APRS is alive and well today.  This afternoon I have had both ZL3RX-4 and
VK7HS-3 up.

I omitted to say in my earlier post that I am Rx only on HF at present.  I
have a get-round-to-it project to build an isolated ground interface to
allow me to transmit on HF.

All HF traffic heard with a sensible path is retransmitted by me on VHF
via
a data repeater (duplex) to ZL1AMW who has the i-gate connection.

Noel, ZL3GR.

Is there a list of people and their areas of expertise, for those people
starting out in ham radio and looking for mentors ?

Thats interesting Noel.. The times in the morning would be around sunrise
at
the moment.. We are almost right on the shortest day of the year. The sun
seemed to appear at about 0700 local here today and seemed late compared
to
last week.

Likely you heard VK7HSE's beacons on the Grey line. Thats what its
called..
The Grey line neither daylight or nighttime. Its an interesting time of
the
day for propagation on the lower frequencies. You can go huge distances on
160m with Grey line propagation. Ive heard ZLs on 40m voice quite strong
around sun down in the mobile. Both Sun rise and Sunset seem to have a
relavance but alot of web pages seem to talk about sun rise..

If you get a programe like Nova32 or similar satellite tracking programes
you can track the grey line as it moves between VK and ZL. Maybee its a
good
time of year to experiment a bit with this on 40 and 80m ..

years, usually sitting on 30m.  However not long ago I added a second
dipole
allowing a dual watch.

and 40m (tuned to 7.036.00 LSB), both with TNCs with 1600/1800 tone pairs.
