Testing on 6940 AM/USB
« on: December 12, 2015, 0034 UTC »
This is probably pointless until I get my amplifier up and running properly, but I am preparing to test on 6940 AM, followed by 6940 USB.  Probably try about 15 minutes on each.  Using a slightly different antenna mounting location, so we'll see if we're making progress.

I have a very weak carrier on 6939.91 kHz. Not sure if this is you, or not.

Big band/swing music at the moment, but that may change.  I'm about to switch over to USB.  I'll be camped out on 6940 for tonight, alternating between AM and USB with some breaks here and there.
