SSB - 7.260MHz, 14.260MHz, 21.360MHz, 24.960MHz, and 28.560MHz (All frequencies will be adjusted to avoid QRM.)
CW - KH6BB, the Battleship Missouri BB63 in Pearl Harbor at 1200 Pacific, will be calling on 28.040 for 10 minutes, then 24.895 for 10 minutes, then 21.040 for 10 minutes
PSK-31 - Look for NB6GC on USS Hornet at thirty minutes after each hour for 15 minutes on the normal PSK frequencies.
USS Hornet, NB6GC, invites other participating ships to attempt to network on 14.305 MHz USB between 2045 UTC and 2115 UTC.
