 I would think Region 2 would continue to use 7070 for 'local' QSOs and only 
 move to 7036 when looking for DX contacts out of the region.  


This is pretty much what happens.

[digitalradio] Olivia Frequencies and Modes Re: NEWBIE QUESTION FROM AC5JV

2009-11-29 Thread Juergen
Hi Bonnie,

some comments from my experience.

I have tried your proposed frequencies for Olivia and they are ok, more or 
less, but:

10142.5 will have the DK0WCY beacon directly fall into the Olivia signal, 
therefore I prefer the 10141.5 which is given in your plan as well but not as a 
center of activity. I suggest to review this situation.

7042.5 is not very well accepted as Olivia center of activity. A much better 
choice is to go to 7035.5 or 7036.5 just above the PSK activities (see another 
reply from you as well). 

Don't forget the 3581 khz USB (+1500 hz), also just above the PSK activities on 
80 m. I was very lucky last week to have a qso with VE1CDD on that frequency in 
Olivia 16/500 (around 0030 UTC or so, don't remember exactly) with only 10 W 
into a 32 m longwire.

 Hi George,
 
 http://hflink.com/olivia
 The most common flavor of Olivia is 500/16 
 and for DXing, you can find it on one of the 
 following USB VFO Dial frequencies:
 7042.5 USB
 7072.5 USB
 10142.5 USB
 14075.65 USB
 14074.65 USB
 14077.65 USB
 18102.65 USB
 
 When Olivia first began, the 1000/32 flavor 
 was much more common, and it is still fairly 
 active in europe and some other parts of the world 
 on these USB VFO Dial Frequencies:
 14105.5 kHz USB 
 14106.5 kHz USB 
 
 For more complete information on Olivia Frequencies 
 and modes please see the website:

 Yes, I was watching Phil - condx are poor between us. The RS ID is very
 sensitive so you did cause Multipsk to switch from PAX2 to PAX when you
 called.

 Thanks for trying.

   All,
  
   I have Multipsk's responder setup as an experimental pseudo
 mailbox
   on
   3598.0 USB. The beacon is running in PAX2 mode and will accept
   connects
   in
   both PAX and PAX2 (Multipsk will switch modes automatically if you
  enable
   your RS ID). The responder also works in PSK63/250 ARQ and 300
 baud
   HF
   Packet.
  
   It does not work like your typical PBBS, but it does allow
 stations
   to
   connect and read the messages that the user posts in the
 responder.
   The
   menu
   system is limited to L for LIST messages and Rx for READ
 message
   number
  
   x.
  
   To connect, switch Multipsk to PAX/PAX2 modes and make sure
 UNPROTO
   is
   clicked. Put your call in the SENDER box and set the DESTINATION
 to
  K2MO.
   Click CONNECT. The system will respond with a greeting and how to
 use
  the
   menu. All of these items are on left just above the waterfall.
  
   PAX is sensitive MFSK mode based on Olivia. Please give it try.
