Mooneer and David T,

Back to my main point, we need, mentioned on our websites, a "standard" 
frequency

or frequencies for, other than simplex, automated "freebeacons" etc..

Also, "recommended" text strings to trigger those that transmit back.

On the subject of "transmitting back" we have a wonderful "repeater in the 
sky", Full Duplex,

the Ionosphere, it reflects back short-wave signals magnificently.

BUT mostly for frequencies well under 50MHz.

I see Digital Voice HF radio allowing wide area communications to remote areas 
and better still,

with a system of repeaters, those remote stations can communicate with each 
other!

Posting the received audio on a website is of no use to the vehicle out in the 
"boon docks"

with no internet.

BTW: Did you know JS8Call can "repeat"?

It though is not a voice mode so is not very useful to vehicles.
