I recently purchased a second-hand Hal DXP-38 which works rather well
on RTTY as I discovered in the CQWW RTTY contest recently but I really
do want to find some live person to person Clover activity.
Is there any? Where exactly? I read comments on eham.net from last
year saying some people hang out on 14.063 5 LSB but is that not, for
the US hams with their obligatory band plan, outside of the digital
segment?
It seemed to me that Clover was a somewhat elegant mode of digital
comms not least with it being, effectively, fully duplex. I appreciate
that PC-generated digital modes are increasingly popular but there
must surely be a lot of Hal equipment out there?

Dominic,
Look for a U.S. Ham Hank Oredson W0RLI. He was very active with CLOVER,
along with Dennis Ely W5XO, and a pretty good bunch of Hams around the
U.S.
I know there are many more, but Hank is sometimes on this Group.

Hi Paul!

The CLOVER BBS forwarding operations pretty much shut
down a couple years ago in favor of PACTOR II. I still have
some controllers, both P38 and PCI-4000, but have not had
them on air for a long time now. I tune the digital segments
from time to time, but no longer hear any CLOVER sigs.
