Re: Calling on 27.275 USB
I know what you mean , the five times I've been out DXing since returning to the hobby I've given a few CQ calls on 27.275 but no reply , in fact nothing local on the mid band at all . Up on the triple5 have made some ground wave contact 30-40 miles.

Re: Calling on 27.275 USB
I got myself a President Grant 2 which does not allow me access to .555.
I can't work out if my wife finds it funny I keep taking to myself or angry that I spent £200 :-)
I won't give up.....
Roger.

Re: Calling on 27.275 USB
Hi Roger, Saturday(23rd) night after 7pm into Sunday morning the Charlie Tango group are running a net on 27.285 USB which also coincides with one run by the Papa Lima group, so should be plenty of stations about.
(info shamelessly lifted from a post by CT104 on their forum )

Re: Calling on 27.275 USB
I've had quite good results on 27275, I haven't been on 11m much recently because of a radio issue (See other thread in rig doctor) but when I called on 27275 for a while, I made a few contacts, there are people out there listening.
Its one of those chicken and egg things, a bit like the forum, if no-one posts then no-one posts So in order for 27275 to work we have to call on there, if everyone just made a few calls now and again, then hopefully it will catch on a bit
