Hi all,

 

This is a reminder that this month's FreeDV Activity Day is this coming weekend. (As a reminder, Activity Day takes place on the third weekend of every month.) This event will bring together people interested in HF digital voice on the air for conversation and fun. Contacts using the official application as well as ezDV, the SM1000 handheld microphone and other supporting devices and applications are welcome.

 

Event time: 12AM Pacific time (0800Z) on February 21 to 11:59PM on February 22 (0759Z on February 23) (48 hours).

 

Suggested frequencies:

160 meters: 1.997 MHz

80 meters: 3.625, 3.643, 3.693, 3.697 MHz or 3.803 MHz

60 meters (in countries where allowed): 5.4035 MHz or 5.3665 MHz

40 meters: 7.177 MHz or 7.197 MHz

20 meters: 14.236 MHz or 14.240 MHz

17 meters: 18.118 MHz

15 meters: 21.313 MHz

12 meters: 24.933 MHz

10 meters: 28.330 or 28.720 MHz

10 GHz (for those in range of QO-100): 10489.640 MHz

 

(Note that LSB/DIGL is used below 10MHz as per current convention for voice modes, USB/DIGU otherwise. 60 meters is of course USB/DIGU only.)

 

As this isn't a contest, there's no pressure to make contacts or send logs, but you can always confirm QSOs via the usual means if you'd like (LoTW, eQSL, QRZ, etc.) Enabling reporting (PSK Reporter and FreeDV Reporter) in the FreeDV application and joining FreeDV Reporter and Discord are recommended, however, so others can see that you're on the air and hearing them

Feel free to spread this far and wide among your local ham friends and groups! :) Let me know if you have any questions about the event and definitely

 

 

Thanks,
