The frequencies in the POTA and WRL spots round off at 2 decimal places instead of 3 or 5.

Hello @NF0P

Instead of it being 14.24500, it should be 14.245. That’s what you mean?

Thanks! 73’

@WP3C No, actually it’s the other way. Instead of 14.234 it’s 14.23, and instead of 14.246 it’s 14.25.

The frequencies in the US are:

10M: 28.000 - 29.700  
12M: 24.890 - 24.990  
15M: 21.000 - 21.450  
etc, etc

As I can see you are rounding it, please can you send me where can I find that info? I had never heard about this. Thanks!

This is a comparison of the POTA spot and the spot on WRL. See that the POTA spot frequency is 14.304 (as it should be) and the WRL spot frequency is 14.30 (rounded off too short)

@WP3C I believe my post earlier may have been a bit confusing. The frequencies SHOULD be 14.304, 28.367, etc. Instead, on WRL, these frequencies appear as 14.30, 28.37, etc. Hopefully this makes sense?

Glad to help. Also, are the spots supposed to auto update? It’s not consistently updating on my system.

We dont have auto update now, but we do have a “refresh spots” button that will refresh and update all the spots.

But I’m going to add it so it can be implemented in the future 😉

Thanks

The frequency has been fixed, but I will recommend adding a period after the 6. For example 21.046.5
