[Lowfer] Playing with WSPR-15

[John Andrews]

Bill,

Yeah, I'm guessing that the clock re-syncs might be an issue. I didn't 
monitor myself, due to the incompatibility of WSPR-X and my other 
computer. But Garry, Lloyd and others seemed to be getting regular decodes.

I probably won't run 15 again tonight. May try good old DFCW to assess 
the TA chances.
