After corresponding with Wayne a little today, I have my XG3 running a
0dBm into a Parr 6M stressed Moxon aimed South at about 45' agl, CN87xo,
just east of Seattle. The frequency set on the XG3 is 50.025MHz, my
K3/10 thinks it is a little lower but not by much. The XG3 is set to
send 5 seconds of 0dBm tone, then W7RDP/B at 15 wpm CW, then 10 seconds
of tone at 0dBm, repeating every 60 seconds.
One thing I found out is to add a word space before the call otherwise
the first letter is truncated, and I added one after just in case.
73, Doug W7RDP
