[Lowfer] WG2XRS/4 NY on usual 74.5495 starting 2300 till 0500 +...

[John Andrews]

JD,

I may try again tonight. The amplifier was very stable at 72.4 kHz, but I observed an oscillation when running at 74.5 last night, when using close to my max power. Gotta chase that one down. It's fine on the dummy, and there's a good match at the carrier frequency when using the antenna.

But since nothing further followed, I didn't snap any more captures at 74.55 after that, and eventually tuned up to 137 to watch MP.
