So I get a call from a friend who just got an old FT-101 going,
and we met on 40m SSB to check that mode out, calibration,
bandpass, etc.
Well it turned out that his old Yaesu was about 350 cycles high
on LSB. So I punched in the rit and we chatted for a little while.
I soon realized that I was close to an ongoing net about 500 cycles down,
so we quickly wrapped it up.
It was then that we were informed by someone that we were BOTH
off frequency by 200 cycles, and could not understand how we were
even communicating with each other.
SSBers... you gotta love 'em.
tu de Rich, N8UX.
