which appears to have caused at least one packeteer to question my own
question which was "What frequency is it on" ?
To assume we all know is daft.
What if I was a holiday maker in the Canary Islands in the next week and
I wanted to use it ?
I'd need to know the frequency wouldn't I.
What if I was an HF'er on 29Mhz FM - which EA8EE also used his IRLP
node on in the past and wanted to use it via sporadic E (which is now
the start of the season).
Erm...I'd need to know the *frequency* wouldn't I !
I was then told "well look up EA8EE on the internet".
No why the heck should I - he's just told the world in a packet message
his node is active, so why can't he tell us what the frequency is by
packet too ?
Is it a secret ?
Y'know I have a great deal of difficulty beleiving that anything is
actually *radio* if it doesn't a frequency to operate on.
Or are there any tranceivers on the market that don't need frequencies
any more ? (clever blokes those Japanese) ;-)
