Friday (28 april) arround 22UT I had a good copy of Marco's 10mW signal,
both with Spectran and Spectogram.
Some screenshots can be found at my webpage :

Although, based on the difference in bandwidth, Spectran was supposed to be
7.5dB better I had the impression that the difference in SNR between
Spectran and Spectogram was less.
Further I noticed that launching another application while running Spectran
caused a kind of 'frequency shift' (see screenshot at my webpage).
Finaly I want to thank Marco for the beacon signal, it gave many hams the
opportunity to do some testing and proved what can be achieved with 10mW ERP.
At the risk of being 'greedy' I would suggest following to Marco : would it
be possible to have a series a characters at reduced power after the call ?
eg. : 'IK1ODO X Y Z' where IK1ODO is tranmitted at 10mW ERP, X at 5mW ERP,
Y at 2.5mW ERP and Z at 1.25mW ERP (of course any other 3 characters can be
used).
