Hello chatters! We know it gets pretty busy lately on 20M and 40M, and we see you are looking for calling frequencies on other bands.
20M and 40M will remain our primary Day/Night QRGs, but we are happy to share with you our new calling QRG plan.
This plan took into consideration the IARU1/2/3 band plans.
The upcoming version of VarAC will including these frequencies. But you can update your VarAC_frequencies.conf file now:
14.105.000 - Primary day time
7.105.000 - Primary night time
3.595.000
10.133.000
18.106.000
21.105.000
24.927.000
28.105.000
50.330.00073s!
Irad and the VarAC Team.
Is anyone using a frequency on 160m? I am currently set up on 1830 kHz usb.
I did some diggint. 1830 is not ok for IARU 2. 1850 is a good place for all IARUs. I will add this to future versions.
Irad,
Has anyone considered adding a few additional (preferred) QSY frequencies on 40m or 20m for calling CQ, rather than using Calling Frequencies, which evoke
time-out popup? (kinda like a VARAC Band-plan).
As an example:
7105.750, 7106.50, 7107.25, 7108.00
14105.750, 14106.50, 14107.25, 14108.00
All assume no existing traffic!
It will be interesting to see if CQ Calls get noticed?
Thoughts?

Hey Terry. Next version will alow FREE FORM QSY - meaning you can pick any freq you like and invite your partner to QSY to that freq.
