For those who may be interested, the Canterbury Mountain Radio Service
www.mountainradio.co.nz hires out HF QRP radios to the general public for
hiking, mountaineering, and other back-country travel here in ZL. Main
operating frequency is 3261 kHz USB. There are typically about 12 emergency
calls handled per year. The service works well, providing fairly reliable
coverage of the South Island of New Zealand. Schedules occur daily at 0630
or 0730 UTC with weather reports and message passing. There is also a phone
patch system available. The antennae are of NVIS design, so DX signals will
likely be poor, but any signal reports would be gratefully received.
Will the users typically depend on trees for antennas, or are they carrying
some sort of telescopic pole?
