Rob,

I just raised the TX power to 70 watts, I can hear and decode VK5AH & 
ZL2TZE about strength 2 and I have checked Rx freq is locked to Tx. 
My TNC can decode sigs up to +/- 400Hz off freq and log the 
differences. I can set it to auto track a station which means I can 
"lock" onto an off freq received station and transmit back on the 
detected Rx freq. I have left that function off, for now.

Jack.
