<br>
that is probably Adelaide<br>
<br>
you want to keep highest freq possible to minimize frequency dependent QSB<br>
<br>
running predictions using ASAPS7...from Adelaide.<br>
<br>
Now if you start at 2030UT , that will be about the earliest 10 MHz will work. 20UT in the north, 21UT n the south<br>
<br>
It should be good until at least 0830UT in the south  maybe 0930UT in the north.<br>
<br>
Between 09Z and 21Z, IE the dark, and early morning you probably want to change over to 7 MHz.<br>
<br>
If you want a 3rd freq switch, suggest changing to 20m  from 0 UT until 07UT.<br>

Hello<br>
<br>
I am planning to drive from Brisbane to Melbourne this December<br>
<br>
With HF APRS on board<br>
<br>
I think 10.147 MHz will be the go<br>
