Hi Dexter,
Vy interesting to read your article and see your shack - a lot of kit there!
A couple of points though. The name is John not Jim. More importantly Sandy,
WB5MMB, says that the line at 136.750 is not the WA2XTF beacon. He measured
the beacon at 136.7446 and sent a jpg showing the effects of the crystal
temperature change during keying.
Tonight I am monitoring 136.7446 and seeing a line at 136.74475. However it
doesn't show the cyclic change reported by Sandy.
It is now 22.46 and I will leave it monitoring until 08.00 tomorrow and let
you know what I see.
I have a Loran line at 136744.8993 Hz, which I have identified earlier from
a wider view and so can be very precise about the frequency, at least to .01
Hz.
Vy 73, John, G4CNN
