[PaQSO] 40 meter problems at WA3SES

[ed.miske@kennametal.com]

Thanks to all who put up with my "warble" on 40 meters. To my knowledge it
sounded like clipping on 40 phone and on CW sounded like freq shifting by a
few hunderd cycles.....'scuse me......hertz.

I'm still not sure what was going on. It may have been something local,
such as antenna interaction or maybe the grounding I did.

To my knowledge it did not start until about 2100z and was limited to 40
meters, CW and Phone.

At first I thought it was the grounding for sure. That was the first thing
I suspected and removed all grounds and it seemed to go away. But it was
back on Sunday.

I changed to the backup rig for 40 meters after that but even there I was
told by K9UIY that the freq was still varying. He told me the same thing on
Saturday when I was on the Mark V and when he told me the same thing on
Sunday, and I was on the 940 I just chalked it up to "flash back" on his
part.

But maybe not.

Anyone having comments on my signal(s), 40 meters or other wise,
appreciated..

Score detail (by band) to follow, but looks like 214k.
