Hi Peter,
Thanks very much for the modification information. I'll watch and read up and if I feel it's doable with my modest abilities, I'll probably have a crack at it. I've had several WSPR

Re: WSPR Receive Frequency on QCX Mini With TCXO
Hi Bruce,
I'm getting nothing on 14.0971. However, as per Peter's suggestion, 14.0964 provided a few hits late yesterday evening. Hopefully, there'll be more today when the band wakes up.
