Hi Rob,

Sorry if I state the obvious, but two things that got me a couple of times
are the frequency offset (e.g dial of 10,147 (mode is USB, audio 1Khz) for
center frequency of 10,148, and psk mode (PSK250 instead of PSK125 ) for
example.

But if you are monitoring the screen of the server over the internet, then
you can simply use fldigi by itself and adjust the various parameters until
you see what you type. I am not sure what is the refresh rate of the
internet page though.

Good luck.
