Graham,
I haven't connected the PTT to the PC, just key.
When in the shack I can switch to RX manually, but otherwise not.
I just re-tuned the VXO to Andy's frequency and started the TX.
First transmission will be at 17:06 utc, tonight just a 10 sec carrier
overlapping the 20-25 sec slot followed by a CW is.
Power 200mW ERP as last night.

Quoting Graham <[email protected]>:
Rik,
Do you have rx function running as well ?

Thanks to all who reported.
Conclusion of the first overnight test: stability of the current VXO
is not optimal as the signal drifted several 10Hz during the night.
It seems that the 5MHz recording software at G4WGT did catch my
signal, despite the drift.
Unless there is a specific demand for a QRSS signal, tonight I will
just transmit a short carrier during the +6:25 to +6:30 slot
followed by CW id.
Meanwhile I am working on a HF to 500kHz transverter + 150W linear PA
what should allow me to use digital modes but also a more stable CW
(QRSS/DFCW) signal.
