[Lowfer] 160m wspr2 tonite

Lloyd: Thanks for the reminder.  I had not used digital mode in a year and I 
forgot that my FT-817 displays the transmit freq as the "dial" frequency 
when selecting "DIG" vs USB....

Rx "dial" tonite for now 1.836590.  There is likely a way for me to run 
split and have 1.83660 on rx and separate tx frequency....I'll give that a 
look before I post anything to lowfer list

Also using my 18x 70 x 18 foot EWE with ground wire as rx/tx antenna this 
evening. 2.5W out (+34)  and 1 W (+30)absorbed at the termination in shack 
(ME 11 B/U watt meter) for +30 on transmit.  EZ-NEC says my EWE is -16 peak 
front lobe gain --- likely some capacitive coupling to my short ground plane 
vertical.... Once it gets dark in the midwest I will switch from NE to 
SW....
