	Tuning WWV at 10mhz, checking with another receiver set to AM to make sure
the signal was in the segment without the tone, I have the 20 - 30 hz offset
and I can tune it closer by zerobeating with SPOT. So far I have trouble
using SPOT to zero beat CW, the tones being too short for me to get the
beat, and as a result I think I can tune better by bringing the tones from
CWN and CWR closer in pitch. My inexperience with CW is likely showing.
Maybe another function for an LED above LOC?

	Maybe I'll just leave it as sort of a badge.
