<DIV>Hi Graeme,</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>The two centre frequencies are 1430 Hz apart so the APRS activity is not
disturbed by all the connected mode activity from the PMSs, KA-nodes, BPQ-nodes
and the BBS.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Cheers,</DIV>
<DIV>Gerard - VK2IO</DIV></DIV>

<DIV>Hi Josh,</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Checked the IGate log here and you're not in it yet. The path would be
via ground wave so it would help to not be in an RF hole. NVIS propagation is
limited at the moment.</DIV>
<DIV>Beacon rate here is once per hour with two packets in the beacon.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>For testing on receive, tune to 7047.17 kHz where there are many beacons
and a lot of packet activity from several stations in VK2 and one in VK4. My
IGate operates there too.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Graeme, the HF Gateway Table on the <A
href="http://aprs.net.au/hf/hf-gateways/" target=_blank>aprs.net.au</A> site
is out of date.</DIV>
<DIV>The most current one is in the archive <A
href="https://web.archive.org/web/20161029215543/http://aprs.net.au/hf/hf-gateways/"
target=_blank>here</A> and it has the correct frequencies.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Cheers,</DIV>
<DIV>Gerard - VK2IO</DIV></DIV>
