Brian, Join the Low Band Chat at ON4KST where you can get a good real time notification who is using which freqency for skeds or weak signal work. You can also let everyone know where you are as you may require to grab some signal reports.

Since I cannot hear as well as most of you, I run the risk of calling CQ on what appears to be a clear frequency and QRMing a DX station calling CQ or disrupting an ongoing QSO. Any suggestions on how to prevent? To minimize any potential issues, I usually select a splinter frequency (i.e., 1820.5, 1823.5, etc), send "QRL?", and listen for a while. 73 Brian, KD6NRP _______________________________________________ UR RST IS ... ... ..9 QSB QSB - hw?
