[NLRS] WSPR on Tuesday

[Dave Fugleberg]

for those of you with an IC-9700...how stable to you find it to be?  I'm
seeing a lot of traces in the waterfall with significant drift (like 30-50
Hz) over the course of the 2 minute WSPR window on 70cm.  Not nearly as
pronounced on 2m.   I have yet to copy anyone on 70cm - maybe that's why.
Has anyone added that ref lock board from Leo Bodnar to their 9700?
