David -- Thanks for trying. 7.104 MHz is center of waterfall. Try again, maybe conditions will be better. I think maybe I should move down around 7.070 or 7.030, but VE7SUN in British Columbia uses 7.104 on 40M, so I thought I'd stay consistent. I saw some SSB signals around 7.104. Let me know how your tests go. 73, Gil WB5RFQ On Fri, Sep 30, 2011 at 10:18 AM, David Westbrook <dwestbrook@xxxxxxxxx>wrote: > Tried calling from EM93 .. maybe not in range, and lots of noise here. > is 7.104 center or dial?
