to suggest that we change the suggested frequencies for NAQP SSB on 28
mhz. Our write-ups now suggest 28600 and 28450 for novices. I can't
find any activity on 28600 and when I suggest that for a quick QSY, the
other station always responds with a frequency between 28300 and 28500.
I don't think the 28600 suggested frequency serves a useful function
any more and I doubt that it will be different when the sunspots
improve. Why not just say 28450? 73, John, K4BAI.
