I'd be interested.
I've been trying to get a couple of the local guys interested enough to do
local testing, but everyone is a bit too busy right now, or they don't have
their PC's tied to their HF rigs yet.
I'd be willing to setup a periodic beacon while I'm home in the evening
(approx. 0300-1400 GMT). Since I'm in northwest Washington state picking a
frequency that has half a chance of making it between us is going to be the
difficult part.
