ARRL FMT November 2023 Challenge
UPDATE of RESULT 20 November 2023
Congratulations to Paul Bennett, KD7KDO for accurately measuring ALL 4 FMT frequencies with an accuracy under 1 Hz (0.08hz, 0.52hz, 0.03hz, and 0.46hz). That is close!
The closest and only MARCA Challenger missed by many astronomical light years the same 4 FMT frequencies.
KD7KDO and AA7OO used different technical approaches to participate in the November 2023 ARRL FMT. Ask one or both of these FMT Seasoned Experts on which is the best and most accurate. The FMT is a basic skill all Amateur Hams should be able to master regardless of your license class. There will be another MARCA Challenge in 2024, so get prepared.
