I would also like to join you all. Though the vfo is stable, I checked
overnight against the existing transmissions, it has only 1Hz setting
resolution.

It would appear that the USA/VE group look between 135.920 and
135.923, although the picture sent to me by Jon covered .919 to .925
on the 30s dot setting.
My transmission on Friday/Sat was on .919.7. Last night I moved up to
.920.7. because I understood I would be outside the search window.
On the 4th of Feb Markus listed the stations transmitting as follows:
924.15 ZP(V)?
923.4 G3XDV
923.0 M0MBU (very good frequency marker)
922.5 G3XTZ
922.3 G3YXM
921.7/.8 G3AQC (DFCW)
921.4/.6 G4JNT (DFCW)
As I said I will be on
920.7 G3LDO
From Markus's picture QRSS stations .2HZ apart (DFCW needs a little
more room) are quite readable so you can slot yourself in. Like
Brian I only have 1Hz setting resolution and I don't have the
confidence to do that so I will stay where I am on the edge!.
According to Jon's picture there is space below 920.7. to 919.0,
where there is a Loran line. This Loran line also shows up on VE2ZJ's picture
These pictures from Dave's web site are a great help to us over here.
The only improvement I can suggest is to align the receiver and Argo
frequency settings so that they are direct reading.
I am not sure of tonights transmission times but I will be on in the
morning from around 0400UTC
BTW. My ukonline site seems to have trouble receiving attached files.
This one seems OK though.
