Having WLINK2000 shoved down our throats is enough, but to even work it the equipment is expensive. I don't mind that the freq's listed above are the main ones used or even that the ARRL uses theirs for code pratice, but and this is a BIG BUT, they should not be automatic stations, that someone, somewhere should listen before they transmit to see if there are other stations using the freq. There will be someone who says that they might not hear the stations in QSO's and, that is possible, then again they might, and from what I have seen/heard from being in QSO's when these stations come on, they have interfered with my contacts. Remember if you can hear them, you can work them saying. Well if I can hear the wlink, they can hear me. Seem now that everybody is trying to stake out their special freq's. NTS system think they own their special freq's, work all whatever nets have their, and the frequency police will let you know if you get on their's even if they are not being used. A lot of egos involved in this. Kurt K8YZK
