It is the responsibility of every 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.
