[ED - Yes, don't use 146.52 (see the rules) and stay out of any repeater frequencies, satellite sub bands, cw/ssb segments ... other than that, have fun. In many areas 145.67 mHz. is the D-STAR contact frequency, I'd start there. In some areas there is little or no use of the bottom of 430 (91AD goes there, I would venture other D-STAR 70cm radios do as well.] --- In [email protected], "Woodrick, Ed" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > D-STAR Field Day Participants, > > With just over 24 hours before D-STAR Field Day begins, the excitement is growing.

From what I've seen, the C modules on the reflectors are where a number of repeaters are linked full time. To keep from bothering these folks, why don't we try to stay away from the C module.
