G'day Markus,

just a quick clarification - it wasn't me, it was Dale VK1DSH that
transmitted the famous packet received in France. Since that incident,
we changed our WSPR frequency to comply with the European one and we
will be transmitting as often as we can in order to find out if this
can be repeated! Dale is radiating similar amounts of RF to me, which
I calculate to be around 0.5 W.

73, Dimitris
