[NCARC] [DSES] DSES Open House

[David Eckhardt]

Myron:

Please refresh our (aging) memories as to what HF frequencies you will be
populating so I can monitor and keep up with the progress on the feed.
Likely 40-meters would be best.  Also, would like to know via the HF comm
if the feed works and what bands and frequencies I might give it a try in
working you.
