If I forgot to mention someone, let me know, please.
- UK LF operators hold nets on Saturday - on 3720 kHz at 09:00Z, and
1973 kHz at 19:00Z.
- Australia, New Zealand, Papua New Guinea - Amateurs in this region
have been looking to longwave frequencies for some time. Hams in
Papua New Guinea and New Zealand have had operating privileges on
160 - 190 kHz. Australians have been able to operate by special permit.
Contacts over distances of more than 150 miles have been made between
ZL hams and experimental licensees in VK. One-way reception of ZL
stations at 1100 km has also been reported in Australia. WIA is asking
for the entire 100 - 200 kHz octave to be allocated to amateurs.
