You might want to contact these people for info: http://gx4crc.com/imd-stations/ A quick look around their web site just says 160 to 10 meters. Title: Re: International Marconi Day. Post by: Steve - K4HX on April 12, 2017, 06:14:15 PM I've worked the Brit station in recent years. All FB.

Post by: Knightt150 on April 13, 2017, 10:52:47 PM It is obvious that from central Ill you would use 10/15/or 20 meters there is a lot of frequency's to choose from, you could look all day and never find a station. Steve can you remember what freq you worked the Brit station on, he will more than likely be near that freq this year.
John W9BFO Title: Re: International Marconi Day. Post by: Pete, WA2CWA on April 14, 2017, 03:24:09 AM I checked 3 of the listed participating stations and none of them listed a specific frequency. AMfone - Dedicated to Amplitude Modulation on the Amateur Radio Bands
http://gx4crc.com/imd-stations/ Obviously, that makes sense since no one owns a frequency and they all can't be on the same frequency. On the day of participation, check the various DX clusters to see if a particular frequency and station have been spotted. Like chasing DX the old fashion way, looked for lots of activity and/or pileups on a frequency. |
