The frequency you were trying (14,235 khz) is right smack in the middle of slow scan TV. That's probably what you were fighting. Much lower would be better, but then you probably exclude many non-extras. So, I would suggest you go to the very top of the band, maybe around 14,345 khz. You could move down from there, subject to QRM, but watch out for 14,336 khz, which is where the county-hunters hang out. Somewhere in that top 10 khz portion of the band I suspect you have a good chance of finding a clear spot. Maybe someone else knows if there is anything else up there I'm not aware of.

Current schedule is SUNDAY 1800 UTC 14.235 MHz

Today was the third Sunday in a row that there was strong digital activity on 14.235 and 14.240. I called for the net half-way in
between, but hear nobody (of course it is Easter).

Shall we start moving up from there? Any suggestions?

Well 14230-14235 is the international SSTV frequency. You will be VERY
unpopular there!
