If it's MOVE1, then something's off.  My rig at LOS displayed
145.974.740 (145.975.340 if I change to FM).  If Move1 is at 145.970 at
TCA, it would have been down around 145.967 at LOS, about 7khz lower
than what I heard.  I also didn't catch much by way of letters in what I
heard.  A lot more dits, it seemed.  Sorry, but I didn't have a
recording set up to capture it.  Will try again in about an hour.  It's
a rather low pass off to the west, so may not be audible.
