Hi Bill,

Happy Holidays to you!

Thanks for the info.  My TS-850SAT has an additional frequency stability
module I could add but haven't gotten around to it. Maybe I'll go looking
for one. It doesn't have 1 Hz tuning accuracy though.

Building a transmitter wouldn't be a problem. I could put something together
on a weekend.
