[Lowfer] Lowfer SIW

[N8OOU]

JD,

Thanks for putting in the time looking for our beacons. When I made my 
last change to the WM Lowfer and removed the the GPS Calibration period, 
it reduced the gap between the repeats of the ID. I didn't realize that, 
at the time, and how much it would impact the readability. From the 
captures you guys have made with real life band noise, QSB, and short 
gap, I see how hard it is to decipher.

I will take the beacon down in the morning, and change the ID message to 
straight QRSS 30 CW.  This change will not take very long, I should have 
it done before noon CST. I will set the frequency to 185,301 for now, to 
stay above the squiggler that KU4XR has on his end.

My captures and monitoring over the past few days has given me the 
confidence that the hardware is now stable frequency wise, and can send 
CW without key clicks or chirps.

Again, Thanks for the feedback.  Mike.
