INFORMATION ABOUT
AMATEUR RADIO ALE CHANNELS
|
|
Note 1
|
All Amateur Radio ALE
channels use
"USB" Upper
SideBand (including frequencies below 10MHz). USB conforms to International Standards for Automatic Link Establishment, and
enables interoperability. |
Note 2
|
This ALE channel list is in everyday use in the Amateur Radio service, for normal communication internationally, regionally, and locally. ALE channels
are frequency coordinated internationally, and subject to the different rules,
regulations, and bandplans of
the region and local country of operation. There is commonly an ALE signal active on the air, every minute of every day on these frequencies. It is the responsibility
of every ALE operator to maintain the highest standards
for all transmissions. Some channels
or modes in the list may not
be available in every country. The HF spectrum is a shared resource,
so there is no guarantee that a channel is clear in a local area or
region. There are many channel frequencies; please select a different channel as needed whenever one is occupied.
|
Note 3
|
Amateur ALE standards:
1. ALE System= MIL-STD 188-141 ; FED-1045
(8FSK - 2kHz Bandwidth)
2. If repetitive sounding, transmit soundings only on the Primary Data Channels or Pilot Channels for your IARU Region.
3. Calling or sounding transmission: Maximum Duration = 22
seconds.
4.
Sounding
Interval= 60 Minutes (or more) for same channel.
5. When sounding, always use "This Was Sound" (TWS).
6. Scan
rate: 1 channel per second when scanning 10 channels or less.
7. Scan rate: 2
ch/sec or faster when scanning 11 channels or more.
8. Digital Modes Centre Audio Frequency = 1625Hz
9. Short text messaging standard = AMD .
10.
Always transmit "CLEAR LINK" after ALL CALLS, QSOs, and LINKS!
11. For manual text QSOs, operators should QSY off the Primary Data Channel.
|
| Note 4 |

Note 5*
|
The
5MHz channels' use and frequencies may vary in each country. Although
5MHz ALE transmissions are authorised in some countries,
USA does not yet allow it on 5MHz. Therefore, operators in USA may
receive
monitor the 5MHz channels, but care should be taken to lock out the transmitter from
making ALE transmissions (except in case of an Emergency). See your country's rules.
