[OZAPRS] HF APRS DATA Overnight

Hi All,

Besides running a HF gateway on 10mtrs I have been experimenting on and
off
with a  HF gateway on 40mtrs for a while now and find that in VK4
10.039Mhz
is not useable here due to strong signals, and a lot of traffic to and
from
the BBS's in VK2.

I find that frequency particularly busy in the afternoon.

My tests have been carried out on 7.036Mhz LSB as that frequency seems to
be
clear here in VK4 most of the time.

Regards,
Des   VK4DMI
