I called CQ and was surprised to hear (or see on the grabber first!) someone calling, off my frequency. The grabber is great for that! A quick retune of the RX and there you were. Your signal was good, even in a wide 2.4kHz filter, despite the QRN and QSB. There's a short clip of the full recording at : http://www.gm4slv.org.uk/sounds.htm I left the RX tuned to you, so my "sidetone" is rather high-pitched! Thanks for this season's best 2 way 500kHz DX, 1102km. John GM4SLV IP90GG Shetland
