Hi all, I've been listening and transmitting on 7177KHz LSB but hear nobody. 14150 and 14153 both have interference here so I've occasionally tried on 14236KHz but again nothing.
I've "asked" on VKLOGGER and AHRDF. It seems there's all but nobody willing to compile the sourcecode and run it except Mark VK5QI and me. http://ahrdf.net/ and http://www.vklogger.com/ Does this show, just how few hams have Linux expertise? I have not switched on a Windoze box for months, no need. Anyway, I'm looking forward to some on-air tests. No 73 valves here, nearest here a 6BK4.
