<DIV style="FONT: 10pt arial"><B>Subject:</B> [OZAPRS] Love that HF</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>Today I made a 500km round trip to a station north of Orroroo
where my gliding club is operating for a few days. It's a pretty
isolated area - even the mobile phone services give up soon after
Orroroo. I used both HF and VHF APRS - both TT3's running "in
series" from the one GPS, with an IC-706 on HF, and a Yaesu FT-1500 on 2
metres.<BR><BR>The HF track is <A
href="http://aprs.fi/#%21mt=roadmap&z=9&call=a%2FVK5ATN-15&timerange=86400">here</A><BR><BR>The
2 metre SSID was VK5ATN-8 and can be found from the same
page. The digi coverage in that part of the world is very
limited and this result was expected, but HF (30m) worked extremely
well. <BR><BR>My thanks to the HF stations elsewhere who
gated my reports - six stations in all from my quick check.<BR><BR>Much
appreciated :-)<BR><BR>73,<BR>Terry <BR>
