Ha!  I'll shut up. 

If I wasn't running a "Yaecomwood" and fldigi, I'd never know. Like the people who'd complain I was 30Hz off when I was running my Swan as Control for a local HF net. Look in the dictionary under "hoisted on his own petard", hi hi!

Any contemplating a move to 80m in the future? 1730 is Prime Time at my house on Sundays. 

Cheers!

When we get doubles with one of the stations 75-100 Hz off, fldigi can easily pick out either one! I don't expect my other rigs to be so selective though. Or even if they are, tuning them probably won't be as easy as clicking on the desired signal on a waterfall display. But it'll be so much more cool if moving parts are involved.
