A while ago a group of local hams near Copenhagen initiated the FM.Simplex Ring. in order to create some activity outside repeater traffic only.
Excellemt initiative!.
We met every Friday evening at 1900 local time.
Starting (at the moment on 433.225 (this may change because of interference from ISM devices) for 20 minutes.
Then 1920 on 51.510
1940 on 70.425
Finally ( until yesterday) 145.225 from 2000 onwards.
For a while there has been sporadic activity at 2100 on 1297.500
From now on it's an "official" part of the "ring" to operate at 2100 on 1297.500. At the first official one on this frequency we were 10 atations participating.
I could hear 9 of them and make 2-way with 8 of them. That is an excellent start.
Most of the day when I am at home, I have a radio receiving on 1297.5, so if you are less than a few hundred km from Copenhagen, and detect enhanced propagation, try a call. Someone in he area might hear you and respond.
