Mike, thanks very much for the reports/captures! Worked on the slash 
code yesterday with Bob, NK9M, but didn't accomplish much. The dashes 
still bottom out and now there's a bigger pedestal on the dots and 
dashes compared to the idle frequency. Oh well, learned some things 
(like the OCXO center voltage is 2 V, not 2.5 V and the batteries had 
run out of water) so will eventually return and get it right. Plan to 
increase the ramp period to 5 minutes or so to improve weak signal 
detection.
