Sorry, the first frequency should read 14.078 NOT .087 Hi Jack, Are these frequencies CENTER frequencies? I will try to connect you today sometime and keep trying different times until we can link.

IF a few people want to coordinate other dial frequencies and standardize on a different tone set, I am happy to change anything needed. Just had to start somewhere :-) Sadly, my antenna cannot accommodate 30 metres.. 73s Jack VK4JRC

Similar to using a 40m antenna on 15m. 73, Skip KH6TY Skip, Thanks for that. Unfortunately its a Cushcraft MA-5V 20m through 10m, incl WARC bands :-( I am working on a 30m solution, can do auto antenna switching off the TNC scan function, so I can run a second separate antenna, to fix my problem. Another job to dosometime! 73s Jack VK4JRC

I will also try your 18MHZ and 14MHZ qrgs. 73s Jack VK4JRC 73 de Demetre SV1UY OK Demetre, I will leave it run for another hour or so, before I go to bed. I would leave it run all night, but the transceiver band switching relays will keep me awake! Fire it up again at 1900z 73s Jack VK4JRC

Fire it up again at 1900z FB Jack, I will try again at 19.00z although probability is 1-25% because ShortPath MUF is on 12MHZ at that time but you never know. LongPath MUF is 14MHZ but really the best time for LongPath QSO between us is 07.00z - 10.00z, but you might be busy then. 73s Jack VK4JRC 73 de Demetre SV1UY
