OK, thanks folks. My comments were really in jest (really! they were!); I
best survive the stressful times by making fun of everything, myself
especially.
So. I went through the Course and Fine BFO alignments again, all the while
mumbling to myself that "I've already DONE this a bunch of times over the
past few days, but maybe I just haven't done right yet, and #$*% this
radio, anyway". (Believe me, I KNOW it's not the radio, but a problem with
the interface between the radio and the chair ;-] ) So then of course I
got on the air on 30 meters where it seemed fairly clear but were still
signals present, called CQ a few dozen times, and got an answering call
from WA3IKQ. Guess what; he was still way off my freq. $%&#@%^ it! Now,
bear with me. I came back inside, decided to read through email for a
while, looked at Andy Wallace's message again, and you know what? I STILL
had plum forgotten to go and do the Transmit Offset Alignment. I mean,
I've only gone through this alignment stuff a dozen times during the past
few days. Boy, I guess those medical treatments I've had really DID affect
my brain. Oh, well. Back to it.
