Hi Dave..
What frequency are you listening on 20m..
My Buxton:GB7DAD-8 node is monitoring 14.112.8MHz for some time..
But it doesn't have to stay there..
Cheers..

Hi Dave,

Also on .800, but on the other side of the hills to you.

Your call was spotted by a station in Manchester last night....

I've had a couple more requests for copies of the UI-View installation
program, and a couple of non-UK stations asking if they can have a copy. So
far, I've been able to persuade the non-UK stations that I'm not able to
send them a copy until Roger is happy that most of the major problems are
sorted, but I think there is a level of interest beyond our own 'patch' in
trying the program out.

Just to clarify this point - The reason for the restriction on
circulation is that, at the moment, I'm not prepared to even attempt to
support UI-View users outside the UK. I simply haven't got the time.

Letting it circulate overseas but refusing to support it is not an
option, because that would result in global slagging off of both me and
the program. Slagging off within the UK is quite sufficient... ;-)

Well, quite an active couple of weeks, one way or another, from here. The
withdrawal of the 12.5kHz spaced frequency proposal, the allocation of
144.800MHz and, just as a few people start trying 800 out, a reasonable lift
to show what can be achieved with a nice clear frequency.

However, as I type this, I seem to be the only 'local' who is leaving their
rig monitoring 800 for most of the time, so I guess that it will take a
while for the frequency to become well used.

I've not seen any APRS activity on 800 from around here yet, but then many
of the stations, in this area, who were experimenting with APRS seem to be
using UI-View now.

Debate on the BBSs seems to be raging anew, however, many of the arguments
seem to relate to problems with other systems or programs, like BPQ and/or
AGW, rather than UI-View as such. The trouble is that, possibly for the
vast majority of readers, because the debate is addressed to UIVIEW the
assumption is sometimes made that it is the fault of that particular
program. Most problems seem, to me, to boil down to either a setting that a
particular person has chosen in an associated program, or is inherent in the
packet system in particular areas of the country. No doubt when UI-View is
no longer flavour of the month, then the debate will move onto other topics.....

I'm still leaving the HF port monitoring on 20M and getting quite a
collection of stations from around the world plotted. I've not had any
response to my frequent pleas for others to try HF, or even other VHF bands
than the 'normal' ones. But I guess it is early days yet. I would like to
see what could be done with slower speed, narrower band, packet on, say, 4M
or 6M. One of the 'problems' with experimenting with propagation on HF with
packet is that unattended operation is not allowed in the UK. However, I do
leave the HF side running for as long as I can, but occasionally like to use
the HF rig for other modes as well. HI!

I wonder what is happening in other areas of the country?

Thanks John,

Yes, managed quite a chat with a station in the Manchester area. Hope to
see you on 800 soon?

Hello Peter,

I tend to leave my HF port on 14.105 MHz as that's where the Canadian/US
stations seem to have a net frequency. But I also try 14.108 (or 14.109)
MHz for the Italian BBS IK0MIL and also have had some success on 14.097 MHz.

Main problem, at the moment, is QRM from next doors TV (!!) and the TVI I
cause to it......

Will try to alter the antenna a bit to see if I can reduce both problems.

I'll take a listen to 'your' frequency, but I think I may have stumbled
across it before now. Seem to remember seeing some packets addressed to a
'GB' call somewhere along the line.

Cheers de Dave (G0DJA)
