaces
 
 
Next question of course is where to=20 transmit?
 
In other words, what are the usual = European QRSS=20 frequencies and speeds?
Are there any other things to think = off when=20 starting QRSS tests?
