[Lowfer] WSPR on the air from Friendsville, TN.

[Andy - KU4XR]

Good day Jay:

Well thank you for taking the time to look though. I wanted to see
how stable the radio would be in continuous beacon mode. After 
heating up the inside of the case, it settled down to about a 2 Hz
drift, moving between 181.511 and 181.512 ... In 50% transmit it
moves around 4 to 6 Hz. The radio is 23 years old, and wasn't 
built for super stability anyway, so for what it is; I suppose it
is as good as one could expect. I'll try ovenizing the crystal and
see if that helps to keep drift down some. The transverter itself
is very stable.  Again thanks for looking and 73 to you ::::
