10m FM (29MHz) Activity

 Seems that over the last month there has been some good openings on 10metre FM (29MHz), it appears that JA like to use 29.200 MHz FM simplex, as well as the usual 29.600MHz FM simplex. There has also been some VK-Nth America contacts on 29.600MHz FM simplex.

DX Report 5th January 2018

I was out mobile today,  10metre FM and 6metre FM were buzzing, 28.620 Adelaide, 29.640 VK3RHF. and 29.680 presumably VK7 had a vk2 and a vk3 chatting on it, anyway, they were alive and active into Sydney, plus 52.525 FM into VK5, plus locals working interstate on 29.500 FM simplex and from the conversations it had been open on 6m and 10m into ZL solidly in the morning.
