This was pulled from the TARPN email
list and I thought it was interesting.
What have you guys had success with for
fixed links?

Subject: [tarpn] Frequencies and Terrain
For what its worth I live in east Tennessee,
LOS communications are challenging at
best. Yet we have had great success using
3, and 7 meg frequencies via low AGL
hamstick dipole and qrp rigs. The
combination of ground wave and acute
angle skip allows for really good coverage.
Note that the bandwidth is tiny, but fixed
frequency node plans its not hard to
manage Using pi BPQ scaning allows for
mesh style node points I have links from my
station, one at 4 miles, 14 miles and a 500
mile HF Pactor, Packet and Vara are
typically used
