30 GhostNet ALE Frequency List If you would like to verify your codeplug, or make sure that you have input all channels correctly, below is a screenshot of the channels as they are set up in the codeplug file. Channel Name Frequency (USB) 01GHOSTNET 3598.5 kHz 02GHOSTNET 7104.5 kHz 03GHOSTNET 7106.5 kHz 04GHOSTNET 7108.5 kHz 05GHOSTNET 10128.5 kHz 06GHOSTNET 14111.5 kHz 07GHOSTNET 14113.5 kHz 08GHOSTNET 14115.5 kHz 09GHOSTNET 18108.5 kHz 10GHOSTNET 28108.5 kHz Note: All of the frequencies are intended for data modes, not voice transmissions. This is for sever- al reasons mostly pertaining to the efficiency of data transmissions. ALE, by its very nature, is not necessarily a low-power mode. Thus, smaller QRP transceiv- ers will have trouble maintaining strong links with other ALE stations. By restricting ourselves to data-only modes during ALE nets, we can squeeze as much efficiency out of the system as possible. In other words, you will probably not be able to use Ion2G to make a voice phone call using a QRP radio. However, sending a text might be more feasible. Developments are being made in the world of ALE, and as technology improves more reliable links can be established by equip- ment that today is less than desirable. This is a work-in-progress, so some problems may be reported with these freqs. Expect future updates to address any concerns that may be present with this rather new communications tool. ALE has been around for a long time, but as more people begin to use it, more problems be- come exposed. Consider these freqs to be a sort of Early Alpha version as we begin to implement ALE more heavily. WORKING WORKING DRAFT DRAFT
