Hi John, Dave, LF

I'm now sending QRSS3 on 503.485 (note the change of frequency), at least
until 2300utc and possibly all night if I'm feeling brave.

I'll be monitoring the Reflector until 2300 utc

73, Dave G3WCB IO91RM

Hi Dave etc.

I'm monitoring now, and will continue to do so all night.

I'm looking at 503.5 +/- 50Hz with SpecLab in QRSS-3 mode. I'll leave it
running all night. I'll be in or around the shack for the rest of the
day until I fall asleep in the chair!

Currently seeing something on 503.5, guess it's 'YXM, but not
really  readable yet.

Should be interesting to see what pops in and out as the sky darkens.
Now we're nearly a month past the solstice it does get dark between
2300 and 0200 local.


Regards,

John 'SLV
