    Freebanding for Beginners

    I think what he is saying is: "it's not free" to use. Although people have been using those area's for years, they have never been "free" in the eyes of the FCC.

    Channels to check for dxing into Europe.

    Discovered a new one yesterday, lots of chatter on 27.300 usb, at which I talked to a mobile in Japan. I then remembered that I had also talked to a station from there back in Feb., - so that's one that can be listened for in the Asia area.

    Channels to check for dxing into Europe.

    Humm - I wonder how it is that I have talked to several stations in S. Africa on 27 through the last cycle and have had several people tell me from there, that 27 is their call channel? But I guess it doesn't really matter, I'll just carry on talking to them in S. Africa on 27..........

    Channels to check for dxing into Europe.

    I do believe that 27 USB is a S. Africa call channel and that ch 28 USB might be for the UK.
