Our Bandplan
A few notes on our operation plans:
- Split operation will be the process for all the bands/modes. Operators will announce split range often; normally, we will be listening "up".
- We will dedicate some time to listen in the US General bands on 20 and 40 phone.
That will be announced and likely "spotted" quickly as well.
- Propagation paths to Asia, VK/ZL, Oceania are difficult and short time-wise. During these band openings, please allow us to operate with priority to these areas.
- FT8 will be Fox/Hound mode.
