Both were on 30 Meters . The local QRN was non-existant and since today is the layoff weekend between AFC and NFC Championship football and the Super Bowl , I am not all that surprised . This is why I'm leaning towards the culprit being a Plasma . TV Anyway , the QSOs were with PJ2 AA9A and KI9E . I used the Butternut HF9V in both cases .

The 481THz red light beacon sends my callsign in either 10wpm CW , QRSS30 or QRSS60 as well as a continuous carrier or a 30sec on off sequence . The TX uses a sub-carrier of 1.082kHz or 8.659kHz , the frequency being derived from an HF crystal divided down in a 4060. The message comes from a K1EL K-ID2 programmed PIC . Initial tests this afternoon at dusk allowed me to copy the 1.082kHz 10wpm CW sub-carrier signal by reflection off a wall across the street at decent . strength My next
