These frequencies are a guide.

We will nearly always work split frequency and will regularly announce the frequencies on which we are listening. We will only make contacts on our transmitting frequency during the last few days of the DXpedition if the pile-ups have disappeared.

Typically, a DXpedition SSB station transmitting on 14195kHz will listen up in the range 14200 - 14220kHz. If we find we are operating on the same transmit frequency as another DXpedition we will move down around 5 kHz typically to 14190kHz and we will then listen down say between 14165 and 14185kHz so as to split the pile ups and avoid confusion.

Listen to the operator carefully. Each has been briefed to give the 3B9C callsign at least after every two QSOs and to announce the listening frequencies every five QSO's.

We will not work by numbers; we feel that with good ears and equipment this is quite unnecessary.
