They use the radios in all of their Antarctic Bases. It seems the issue is that when they use a sloping wire antenna in the Antarctic, the radios tend to reset to Upper Side Band and 3 MHz frequency. This does not happen in Australia. I know that the humidity levels are extremely low in Antarctica and I suspect that static build-up on the sloping wire antenna is the problem. This is a serious problem because it is causing a loss of communications to the outposts who don’t realise that the radio has reset itself.
How to solve their problem so that when the radio does reset it will be on Lower 4 MHz Side Band which is the Antarctic Division's standard radio frequency.
