Hi Bill,

Sorry, I did not notice that your original email referred to the K3 until I
had already sent a reply. I'll be darned if I know why the database isn't
reflecting your transmissions with the K3, since drift is essentially zero
(at least with mine). I assume you're xmting on the right frequency, which
of course you will be if you are decoding signals okay. The only way I know
to check for such a close freq tolerance is to run a WSPR listening program
on another rig. A no-drift signal will be a perfect horizontal line, while
a drifty one will show up as a curve. Maybe you can check with a nearby
ham...?

Do you have the transmit audio gain set right? When WSPR is transmitting,
you should show 4 dots, with the 5th just flickering. Here's a word from
the expert. It refers to PSK, but the same applies to WSPR:

best of luck,
