Far as I can tell, they have NEVER done that. That is a sore point to start with, but can you imagine a time when there is never a psk signal on that band (and the band is open?) I cant! The stupid part of it all is that the whole band is available for CW, so why cant they find someplace where there are no signals, and not near a narrow band signal? Another suggestion is on top of some ssb net that is just a bunch sitting around telling others to get off their freq especially when someone else was there first) There are lots of those useless nets.

Many home brew low power rigs, psk included, use the standard and very cheap 3.579 TV color burst crystal. 73 Bill -- Andy
