Hi Jay, Chris, LF,
first option: To check sensitivity
and frequency lock, I like to keep a Loran
line in at least one of the two display slots. In Europe,
the Sylt + Lessay line on 137778.37045 would be my natural
choice.
Another option would be to simply move
down to 137780.00 center. Integer Hz multiples would allow to build a
relatively simple GPS-synchronized TX, based on a sample-hold at
1pps. Of course this QRG could then only be used by one station
at a time.
In case someone overseas would like to set up
a narrow grabber, I'd suggest 136170.00 center for European TA
transmissions. Looking into the other direction, I guess the prospect of
sub-millihertz grabbers in the Far-east or Pacific areas might stimulate quite a
bit of activity.
Best 73,
Markus (DF6NM)

We previously discussed moving the uHz
grabber to avoid QRM to QRSS30 beacon MP (VE3OT) on ~137780.3 - 137780.4.
Do you and Chris have a new frequency in mind?
