Dear Dick,
Most QRSS activity is usually centred on 137.7kHz
+/- a few 10s of Hz. 3s/dot is the norm, and usually quite adequate for QSOs
around Europe.
See
for some explanation of QRSS operating procedure
and an example QSO.
I would add a couple of things -
-Pick a frequency without any Loran
lines
-Don't try to tune to the exact frequency of the
station you are calling, use a slightly different frequency from the other
stations active; you only need a few Hz seperation. That way everyone who is QRV
can read all the other stations transmitting simultaneously.
-Use "break-in" mode - ie. set QRS up to switch
back to receive between your transmitted characters - this saves a lot of time
if you "double" with someone!
Cheers, Jim Moritz

Subject: LF: QRSS QRG's
Thanks all for the comments about QRSS
programms.
I have Rik's programm on my laptop
now.
Seems to work!
Now have to build the interfaces
Next question of course is where to
transmit?
In other words, what are the usual European QRSS
frequencies and speeds?
Are there any other things to think off when
starting QRSS tests?
