[Lowfer] " XR " WSPR-ing on 185.700 KHz Overnight

[Douglas D. Williams]

Andy, I have received your signal on my first attempt. I have never
used the WSPR software before and I have absolutely *no clue* what I
am doing. I simply installed it, tuned my R75 to 184.2kHz, input my
grid square and callsign, and set my computer clock with an online
atomic clock. After about five minutes, XR4TN appeared in the blue box
in the upper right corner of the WSPR screen. It is now attempting to
transmit my call (I think), which will prove futile since I only have
a receiver, LOL.

Anyway, grats! Your signal is making the 110 miles to my house just
fine. Looks like I need to read the WSPR instruction manual however.
