Most of you on here will by now know my opinion of QRSS and I do seem to be in the minority. Down here in the south there is enough activity at times but it does vary. After sorting out my antenna/tx problems yesterday I promptly had no less than 3 QSOs so I was well pleased. I can never see the point of beaconing in any mode 24/7 and I am sure it puts some people off. Down here many signals are STRONG and it takes up valuable bandwidth, meaning if there are more than say a couple of people who want seperate CW QSOs there ain't much space with 400Hz filters. Like Mal I also lost interest in 136 when it went that way and tend to agree with him that 500k is going the same way. Let us use it for real experimentation rather than one or two people transmitting (probably nowhere near the shack) and the rest just licenced listeners. 73 Dave G3YMC http://www.davesergeant.com
