Well, Thanks for looking men, It can't be any worse than WSPR....
No one could get a decode from me with it. I have been reading
the Tech notes on JASON, and it says that in Normal mode, a drift
of 4 Hz during any tone could still possibly decode as long as the
drift dosen't go outside of the receive window. I have been watching 
the signal with a program called " Visual Analyzer ", it has a 
spectrum graph, oscilloscope , and frequency counter that run
concurrently. ( software based of course ), and the frequency counter
set to sample at .31 Hz ( very quick sampling )shows it to be jumping
around quite a bit, but within the usual 2 down / 2 up routine from
the center frequency. I can only hope that the oscillator will stay
within the drift tolerance for JASON.  Again guy, I thank you for 
your patience, and effortsto help me while I put this thing together.
It's on for the night, and once I " hit the hay " it will go where 
it goes. The characters I'm transmitting are:   XR4TN-EM75XR  ,,,,
So if you get anything close to that,maybe it's me < grin >
