[Elecraft] Elecraft Frequencies

[Daniel Reynolds]

Hey there gang... still no remarks from all of you out there (not even a
suggestion to drop the topic) - I guess I'll just keep hounding until someone
either agrees or disagrees...

Simply put - I propose that K2 operators (and K1's also) should call 2 kHz
above the normal QRP frequencies. Call whenever you can. AND... just like the
HFPack group - if you are on and don't hear anyone calling CQ, call CQ
yourself.

For operators in the U.S. the following Elecraft call frequencies will apply...

1812
3562/3712
7042/7112
10108
14062
18098 (QRM? de W1AW)
21062/21112
24908
28062/28112

"CQ CQ CQ ECFT DE AA0NI AA0NI K"

Is someone already using the frequency? Then QSY within +/- 0.4 kHz of the call
frequency. Most K1/K2's are probably set up to handle filtering as tight as 200
Hz, so it seems feasible that we could have 5 QSO's operating on or near the
call frequency (e.g. 7041.6, 7041.8, 7042.0, 7042.2, 7042.4). I've chosen the
800 Hz bandwidth to comply with the widest filter setting of the K1. Any
Elecraft owner should be able to sit on the call frequency with their filter
set to 800+ Hz bandwidth and hear any call on or near the call frequency. 

In summary
==========
No special times to call - call anytime. Call 2.0 kHz (+/- 0.4) above the
normal QRP frequencies. Call "CQ ECFT". Exchange model and serial number.
That's all there is to it. 

Have fun contacting other Elecraft owners!
