They're on the same freq. MOstly 40 is too short for that. from Iowa I could sometimes hear eastcars on my vertical. I used to be an ncs for Midcars on 7258 when I lived back there. I get down to 40 for traffic nets once in awhile and sometimes hang on southcars a bit of a morning or 7290 net but usually I'm on the maritime mobile service net on 14.300. Always glad to move off with somebody for a little ol' ragchew when I'm not ncs. 73 de nf5b Richard Webb Electric Spider Productions "They that can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety." --- Benjamin Franklin, NOvember 1755 from the Historical review of Pennsylvania
