Thanks John...looked like a much better night for you. That will probably be 
the last beaconing from me for a while as I want to rebuild the TX and 
package it up. As well, will probably add another chip to it so I can use my 
DDS and get rid of the chirp. As a stand alone CW TX it would be a great 
little rig as Rudy (N6LF) down in Oregon could hear it audibly quit well 
just after sunset.
