Hi Peter,

Hello VLF,
I like to do some local test here with Spectrum lab setings (and who knows, High ERP transmissions later  :-)
I have here a notebook that generates a signal with the Signal generator in Spectrum Lab at 8970.1 Hz.
It has a Loop connected at the input and thats how it is locked to a GDO (HWU, FTA, what is available)
I tried several, and that Lock wondow gets green, but output looks terrible.
To radiate the signal I use a pice of wire at the notebook LS output.
 
Below two grab's over the same periode of time.
My localy generated signal at 8970.100 Hz and for comparison the signal of DJ8WX at 8970.022 Hertz.
 
Both grab's are made with the same Spectrum Lab task.
 
Why does my signal look like a widband FM transmission ?

That can happen when multiple phase glitches occur on the PC, sound output. Try to use a different sample rate, maybe 44100 instead of 48000.
Try to run SL exclusively, i.e. no other programs and internet usage (everthing that may take a high CPU load) and see if it makes a difference.
The signal of DJ8WX is clear. That reduces the possible errors...
