Success! I'm QRV now and visible on ON5EX's grabber. It looks like I'm
centered at about 10.140.0010 MHz, slowly drifting down, with a shift
of 4 or 5 Hz. That is about what I estimated at home using

Hi Mike
Even I can't tell you that, sorry :-( Looks like I shrunk that diagram too much. The good news is that the values are entirely non critical. You could try with 33k in both positions to
