Someone  on my Facebook Group _https://www.facebook.com/groups/HFmonitors_ 
(https://www.facebook.coom/groups/HFmonitors)   asked me what method I use 
to monitor HF.  Made me realize there are a  lot of newcomers to HF who 
wonder the same thing because unlike UHF/VHF  monitoring, HF requires more active 
participation from the person  monitoring.
 
So  here was my response.  Others might have different methods of  
monitoring HF:
 
I  push numbers. I have a list of MWARA freqs in consecutive order. At 
night I  start with the 2 Megs and punch in 2889 and work my way up to the 6 
Megs  freqs. In the daytime I mostly listen to HF-GCS 11175 or 8992; also MARS  
13927; sometimes go to USCG 8983. Every now and then I spin the dial 
upwards  or downwards slowly from the freq I am sitting on. I also have a list of  
LDOC freqs and love to punch them in. No magic; just ordinary monitoring.
