[ILQSO] Re: updates, logging program and more

[Hank Greeb]

I thimk I heard that "up 50 KHz from the bottom of the band" was the 
suggested CW Frequencies. Someone mentioned the suggested phone 
frequencies, but I seldom remember those things until the very day of 
the operation.  The suggested CW frequencies are all within the General 
Class band.  The only folks we'd miss are Tech+ and Novice operators, 
which are few and far between these daze.  Perhaps the suggested 
operating frequencies should be put on the web site (or more prominently 
on the web site if I missed them.)

I'll try to be on SSB, and will be on 146.55 MHz from time to time, but 
CW has been the mainstay for my State QSO Party operations.

73 de n8xx Hg (N9Q at the CHAM/DOUG/EDGR/VERM intersection during ILQP)
