I have modified my ALE station and during daylight hours I will be scanning the following channels while in the shack most of the day (I'll add 80M later tonight)
7074 USB *7102 USB *10145.5 USB 14074 USB *14109 USB * denotes standard ALE data channels commonly used by ALE stations The 14074 and 7074 frequencies are not typically monitored by ALE stations but are often used by digital mode enthusiasts for modes other than PSK31 or RTTY. I am prosing that members of this group use 7074 and 14074 using standard ALE and make occasion calls on these frequencies in attended mode . So far thjis morning I have seen [16:44:12][FRQ 10145500][SND][ ][TWS][WB6MZS ][AL0] BER 17 SN 03 (note a decode with weak signals) [16:12:01][FRQ 10145500][SND][ ][TWS][KM4BA ][AL0] BER 30 SN 06 [16:11:02][FRQ 07102000][SND][ ][TWS][WD8ARZ ][AL0] BER 26 SN 08 and surprise visitor to my station [16:44:48][FRQ 14109000][LINKED ][KA1GMN ] [16:50:28][FRQ 14109000][TO ][K3UK ][TIS][KA1GMN ][AL0] BER 28 SN 06 Who found me while I was scanning at one channel every two seconds, well done Phil. You disappeared though. I will monitor all of the listed frequencies and welcome calls. Will switch to other modes as needed after the initial link. Andy K3UK Fredonia, NY.
