Pactor is the preferred mode for HF digital operations since its ability to get through interference is well known. The HF frequencies we use are 3.620 LSB with 7.105 MHz LSB as the alternate. This does not mean that you must setup on 145.73 MHz. A revitalized 441.050 MHz network using 9600bps now links Richmond and Tidewater. 51.28 MHz is going to be tested for 9600bps forwarding around the state.
All frequencies have cross-links to each other.
Traffic forwarding should be kept off 145.73 MHz frequency whenever possible. These stations should be located wherever the DEC and EC think they will be most useful. They should not be at the same location. A full BBS type operation is not necessary . Terminal and host mode programs will work fine.
