Hi all
Recently 1827 or thereabouts has been the favourite freq for 2 well known and needed operations. Sticking it out on one freq for the duration of a whole DXped can be a problem for those wanting to work it. Almost all DXer's have one freq or another on any given band that they can't hear on due to local interference. Here in North London it's the HUGE intermod that appears from 400 & 125kw BC stations mixing at a site (o/s of my rx) 5 miles from here (Brookmans Park). I can hear that across my Orion at a minimum of 500hz up and down of 27. I know that in the US there are problems with certain freq's and would urge all to think about the implications (for those wanting to work them) of DXped's using the same freq for a whole 2 weeks or whatever duration. Thanks for your time. 73's Kerry - G0LCS
