[MRCG] Clatternet

[Jim Falls]

I still kick myself over the power lines on 2 sides of the yard. However, I wasn't a ham yet - didn't know any better  

I found my stash of SoftRock SDRs. I'll build the one for 40 this winter. See if I can finagle an interface. 

Cheers!

There was lots of QRN and QRM, including narrow-shift right between our tones. I find that FLDIGI ignores the narrow shift just fine as long as my AGC doesn't get hit too hard, but I hear that sets like the GRC-46 can't deal with jammers between the mark and space tones. We did a QSY down 1 Kc to get away from the worst jammer, and that may have confused things still further. And then the band seemed to go long.
