7045, 3720 kHz - Please keep clear.

I found the following on Southgate ARC's news site.
The full story including a email from CO2KK is available at the source for the above.
http://www.southgatearc.org/news/january2010/earthquake_net_frequencies.htm
All radio amateurs are requested to keep 7045 kHz and 3720 kHz clear for possible emergency traffic related to today's major earthquake in Haiti.
International Amateur Radio Union (IARU) Region II Area C Emergency Coordinator Arnie Coro, CO2KK, reports that as of 0245 UTC on January 13, nothing had been heard from radio amateurs in Haiti, but that the above frequencies were being kept active in case any Haitian hams manage to get on the air, and in case of other related events in surrounding areas, including aftershocks and a possible tsunami.

From Southgates site....
Father John Henault, HH6JH, in Port-au-Prince, made contact late Wednesday morning with the Intercontinental Assistance and Traffic Net (IATN) on 14.300 MHz, the IARU Global Centre of Activity frequency for emergency communications.
The following frequencies are in use for earthquake-related traffic and should be kept clear unless you are able to provide requested assistance:
14300 (IATN), 14265 (SATERN); 7045 (IARU Region II) and 3720 (IARU Region II) kHz.
Additional frequencies may be activated on different bands at different times of day, so be sure to listen carefully before transmitting to make sure you are not interfering with emergency traffic.

Bloody typical, an Italian Station 1 kHz off one of the 20 meter emergency frequencies 
All we need now is a contest station on one of the frequencies & all of our expectations will have been met.

There was a YL IT contest station running CQ Contest this morning spot on 7045.
I just put the radio on 7045, theres sounds like an EA calling CQ and someone is telling him to QSY
