The dual frequency tones will be 137.7890 (hi) and 137.7886 (lo) kHz. These frequencies are 1 Hz lower than those used for the previous test, and give better separation from Loran lines received in Europe. The ZL6QH transmission has the format QQQQ... sent as hi, hi, lo, hi, gap, with 120 second dot length, 0.4 Hz shift. It takes 10 minutes to send each Q. Timing will be such that the first element of a Q will be on or close to the hour If the LF path is open to VE7, a cross-band LF/HF contact could be attempted with VE7SL, with the likes of 20 second dot length, around 1500 UTC, after which 120 second dot sending would resume. 73, Bob ZL2CA
