BTW, most of the transceivers today "offset" the Receiver to a 600-700 Hz 
difference from the dial reading, other wise there would be no tone just 
"silence" received when the station that keys his rig up on the frequency 
your dial reads.  Read your transceiver manual!  This is sometimes a 
programmable "offset", what ever is comfortable for the operator.


Yes we are going to have to be careful to avoid any possible problems with 
"Primary users" of the channels we use!

A further note on PSK-31.  It is easy to generate "spurious sidebands" by 
over driving the transceiver from the PSK interface!  Most people who do 
this, mostly "newbies" unknowingly, usually get "unholy hell" raised with 
them once or twice before they get things adjusted properly.  Other PSK 
users will also raise hell with you for running TOO MUCH power!  MOST 
IMPORTANT in PSK environments is use only as much as you need to maintain a 
QSO!  Save yourself "grief" and the guy who might be next to you on the band 
from some by being very careful about this.  It is REAL EASY to misadjust 
things so your signal isn't "clean"!  Fortunately on 60 meters, your "Linear 
Amplifier" isn't allowed!

73 to all,

Sandy W5TVW
