I have worked Olivia on 14105-14110...also MT63, not very often, indeed.
Never checked below 14070 for digital....maybe it could be interesting.
On 40, I have found 2 watering holes: 7070-7075 and 7035-7038
I have used Olivia and Hell on 7073.
I have worked quite a few exotic DX on 7035, and would like to keep it
that way, keeping the chatter on 7070...yesterday night there were two
south african stations, making it a more interesting place to look around.
