A big rollup this morning. 20 stations at least tuned in, not all could transmit. Several stations could be heard transmitting analog audio so presumably it's rig audio input configuration troubles. One station commented that it would be good if there was a regular broadcast for stations to test with. There used to be a relay of the WIA broadcast from Adelaide in, I think, 700D, perhaps it's time to revive something like that?

There were deep fades on the frequency today but generally decodes were good here.

Graeme VK3GRK from Bendigo participates in a Zoom call where they experiment with digital modes and he said that at times it was hard to distinguish between FreeDV RADE audio and Zoom audio!

Stations seen on the frequency included: VK3TPM, VK2BLQ, VK3UBK, VK3CKY, VK5KVA, VK3KQT, VK3KEZ, VK5KFG, VK3SPX, VK7DIK, VK2DWG, VK3JF, VK6POP, VK2DUX, VK3SRC, VK2KNC, VK3GRK, VK3AG, VK3CRY and VK3BAL.

Not a squeak here in VK6.  Not that I was expecting more at this time of the day (0800), but you never never know...

cheers

Today was my first attempt at DV. Managed to decode the tail end of the net. 
Need to fix my antenna before I can try tx on 40m  unfortunately.
