[Lowfer] WA calling Les!

Mon, 21 Jan 2002 10:52:34 -0500

Hi Les,

I plan to alternate 1w and 10mw tonight on the E/W loop at QRSS30. Also, the
plan is to implement a double slant to the start and finish of each WA.
Please give this a look!

Bill WA

PS: Sorry, but didn't get to look for your signal over the WE. Just too
hectic at my end.

Bill,

Yes, QRSS30 is fine. Your thoughts about code length vs. number of captures 
might
be valid. I often run all my sessions for QRSS60 in QRSS30 modes for that
very
reason.

I'll be happy to run captures for your beacon tonight. I will likely switch 
over to
look for BRO again at 6:00AM CST, when I awake.

Hoping to add Alabama to your list of receptions tonight!

73,

Les Rayburn, N1LF
