[Lowfer] 29.499 to continue with OP2H...

[Garry Hess]

Started spec lab late so just got signal acquisition. Despite the 
approaching lightning storm deep search opera yielded an early detection 
with the loop antenna aimed at Bob:

2014-03-12 01:41:24 WH1XBA 934km 29499.024Hz 1mHz -47.0dBOp 72% 17.4dB

Carried out a sound card recalibration just a few hours ago but still 
seem to have a significant offset from 29499 Hz. The calibration was 
done at 100 kHz using my regular spec lab settings. When more time 
permits I'll repeat it with the deep search settings for spec lab. May 
need to fudge the FFT offset frequency setting a bit from 1575.0 Hz. Not 
running regular opera tonight since that overloads the Windows XP PC. 
ARGO at QRSS30 is running and showing Bob's signal decently, but not as 
good as early last night.
