| I ran the beacon for a few days on 30m with my 10.140MHz crystal but had no reports. On New Year's day 2008, I changed the crystal for 40m. I have several 40m crystals and chose to use a 7,014 kHz crystal. The frequency was set at about 7,014,130. Later, Peter DL6NL sent me a 7,000kHz crystal, and I was able to move to the favoured QRSS sub-band of 7,000,850 +/- 50Hz. The following reports are in reverse chronological order (most recent first): 10-Jan-08: Peter DL6NL's new crystal: 7,000,850 10mW|  | Les G3VYZ, 09:49 Thanks for the first report on the new crystal!
