Questions if you don't mind:

1.  What is your wattage at the wall for 231.25M (please include other relevant data such as ambient room temp and PSU efficiency).
2.  What are the rest of the parameters (i.e. 'freq_value' and 'timeout') for 231.25M?
3.  How does one come up with the appropriate 'freq_value' and 'timeout' for a particular frequency?  Is there a certain formula/equation involved or is it pretty much a trial and error method?

Pardon my ignorance in this matter.




sure here is a full config file

with bonus extras

bold type are ones I found and tested

timeout is found by using the close timeout on the factory set ones.

 an example of a 'timeout' for 256.25 was done at 15   I found it to work  I tried it because factory freq 250 uses freq 16
