Have been testing 145.700 but nothing as yet from Hervey Bay. 146.800 is the local Bundy repeater so give that one a miss.
Not set up to Rx on 90 mhz very well. Will post if anything happens.

Just to add Len, I am in QG64KO and have just had my 1296 repaired. Antenna is a grid pack and 20 watts out. I am low 10 mts but a good take off south. Just need to get things up in the air, working on the problem. Health problem at the moment but should be hot to go by Christmas. The path to Brisba...

Thanks for the info John.

Do you have any more details on this to share around.

What a gentleman of the 52 MHz pile ups to JA as I remember this man, VK4JH Always courtesy and understanding of the JA stations that needed to work him or just repeat contacts, Hi Joe still on 6. I will miss the many one on one conversations we had about 6 mts and conditions to the north. I lived 2...

Nothing here Leigh. I am up early and the radio sits on 146.800. This gives me B/berg FK8 Nth/NSW (never worked from home) and NZ. Have been some rock crushing openings from B/berg but no FK8 .
Thanks for the posting.

Good for both dates Doug 1296 only.

I also agree with VK5PJ Peter’s idea of naming of VK6RWG beacon. Also Scott’s VK4CZ noble thoughts of tipping in a few BD if required, count me in on that idea. Matt’s VK2DAG summer field day, a fantastic idea. VK6 have a beacon and the rest of VK remembers this man with this field day, how good is ...

I do remember this. I and had a copy of some notes he sent around at the time on 144 Mhz to JA. From memory he would scan the Bell pocket pagers freq, they were close to 144 mhz. So that would be a start, BUT who uses pocket pagers any more :?: . Would like to see more info on this subject matter. K...

Do I owe you money? Have I slept with your wife? If not, I'd love to know what your issue is . Richard, Richard, Richard, what are we going to do with you. I take offence the this type of posting and to VK4OX. We can all post our vews on amateur radio in a nice way, but you have an obession with yo...

When hearing the VK4 beacon feel free to SMS me 6pm to 6am, example (vk5 open). Phone is in the bedroom (for the 5.30 alarm) and I will get up. 0411 886 458 lock and load.
Please no hoax calls, work 12 hours a day, so sleep is needed .
Kind regards

Good evening Adrian VK5AW
My WSPR programme advise is RX 144.489 and TX 144.490409. That is the WSPR programme and not WSPR in WSJT7. I have not had a RX report on it yet, so it's a very quiet wisper.
Regards VK4KSY

Thanks for the report Leigh.
As we head into the solar cycle this could give us good leads to whats happening and where to look.
If you have time a once a month report would be a good read.
Keep up the good work .

Good evening Lou If you have no luck with this I am thinking the VIC police may have some of these vehicles as undercover vehicles. In Brisbane there is a company that fits out all vehicles for the police department and other services. I won’t go any further into that. If you can look into what comp...

Will listen when not operating to this mode. It is has a lot of promise for things to happen, understanding parths and times. Good luck all.

Hi Andy.
When I lived in Townsville NQ VK4RO said the best path was over the north pole. For what is't worth. That was in the 80's

Vk4yeh I operated 432.150 and purchased an ft-7900 Yaesu and a new vertical antenna to cater for f calls on 439.000 FM for the 24 hr operation, and there were ZIP F calls. I did make a few contacts on 439.000. VK4WIE location was west Mt Cotton at 135 mts . Fm ran all the time with no crossover from...
