[Lowfer] LF ham bands

[N1BUG]

I'm not certain about 630 meters. I'm not currently active there so I 
just know what I see being announced on the various forums. I know there 
has been some FST4W-300 but am not sure if anyone is currently doing it. 
A week or so ago I saw at least one European say he would try FST4W-1800 
but I'm not sure how that test went.

I think many people feel the QSB cycle is too fast for the very long 
periods on 630 meters. That may be. I recall it was faster than on 2200 
meters. 1800 seconds is working out very well on the lower band.

73,
Paul
