Hi,

I just acquired the 20M board and set it up to transmit into my Magnetic 
Loop (tuned accurately to the WSPR transmit frequency of 14.097100).

I have run this unit for many hours without anyone receiving my 
signals.  Measured output on my power meter shows 90 mW and on my 
spectrum analyzer the signal looks very clean and shows with around 
100mW output.

Measured frequency of transmissions are up to 200Hz different to what is 
being shown on the WSPR data screen in my Win10 PC - could this be the 
reason no one decodes my transmissions?

If I use my Yaesu FT-450 throttled down to as low as I can get it 
(150mW) into my loop antenna I get numerous received reports so it seems 
the loop antenna is not the problem. Using WSPR Ver 2.0_r174.

I'm new to the forum so hope I do not breach any of the rules!!

73,
