VK2RSY - Frequency accuracy on 2m & 70cm?

Post by VK2EXT »

Just installed Ebay TCXO-9 module in my ancient FT817 and checking rx against Dural VK2RSY beacon.
Can anyone with GPSDO capability report how accurate VK2RSY frequency currently is on 2m & 70cm?
Much appreciated.

Sorry I can't help u on that - no GPS sync.

Could someone might be able to advise if 2m beacon radiates constant power or if it is stepped.
Have noticed variations in strength here.

Check the beacon database on here it lists if GPS locked/ TXCO etc. and actual freq. Do some Dxing and see what you can hear.
