The key is to use a 25 MHz high-quality TCXO, like the 25 MHz HCI 0.5ppm TCXO! 2m WSPR is still out of reach for this VFO design - see the following drifty screenshots: While WSPR is no bueno, 2m FT8 works pretty fine! Of course, the next challenge is to get 2m WSPR beacons working at a low-cost. ...
