We are using the International 30mx frequency

As for 40mx I believe the ZL's settled on 7036, which matched the VK4's
The US use 7085 I think and the Europeans use 7035.
To date we have had enough FUN with 30mx to not get too far down the track
on
40mx. Of course I do look forward to have a 40mx frequency to use also.
