[GreenKeys] Proposed Autostart Net Frequencies

Mon, 3 May 2004 12:12:52 -0500

Hi Eric, 

10.133 gets my vote as well.  I particularly like it because anyone that
puts a station on that frequency could conceivably continue to operate
on other ham bands at the same time.  Perhaps by putting a crystal
filter in the receiver antenna lead, one could also simultaneously
operate on the other ham bands.

I am going ahead with setting up on 10.133 unless we hear a groundswell
in support of another frequency.  

Best regards & 73's -- Roy, K4EEG

   Here in New England 7083 and frequencies around it get occupied by
European SSB a couple of hours before sunset, continuing on
past local midnight here.  And, during any DX SSB contest, the whole 40m
band right on down to 7030 or even lower is full of SSB.
In major CW contests (especially domestic North America contests) this
area of the band will fill with CW signals as well.

   We can avoid all the above problems by using 10.133.
