IN the mornings here in the U.S. (eastern time) that frequency is the intercontinental amateur traffic net. tHroughout the rest of the day it is the maritime mobile service net. tHat frequency holds nets to serve folks at sea, deployed service personnel missionaries etc. I'm a net control there about four hours a week. It's a good place to make a sked with somebody if you're on hf, then move off freq to complete your qso once you've gotten together. 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
