These mixed-metaphor units of measure remind me of what we used to say about
the 30 meter option for the KX1, which sold for
7030.0 - on the peak
7029.7 - a little down the south slope, couldn't make it up the last crag
7028.9 - in the car at the trailhead parking lot

If you regard QRP ARCI as a de facto authority on QRP in the US, they recommend
7030, and they call it a 'center of activity' rather than a calling frequency.
I take that to mean we should imagine a Gaussian distribution of activity above
and below this center. I imagine a standard deviation of
Factors for 40 seem to be:
1. There's often mixed digital in the 7032-7035 area, sometimes it pops
up anytime a CW signal shows up [see 14230].
2. QRP freqs can be non-productive for SOTA folks who often need to
make a number of quick QSO's and get off the mountain. They're also
looking
I believe 7.030 is the normal QRP CW frequency, at least in NA. There are a
lot of SOTA and POTA activators who seem to choose 7.060.

The longstanding QRP frequency for 40 has been 7040-European 7030.

I used to park somewhere between 7033 and 7035 overnight and would
always hear something going on it seemed. Perhaps I need to revisit
that practice.

Those with dual receive can also monitor the FISTS frequencies, usually 2
KHz below the QRP ones.
In Europe 3558 and 7028 are popular FISTS watering holes, be prepared for
long “ragchew” QSOs on there…

The opinions on this are bimodal: some say ~7030, others ~7060. Hopefully
someone else will weigh in with something more definitive.

Whenever I'm not using the K4 for something in particular, I leave it parked at
14.060 MHz, with the AF gain just high enough to catch my attention if a signal
appears. I use a medium bandwidth (1 kHz) to allow for signals a bit
off-frequency.
